Don't employ a turd polisher ! - just start doing things in a CORRECT fashion - show some humility - appologise for the shambles you've caused - put some CASH into the club and sack those morons Agnew, Shaw and Singh and emply a proper football CEO who has the power to put in his own staff and make proper footballing decisions without having to refer back to some woman sat in an ivory tower in the @rse end of India and who knows NOTHING about fooball !!!

Here here, how about getting down to the ground and supporting the team. Yes Venkys have made huge mistakes and huge changes are needed. but kicking off at Venkys in the ground will this really help the team???? I for one don't want them here but lets be real nobody else would buy this club with the mess it is now in. I will be hoping for 3 points and continue the climb back up the table. COYB

We have to make it clear, outside the ground, that we do not like what Venkys have done to our club.

We have to make it clear, inside the ground, that we are the passionate fans we say we are and that we support our team.

The media will go crazy if they have the opportunity to say Blackburn fans don't support their club.

Depending on which side you stand for depends on what you do. On the one hand you pay your twenty quid and do as you say. Not being businessmen and women they think, okay its obvious that the fans aint happy so what shall we do, A) spend another 2 million on PR with another PR firm or B ) Sell up and be looked at as a failure but move on. To be honest I think they would go for A and waste another 2 million which would be better spent on the squad. if going for option B then maybe this is what the missing 10000 have been waiting for, maybe its time for them all to come back when Venkys have gone.
Unfortunately there are no buyers so whats the answer? I don't know but
you seem to be of the philosophy you train a dog by kicking it, come here boy, KICK, come here boy KICK, they may not know anything about football, whereas in your case you just know nothing about anything.
So they haven't attended for nigh on 12 months and the first time an opportunity to open dialogue with them is lost because you kicked them when they came, doesn't make sense to me.

JC that is a sublime return trouble is Venkys don't get it full stop i think BRFC is some kind of cash cow to them where has the money gone!??? Look at the outgoing tranfer fees and compare the incoming transfers and it is not hard to see there is a gulf. you are wholly right the club is a farce and needs either correct management by Venkys if they are here for the long haul or sell and get proper football people in!

Totally agree this is our big chance to tell the Venkys exactly how we feel about them and then running of the club - personally I will not go inside the ground but will vent my feelings outside the ground before the kick off - these clowns including Agnew Singh & Co should be under no mis apprehension as to our disgust/distaste at the way the club has and is being run

I agree with that comment. As it stands with the losses the club is making at the moment Venkys are all that is standing between us and administration. I would agree that they have caused the current problems but I think our efforts would be better put to getting behind the team and help them get 3 points on Saturday. Just my view although I do understand that feelings are running high and many will want to let them have both barrels and I wouldn't condem anyone who wanted to do this. Can't say they don't deserve any abuse they get.

you seem to say alot without actually saying anything but you always seem to end up insulting your fellow Rovers fans - I see you do it later as well - what a tool you are.

"Open dialogue with Venkys" - hahahaha - now who's in cloud cuckoo land - these people have NEVER conversed with ANYONE - even Paul Hunt complained they wouldnt speak with him and they had appointed him acting CEO of the club.

I do think some people made a fair point to vent our anger at Venkys BEFORE the game then get behind MA and the players, during the game.

But then again, I know nothing about anything so I've probably got that wrong as well.

Still, I'm sure you'll be their on Saturday and you'll do 100% the right thing and every other Rovers fan there (acording to you) will do everything 100% wrong because you're perfect and everyone else never knows anything nor are they allowed an opinion - what an insecure person you are.

Hi 8 ball, I think you now have to accept that the ' boycotters' ain't coming back.

Since Kean went things have gone from bad to worse. Until these owners start doing the right thing we will have to accept row after row of empty seats.

Hello Harwood street,
I just think the time has come to start afresh and build instead of continually singing the song about the light bulb that went two years ago.
The only problem for me at the minute is the doomongers want to create more misery by continuing to make the fans look bad with a poisonous atmosphere on appletons first game in charge. How many managers do they need before they get behind the team?

It has got to a very sad state of affairs when fan is calling fan instead of uniting against the common enemy, the Venky's. Whilst I would agree that to protest during a game could be detrimental to the team there is no chance of the protesters staying silent. The team should really not be affected by any adverse chanting against the Venky's as they know it is not directed at them. In fact they should be encouraged to know that the fans regard the club as being so important to them that they are prepared to suffer the abuse from the media and other sources as to their actions.
If it means the club goes into adminsitration and ends up out of the leagues then so be it. The real supporters of the club could not care less what league they are in as long as the club is returned to its former reputation.

Totally the wrong attitude! Should go to the game to SUPPORT THE TEAM, manager and club! Appleton does not need his first home game filled with negative chants

Taken abusing their own club to a whole new level.

Taken to the internet and phone ins to abuse the owners and demand the removal of pretty much every single member of the boardroom/backroom staff.

Lets be honest here - should Venkys decide "What the ****, these guys have no respect for the millions of pounds we have invested" and decide to sell up - you will be heading through the door to administration faster than David Dunn at an all you can eat buffet.

Be careful what you wish for

Hi Hitchin Rover,

I will be there on Saturday supporting the team - unlike many people who regularly post on this LT site.

