  1. Point A almost certainly, although it goes hand in hand with point B and why they've now got their Govt crawling all over them.
  2. That is extremely unlikely even in their stupid minds. The debt will be on there because it suits some accounting process or balance sheet or other probably counting Rovers as an overseas asset that has had 200 million of company money 'invested' in it. Same thing at various other clubs that then gets written off when the club comes up for sale or lumps of it get written off to improve a clubs balance sheet. Davies for example wrote off c100 million at Bolton when he couldn't fund it to its required levels anymore and prepped it for sale.
  3. Show us where it says anywhere that these are loans that need repaying ?
  4. Only in football and at this club in particular do they deem it acceptable to charge a min of £8 quid more for another set of opposition of the same standard in the same league as the one we played on Saturday. Complete joke and about time people stuck 2 fingers up at this practise.
  5. If the club has ended up in a period of being self sustaining because of this then there is absolutely no better time to put it up for sale. Needing 10 mill a year funding suddenly makes it more attractive than needing 20.
  6. Same old same old rhetoric creeping about in the local press again 'Leonard coming back' as if he's ever even done anything in the first place yet other than looking a bit lively. And for about the 3rd time Markandy's name been chucked about as a positive if he comes back from being on loan. It's quite simple really instead of keep pinning hopes on a few kids who've proven nothing and a couple of cheap overseas punts just BUY or loan in a bloody striker over 21 with some scoring pedigree in this country, even if it's mostly at lge 1 !!!! The evidence is overwhelming, Armstrong, Dack, Smodics etc ! Initial fee for all those was less than 2 mill apiece and only one was on big money because he came from a Prem club. Don't tell me we aren't capable of finding similar and affording it.
  7. Been saying it for 12 months now Siggurdson ain't interested in cutting it here he's always struck me as the type who thinks he's entitled to a spot in the side on reputation instead of what he puts in to it. Total luxury player and a passenger mostly. Yes if he left we are yet more quality down in the squad but if he isn't showing it then what is the point we could desperately put those big wages to better use, hopefully. In keeping with Waggots previous in January's though they'd replace him with a kid on a few grand a week.
  8. I presume this money was to pay for something like a loan or summat ? Odd that its gone on the books of that company not not the usual way into VLL. Perhaps it's funds from a house sale....
  9. I expect this to be another grind although with the effort levels pumped up a bit. Rovers 1 Stoke 1 13,858
  10. I said we were overachieving early season but i still maintain that Coventry game took something out of us and caused a bit of panic for the coaches. I don't care who you have in the team though being at home and having a good lump of possession then no shots on target is diabolical. Good opposition yes but it's Sheff U not Liverpool.
  11. That's why i likened it to Bowyers style because he absolutely relied on Rhodes nicking a goal of Marshall producing something but the football often went nowhere. At least though he had the gumption to get a crosser in the side and hit balls towards Rudy. Dolan is a poor imitation of Conway in productive and consistency terms whilst Marshall was better than Hedges will ever be. We do though now have Cantwell who has the ability to be a Tom Cairney type.
  12. The club is firmly plonked back in a an era where it liquidates itself just to pay the wages and bills whilst those in the middle draw huge wages/bonuses/pension funds and others draw commission. Those at the top are happy because they can't be arsed and are 'concentrating on their business in India' - ( corporate speak for couldn't give a toss) We have a manager and squad now that will tread water for another season or two fulfilling the CEO and shadow directors expectations. Happy days, it could be worse obviously.
  13. The can is being booted down the road on purpose now. Longer it goes on it might cost them a few rupees in lawyers fees but saves them tens of millions in funding and tax. Meanwhile the VH group must have found something else to syphon 20 mill a year.
  14. Eustace lost his bottle after Coventry away. We are now a Gary Bowyer team again but without Rhodes and this season (not totally based on yesterday) will fizzle out before Christmas. Bland, defensive, boring and looking for a draw home or away against any side that is expected to finish above us, which under the stewardship of Waggot/shadowman and Venky's is half the league at least.
  15. Another tight game like WBA but probably a lot more physical which we'll have to stand up to. Rovers 1 Blades 1 16, 209
  16. Took a spanking at Cov and the bottle went maybe. 1200+ going down, excellent support for an early tv kick off at fair distance and about time there was some reward on the road.
  17. We'll go for a draw and either get it or fall foul to another late goal. Hornets 2 Rovers 1
  18. Booing clowns like that should be turfed out by their earhole and banned for acting like slapped arses whenever we aren't winning. Sick of these dicks in our home crowd 'iv'e paid £20 to watch this shit' etc. Well stay at home with the rest and spend it on spice instead !
  19. Being billionaires with vast personal wealth as well as a billion dollar corporation someone should have advised the Rao's to buy a premises in Blackburn town centre. Use as a club outlet and if it's outside the shopping centre rent the upstairs as a flat. Needn't cost the club a penny it would be a personal asset and literally pennies out of their pocket but would help the club, fans and profile.
  20. Prepping for more sales and budget slashing in the near future as they continue to fiddle around with a situation that will not resolve itself.
  21. The fact that at times Dolan and/or Hedges keep an international out of the starting line up tells it's own story and he is probably on both their wages combined. I'm 100% certain that John Park and Rudy would invest that money in someone more productive.
  22. A waste of a big wage that guy either get a tune out of him or get rid in Jan and use the wages better he's never fancied the grind since he first turned up.
  23. Good point, hard earned it would be easy to lose a game like that but in the end a bit disappointed not to nick it. Still think we are shoehorning in too many naturally left sided players that means we lack balance we are still crying out for a simple out and out right winger. Pears again proving competent.
  24. Customer service is becoming a thing of the past in all walks of life it seems, corporate's say it's our rules for our convenience or jog on. BRFC the small town football club with small crowds, small income and a stadium half empty now plays by the same silly rules as someone like Liverpool. Pathetic.
