WHY IS KEAN STILL HERE!!!!

The same fate of relegation will be upon us if Kean remains manager. If they insist on keeping him at the club, then maybe just as a training coach

We might be up against lesser standard teams this season but I still can't see us winning away games regularly under Kean. If last season's away performances are anything to go by then Kean must have the team up all night drinking in the hotel before away games.

Just as a matter of interest, according to a share web site if you had invested 10,000 rands 1 year ago in Venky shares they are now worth just 7,285.15 Rands, not a very good return on your investment. Looks like even their chicken business is going down the pan.
They couldn't run a booze up in a brewery.

"We might be up against lesser standard teams this season" !!!!

Your standard is Championship Football no more no less. BRFC fans will now find out how hard the championship league is with constant Tues/Sat/Tues matches.

BRFC are no better or any less at this moment in time than any of the other teams.

Don't think it is going to be an easy ride and presume BRFC will easily beat the Clarets, the lack of experience in a more fiercer league will sorely test your team.

All BRFC fans should remember in the forthcoming season how the derisively called it the "Chumpionship" so welcome Chumps.

I agree, the sooner we get used to mixing it large with you chumps the more likely we are to get back where we belong, lording it over you mincers in the PL. Just think how honoured you will be visting Ewood, we have toilets you can use instead of your own pockets.

Yes BRFC are a spent force, they should be renamed Venky Rovers. All the "moaners, whingers etc are facing the reality of the situation, that is why they are constantly trying to find ways of displacing these incompetent fools. No amount of baiting by others will deflect us from our main goal, getting rid of Kean and his troupe of circus performers.

What I can't understand about all this protesting by supporters and refusal to spend money on BRFC - assuming the club went up for sale who in their right mind would want to buy a club with no season ticket holders, and fans that conduct hate and smear campaigns when things are going against them?

Surely all the protesting and refusal to buy season tickets can be counter-productive for BRFC in the long run?

Cant see us getting more than 8000 ST sold before the season starts personally. Only way that will be any higher is if Kean and Venkys are gone in the next couple of weeks. Should be some movement on selling the club soon....

As soon as the Venky's and Kean are history there will be a flood of applications for ST's. Even at twice the price. After all we will have been deprived of watching our team. Which we love but cannot stand to see destroyed by these clowns.

Must agree your ST prices seem a good bargain. Mine was £258 for upper tier James Hargreaves stand albeit a very good seat. There again taking all into consideration mine must be the better bargain of the two because I am watching a settle club with sound management.

protesting and refusal to buy season tickets is the only action we can take,, why do idiots who dont understand the passion of BRFC keep carping on about the fans, its not the fans who appointed fat kean,, its the owners.. its very sad that the burnley are focusing all their efforts an another clubs demise. yes we will get relegated again, but at least we are trying something , we have high standards,, burnley are content with no trophys .. whose name is etched on the Prem Trophy ?

Fair comment and all banter aside I can see why you all must be aggrieved - mainly with the lack of info coming from anyone inside the club.
personally speaking though I have watched Burnley in all four divisions and seen some terrible seasons, but the one constant in all the turmoil was the supporters (Although obviously the number fluctuated). I can't conceive a situation where I wouldn't renew my season ticket, unless it was financially motivated.

I agree with the above comment about the Walker Foundation - what were they thinking? Although I appreciate that when Jack departed he was the driving force and the only one really interested in financially supporting Blackburn, it is like the rest of the family are sat there with their collective fingers in their ears saying La la la I cannot hear any of the problems at Blackburn now?? Although the much-berated Fit and Proper Persons Test is nothing more than a box-ticking excercise to satisfy the PL that they won't have to step in and bail out a club, surely the executives at The Walker Trust should have seriously done their homework regarding selling something that was so close to their founder's heart. They didn't and the supporters have ultimately paid the price for their greed.