What I said is that any protest against the owners should take place BEFORE the game.

Are you happy with what our owners have done over the past 2 years?
Are you happy with the way the fans have been treated / ignored?
Are you happy with the sale of our best players?

I am sick and tired of my letters and emails to India, to Singh, to Agnew, to Shaw and even directly to the club - being ignored.
Nobody listens to the fans, nobody cares.

If you are unhapy with the Venkys this may be a one off opportunity to show the owners what the supporters feel.

Vocal protests must be made BEFORE the game, and I suggest that this is done at the main entrance on Nuttall Street.

I do not believe we should protest duing the game and if we leave it until after the match we will probably discover that the Venkys will have left the ground on police advice.

So get down to Ewood early and protest.

Totally the wrong attitude! Should go to the game to SUPPORT THE TEAM, manager and club! Appleton does not need his first home game filled with negative chants

Hi Hitchin Rover,

I will be there on Saturday supporting the team - unlike many people who regularly post on this LT site.

What I said is that any protest against the owners should take place BEFORE the game.

Are you happy with what our owners have done over the past 2 years?
Are you happy with the way the fans have been treated / ignored?
Are you happy with the sale of our best players?

I am sick and tired of my letters and emails to India, to Singh, to Agnew, to Shaw and even directly to the club - being ignored.
Nobody listens to the fans, nobody cares.

If you are unhapy with the Venkys this may be a one off opportunity to show the owners what the supporters feel.

Yes it would seem that a new PR exercise is what has brought them over but if the club is ever going to move on they must be met halfway.

Then switch attention to the match and for the rest of the game support the team as never before and show these fools that we are 100% behind the players. That will clearly show them we support the team but not the regime.

That way we will gain far more credibility as fans and get a clear message across, but keep the two distinct elements separate.

Whilst I would agree that to protest during a game could be detrimental to the team there is no chance of the protesters staying silent. The team should really not be affected by any adverse chanting against the Venky's as they know it is not directed at them. In fact they should be encouraged to know that the fans regard the club as being so important to them that they are prepared to suffer the abuse from the media and other sources as to their actions.
If it means the club goes into adminsitration and ends up out of the leagues then so be it. The real supporters of the club could not care less what league they are in as long as the club is returned to its former reputation.

I totally agree - whilst we want to spend the majority of the game supporting the new manager and players - fans SHOULD let these scum owners have some stick at some point, whether that be before the game or for the 1st min of each half

Also, those who say "Venkys are the only thing standing between us and administration" are only partly correct.

Yes, If Venkys walked out today then we would be in administration but if they continue to run the club as they have been doing then we will be in administration within the next 18 months anyway as the club cannot keep losing revenue whilst failing to cut its costs or increase its revenues - you don't need to be an accountant to work that out - £25m loss for the 2012-2013 trading year is simply unsustainable yet so far they have done almost NOTHING to stem those lossess nor have they put a penny into the club to nulify those lossess (despite what some people continually post on here - Givet82 !!!) - infact the amount of money they charge the club in expenses for them "gracing us with their presence" will take us approx 2 home league games revenue to pay for- UTTER MADNESS !

If things had continued under Walkers Trust we would probably be still mid-table Premiership, and looking forward to the larger TV payments. WT would not have put the club into adminstration,the Phil Jones money would have maintained the status quo financially, and our young lads would have learnt the game alongside experienced professionals like Ryan Nelson. We'd probably only have the 'hoofball' to moan about.

Its a pity that WT were desperate to sell to anyone with the cash, rather than being prepared to wait for the right people to come along, like Bill Kenwright at Everton has done for many years.

At least the 'chicken pluckers' have put a bit of money into the club to buy players like Jordan Rhodes, who looks a buy.
At Birmingham , we are stuck with a crooked bunch of Chinese fraudsters who have bled upwards of 50 million out of the club to prop up their failing businesses in China and looking at selling even more players this January.
Good luck to your boys but spare a thought for clubs with even worse owners.

I must say it is hard to imagine why Venkys haven't listened to those poor long-suffering Blackburn supporters that have :

Barracked a succession of managers.

Become a global laughing stock in the world of football.

Taken abusing their own club to a whole new level.

Taken to the internet and phone ins to abuse the owners and demand the removal of pretty much every single member of the boardroom/backroom staff.

Lets be honest here - should Venkys decide "What the ****, these guys have no respect for the millions of pounds we have invested" and decide to sell up - you will be heading through the door to administration faster than David Dunn at an all you can eat buffet.

Be careful what you wish for

Yesterday they employed a PR firm - WHY ??? - they don't need to hire such a firm - a PR firms job is, basically, to "polish the turd" - if Venkys want to look better in the eyes of Rovers fans, sponsers and the football world in general then its quite simple -

Don't employ a turd polisher ! - just start doing things in a CORRECT fashion - show some humility - appologise for the shambles you've caused - put some CASH into the club and sack those morons Agnew, Shaw and Singh and emply a proper football CEO who has the power to put in his own staff and make proper footballing decisions without having to refer back to some woman sat in an ivory tower in the @rse end of India and who knows NOTHING about fooball !!!

