Great insight there. It's been bleedin' obvious since the end of last season

Midway through September and the season is already unraveling. It’s obvious the summer transfer window was wasted, the squad is worse than last season and we’ve no hope of getting anywhere near the playoffs.

The club is going nowhere. Another wasted season

Please don't lose to Tony..... not him of all people

Is it a cup game?

I'm sure his family are very happy in the Ribble valley. It's a pleasant area with good schools, and it will probably be their UK base for the foreseeable. But that doesn't mean dad won't find work elsewhere.

Last time I went to Portman Road was our first season down after relegation from the Premier League under the wonderful Steve Keen. The match ended 1-1 but we would have lost if they'd taken their chances. I won't be going this time - it's a long way home after a defeat which Iooks inevitable on current form

No better than East Lancs and the Ribble valley in particular. I think that will be the least of his considerations; more important is the "project" isn't the one he was sold and he's been lied to; he's realised the club is dysfunctional and is run by third grade execs; and most important, he wants success and he's unlikely to achieve it on a shoestring budget

He'll be off as soon as a better club comes along - it won't be long

Do you have the video clip? I'd love to see it. I was a world class player too - in my back garden

Good piece in the Times this week on Bradford City. Struggling for results at the moment in the fourth division under Mark Hughes but crowds are averaging around 18,000, better than many Championship clubs including Rovers, and the place is bubbling with enthusiasm. Their fans have suffered a roller coaster ride even more than us in the past decade or so but the feeling is they’re on the way back. You don’t get that feeling with us

None of you lot have it right: the best England team in my lifetime has been the 1970 side, even better than the one wot won it in 1966 Banks, Sir Keith, Cooper, Mullery, Labone, Moore, Lee, Ball, Charlton, Hurst, Peters Reserves included the likes of Stiles, Hunter, Bell, Clarke, Astle and Osgood. Should have been in the 1970 final against the brilliant Brazil team of Pele and Gerson but for Banks's dodgy tummy and Ramsey's tactical errors in the quarter-final

With regards to the Buckley loan, Tomasson and Broughton are telling different stories. Both cannot be true. And as Tomasson has always been brutally honest in everything he says, I know which one I believe. Broughton is evidently spinning a yarn about Buckley, so why believe anything else he says?

Southgate's CV will show he took England to our first big final in more than 50 years but boy did he blow it, at home, at Wembley, tactically against an Italy side that 6 months later could not even qualify for the World Cup. He's got some wonderful players to choose from and he has to win the next Euros or step aside.

150th anniversary of the oldest international football fixture What a waste of time

Looks like it . We beat them 3-1 at Ewood on October 25,1969. Shilton was playing that day

For the first time in years we have a manager / coach who is taking the cup competitions seriously yet here we have a CEO who clearly does not. Has it not occurred to the £300,000 a year CEO that a decent cup run brings money into the club and excitement for the fans and a spillover of higher attendances at league games? Steve Waggott the "inspiring leader". https://www.walmsleywilkinson.com/news-and-insights/interviews/inspiring-leaders-steve-waggott-ceo-blackburn-rovers/

Absolutely bazza. Courtesy, consistency and etiquette.

Can he crick his neck washing his hair like Bobby Bell?

That's not what Rovers fans want to hear We desperately need more and better strikers and except for an unproven young German lad Ennis is the only forward we've brought in during the entire transfer window ,

Great track... it's about Welsh miners going to Spain in 1936 to fight Franco's fascists Venky's and the power of a rising India are connected

Brum?

Are India's shareholder laws and rights as robust as the UK's? To me, this news potentially leaves us in the worst of all worlds: they have another excuse to limit or withdraw funding for Rovers yet they're not impacted financially enough for them to have to to offload the club in a fire sale We're still stuck in their bottom drawer, maybe useful at some point in the future yet actually forgotten and unwanted

Most of their tenure hasn't been acceptable but no one has been able to do anything about it. If the tax "fraud" has taken place in the UK there might be hope but if it's in India would it have any ramifications for their UK interests? I don't know but I think it's unlikely

And what "prestige" is this of which you speak? We like to think we're a special club but then so do supporters of every club. We have an illlustrious history but I'm afraid it counts for little now. Prospective new owners will look at the club's accounts, attendances, the wealth of the area, the prospects for growth. There's very few Jack Walkers whose heart and soul were invested in the club.
