Blackburn Rovers face fight to keep defender Givet

FRENCH INTEREST Gael Givet FRENCH INTEREST Gael Givet

BLACKBURN Rovers will face a summer battle to keep hold of fans’ favourite Gael Givet – even if they manage to salvage their Premier League status.

The Frenchman’s former club Monaco are understood to be ready to launch an attempt to lure him back ‘home’, while there is also interest from the top flight in France and the Premier League.

Rovers boss Steve Kean though insists all talks about the future are on hold while the club fight to secure Premier League survival.

Owners Venky’s were in attendance at Ewood Park to see Tuesday’s defeat at home to Liverpool but Kean was adamant survival remains the only focus.

Givet will be hoping for a return to Rovers’ starting line-up in tomorrow’s crucial trip to Swansea City, with midweek results leaving Kean’s men three points adrift of safety.

Sources close to the player, while insisting he is fully focused on the relegation battle ahead, have told the Lancashire Telegraph Givet would consider pursuing a new challenge next season - with a return to France on the radar.

Monaco failed in an attempt to sign their former player last summer but, after a disappointing season in the second tier of French football, are set to move again for Givet - who enjoyed seven years there from 2000.

He is understood to prefer a move to a top flight club either in England or France though, with several suitors believed to be tracking his situation with interest.

Givet has surprisingly been left on Rovers’ substitutes bench over the last couple of games upon his return from injury and suspension, with Kean persevering with Scott Dann and Grant Hanley in the centre of the defence.

The Rovers boss though only last week stressed Givet will have a key role to play in the relegation run-in, with the 30-year-old expected to make a first team return at the Liberty Stadium.

The 2010 player’s player of the season’s versatility is likely to be called upon, with Kean having the option to use him at left back or centre back in Wales tomorrow.

Rovers will fight to keep hold of Givet at Ewood this summer although relegation would inevitably bring his future into even greater doubt.

Should the worst happen, Rovers know a number of their top players - including Junior Hoilett, Steven Nzonzi, Martin Olsson, Yakubu and Paul Robinson - will come under greater scrutiny from rivals.

Kean said about Venky’s visit: “We had a board meeting that had been scheduled for three months.What we've always felt is that it was right to wait and get the points sorted out.

“Then we can decide who's going to be coming in and who's going out. We need to concentrate on the remaining games and getting the points required.

“Then, at the end of the season, we can sit down and have discussions about budgets, who we can bring in and who will be going out.”

Wins for Wigan and QPR on Wednesday night leave Rovers three points adrift of safety with just five games to play, ahead of tomorrow’s trip to the Liberty Stadium.

"We have Chelsea and Tottenham away, but we also feel we can get something from Swansea this weekend, said Kean.

“The two home games, against Norwich and Wigan, as well as away at Swansea, are the ones where we will be looking to pick up most of our points from.

“The other two,Chelsea and Tottenham, will be tough games. The one against Wigan is looking like a really big one. The TV people have already realised that, which is why they have made it a Monday night game. It's going to be huge."

Stop writing about total lies coming out of Kean's mouth. Do something for the fans like getting the truth out of what the owners are doing to our club.

There is obviously a policy to get rid of senior players by Venkys , not Keen.
BRFC will not stay up , so Givet will be off anyway , as will a lot of others.
Venkys are only interested in coaching for India.
does that mean selling the training pitch , ground etc , to get a return ?

You couldn't make it up could you, maybe if we heard a bit of good news coming out of Ewood for a change, you know, Today Steve Kean announced he was leaving Blackburn Rovers to pursue other openings that Jerome has found for him. Now that would be worth hearing about

I will be surprised if anyone will want to stay next season if these numbskulls are still here along with their bulls*%ting muppet. And let there be no doubt we will be in the championship next season as we have no backbone left in the team. I also fear for the future of the club whilst the Lying and deceitful owners are here, gates will drop as the fans stay away totaly disillusioned with the catastrophic and sickening catalogue of events that they have witnessed over the last eighteen months.

Yep, I would believe Ronald McDonalds version of anything before I would believe Steve Kean. Nobody that knows a football is round would leave Givet on the bench and put the useless Dann on instead if there werent other motives. I have faith in the truth though and I hold hope that at some stage the truth about Kean and Venkys will be revealed somewhere.

