I suppose I just can't accept that the guardians of the game can't be pro-active on behalf of the clubs and their fans. What's wrong with a letter to the owners along the lines of "reports have reached us that the club you own may not be solvent within the next few months. Could you please confirm whether or not these reports are accurate and , if so, what plans have you in train to ensure this doesn't happen?" If no reply or no adequate reply they should be able to impose measures or force the owners to sell. What's the point of trying to act when its too late with measures that simply push the club further in the mire----like fines or points deductions? The system is rubbish and full of highly-paid officials who seem to do nothing much while the real supporters are left to suffer.

If there's no ability to fund the club, how can they be appropriate owners? Do we have to wait till we are bankrupt and bills aren't paid? It seems to me the owners can't guarantee they can run the club next year.

It hangs together imo.

So how about the Football authorities taking an interest for a start? And then some action. Or ar they prepared to see one of the World's oldest clubs simply fade away? Surely there's plenty to get their teething here? Can they force owners to sell a club that can't or won't manage?

Bolton have been through it and have come out stronger than before. Nothing to fear, won't be worse than this.

Still got fans on the LT site scornful of those who want Venkys to quit. We'd be finished they argue. "Who would buy us?" Makes you weep.

In that case Den they have 2 choices---allow their asset to go down the drain or sell.

Poku? Or will we get nowhere near him?

Matter of time then?

I don;'t watch any Champions League matches. Have no interest at all. I'll bet I'm not the only one either. Reminds me how broke Rovers are for a start.

I thought Ohashi's general play was good. He really put the effort in. But he can't "lead the line" and that's what we are missing. I think Ohasi is a real asset in the right set-up.

We passed it back to him 8 times. He only had to get one wrong and its a goal for them not us.

That pass from Travis for the second goal was a "Duggie Pass". There is no higher praise. To think that late last season we got rid of him to save a wage. Absolutely disgustingl and all those responsible------hang your heads in shame.

I'd guess this may have been posted elsewhere but, in case not, its worth a read. https://www.lancashiretelegraph.co.uk/sport/24707219.blackburn-must-avoid-repeat-history-transfer-window/

They got burned in the Premier League. Much safer paddling around in the shallow end that is the Championship.

Took Ipswich one season!!

bit like our's?

One of the few things they are capable of!

We need a win because its getting very tight in this League. We're in a false position at 7th. 5 points less and we'd be among the relegation candidates. Thanks goodness we had a good start but its evaporating quite quickly now.

I wonder how relevant this case is anyway. Suppose Venkys "won" and the Court gave them permission to send unlimited funds to the club? Does anyone believe they would?

I think that was the outlook and the hope at the Club from the start. We simply "over-achieved" early on.

Course it is. That's our role in life.

and from there to the Premier League.

Of course anything is possible but do you really think we will?

And Travis.