Depending on which side you stand for depends on what you do. On the one hand you pay your twenty quid and do as you say. Not being businessmen and women they think, okay its obvious that the fans aint happy so what shall we do, A) spend another 2 million on PR with another PR firm or B ) Sell up and be looked at as a failure but move on. To be honest I think they would go for A and waste another 2 million which would be better spent on the squad. if going for option B then maybe this is what the missing 10000 have been waiting for, maybe its time for them all to come back when Venkys have gone.
Unfortunately there are no buyers so whats the answer? I don't know but
you seem to be of the philosophy you train a dog by kicking it, come here boy, KICK, come here boy KICK, they may not know anything about football, whereas in your case you just know nothing about anything.
So they haven't attended for nigh on 12 months and the first time an opportunity to open dialogue with them is lost because you kicked them when they came, doesn't make sense to me.

Agreed like them or not Venkys are the only one's stopping us from going into administration! Walkers took years to sell when the club was at its best, what chance of selling now its at its worse? Nobody will want to buy it. So before you wish Venkys out....think about it!

Don't get me wrong it's about time Venky's turned up and were finally made to understand the disaster they have created.

But we have a new manager on show on Saturday, a nervous team and a generally apathetic fan base , and we need to follow up on recent successes and win this game.

We need to be getting behind Appleton and the team full stop, by all means demonstrate after the game if that rocks your boat, especially if we win, but not during the game please.

Because if the boo boys kick off, just like Chelsea, Bolton, West Brom last season, the only winners will be Charlton.

Most people agree on here that they don't like what the owners have done to the club. The owners are not for changing.

These numbers are approximate, but they bought a business worth, say, 25 million, and in two years under their management it is now worth 10 million at best, and has become almost impossible to sell. So in reality, if you cannot sell a business it becomes worthless unless it is making a profit, and we are far from that.
Billionaires interested in football can afford to subsidise their interest. Jack Walker was wealthy enough to fund his team but the Venkys have demonstrated little interest in the sport in England. They are wealthy but not Billionaires. Abramovitch seems to be at every Chelsea match. This will be Mrs Desai's second appearance in two years.
Venkys have a tiger by the tail. They may not know how to correct the situation or to extricate themselves from it. It seems that there are only three possibilities. One - pump in millions and reorganise to get back in the Premiership where all the big money is, or Two - Let the club descend to a level where it will be financially self supporting.with gates of around 12'000, or Three - let the club just slide into administration and claim the loss as a tax writeoff.
Make your own mind up as to which course they will choose. It would certainly help us supporters if Venkys would speak to us and give us their real plans for the future rather than hiring a PR firm. PR has a bad connotation to most people. They are noted more for spin rather than truth.
Highly coincidental that one week after hiring a PR company, Mrs Desai pays an infrequent visit.

You don't sound very proud of your home Modan. Still, it shouldn't be a problem for people on a short visit from the 3rd world, just put a rug down, call for a take-away, and ask all your family to go out for the day.

It's just a shame Britain doesn't have India's levels of poverty, malnutrition, and sex-specific infanticide to make them feel really at home.

Unfortunately the Venky's are the only thing standing between BRFC and almost certain administration. You should be welcoming them with open arms.

VENKY'S IN!

It's impossible to know what they'll do. We all know they got themselves involved something they didn't have the first clue about. That leach Anderson and the likes saw them coming a mile off. The fact they have absolutely no idea about Rovers or football in general suggests to me they'd sell if the right offer came in. Their estimated wealth is about £650 million but I doubt they would even consider pumping any of that into the club given the last two horror years because it is clear they are the absolute opposite type of owner than Jack and have have the exact opposite agenda of Jack. They wanted Venkys name to be big in the western world through the advertising monster that is the Premier League but through a string of catastrophic decisions they have actually made their company an absolute joke. If however we get promoted (and that's a monumental IF) they'd no doubt hold onto BRFC because of the huge financial rewards. I still don't think they 'get it' though. I don't think they will ever quite understand what Rovers means to the fans and the carnage, divide and fallout they have caused. All that tosh when they first came in about Ronaldinho et al set alarm bells ringing but they were just to naive to realise Rovers fans would see right through that bull5h1t. Did madame honestly think Ronaldinho would sign? Had she ever heard of him? Even rhino skin Kean appeared mildly embarrassed at the mention of Champions League. They are brave people in my opinion coming to Ewood because if things go pear shaped early doors against Charlton, the atmosphere will turn poison and no doubt they'll abandon ship. Maybe that's what they need? Maybe they need to witness first hand what havoc they've caused and how despised they are to make them say either enough is enough, or we're going to back the manager with serious funds and mount some sort of promotion charge I'm not holding my breath.............. ....

Still at it I see modan .

Those Bollywood Billionaires have certainly done a good job of dragging one of the countries finest footballing establishments into the gutter with the dilapidated old terrace house unfit for human habitation, benefit scroungers, low paid workers and single parent mums.

You should be proud of them modan.... oh hang on, you are.

Why don't you go and live in India? Maybe you could get a job in one Venkys factories?

What a fantastic excuse for the boo boys to return to Ewood and create their own inimitable and special atmosphere during the game.

Don't get me wrong it's about time Venky's turned up and were finally made to understand the disaster they have created.

