That is probably the most damning statistic of the Punekars reign of terror (and there is plenty to go at). Waggott won't be able to boast about a record income for season tickets now.

I think some were making assumptions and as most people know assumptions are the mother of all f** ups 😆😆

His English is decent despite one of two suggesting he couldn't speak it. I like the respect he shows in saying Mr Shearer and Mr Suarez. Hopefully he gets some game time on Friday at Stockport so we can get a proper look at him.

Waggott has done exactly what he is paid to do in protecting the owners. His answers are typical Waggott. He appears to have answered the questions without answering them. I just want honesty but there has been very little of that for a long time.

If you haven't moved seats, new or moved into another age category you will still use your existing one. My granddaughter has moved to 12-18 and her new card has been delivered today.

I don't know for certain but rumours abound that they have rebuffed any interest to buy the club from them. There isn't and rational explanation for them still being here.

Gilsenan damaged a thigh muscle in his first week back training. It's quite a serious one is what I was told.

For somebody to buy the club it has to be put on sale. The Punekars won't even entertain any offers which leaves many of us to think there are illegalities they don't want getting out. I can't speak for everyone but their refusal to sell is probably my biggest frustration (although it's a pretty extensive list).

These might be useful too. https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/68194968 https://footballleagueworld.co.uk/update-emerges-on-jon-dahl-tomassons-situation-at-blackburn-rovers-after-press-conference-absence/

I wrote what was said at the time when the deal didn't go through.

Rovers did but the clear omission of Finneran stood out by a mile. https://www.rovers.co.uk/news/2024/july/02/tyjon-signs-as-a-scholar/

It was reported that a delegation would be going to America to do the deal. I took that as something had been agreed between the clubs.

I really don't know. If Kean won a case for constructive dismissal then perhaps but I'll be amazed if the NDA or equivalent will have been more than a tribunal would have awarded them. As an aside I'd love to know how much NDA's have cost the Punekars in the last decade and a half.

He has gone to Newcastle I'm told but for some reason (embarrassment?) Rovers haven't made it public. They quite rightly made a big thing about Tyjon signing but insult us with the radio silence about Finneran.

The point for me is that the money won't be sent from India.

The Raya money and instalments from Phillips and Kaminski.

Of course it does, well to anybody with a few brain cells. If it was a genuine error why haven't we gone back in for McGuire as it was reported we would do. For me it has been pretty much confirmed by the subsequent information garnered by some great investigative work by some posters proving that the Punekars are in trouble. I genuinely think Ian Silvester was the patsy here and it wouldn't surprise me in the slightest if his silence has been bought.

Who knows. Logic dictates to me that both teams would be a mix but in the games against Accrington, Tranmere and Nuremburg he played his strongest team in the first half/game and then changed to essentially the under 21's. Eustace has said it's about fitness and right now I don't think and of the players have played a full 90 minutes.

For clarity I should have posted this link. https://uk.linkedin.com/in/ian-silvester-1016543a

And the new Solihull secretary, Ian Silvester would probably have a wry smile on his face as he pressed send.

I have been told that the reason Ewood will close from noon today is so that employees can attend a fun day at the Academy. There will be bouncy castles and other games for all the staff including the players. This will be followed by a barbeque in the evening. Under normal circumstances something like this wouldn't bother me but in our current plight surely the money could be spent on something more rewarding like power washing the outside of the ground.

I agree Carl but in my opinion the 'off the record' things should be made public. No doubt there will be posts that talk about trust but in my opinion we are now past that point. Our very future is at risk right now I believe which I'm pretty sure you think so too.

I firmly believe in the element of surprise. Waggott would have all his ducks in a row for a pre planned meeting working to an agenda. Tonight is ideal from a timing point of view and to take him by surprise. I don't know if questions will be asked or not but for anyone not grasping the gravity of our situation misses an opportunity to take him to task to praise the new kits design then we might as well put up the shutters now.

Ewood pretty much closed from lunchtime tomorrow for the rest of the day due to a club function.

Waggott would become the victim in many people's eyes which would suit him down to the ground. I have never felt any value could be had by just walking out. Rather than that of he won't answer questions he should be pushed and the right tactics adopted to try and get answers. I personally don't like the idea of the club vetting the minutes before they go out and don't buy into the confidentiality bit. As a supporter and season ticket holder I should privvy to everything that is discussed. The days of niceties are gone for me and playing dirty should be the order of the day. Rovers are obliged to meet supporters bi-annually in a Consultation Meeting and have a Shareholder Meeting but haven't done since Covid, that being the convenient excuse. Waggott is getting away with murder.
