  1. Glad to hear that. Not on X and don't drive a Tesla!
  2. Not exactly what you're seeking but valuable all the same. The link to the story I posted above is worth opening if you havn't. There were about 230 comments on the BBC's account of our Boro loss at the time I posted. What struck me was the sympathy extended to us by fans of other clubs (not Burnley though! but there was a Preston one!) These fans can see what we are going through and warmly wish us the best in taking on Venkys. That's worth a lot to me. They understand better than some of our own fans! But we are not alone. Time to get an MP/ex-MP or two on board again I think. MP's speaking in parliament cannot be sued remember. https://www.bbc.com/sport/football/teams/blackburn-rovers
  3. A view of Gestede from a Boro fan: Source--BBC Sport: P Comment by Paul at 07:29 5 Apr Paul 07:29 5 Apr Good win for the Boro Great away support Can't believe anyone would appoint Rudy Gestede as Head of football operations. He was a total liability when he was at the Boro. Everyone was over the moon when Neil Warnock kicked him out of the club even though his contract was not up UTB My advice to Blackburn fans get him out of your club https://www.bbc.com/sport/football/live/cx20ldxvxy7t
  4. And if you meet any rich Arabs who want to buy a football club don'r keep the meeting secret from us!
  5. Much more interested in shutting down criticism of themselves than running the club properly. The more desperate they get, the more we can feel we are winning. Not true. I knew someone would inaccurately quote that bit. Waggott said there has been no "concrete offers". That's the same as when politicians accused of covering up a scandal, state "I'm unaware of any formal complaint." Presumably when approached Venkys have said "no, we are not interested in selling." Thus things never preceded to the point of a concrete offer ever having been made.
  6. Given the personal abuse and threats Glen has received in his time. its a wonder he bothers. Other than making a nasty personal comment, what's your real point?
  7. So when we get relegated next season will he admit he didn't clap hard enough?
  8. Well i've read and digested a lot but right now I'd say the chances of Rovers, as we know it, surviving more than say 4 years seem very remote. If Venkys won't sell the club has had it.150 years down the drain.
  9. Season ticket holders counted but didn't turn up.
  10. A clear example of how disengaged they are from Ewood. They appoint non-entities, then believe what these stooges tell them! They don't have the interest to even get a balanced account of what is happening. What is the point of hanging on year after year?
  11. Yes but in that 3 months interim many season tickets won't be renewed. That will be very significant I'd imagine.
  12. I don't know much about Carlisle I admit but you haven't provided an argument as to why Rovers don't need to lose Venkys. OK it seemingly isn't working out well at Carlisle but its not working out well at Ewood is it? Should we stay as we are?
  13. They are at the bottom and that's why the challenge appealed to the new owners.At least they have hope, we'll have to see how it ends. What exactly are you saying? Getting a new owner might not pay so Venkys should stay? Bizarre if so.
  14. The same sort of people who are buying Carlisle! People with money who want a challenge. Don't fall for this guff, are you saying we have to have Venkys forever? We'll die anyway if we do.
  15. . If they left tomorrow there wouldn't be anything to show for 15 years except decline on all fronts. They've spent a lot of money but they've invested NOTHING.
  16. If the talent is there it goes somewhere else! Haven't you noticed?
  17. How the hell did Tarkowski escape a red card ?
  18. True Den. Not just relying on youth players though---they were going to lease players! They've kept both of those promises just not in the Premier League!
  19. and how many laughed at Eustace for taking on an impossible job? Derby certain to go down etc How he's turned that around even after early failures should convince even the thickest fan what a gem we have lost. He certainly hasn't been replaced by the current manager. They hardly mentioned him did they? What a great job the 3 stooges have done.
  20. A few questions for Waggot---he clearly implied that if there were to be a sale of the club, the owners would be looking to get their £200 M+ back. Of course they won't get it back or anything like it. I notice that he didn't say there had been no offers for the club, he said there had been no "concrete" offers for the club which means anything he wants it to mean. I suspect any offers were declined before they could become "concrete". What a bunch of liars they are. So do they prefer to keep hold of the club and continue to put money in, or better expressed, start putting money in again? Or does this 3000 minutes stuff foreshadow that they intend to rest even more heavily on our own youngsters? Are they really so dumb that they they think we can sell a Wharton every year? Or that the supporters could live with that even if it were possible? How do they expect us to avoid falling down the leagues with this "plan". We'll end up in a local league playing in a field. Surely they will give up?
  21. As others have said the key moment in that "interview" with the 3 stooges was when Waggot did not completely deny that Venkys might sell. A small chink of light but its the first and only.
  22. Don't forget Leyton Orient and Tranmere Rovers!!
  23. Get promoted and its a different ball-game entirely---a concept beyond Venkys.
  24. Rory is very impressive. Combination of passion and grasp of events. We should hear more from him.