But we have a new manager on show on Saturday, a nervous team and a generally apathetic fan base , and we need to follow up on recent successes and win this game.

We need to be getting behind Appleton and the team full stop, by all means demonstrate after the game if that rocks your boat, especially if we win, but not during the game please.

Because if the boo boys kick off, just like Chelsea, Bolton, West Brom last season, the only winners will be Charlton.

Can someone please tell me what you hope to achieve by being nice to Mrs Dseai, when most people don't like what she has caused?

Most people agree on here that they don't like what the owners have done to the club. The owners are not for changing.
In two years they have held onto a drowning manager for ages inevitably taking the club down.
Brought in a global advisor to just say anything, who bought some cheap non descript portugeesers.
Were told by everybody that the club needs experience, and went and got inexperience, sacked, lesson learnt? no, more inexperience.

The more people smile and endure the Venks, the longer they will torture the club and fans. What ever will be will be, but they are not going to learn to run this club properly, and they certainly don't loose sleep over it.

Who is suggesting being "nice" to Venky's you clown?

I think you need to read what I said again.

And I quote "by all means demonstrate after the game if that rocks your boat, especially if we win,."

I want 3 points on Saturday, nothing more, nothing less and demonstrations during the games last season cost us at least 11 points.

I want Venky's to either sort things out or go, just like everyone else does, but you have been hurling abuse at them for two years, where the feck has that got us?

Absolutely bloody nowhere.

I agree with that comment. As it stands with the losses the club is making at the moment Venkys are all that is standing between us and administration. I would agree that they have caused the current problems but I think our efforts would be better put to getting behind the team and help them get 3 points on Saturday. Just my view although I do understand that feelings are running high and many will want to let them have both barrels and I wouldn't condem anyone who wanted to do this. Can't say they don't deserve any abuse they get.

No excuse for staying away this Saturday - get your tickets, get down Ewood and lets all give these Venkys scum a verbal earbashing - just so Mrs D (the invisible woman) is in no doubt what we think of them.

And please don't say "It shows they'll learning" - only the most gulible of Rovers fan can now ever believe such guff.

Yesterday they employed a PR firm - WHY ??? - they don't need to hire such a firm - a PR firms job is, basically, to "polish the turd" - if Venkys want to look better in the eyes of Rovers fans, sponsers and the football world in general then its quite simple -

Don't employ a turd polisher ! - just start doing things in a CORRECT fashion - show some humility - appologise for the shambles you've caused - put some CASH into the club and sack those morons Agnew, Shaw and Singh and emply a proper football CEO who has the power to put in his own staff and make proper footballing decisions without having to refer back to some woman sat in an ivory tower in the @rse end of India and who knows NOTHING about fooball !!!

Depending on which side you stand for depends on what you do. On the one hand you pay your twenty quid and do as you say. Not being businessmen and women they think, okay its obvious that the fans aint happy so what shall we do, A) spend another 2 million on PR with another PR firm or B ) Sell up and be looked at as a failure but move on. To be honest I think they would go for A and waste another 2 million which would be better spent on the squad. if going for option B then maybe this is what the missing 10000 have been waiting for, maybe its time for them all to come back when Venkys have gone.
Unfortunately there are no buyers so whats the answer? I don't know but
you seem to be of the philosophy you train a dog by kicking it, come here boy, KICK, come here boy KICK, they may not know anything about football, whereas in your case you just know nothing about anything.
So they haven't attended for nigh on 12 months and the first time an opportunity to open dialogue with them is lost because you kicked them when they came, doesn't make sense to me.

you seem to say alot without actually saying anything but you always seem to end up insulting your fellow Rovers fans - I see you do it later as well - what a tool you are.

"Open dialogue with Venkys" - hahahaha - now who's in cloud cuckoo land - these people have NEVER conversed with ANYONE - even Paul Hunt complained they wouldnt speak with him and they had appointed him acting CEO of the club.

I do think some people made a fair point to vent our anger at Venkys BEFORE the game then get behind MA and the players, during the game.

But then again, I know nothing about anything so I've probably got that wrong as well.

Still, I'm sure you'll be their on Saturday and you'll do 100% the right thing and every other Rovers fan there (acording to you) will do everything 100% wrong because you're perfect and everyone else never knows anything nor are they allowed an opinion - what an insecure person you are.

Well thats your slant on it, but you do realise that everyone who doesn't want to protest and make the situation worse is being completely ignored by people like yourself, so you are in effect ruining it for me and others and taking away our opinions by riding over it like an over zelous rodeo cowboy, thanks for that. You've had loads of protests going on and where has it got you? I tell you where its got you, families are no longer attending as the language and vitriol shown by a moronic few has ruined what was once a family club with their boot boy bullying tactics up and down like a buch of skinheads from the seventies.
I want no part of your moronic bootboy tactics, you lunatic.

When Jack was alive his philosophy was, what can I do for the Rovers? not what can they do for me. They were not a commercial commodity to be used. But a source of pleasure and pride for thousands of people.

Show your feelings for the owners outside the ground before the game.

Then show your feelings for the club and the team, by supporting BRFC inside the ground for 90 minutes.

Gives everybody the ability to behave in the manner they feel most appropriate, (I suspect many want to do both) without creating more divisions within the crowd or giving the media excuses to call us disloyal to our club.