They cannot win with you lot of whingers. When the tickets are not on sale you ridicule the club. When they do go back on sale at the same reduced price you whinge about the price after the deadline.

Now we are in the same league again - a little bit of history ;-))

1889 Football League 'Test Match', Stoke 0-0 Burnley

Suspicions of foul play in football go all the way back to the 19th century. At that time, the Football League only had two divisions; First and Second. At the end of the season, the top two teams from the Second Division and the bottom two from the first would enter a 'test match' play-off to decide which clubs would play top flight football the following campaign. All four teams would play each other for the remaining two places in the First Division. In the 1898 Test Matches, Stoke and Burnley entered the last game knowing that a draw would ensure both clubs' place with the elite, at the expense of Newcastle and Blackburn. What followed was a 0-0 result – the so-called 'match without a shot at goal'. This sparked claims of cheating and, consequently, Test Matches were immediately scrapped and automatic promotion and relegation was introduced.

But you arent talking about both clubs. You are on here for the sole purpose of writing about Blackburn Rovers. None of you clarets talk about your own club, you write under this article like its just about Blackburn Rovers and by doing so confirm what we say, that our club is more important. Often its a claret fan posting first in the day about Blackburn Rovers. Dont be so stupid.

So Man U and City, Arsenal, Chelsea etc etc aren't better than anything in the Championship?

I don't see any reference to US being a better standard.

If you'd just bothered to read the comment before jumping on your high horse you might have noticed he is referring to the teams we were playing against.

I have watched Rovers in all leagues too - over 30 years - but believe me, the reason you cant imagine ever being in a situation where you wouldnt buy a season ticket is because it is is such an unusual situation. Me and my family havent taken the decision lightly but by the time the whistle went in that last game, we had reached the point when we couldnt tolerate anymore of what is in essence a massive Sting job. It may be our club, but it doesnt feel like it any more and we are not going to carry on being taken for mugs by something that we are convinced is illegal or corrupt. It is completely frustrating feeling that you can do nothing about it, listening week after week to that bald headed imbecile contradicting himself, telling lies, talking complete clap trap and wondering why he hasnt been sacked. The whole circus is a disgrace. Its nothing to do with relegation. Being relegated fair and sqaure is part of the game, but our club was relegated due to incompetent ownership and management likely with a hidden agenda, not because we didnt have a good enough set of players (before they started getting shut of them all). You are criticising us but whatever we have tried, protest marches, protests outside the ground, inside the ground etc we have been criticised. This is our only way of telling them that we wont put up with any more, we wont subscribe to their shabby plan and we wont support a set of liars. Going along like a bunch of morons, sitting clapping like a bunch of sealions and totally disregarding the dirty dealings wouldnt be supporting our club, it would be further damaging it. Supporting our club is trying to win it back, get the useless muppets out, making a stand, sticking together and being of the same mind. Empty seats arent going to put off another buyer. Its well documented why those seats are empty. The primary concern is to get these shysters out. It's easy for you not to understand, most fans of other clubs see totally why we feel as we do but you are never going to show any support being our local rivals. Just remember though, it could happen at your club. I wont be going to the game with Burnley or any other game.

Fair comment and all banter aside I can see why you all must be aggrieved - mainly with the lack of info coming from anyone inside the club. personally speaking though I have watched Burnley in all four divisions and seen some terrible seasons, but the one constant in all the turmoil was the supporters (Although obviously the number fluctuated). I can't conceive a situation where I wouldn't renew my season ticket, unless it was financially motivated.

