    I have a few points to be made that have already been said but here goes.
    1. LET must work with Radio Lancs to set the ball rolling with invetigating Venkys into the purchase of the club and how it is being run. Long overdue!!
    2. After witnessing the Norwich game once again our players were made nervous by the chanting which, I can understand but any fan worth their salt must surely know will have an adverse affect and Martinez's team talk for Wigan will be along the lines of "get an early goal boys and it's all over for Blackburn."
    3. I have spoken to many fellow season ticket holders with a split of those not renewing and those that are renewing only to conclude that I am unsure of what will happen to our club if many stop going as will happen if we go down.
    4. It is not Dunny's fault, so lay off. This fella loves this club and does a lot of charity work which goes untold in the town. He can only answer what he is asked. Let our ex-players raise the concerns. Thank you Simon Garner and Kevin Gallacher.
    5. Kean- tactically lacking and Utd and Liverpool at home were the games that stand out.
    6. The crop of young players is not to Venky's or even Kean's credit as this is Uncle Jack's legacy as he wanted the club to create it's own talent.
    7. Don't see where we are heading other than sad days, not only for the club but also the town but if we go down hope to have some decent derbies to go and watch to ease the pain. Nothing better than Lancashire derbies no matter what they say.
    8. Venky's- really, what are you doing and what have you done?
    RTID!!
    Again, point 2 - blames the fans. Despicable.
    Not blaming the fans Melanie but it hasn't helped. Venkys and in some respects Kean and then the players but knowing the chants are not far away against Kean gives the opponents a big incentive for away teams to score early as they will know what will happen.
    I paid my money up front and know for a fact one of the protest leaders isn't a season ticket holder so how can that be right as I know he plays football in a Saturday afternoon team. Don't you have to watch matches to at least comment?
    Point 2 -Whoever started that chant at that point is doing a village out of a good idiot.
    If any player in a blue and white shirt has such delicate sensibilities that their game is going to collapse should they become aware that there are chants against the owners and manager then that player is not fit to wear it.

    Can you seriously imagine players such as Keeley, Hendry, Garner, Speedie, Moran, Batty, Flitcroft etc etc p'ing their pants at a bit of noise coming from the stands? Really?

    If that's true then that's yet more evidence of how far this proud club has sunk, since it would appear that we have a bunch of nancy boys playing for us.
    Not the point and you know it.
    GREAT POINT.

    Awwww diddums.... players upset that the majority of fans are cheering the team but booing the owners... awwwww."

Dunn: Survival would be a ‘great achievement’

DAVID Dunn believes Premier League survival would be a “great achievement” for Blackburn Rovers after admitting dramatic changes at Ewood have proved costly.

The midfielder celebrated his 250th Premier League appearance by helping Rovers to a priceless 2-0 win over Norwich City, as they gave themselves a top flight lifeline.

Rovers remain three points adrift of safety though with just three games remaining and Dunn admits the amount of change at the club in such a short space of time has had an effect.

Dunn said: “It hurts a lot. Everything around it hurts me. There just seems to be unrest everywhere you look. But unfortunately that happens sometimes when things aren’t going well.

“I think there have probably been too many changes in a short space of time and I think any club that makes that many changes would be affected.

“That goes from at the training ground to down at Ewood. But we’ve got to keep going.

“I think winning the Worthington Cup was really good and the promotion season was great, and my England cap.

“But I do think that after everything we’ve had to put up with this year, and it’s been so frustrating for everyone involved with the club, it would be a great achievement to stay up.

“I’d be over the moon if we could get those points in the bag.”

Just a few weeks ago, Rovers looked to be heading to safety after wins against Sunderland and Wolves moved them six points clear of the drop zone.

A run of five straight defeats though drastically changed the outlook, leaving Saturday’s win vital to give Rovers a chance of surviving.

With trips to Tottenham and Chelsea and a home match against Wigan left to save their season, Dunn knows nothing can be ‘left on the pitch’.

“Basically, whoever goes down, deserves to go down,” said Dunn. “Hopefully the big man upstairs can look down on us and keep us in the league.

“But it’s certainly not going to happen if we play like we did at Swansea.

“We’ve got to have a real good go and our application, first and foremost, has got to be the most important thing.

“Every single one of our players has got to go out there and give it everything. We’ve got to match the other teams for determination and willingness to grind out results and I think too many times this season, we haven’t done that.”