Those clowns on here who talk about grovelling apologies from our Indian owners need to get in touch with the real world.

It would be an immense shame in all senses of the word if Michael Appleton's first game in charge was overshadowed by futile insults aimed at the owners.

I agree with that comment. As it stands with the losses the club is making at the moment Venkys are all that is standing between us and administration. I would agree that they have caused the current problems but I think our efforts would be better put to getting behind the team and help them get 3 points on Saturday. Just my view although I do understand that feelings are running high and many will want to let them have both barrels and I wouldn't condem anyone who wanted to do this. Can't say they don't deserve any abuse they get.

THEY DID NOT CREATE THE PROBLEM.. ONLY REALISED IT AFTER THEY BOUGHT IT.. THE GREAT THING IS THEY HAVNT RUN AWAY LIKE OTHER OWNERS HAVE..
ANY OF THOSE WHO WANT THEM OUT PLEASE ANSWER 3 SIMPLE QUESTIPONS????
1 WHO HAS THE CLUB RECORD PURCHASE FOR A PLAYER??
2 WHO HAS THE CHEAPEST TICKETS IN OUR DIVISION??
3 WHO HAS THE MOST INTERNATIONALS ON THEIR BOOKS IN THE CHAMPIONSHIP??
THESE ARE FACTS!! FACTS !! NOT MEDIA FANTASY

"They did not create the problem" - what planet do you live on ????

1 - They sacked SA and replaced him with a complete and utter moron and then refused to sack that moron waaaaaay after his sell by date, hence creating an utter toxic atmosphere, creating fans to leave the club in their 1000's, many who will never return and our corporate sponsorship has droped almost 90% since they took-over the club.

2 - They got rid of wonderfull people like John Williams, Tom Finn etc and replaced them with the likes of Agnew and Singh.

3 - They allowed Jerome Anderson to run our transfers - leaving him to rake off around £3.5m in fees and wasting millions on (£2m Petrovic, £2.5m Goodwillie, £6m Dann, £3.5m Formica etc etc).

4- Inevitable relegation followed after 11 solid years in the Premiership.

But of course you are right - Non of it is Venkys fault - its all those nasty fans who complained about all those things who are to blame.

You really are the ultimate MUG PUNTER who refuses to see what is infront of his face - the entire world can see Venkys are a walking disaster area except you - don't you think that probably means you are wrong (er 20 billion who think Venkys are morons and 1, you, who think they have been wonderfull,mis-under

stood, owners !!!)

Show your feelings for the owners outside the ground before the game.

Then show your feelings for the club and the team, by supporting BRFC inside the ground for 90 minutes.

Gives everybody the ability to behave in the manner they feel most appropriate, (I suspect many want to do both) without creating more divisions within the crowd or giving the media excuses to call us disloyal to our club.

I agree with you greenscreener, I just know if things start to go t1ts up and we concede early doors feelings will turn nasty. Ewoods been such an edgy place these last couple of years, add to that the cause of all the carnage are going to be sat in the ground and it makes for a potential poison atmosphere.

That said, if we show positive early signs, create some good early chances and maybe score an early goal, the focus will be taken away from those w4nkers and the atmosphere might just be a positive one. It's a bit of a catch 22 really. Of course we want the lads to play well, create a positive healthy feeling in the ground and take 3 points but we don't want madame b0llocks and her cronies to think all is well or be manipulated by Shebby Shertting and his lip service trash talk. We want them to know they are responsible for ripping the heart and soul out of our football club.

I suppose the best result would be to destroy Charlton 5-0 with 20 mins to go and then chant Venkys out for the rest of the game! That'd confuse the f*ck out of em!
Actually, if we 5-0 up that'd confuse the f*ck out of me aswell!

If theres, any hope they'll sell up, theyd do it when the club is in the premier league when its worth something.Protest at Appletons first game, the team will be dis-spirited,lose again, and it'll be the same as under kean and berg. But what would i know, I'm not a real fan like you protestors...

Neither I.

"Traitors" I think is what the protest lobby of absentees call us. Of course, its the right thing to do if all you dream of is fan ownership, even if it means slipping into administration and the lower leagues to achieve it.

Meanwhile the "traitors" that we are will continue to support the new manager and team.

How despicable are we huh?

Don't get me wrong it's about time Venky's turned up and were finally made to understand the disaster they have created.

But we have a new manager on show on Saturday, a nervous team and a generally apathetic fan base , and we need to follow up on recent successes and win this game.

We need to be getting behind Appleton and the team full stop, by all means demonstrate after the game if that rocks your boat, especially if we win, but not during the game please.

Because if the boo boys kick off, just like Chelsea, Bolton, West Brom last season, the only winners will be Charlton.

Can someone please tell me what you hope to achieve by being nice to Mrs Dseai, when most people don't like what she has caused?

Most people agree on here that they don't like what the owners have done to the club. The owners are not for changing.
In two years they have held onto a drowning manager for ages inevitably taking the club down.
Brought in a global advisor to just say anything, who bought some cheap non descript portugeesers.
Were told by everybody that the club needs experience, and went and got inexperience, sacked, lesson learnt? no, more inexperience.

