  1. Revenge for the FA Cup? McLoughlin to score the winner? Mauled by the Tigers? Two wins in 15? Which is it to be? 🤔
  2. This rule is aimed at new owners. The more they pay to the unsecured creditors of the club, this reduces the chance of a further points deduction. A new owner may of course think “F*ck that…” & swallow the additional points deduction to protect their cash reserves. https://www.danielgeey.com/done-deal-blog/football-league-insolvency-regulation-changes-a-brief-summary
  3. They’re bored of their hobby & have set a ceiling on spending.
  4. Chansiri says “Hi!” 😉
  5. Technical point - but we only end up in Admin if Venky’s decide not to sell, not to fund & the UK directors of the club fear personal liability under insolvency law & to avoid the risk, they therefore call in the administrators. That’s why the departure of SW & a lack of CEO is intriguing. Who would actually do this? Suhail can’t if he isn’t a director. That would be perverse in the extreme, it would mean Venky’s would rather get nothing for the club than even a token bid of £1. I think we can rule out administration for now.
  6. The BRFCS Player of the Match in association with SUITS ME - the official Rovers debit card provider - is ADAM FORSHAW...⚪🔵 MOTM template.mp4
  7. I’m always happy to debate on here - in hopefully a grown up manner. The last 4000 Holes podcast for instance, I said I’d make the case against the boycott because I thought it was a good intellectual exercise to rehearse how the boycott might be challenged by others with different viewpoints. I’m not remotely bothered by what is posted elsewhere TBH as there’s bugger all I can do about that - but if someone is civil on here & wants a debate I think that’s what this forum is for…& I’m happy to engage at face value 🤷‍♂️
  8. If they own the business then all the money that business generates belongs to the shareholders of that business (net of any tax etc) for them to use as they deem fit. If the shareholders (owners) then elect not to provide additional share capital/directors loans because income (& cash flow) has increased (albeit temporarily) then that is their choice. Ultimately, all the money in Blackburn Rovers Football & Athletic Ltd “belongs” to the shareholders…i.e. ultimately Venky’s.
  9. They formed because they felt that BRFCS wouldn’t let them have what they defined as free speech & post whatever they wanted & they grew tired of the bans when they overstepped what we considered to be acceptable. As a consequence this site is now persona non grata over there & anyone quoting it, referencing it or sharing it is seriously frowned upon. We are all Rovers supporters though and it serves to indicate that there is a broad breadth of opinion over what the club should aspire to & the role of a supporter. It’s analogous to the growth of the increasingly binary mindset across society at large IMO.
  10. 1. Who buys football clubs? Ask fans of Wrexham, Birmingham, Reading, Bolton, Wigan etc 2. You dont go into Admin because you breach FFP - you go into Admin when you stop funding it through choice or via the bank if you’ve mortgaged the club to the hilt 3. Venky’s sacked Allardyce because he wouldn’t kowtow to certain “advisors” 4. If Suhail carries on cutting costs, what we will have is the equivalent of “some chancer with 1% of Venky’s wealth who downsizes us to League One (or lower)
  11. The lad Leaburn at Charlton - everything we need.
  12. *puts Genesis album on* #OneForTheTeenagers
  13. https://www.watfordfc.com/news/2026/january/22/opposition-view-blackburn-away/
  14. Waaay too much I’d say…I love JDT but…😆
  15. We have had exposure on Radio Lancs, TalkSport & the Daily Mail in the last 24 hours…I’d say that was a decent effort all round TBH. Raising the profile of our case needs “little & often” activities I think to build momentum.
  16. I spoke with Ian for at least 45 minutes, he drove to Darwen to interview others, I’m confident he didn't then ask AI to generate the article FWIW.
  17. I read this one… https://smry.ai/proxy?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.dailymail.co.uk%2Fsport%2Farticle-15491161%2FInside-Blackburn-Rovers-slow-agonising-demise-Venkys-reviled-owners-banned-local-paper-turned-fans-meddling-India-costing-Rovers-transfer-market-supporters-boycotting-Ewood-Park.html I think it’s worth noting that some of the apparently out of context quotes are actually captions for photographs…
  18. A few quotes in there are mine so I’m not sure what to make of this judgement…😆
  19. https://shows.acast.com/efl-all-access/episodes/efl-fan-network-2526-episode-25-protests-at-blackburn-feudin
  20. I did chat with t’other IH to provide some background…😉
  21. Sunderland at home, Boxing Day 2024 perhaps?
  22. We need to fix the voting so he can only give Tronstad a 10…I’m sure it could be done…😆
  23. I’ve been visiting this thread for hours now…it’s part of my ritual & without it I’d feel lost…
