If we were to spend £5M it might keep us in the Championship. We need more than that to be a serious contender. Not a season to look forward to.

Used to be packed at the time, usually with away supporters. We always went right up the back. There was very rarely any trouble. Or Real Madrid.

Make that 4, I was on the Darwen End with my school-mates.

Other clubs will be quaking in their boots! We continue to plan for the future that never comes.

Not much is it? As bad as nothing.

At 16 I think he would.

Nixon's at it again. A 16 year old this time. https://the72.co.uk/2024/05/26/blackburn-rovers-igor-tyjon-wanted-manchester-united/

Independent Football Regulator legislation a victim of the early General Election.

We honestly hope you sell him for zillions, then we can at least get some decent money for all we did.

Or "Suttee" for the missus!

46 points then---we're doomed.

Not in the top league though. A recent estimate I saw put their wealth at £1.6 billion---and there's 3 of them. Why spend it on a football club faraway? However that leads to"why not sell then?" And there's no answer for that.

Duff

Oh to see a real winger again!

Is Travis returning? Anybody know?

Don't tell me he's on a bonus if we're relegated?!!

I suppose our 2nd goalscorer will be Gally? What could go wrong?

It was in News Now so its probably rubbish. 😭

He is a young striker I think but i can't remember his name.

We're looking for a freebie from Crawley Town its reported. That gives us a clue as to how many millions we will not be spending whatever we get for Sammi. Same as with Wharton before him. We are in a very bad state. The owners should do the decent thing and sell. The aim again, stated or not, will be to stay in this division. Premier League football is but a distant dream.

If Venkys finally decided to declare Rovers bankrupt and Rovers fans + a consortium decided to form Blackburn Rovers 2025 and play in blue and white halves, would you back them or would you say that's legally a different club and I'm have nothing to do with it?

You think we'll keep them then? A season maybe?

Dembele full but we're hungry!!

Agree Tosin and Van Hecke. Reed not so much.

Well I wasn't thinking of the last 10-20 years in my criticism. I'd kill to get back to that position where Mark Hughes seemed to be able to pluck champions off trees. I note Chaddy's done the same----even Shearer features in his list-- as if anybody wasn't going to get a tune out of him! No--I was thinking of more recently and I've given some good examples. Enough to justify my original conclusion I think. Most of our loan players have been disappointing too. I mentioned Branthwaite who was a revelation when he went to Everton after being rubbish for us. Only Elliot has really looked like a top player in the making. But galling when these look good somewhere else. What's wrong with our club? On reflection, scrub that. Our coaching staff can't be very good apart from the Academy.
