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.

Hilarious.

"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.

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!

Um! Hardly convincing. Naive?

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.

I think he was being tongue in cheek rather than literal?

Thus completing the destruction of everything Jack did.

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?

You're not. Just making a point!

Just caught up with the first episode. Very enjoyable. 3 features stood our for me, the state of the stadiums in 1992, how "uncultured" the football seems to be---players flying in to tackles which would get you sent off now and how old Hendry looked! Very interesting comments from Shearer on his transfer to us. But, as always, my feelings of watching Rovers in the Premier League are full of regrets at how its been thrown away. I watched it through clenched teeth.

And if we did miraculously get promotion TM would absolutely shit himself.

Does that mean Butterworth will start the next game?

Well we'll see. He'll either get a contract extension or he won't.

But you leap to the illogical conclusion that an hypothesis I put forward is a "conspiracy theory." Its no such thing, its speculation based on the facts as I see them. The point of a Message Board I would have thought. A bit rich especially when you offer no theory of your own. If we all posted that we don't know what's happening therefore there's no point in talking about it and that anyone who attempts a possible explanation is a conspiracy theorist then we'd have no Message Board.

I've read your post twice but I don't follow the logic of it. What is the explanation, in your view, for Venkys not spending? You've given your view on what it isn't so what is it?

very sad for him. Just starting his senior career and might never be where he was. Its a cruel game sometimes.