Another senior player treated like dirt by our once proud club.

Also nice of our so wise manager to suggest we've already decided we're going to lose to Chelsea and Spurs and just go for wins against those around us. It's worked out so well so far. "six winnable games" rings a bell........

Please leave for the good of everyone!

I won’t be renewing my season ticket. Just like Samba I signed my contract with the club for this season on the back of their worthless promises of investment and coming glory. I’m not going to contribute any more towards the development of football in India. I really fear that the club is doomed to complete oblivion. Ewood Park will eventually become a housing estate. There’s no asset value in Ewood Park as a stadium. They are not going to be able to sell it on intact to any other club are they. But what am I now going to do on match days? I’ll still have a need to have a club to support in common with fellow absenters. I don’t really care at what level they’re at as long we are able to continue to share our common passion. I suppose some of us will drift towards Chorley and others to Stanley, who would be my obvious alternative. Those that do will no doubt be rooting for them but without the same passion. The problem is that this would involve both a split amongst the thousands of dissenting fans and an agonising switch of allegiances. The only solution for me would be the formation of a new club, eg Ewood Rovers FC. They could still play in blue & white halves and would have a potential ready made support base of several thousand Blackburn people with available gate money. And I’m sure there would be significant local sponsorship available. I know it’s easy for me to come up with a suggestion like this. The hard part would be for someone else to do the organising. Anyone out there willing to get things going? The future starts now. RIP BRFC.

Thanks for everything Gael. You've done a sterling job for us, when you were given the chance.

Don't blame you one bit for leaving the rotten sinking ship that BRFC has become.

The shysters in charge don't care. They are only interested in lining their own pockets. That's why I for one, among many more l suspect, will not be renewing my season ticket until Venkys et al are no more than a distant memory.

One day the truth will come out!

Me too....i will not step foot in Ewood again till at least Kean is sacked....I am sure there are thousands with the same thoughts. This is the only way to save the club. If nobody pays to support their asset stripping exercise then Venky's may have to sell sooner rather than later. If Jack Walker was alive he'd have frog marched Kean and Anderson out long ago...in fact he would never have employed their shameful and despicable services in the first place...FACT!!!

I agree STC

We've had our run in's me & you on here but, I agree entirely with what you say.

Hanging on to hope that this situation would never materialize as proved to be pure folly on my B&W heart. Now that the blinkers are off and one that I never ever wished upon me is heartbreaking. That said, I am off the mind that BRFC will be resurrected and our history will be restored in the not to distant future.

I will never forgive this lot for the way they have turned supporter on supporter and more importantly denying me the option to attend and watch my beloved BRFC.

The Rovers as we knew is dead as far as im concerned, it died the day Venkys took over, as fans we cant win, if we get relegated i believe kean will stay, if we stay up kean will stay. As long as venkys are here this nightmere will continue i actually believe if the current set up exsists, we will nose dive down the league Sheffield Wednesday style. All Venkys had to do was to install a decent manager keep the board in place and all would be rosey. I just dont understand why they have placed all there trust in such an inept baffoon like kean bizzare, perhaps this assest stripping rumour is true i didnt believe it at first but its looking likley.

atleast we might get wembley day outs if we fall,look at sheffields just a positive thought
id go all the way to the conference if it meant kean and venkys werent here and we had a local backer

Why doesn't Steve Kean just admit it:

'Well I couldn't believe it, I had just been sacked by my local Cub football team and was in my new career as a lollipop lady when a kind Indian Man stopped in his chicken delivery van and offered me a job as a football club manager. i was obviously delighted and when the owners explained that when people boo and hiss at you that is them showing their upmost support for the things that you do. We brought in one of those machines off the national lottery which we put the player squad numbers in and spin, obviously some of the players were causing the fans to cheer and clap and some showed a bit too much promise in training, so obviously their numbers don't go into the machine.'

Yes supporting this shower of absolute b*llocks has finally driven me insane.

I tell you what Bazzer seeing Ewood Park empty would be the best sight I could witness while this utter disgraceful situation continues. This would, imo, show the outside world and most importantly 'that lot' it is not acceptable one iota.