I have watched Rovers in all leagues too - over 30 years - but believe me, the reason you cant imagine ever being in a situation where you wouldnt buy a season ticket is because it is is such an unusual situation. Me and my family havent taken the decision lightly but by the time the whistle went in that last game, we had reached the point when we couldnt tolerate anymore of what is in essence a massive Sting job. It may be our club, but it doesnt feel like it any more and we are not going to carry on being taken for mugs by something that we are convinced is illegal or corrupt. It is completely frustrating feeling that you can do nothing about it, listening week after week to that bald headed imbecile contradicting himself, telling lies, talking complete clap trap and wondering why he hasnt been sacked. The whole circus is a disgrace. Its nothing to do with relegation. Being relegated fair and sqaure is part of the game, but our club was relegated due to incompetent ownership and management likely with a hidden agenda, not because we didnt have a good enough set of players (before they started getting shut of them all). You are criticising us but whatever we have tried, protest marches, protests outside the ground, inside the ground etc we have been criticised. This is our only way of telling them that we wont put up with any more, we wont subscribe to their shabby plan and we wont support a set of liars. Going along like a bunch of morons, sitting clapping like a bunch of sealions and totally disregarding the dirty dealings wouldnt be supporting our club, it would be further damaging it. Supporting our club is trying to win it back, get the useless muppets out, making a stand, sticking together and being of the same mind. Empty seats arent going to put off another buyer. Its well documented why those seats are empty. The primary concern is to get these shysters out. It's easy for you not to understand, most fans of other clubs see totally why we feel as we do but you are never going to show any support being our local rivals. Just remember though, it could happen at your club. I wont be going to the game with Burnley or any other game.

'Being relegated fair and sqaure is part of the game, but our club was relegated due to incompetent ownership and management..' Yeah yeah yeah, its always different for the bstrds innit?...how else do clubs find themselves going from top to bottom you cck. Your case is no different to many a club gone previously. Your biggest problem now is not a footballing one. Your problem is that the infrastructure of the club is being dismantled. Football wise you could quickly recover if managed and financed correctly, but putting the infrastructure of a club back together again in the ruins of what remains is another task entirely. This would have to be done first if the football is to recover. There's a bloke with recent experience of such a task who may be able to give you a few tips, his name is Barry Kilby.

Merlin Rabbit is a great example of how many Rovers fans feel. The decline of our club is a result of being controlled by people who are more motivated by lining their own pockets than the success of the club.

No Mark Nay Never is a great example of someone who doesn't understand that this is a very different scenario to his club where they are at least trying to succeed but just are not good enough.

'a great example of someone who doesn't understand that this is a very different scenario to his club' - a bstrd.

Some clubs over load themselves with debt and come unstuck. Some mis-manage the books and come unstuck. Some make a poor choice of manager and blindly back them until the money is gone then come unstuck. Some bid to cash in on their most valued players and develop the ones further down.
Poor ownership is poor ownership and you are no different to other clubs who have been failed by poor owners. I know it feels unique to you but sadly you're not the first and doubtless the last.
Glasgow Rangers look like having to reform and start all over again from the bottom. I'd say their fans have it worse than you.
Its no good bleating on to everybody about your terrible demise, its just a sad fact of footballing life these days that clubs occaisionally do a wobble for whatever reason and sink. People are hardened to it now so you'll just have to wait for it to finish then look to rebuild what is left i.e. Burnley, Leeds, Portsmouth, Rangers, etc.
By then venky's may have decided to change the club colours to red and do away with the club badge in favour of a new one, but i suppose you'll bleat on that this can only happen to you lot.

Last night i heard a Claret singing a song,
oooowee chirpa chirpa cheap cheap.
Woke up this morning and the bstrds had gone,
oooowee chirpa chirpa cheap cheap.

Where the venkys from,

Fair comment and all banter aside I can see why you all must be aggrieved - mainly with the lack of info coming from anyone inside the club. personally speaking though I have watched Burnley in all four divisions and seen some terrible seasons, but the one constant in all the turmoil was the supporters (Although obviously the number fluctuated). I can't conceive a situation where I wouldn't renew my season ticket, unless it was financially motivated.

