Attendances: A cause for concern
47er replied to SIMON GARNERS 194's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
We're on different time lines here. You are assuming that this good start will continue for the rest of the season. I'm taking the longer view and, imo, the realistic one. Whatever you want to believe its obvious that our gates are dropping year by year. -
Its true that we are playing better, (or rather getting better results) than many of us expected. But I remember last year so I don't expect this to last. But, contrary to what those writing to the LT believe, I will be delighted to be wrong.

Worth a try.

Likely to be an increasingly small one unless things change quick though? -

And Blackpool won at Boro! We need to die and return! -
Could the fans save the club without ownership?
47er replied to StubbsUK's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
I've not read anyone suggest we break FFP rules and have a high turnover of managers.However I have read many complaints about signing crocks, paying $12M for 2 strikers who can't lead the line, paying to borrow youngsters who keep our own youngsters out, hanging on to a manager who clearly isn't taking us up and putting prices up beyond local ability to pay. All complaints on the basis that these actions were wasting precious money, reducing our support and threatening to take us nearer to administration. -
I went when we won 1-0 in the Premiership (Duff?). That away end was exactly the same except for rows of plastic seats recently installed! No roof or anything else! And the bogs overflowed outside!

A big club too. Crowds last season regularly in the 20's. Now 16000+. Another Phoenix Club in the making here I think.

Don't put your hopes in Johnson. Another great signing from Mowbray. When he does eventually return it will be for a few games at most and he'll be off again.

As to the "better the devil you know" argument---- we do know the devils we've got?! Personally I welcome any interest from anyone else in owning Rovers. No actual evidence that anyone is interested of course but its good to be cheered up sometimes. -

"how could they finance buying the club?" was the question I answered. They have financed buying Asda. -

We'd be no worse off would we and I just can't see anyone making such wrong decisions as Venkys have. At least they are not half a world away, plenty of opportunities to tell them what's going wrong! -

How could they be any worse? At least they live here! If they owned the club that could be the catalyst for more ethnic fans to turn up. After all, Blackburn is a pretty small town without them! As for "how would they finance buying the club?", you would be aware they just bought Asda so I"ll assume they would manage that easily enough! -
Had a chuckle at this! On Chinese social media site Weibo, the hashtag “18-year-old ethnic Chinese young player wins US open championship” has now been viewed at least 200m times, with most commenters applauding her success"!!!!

Agree, going on and on about him at this stage when he isn't even tied to us is ridiculous or worse. -
Summer transfer window 2021.

Every football fans dream to be employed in football in some capacity or other, given that we haven't the football talent! So congratulations and enjoy! PS You'll escape Tory England too! -

Andrews did once save a certain goal by heading it off the line and that's the only positive memory for me from his entire career with us! He ran up and down, pointing where he thought someone else should do something but without actually touching the ball. himself. He should have been designated non-playing captain! -
We'll play a few good teams in a row at some point and that's when we'll find out our true status.

Yes, you're right. Trying to make supporters feel guilty for not going rather than facing up to "why?" Wouldn't like the answers would they? -