Believe it or not I still hold a glimmer of hope that they have a plan for this situation but, the proof is in the pudding, sort of speak !

We are or the club is in the grip of being ruled with an iron rod.

It weighs 1500 tons backed with a multi-million pound industry !

I believe clause(s) have been added into players contracts with what is in essence gagging orders on expressing any negative press.

This situation is a disgusting manipulation of the truth in the name of continued success at BRFC.

One aspect that struck me from the off over Kean was that he did not take criticism well if at all.

Someone once said:

'If Adolf Hitler flew in today they'd send a limousine anyway'

Sums things up for me perfectly !

They may as well be written in snow ! They are fudging around the whole sorry mess in the name of the framework they work in. Isn't it about time they restructured the 'fit & proper' feasibility ?

Gael Givet, a proper central defender, not a world beater but certainly good enough for BRFC. A true stopper, who should be leading and talking Hanley through games, like Ryan would have done. (As an aside, I maintain Rovers lacked leadership on the field the minute Samba was given the armband).
The buffoon who talks about defending better should start with keeping & picking his best defenders and organizing a proper midfield in front of them.

We picked up no points against Bolton and West Brom, that's where we went wrong. What happens if we lose to Swansea....you have a habit of forfeiting in South Wales? We have to fight for points in every match. As for Mike England, I remember him as being the first deserter of the sinking ship. Come on Rovers, fans and players, FIGHT FOR SURVIVAL.

Once relegated, I foresee a mass exodus; Robinson, Givet, Dann, Olsson, N'Zonzi, Formica, Rochina, Hoilett and Yak of the players worth a pinch of salt.

We can only hope the likes of Goodwillie, Vukcevic, Goulon, Ribeiro, Petrovic and Dunn will be shown the door along with Grella and Salgado - though i fear they won't.

I just hope that at least one of those players has the bottle vindicate Rovers fans by shedding light to the footballing community what has been going on at this club.

does that mean selling the training pitch , ground etc , to get a return ?

No. They never was given the option to buy the football pitch...thankfully that at least is still in Walker trust's hands for concerts etc.

I can't believe its come down to three games for Kean to save the club.

Tottenham and Chelsea I can't see us winning. Swansea this week will not be a walk over.

If we lose this week I must ask why he is still here?

Interesting to see the comments about Givet - it simply shows in one player how far we have fallen and how fast.

12 months ago noone would have blinked an eyelid if he was on the bench.

Kean Out!
Hoofy Luvvies Out!
Venkys Out!

Cannot see Givet staying. Clearly it's Venky's policy to clear out all the high earners. Why else would Nelson be let go for nowt? I cannot believe this was Keen's wish. So why are the LET not asking what the f... is going on. Keen is Venky's puppet. Venky's have no chance of using Rovers to promote football in India if we go down. So what are they playing at? The only answer that makes sense to me is that they finally realised that there was no chance of getting us into Europe without spending loads of cash and, unwilling to spend any cash, have decided to asset strip.

And as for all those fair weather supporters threatening not to come back next season - shame on you. "Where were you when we were s...? When you've followed the team from Division 1 down to Division 3 and back again and thought the Full Members Cup was as good as it would ever get I might just listen to you.

40 years in my case and always had a season ticket, but I have not been to Ewood since 20th December and will not return until Kean has gone and we get some honest answers from Venky's as to their plans. I have sent many e.mails and letters to the club but simply get propaganda back and get told to get behind the team, the only way I can let the club know how I feel is stay away, I suggested to Paul Hunt that the club contact all the stay away fans and ask them why, but I did not get a reply to that, they are either THICK or simple do not want to know the truth. It breaks my heart not going to the match any more and going to Tesco an a saturday afternoon is no comfort, but lets be honest, with this lot in charge Ewood will be a Tesco in 10 years time and Brockhall will be a housing estate, oh, and Venky's will be several million pounds richer. For the long term good of this once glorious club stay away and hurt Venky's where it really hurts, in their pocket.

Quite right. At the end of the day, as well as being fans, we are/were PAYING CUSTOMERS. If any other business treat their customers with such contempt, they would go bust.

I cannot believe the lies and bullsh*t they have come out with over the last eighteen months, and people have already bought season tickets for next season. They must have a screw loose.

