This in itself should be worrying each and every Rovers fan. Borrowing money in this way means we are both desperate and exhausted normal funding routes. No doubt this is also prohibitively expensive so sucking more of our limited funds out of the club.

Am I in cloud cuckoo land, or did we lend the thick end of 10m from a random company based in somebody's house a few months ago?

I'm genuinely not sure. I saw a poll before this came to late somebody had done on Facebook asking who wanted the Raos out and who wanted them to stay and it was pretty evenly split. I personally worry that there isn't enough ground swell of support for anything serious to happen (ie protests, tennis balls etc) so those that do participate get turned upon...but I could be wrong.

Whether they were served or warned of being served due to late payment then it is a big issue. If the club is at any point having threats due to not paying their bills on time, that to me is a huge issue...but equally and sadly almost a welcome one as it HOPEFULLY means the end is nigh for the Raos.

The club being served a winding up petition by HMRC due to owing 3.5m isn't insignificant. Lots of people will know that winding up petitions get issued, but it isn't 'normal' at all. What it shows is that we are / have been pissing very close to the wind and adds further fuel to the fire that we are knee deep in the biggest pile of shite we have been since these shysters took over...and that's saying something!

Starting to think this is absolutely the scenario

I not upset Travis is gone. I don't rate him and think he's a poor captain. Why I'm more galled at is if the supposed replacement is the kid from Brighton. We should be replacing what we've got with better, experience quality. Not taking a chance on some clubs inexperienced kids.

Only a hunch but I just get the feeling something will happen out of the blue one day. We will all wake up one morning and we will have been sold or gone in to admin with no warning whatsoever. This whole crappy situation has now been a saga for more than a third of my lifetime and I'm genuinely fearful that it could be for the rest of it. Things do change though so we must all live in hope it'll one day come to pass. Cov and the barcodes have gone through similar and come out the other side so here's hoping we still can too.

May as well have booted that in to his own net. Terrible goalkeeping

I often attend games on my lonesome. Feel free to hit me up and I'll glad share a pint and a myther before a game

What's all this pivot and double pivot stuff? Do you mean 2 central midfielders?

Please get it right. It's a shitberg 😁

Think they've done it for the past few seasons

Great goal

I'm going to stick my neck out here and go for a 0-2 win. Gareth, being the big Rover that he is, will do us a favour

We are in big trouble.

Sad to say that this is a great post and sums the club up perfectly. I am by no means a big Mowbray fan but lets not forget the poor way in which they also treated him at the end of his tenure. The slow demise of Blackburn Rovers continues and in the most painful way possible; death by a thousand cuts.

He has absolutely and categorically failed on this point to date. The guy is a shyster and the only way he seems able to 'balance the books' is by increasing costs for the supporter and reducing expenditure. GROWING THE ATTENDANCES AND THE FAN BASE WILL INCREASE INCOME.

Hyperbole of the year thus far

Valiant defeat. Inevitably Hirst will score a penalty for Ipswich. 2 - 0

Last night was a terrible result and it really highlighted all of our core issues. We should have been 3 up at half time on the balance of play. First game I've been able to attend this season (watched all the others on TV) and I was thoroughly impressed with some of our approach play. We can get from a goal kick to creating a goalscoring opportunity so quickly its almost insane it's clear JDTs plan is almost there...we just don't have anyone with that killer instinct. The 5 - 10 minutes Telalovic was on the pitch was much brighter than any of the other subs that came on and I felt encouraged by his physicality and want to try and run in behind. I would 100% start him in our next game.

I did the stadium tour at the weekend and was reliably informed that 'Boro have asked for and been given the whole Darwen End. In good news this will hopefully mean the Rovers will be removed and replaced across the seating correctly in time for Sunderland!

The fook was that free kick? Get it in the mixer

Great move for that chance. Should have scored

Travis cannot pass a football
