  1. We all agree on those sentiments, but who is going to sack them? Pasha and Gestede are running the show. The only people above them are Venkys and they don't give a toss about what is going on in this club. Desperate times.
  2. Nor can billionaire owners fix the drainage problems which have been ongoing for years and years.
  3. It was Brighton I think. Willie Irvine played for the opposition and scored.
  4. Received my Yuki T shirt. Excellent quality and perfect fit. Many thanks.
  5. Thanks Ian. I'll pm my details later today. Keep up the good work!!!!
  6. Surely signing Fleck would be contrary to Venkys supposed policy of buying younger players to develop. I wouldn't touch him with a barge pole.
  7. Walter Joyce was another we signed from Burnley
  8. Apparently, Leeds owe £190m in unpaid transfer fees, a legacy of the previous regime. I suspect they will be selling a lot of players in the close season, but any clubs looking at their "big 4" forwards today might think twice. How on earth did Summerville get player of the year over Sammie?
  9. Yes. I suggested for pre match entertainment Waggott and Pasha in the stocks, so we hurl rotten fruit at them. And to improve the matchday atmosphere, occasional visits by the owners so we could shout abuse at them.
  10. A thoughtful and extremely well written piece. As one of the same generation (only 60 years supporting in my case) I agree entirely with the sentiments put forward. Well said, Fred! Loved the T.S. Eliot quote.
  11. Yes, I did. The site did not recognise my password (I have not changed it since the last reset of the site). So I clicked on "forgot password" and was directed to another page, asked to input my email address, clicked on the link and was told that I would receive an email with a code. Did so, and lo and behold, No email appeared. Amateurish once again. Does anything at this club work properly or in a professional manner?
  12. The problem is that we do not have players capable of scoring (Sammie aside). The only player shooting yesterday was Ayari, everyone else prefers to pass sideways. Even when we were completely on top yesterday I never thought we would nick a goal. I don't doubt that JE had the ambition to score, he simply does not have the ammunition. If we survive this season, the owners will not sanction the signing of any experienced forwards. We'll be relying on Vale and Leonard next season, neither of whom are the next Simon Garner. After 60 years of supporting my club, I despair for the future under these incompetent fools. They are the worst owners in football, aided and abetted by the charlatans SW and Suhail.
  13. Haven't seen any comment from Waggott since the adjournment of the case. I thought he might have, especially after the LET article this week.
  14. Anyone know what's happened to Harry Leonard??
  15. Vale scores again for Motherwell.
  16. Disappointed that Lowe and Benson will still be around. I presume that Eustace was told that he had to accept them as part of his coaching staff if he wanted the job. If Lowe is in the dugout tomorrow I hope he gets himself a decent haircut in the morning, as the cameras are likely to be on him and Johnson.
  17. Exactly the same for me. Trying to get my own seat, but gave it up after three attempts with different cards.
  18. An interesting theory, but if that is the case, what would this mysterious shadow owner stand to gain from running the club into the ground? Unless someone can enlighten me, I can't see this "someone else" gaining anything financially from seeing us tumble from the Premiership down (possibly) to League 1 or lower. I still believe that Venkys were duped by a certain agent into buying the club, and now have no idea how to extricate themselves without losing face in India. They have no interest in the club or its fortunes, they have not set foot in Ewood Park for 6 or 7 years and they do not appreciate the fact that owning a football club, particularly one with our history, is about more than just paying the bills. As a supporter for over 60 years, they have left me in a state of despair as to the future of my club. Going back to my original point, if the shadow owner gains nothing from owning us, then what do Venkys gain from owning us.?
  19. The fact that it is taking so long to make a decision suggests to me that perhaps the EFL are taking legal advice before deciding. The delay is ridiculous, and as others have said, it reflects badly on the EFL.
  20. I was at the game, though not on the league liner. I was living in London at the time and remember getting absolutely drenched on the way to the ground. My hair was as long as Hutchins's but I am now almost bald..Happy days!!