The more people smile and endure the Venks, the longer they will torture the club and fans. What ever will be will be, but they are not going to learn to run this club properly, and they certainly don't loose sleep over it.

Who is suggesting being "nice" to Venky's you clown?

I think you need to read what I said again.

And I quote "by all means demonstrate after the game if that rocks your boat, especially if we win,."

I want 3 points on Saturday, nothing more, nothing less and demonstrations during the games last season cost us at least 11 points.

I want Venky's to either sort things out or go, just like everyone else does, but you have been hurling abuse at them for two years, where the feck has that got us?

Absolutely bloody nowhere.

Less of the clown, I haven't joined the circus.
Why is it that when another opinion is brought forward you have to insult?

You want Venks to sort things, like they have been sorting things already?
Now look who's the clown.

If the outcome is Venks can't handle the club which means they have to let go, better they let go whilst there is still something to build on than for them to keep making massive mistakes, then selling some asset to make up for it.whilst everybody sits on their hands and watches.

Blackburn have not been led by such a minger since the days Alan Shearer was leading out the team. I would save the money from the PR lovies and spend it on radical cosmetic surgery for Mrs D instead, That's good advice Mrs D. Please send £2m in the post by return.

So you can dish out insults but not take them? LOL LOL LOL. Even little, tiny ones, bloody hell I don't even think your average Burnley fan would have fallen for that one. LOL.

If you and the rest of the boo boys actually bother to turn up it won't be to support Rovers it will be to vent your spleen at Venky's.

I seem to remember the last time that happened they disappeared for several months and left Kean running everything.

The £850 million or so that someone else quoted earlier is chicken feed to Venky's, the main part of their portfolio covering pharmaceutics world wide is actually closer to £9 billion when you take into account the assets.

£25 million or £10 million for Rovers in that context? not even pocket money.

These are not stupid people, it is quite possible they have realised their mistakes and are trying to put things right.

But putting myself in their position on Saturday, remembering what happened last time they were here, I would seriously consider pulling the plug if there was a repeat.

Simple question, if someone was continually screaming abuse at you would you;

a - do what they want
b - scream abuse back
c - tell them to get stuffed and walk away.

They won't do a-, they can't do b-, that only leaves c-.

And you really, really think BRAG and BRSIT are in any position or even remotely capable of picking up the pieces?

Unfortunately FT, Dingles aren't the only ones creaming themselves hoping Rovers go into administration. Plenty of no hope glory seekers hoping to be the next Shebby in a fan owned fantasy football scenario, where one gets to walk around town brimming with pride with their "Shareholder" status, newly acquired from yesterday's giro as they drunkenly stumble around announcing repeatedly, to anyone who cares to listen, that they are indeed on their way to the AGM. Very Impotent Pillox that they are.

You can almost picture it in their heads..

Outside the ground protests, inside the ground anti-Venky's chanting. Guaranteed loss, Point proven about Appleton's inexperienced appointment being a mistake.

Job done. Back home to gloat on your "I told you so" foresight on every available Rovers forum and drum up more disenchantment and division with any fans who don't agree, whilst continuously blaming Venky's and looking for more inventive ways of pronouncing their names and hurling more "indian" riddled insults (because 1bn people are obviously to blame for Venky's).

More failed results.. More disenchantment and frustration of players.. Looking desperate now.. Only a few more shoves needed to send the whole melting pot over the edge.. Throw a few more Shaw/Agnew/SEM conspiracies online to create more doubt..

Finally Put a few bob on the bookies as you smugly watch the club sink into administration, patting yourself on the back that the club will come out stronger for it and we will restore Jack's legacy under the newly formed fan owned club.

Who needs Venky's?

Champions league here we come!

Excellent post blueblooded.

That is exactly what will happen, OK BRAG and BRSIT might attempt to reform Rovers under another name (they can't use Blackburn Rovers again), but they won't have a ground or any facilities.

And whatever they come up with it won't be Rovers in my eyes, that is why I have withdrawn my support and potential investment from BRSIT.

But I will be down there on Saturday, weather permitting, supporting my team, hopefully not for the last time.

Show your feelings for the owners outside the ground before the game.

Then show your feelings for the club and the team, by supporting BRFC inside the ground for 90 minutes.

Gives everybody the ability to behave in the manner they feel most appropriate, (I suspect many want to do both) without creating more divisions within the crowd or giving the media excuses to call us disloyal to our club.

I agree with you greenscreener, I just know if things start to go t1ts up and we concede early doors feelings will turn nasty. Ewoods been such an edgy place these last couple of years, add to that the cause of all the carnage are going to be sat in the ground and it makes for a potential poison atmosphere.

That said, if we show positive early signs, create some good early chances and maybe score an early goal, the focus will be taken away from those w4nkers and the atmosphere might just be a positive one. It's a bit of a catch 22 really. Of course we want the lads to play well, create a positive healthy feeling in the ground and take 3 points but we don't want madame b0llocks and her cronies to think all is well or be manipulated by Shebby Shertting and his lip service trash talk. We want them to know they are responsible for ripping the heart and soul out of our football club.

I suppose the best result would be to destroy Charlton 5-0 with 20 mins to go and then chant Venkys out for the rest of the game! That'd confuse the f*ck out of em!
Actually, if we 5-0 up that'd confuse the f*ck out of me aswell!