I have watched Rovers in all leagues too - over 30 years - but believe me, the reason you cant imagine ever being in a situation where you wouldnt buy a season ticket is because it is is such an unusual situation. Me and my family havent taken the decision lightly but by the time the whistle went in that last game, we had reached the point when we couldnt tolerate anymore of what is in essence a massive Sting job. It may be our club, but it doesnt feel like it any more and we are not going to carry on being taken for mugs by something that we are convinced is illegal or corrupt. It is completely frustrating feeling that you can do nothing about it, listening week after week to that bald headed imbecile contradicting himself, telling lies, talking complete clap trap and wondering why he hasnt been sacked. The whole circus is a disgrace. Its nothing to do with relegation. Being relegated fair and sqaure is part of the game, but our club was relegated due to incompetent ownership and management likely with a hidden agenda, not because we didnt have a good enough set of players (before they started getting shut of them all). You are criticising us but whatever we have tried, protest marches, protests outside the ground, inside the ground etc we have been criticised. This is our only way of telling them that we wont put up with any more, we wont subscribe to their shabby plan and we wont support a set of liars. Going along like a bunch of morons, sitting clapping like a bunch of sealions and totally disregarding the dirty dealings wouldnt be supporting our club, it would be further damaging it. Supporting our club is trying to win it back, get the useless muppets out, making a stand, sticking together and being of the same mind. Empty seats arent going to put off another buyer. Its well documented why those seats are empty. The primary concern is to get these shysters out. It's easy for you not to understand, most fans of other clubs see totally why we feel as we do but you are never going to show any support being our local rivals. Just remember though, it could happen at your club. I wont be going to the game with Burnley or any other game.

'Being relegated fair and sqaure is part of the game, but our club was relegated due to incompetent ownership and management..' Yeah yeah yeah, its always different for the bstrds innit?...how else do clubs find themselves going from top to bottom you cck. Your case is no different to many a club gone previously. Your biggest problem now is not a footballing one. Your problem is that the infrastructure of the club is being dismantled. Football wise you could quickly recover if managed and financed correctly, but putting the infrastructure of a club back together again in the ruins of what remains is another task entirely. This would have to be done first if the football is to recover. There's a bloke with recent experience of such a task who may be able to give you a few tips, his name is Barry Kilby. Burnley FC...just pleased its not us this time. Howe the lads

Merlin Rabbit is a great example of how many Rovers fans feel. The decline of our club is a result of being controlled by people who are more motivated by lining their own pockets than the success of the club.

No Mark Nay Never is a great example of someone who doesn't understand that this is a very different scenario to his club where they are at least trying to succeed but just are not good enough.

'a great example of someone who doesn't understand that this is a very different scenario to his club' - a bstrd.

Some clubs over load themselves with debt and come unstuck. Some mis-manage the books and come unstuck. Some make a poor choice of manager and blindly back them until the money is gone then come unstuck. Some bid to cash in on their most valued players and develop the ones further down.
Poor ownership is poor ownership and you are no different to other clubs who have been failed by poor owners. I know it feels unique to you but sadly you're not the first and doubtless the last.
Glasgow Rangers look like having to reform and start all over again from the bottom. I'd say their fans have it worse than you.
Its no good bleating on to everybody about your terrible demise, its just a sad fact of footballing life these days that clubs occaisionally do a wobble for whatever reason and sink. People are hardened to it now so you'll just have to wait for it to finish then look to rebuild what is left i.e. Burnley, Leeds, Portsmouth, Rangers, etc.
By then venky's may have decided to change the club colours to red and do away with the club badge in favour of a new one, but i suppose you'll bleat on that this can only happen to you lot.

Last night i heard a Claret singing a song,
oooowee chirpa chirpa cheap cheap.

One '0 clock in the morning and still going on about Blackburn Rovers.

A very sad, obsessed, full of hate, bitter and twisted person.

It may be one in the morning where you are silly bstrd.
Talk about sad and obsessed, trying to respond to a Claret post at 7 in the morning without actually being able to form any sort of response as usual...silly bstrd.
