Its inexcusable though to buy an established Premier League club and allow it to be run into the ground by neglect. To imply this isn't their fault because they've left it to others who aren't fit to discharge their obligation, does not free Venkys from blame. On the contrary it amplifies it.

Owners give the Club away to a local consortium with fan involvement. They save £20M a year, we get our Club back. Win-Win! Yes,I'm dreaming!

We'll be getting any young players on loan we can now from Premier league clubs----whether they're any good or not, simply to make the numbers out and to distract from the fact we haven't signed anybody. They won't be significantly better than our youngsters but they'll keep them out.

Let's pray the Ashes tour doesn't go ahead!

We are never able put out our first eleven, even if Mowbray knew what it was.

I can't calculate how many times I wrote that a decade or so ago!! Its time has come!

WELL I'M IN UTTER DESPAIR! I don't think the reading on this site has ever been as desperate as it is now. Based on what we can assess at this point I think we'll be in Div2 in 3, maybe 4 years with crowds of 3000 to 4000 and in administration in 5. If a local buyer/consortium comes along and we start over again from the bottom as AFC Blackburn Rovers, it can't come soon enough for me.

Mowbray's Babes!!

I think there's a fair chance it does!

The point is its not in our hands is it? He holds all the cards .Never should have been bought in the first place---nothing happened for 2 years! But now it might his contract is running down!! Brilliant--you could't make it up.

Well, if he is, its taken 3 years to get there and his contract is up in a year, so he could bugger off for nothing. Does that represent 7M well invested to you?

What happened to the gradual rebuilding plan which would take us back to the Premiership? Clearly we are desperately looking around for loans before the first match!

212 pages but no signings! Is this a record?

The future's shite for blue and white. 😬

Listening to Tracy Crouch on Today---a Tory MP I do have time for--our club would be in the sights of the independent Overseer she longs to appoint. Let's hope the Premier League doesn't start donating to Tory coffers and Johnson listens to her.

However, if he plays well for them we can make the obvious conclusion!

You really think the rest of us aren't aware of that? They could be trying to teach the peasants a lesson for throwing snowballs at them for all I know. It shouldn't be allowed to be this way---foreign owners treating a community asset like a plaything. For them it means nothing, for us it means everything.

The bad run was way longer than the good run and I know where I'd put my money this time round.

And let's remember that the only factor preventing us from being relegated last season was that we made an excellent start. A bad start this season and I fear we won't recover.

OMG!!!

Frightening isn't it?

I think this article sums up our situation very well. To think that we are lacking in numbers and experience, that older players we have aren't that great and are injury-prone and we are set to lose another swag of players in a years time for free, I think we are in a diabolical state. How the hell was it allowed to come to this? https://the72.co.uk/242419/indebted-inexperienced-incapable-blackburn-rovers-stare-down-the-barrel-of-a-damning-2021-22-season/

Just what we need----3 Ayalas. What are we--a bloody charity?

Could be paid on results? Mowbray would be shitting himself at that thought!!

That's a confession isn't it? Desperate.