Frankly, me too.

The problem is I actually still give a 5hit about Blackburn Rovers. I relate to those who say stay away, as I relate to those who say back the team. We all stood under the concrete together on the old Blckburn End and i can't believe these ignorant, arrogant gits have divided us like this.

We will all do our own thing on Saturday, but Ewood Park has 40 years of memories for me, I would like to think this isn't going to be one of the worst.

Aye, but in those days everybody swopped around at half time and crossed over on the Riverside half way line.....those were the days. There's many on this site who don't know what they have missed. Mind you, who knows, if the Venkys continue on their downwards slide, those threadbare days (but weren't we happy?) may return. I wish.. In fact, I might even pay the milk bill!.

It would be an immense shame in all senses of the word if Michael Appleton's first game in charge was overshadowed by futile insults aimed at the owners.

Glad you like the anecdotes RTH - I like many others on here have absolutely zillions of stories after supporting the Rovers for over 50 years....

I remember that back in the early seventies Leicester City were the first club to come to Ewood who had fans that wore Harringtons and Crombies and DM's and braces and had Skinhead haircuts....really strange looking (to us) but quite 'hard' fans who gave the Rovers a bit of a chasing on the Darwen End that day.

During the sixties and very early seventies most Rovers fans behind the goals were 'Greasers/Rockers' still with studded Leather Jackets (as were most Lancashire Club teams like Blackpool, PNE, Burnley and Bolton) and greased back hair. It was Ewood on a Saturday afternoon and then round the Barbary Coast on a Saturday night. Great pubs and great music on the jukeboxes...bit rough later in the night though!

Innocent days before Murdoch created SKY which begat greedy Agents and greedy footballers who corrupted our national sport....

There you go I've given Apple-head his post match excuses , when what he should be saying is "yes we were poor, but no matter because I'm out of my depth, only came here because Shaw offered me more money than Oyston , I'm a yes man, won't answer back or offer any of my opinions & I'll spin it out until I get the bullet and they find another mug to jump on the gravy train"

What a quality fan you are. You are slating Appleton before he has even had one game and sound like you are actually looking forward to a hostile environment. No doubt you will blend in with the other plebs that will be there wanting to do the same thing. What about and this is just an idea, going to Ewood to support the team and get another 3 points. I suppose that would be out of the question.

What a fantastic excuse for the boo boys to return to Ewood and create their own inimitable and special atmosphere during the game.

Don't get me wrong it's about time Venky's turned up and were finally made to understand the disaster they have created.

But we have a new manager on show on Saturday, a nervous team and a generally apathetic fan base , and we need to follow up on recent successes and win this game.

We need to be getting behind Appleton and the team full stop, by all means demonstrate after the game if that rocks your boat, especially if we win, but not during the game please.

Because if the boo boys kick off, just like Chelsea, Bolton, West Brom last season, the only winners will be Charlton.

Can someone please tell me what you hope to achieve by being nice to Mrs Dseai, when most people don't like what she has caused?

Most people agree on here that they don't like what the owners have done to the club. The owners are not for changing.
In two years they have held onto a drowning manager for ages inevitably taking the club down.
Brought in a global advisor to just say anything, who bought some cheap non descript portugeesers.
Were told by everybody that the club needs experience, and went and got inexperience, sacked, lesson learnt? no, more inexperience.

The more people smile and endure the Venks, the longer they will torture the club and fans. What ever will be will be, but they are not going to learn to run this club properly, and they certainly don't loose sleep over it.

Who is suggesting being "nice" to Venky's you clown?

I think you need to read what I said again.

And I quote "by all means demonstrate after the game if that rocks your boat, especially if we win,."

I want 3 points on Saturday, nothing more, nothing less and demonstrations during the games last season cost us at least 11 points.

I want Venky's to either sort things out or go, just like everyone else does, but you have been hurling abuse at them for two years, where the feck has that got us?

Absolutely bloody nowhere.

Less of the clown, I haven't joined the circus.
Why is it that when another opinion is brought forward you have to insult?

You want Venks to sort things, like they have been sorting things already?
Now look who's the clown.

If the outcome is Venks can't handle the club which means they have to let go, better they let go whilst there is still something to build on than for them to keep making massive mistakes, then selling some asset to make up for it.whilst everybody sits on their hands and watches.

So you can dish out insults but not take them? LOL LOL LOL. Even little, tiny ones, bloody hell I don't even think your average Burnley fan would have fallen for that one. LOL.

If you and the rest of the boo boys actually bother to turn up it won't be to support Rovers it will be to vent your spleen at Venky's.

I seem to remember the last time that happened they disappeared for several months and left Kean running everything.

The £850 million or so that someone else quoted earlier is chicken feed to Venky's, the main part of their portfolio covering pharmaceutics world wide is actually closer to £9 billion when you take into account the assets.

£25 million or £10 million for Rovers in that context? not even pocket money.

These are not stupid people, it is quite possible they have realised their mistakes and are trying to put things right.

But putting myself in their position on Saturday, remembering what happened last time they were here, I would seriously consider pulling the plug if there was a repeat.

Simple question, if someone was continually screaming abuse at you would you;

a - do what they want
b - scream abuse back
c - tell them to get stuffed and walk away.

They won't do a-, they can't do b-, that only leaves c-.

And you really, really think BRAG and BRSIT are in any position or even remotely capable of picking up the pieces?

And you really, really think BRAG and BRSIT are in any position or even remotely capable of picking up the pieces?

As an Indian Venkys are worth £2 Bilion in assets not the £9 Billion as you quoted.
The biggest companys in India are TATA $100 Billion
Reliance £68 Billion
INDIAN OIL CORPRATION $41 BILLION
BIRLAS $40 BILLION
Bharat petroleum $40 Billion
Indias richest men
Ambani £23 billion
Laxmi Mittal £17.5billion

I think its worth repeating the strategy many have said could unite Rovers fans for this match.

Show your feelings for the owners outside the ground before the game.

Then show your feelings for the club and the team, by supporting BRFC inside the ground for 90 minutes.

Gives everybody the ability to behave in the manner they feel most appropriate, (I suspect many want to do both) without creating more divisions within the crowd or giving the media excuses to call us disloyal to our club.

I agree with you greenscreener, I just know if things start to go t1ts up and we concede early doors feelings will turn nasty. Ewoods been such an edgy place these last couple of years, add to that the cause of all the carnage are going to be sat in the ground and it makes for a potential poison atmosphere.

That said, if we show positive early signs, create some good early chances and maybe score an early goal, the focus will be taken away from those w4nkers and the atmosphere might just be a positive one. It's a bit of a catch 22 really. Of course we want the lads to play well, create a positive healthy feeling in the ground and take 3 points but we don't want madame b0llocks and her cronies to think all is well or be manipulated by Shebby Shertting and his lip service trash talk. We want them to know they are responsible for ripping the heart and soul out of our football club.

I suppose the best result would be to destroy Charlton 5-0 with 20 mins to go and then chant Venkys out for the rest of the game! That'd confuse the f*ck out of em!
Actually, if we 5-0 up that'd confuse the f*ck out of me aswell!

Frankly, me too.

The problem is I actually still give a 5hit about Blackburn Rovers. I relate to those who say stay away, as I relate to those who say back the team. We all stood under the concrete together on the old Blckburn End and i can't believe these ignorant, arrogant gits have divided us like this.

We will all do our own thing on Saturday, but Ewood Park has 40 years of memories for me, I would like to think this isn't going to be one of the worst.


On a lighter note did you enjoy Modans latest classic raving, a few rovers references, a full on broadcast on behalf of the Indian Supremacist Party, and finish with a token rovers comment.

odan and Roverspal1, they must be related.

Dont forget those among us who stood together (very closely) under the asbestos roof on the Darwen End long before the Blackburn Enders were even thought of Greenscreener.....

Aye, but in those days everybody swopped around at half time and crossed over on the Riverside half way line.....those were the days. There's many on this site who don't know what they have missed. Mind you, who knows, if the Venkys continue on their downwards slide, those threadbare days (but weren't we happy?) may return. I wish.. In fact, I might even pay the milk bill!.

it all made for some 'interesting' meetings on the Riverside with opposition fans at half time...though we often stayed on the Darren End for the second half also so we could 'welcome' the visiting fans properly :-)

Gotta say guys i'm loving the war-stories.

Glad you like the anecdotes RTH - I like many others on here have absolutely zillions of stories after supporting the Rovers for over 50 years....

I remember that back in the early seventies Leicester City were the first club to come to Ewood who had fans that wore Harringtons and Crombies and DM's and braces and had Skinhead haircuts....really strange looking (to us) but quite 'hard' fans who gave the Rovers a bit of a chasing on the Darwen End that day.

During the sixties and very early seventies most Rovers fans behind the goals were 'Greasers/Rockers' still with studded Leather Jackets (as were most Lancashire Club teams like Blackpool, PNE, Burnley and Bolton) and greased back hair. It was Ewood on a Saturday afternoon and then round the Barbary Coast on a Saturday night. Great pubs and great music on the jukeboxes...bit rough later in the night though!

Innocent days before Murdoch created SKY which begat greedy Agents and greedy footballers who corrupted our national sport....

FR you are rolling back the years, its a long time since I heard anybody refer to the Barbary Coast.

Legs o' Man - now there was a rough pub ! What I would give to watch the Venkys walk in there on a Friday night with their London PR men and Modan in tow.

My only memory of the old Darwen End roof was some dingle retard going up it, on it and then crashing through it into the snack bar. Must have been late 70's.

Not so innocent those days really, just a different attitude, and there wasn't cameras everywhere gathering evidence. If you stepped out of line, and we all did, you knew you could get 'slapped' And if you did, you took it, you didn't go whining about 'my rights' and compensation.

Do you seriously expect people not to voice opinions on what we"ve had to put up with, with these dispicable owners and their non stop lunacy at our club.I say make up your own mind, but this club will never be the same whils these faudsters are still here. VENKYS SCUM OUT

I for one am grateful that we have Venky's.....yes you read that right. They certainly have their failings but have you ever stopped and thought where we would have been under the Walker Trust....I think administration would have already happened, the money for transfers had dried up some time previous. At least we have a BRFC to support