If people really want shut of these DIRTY ROTTEN SCOUNDREL'S, there is only one way to do it: STARVE THEM OF CASH!

definitly not renewing my season ticket or my sons. neither are my 2 mates or their 2 sons. and we lost the 5 lads that came with us also last year. i bumped into my old friend from over 100 away games in the 80s/90s the other week and he doesnt go any more. the 2 die hards we spoke to who sat behind us all last season arent their. of the 30 or so Season ticket holders i knew i can think of about 5 that may, and i mean MAY renew. but its all peanuts to the money anderson is making from reaping our club. and kean is 100% in on this scam. Venkeys are just unwitting investors who have made their money back and more and are doing the bare minimum (turning up at LFC match) to keep up the pretence that they are involved in any decision making process when they arent, its actually all anderson hiding behind the stooge kean. hence all the threats of court action. so he can continue to milk the club via agents fees, unwarranted wages to his talentless no-mark son, a reduction in the wage bill thus freeing up our PL payments and doubtless upcoming parachute payments to be kept by Venkys (or actually some to Venkys and lots to Anderson). But all this is only my opinion of course. im only guessing. im not saying its fact. i might end up in court. but its why im not renewing my season ticket until these parasites have gone. we will be ruined by then. but itll be rovers again. until that day im out. Thanks Jerome. may you rot in hell along with all those involved - thats including Kean too. and im not actually bothered about relegation. or losing every week. its just the nature of how its being done - for a disconnected, uncaring, ruthless profit. again thats just my opinion!

Anybody on the staff who is paid more than a pittance or is up to Prem. standard will be sold as some as possible, even if we stay up. The Venkys are still so short term that they cannot resist a quick profit. They obviously do not realise the simple fact of football live, that the better the player the higher the wages and that if you want to be succesful you need to keep your best players.
If we stay up it will be hand to mouth all next season with Kean full rubbish and the quality of the staff contiually dropping untiul we are in League One.

You think you can get something from Swansea then do you Mr Kean? Well let me tell you, I don't think you can. A draw would be no good in the current situation and the chances of a win are as likely as you telling the truth.

Exactly.

No rovers fan has an issue with the relegation we've been there before and worse.
BUT....the way it is being conceived is stomach churning and how anyone can pay to sit and watch it unfold is beyond my comprehension.

Quite right. 38 years in my case.
This is the first season I have not been down to ewood since 1954.There has been good and awful times in those years but never have I felt so depressed and a feeling of loss of trust than in the current con merchants. DON,T BUY YOUR ST OUR TIME HAS COME

1958 for me Sherwood, my dad started taking me the year we got promoted to the first division along with Charlton Athletic.

I hate whats gone on with our beloved club since the slimy Walkers Trust sold us to the India Fakirs.

But even for me (living away from Blackburn for quite a while now) it is still a terrible feeling watching the club I love implode and fall apart and kill everything that was built before.

I really envy the Rovers fans who can get to matches and support the club every week...and I also respect the fans that choose not to go as a way of protesting at the rotten set-up.

But I must admit that I was back home then I would be one of those who would be still watching the Rovers - even despite who owned the club or who managed it.

Yes I would vent my feelings at their ineptitude and ignorance and systematic looting of our club and I would protest as loudly as anyone - but I would still be there if I could be.

Even if we end up playing sunday league football down at Pleasington, then I would be there still. As it would still be my club, the club I supported all my life, the club that has been part of mine and my families life for over 50 years. The club will live-on and still be around (in some form) long after the Kean and Venky Fakirs have crawled away back down the drainhole that they emerged from and belong in.

I'm afraid people will still attend Ewood next season. Unbelievably, some people have already bought season tickets! And as long as these simpletons keep giving money to the SCUM, the destruction of this once proud club will continue.

STARVE THEM OF CASH!
I am a simpleton,i can't really concentrate on more than one team at a time.
This is why i have a season ticket.
I don't have Sky because i can only seem to be able to digest short highlights like those on Match of the Day,my brain just can't absorb all the information.
I did though manage to read an article which seemed to suggest that Rovers would get some thing like £40 million this season from Sky tv,with season ticket sales paying for a pair of Colleen Rooney's shoes.

This article about Givet; whether he plays for the club or not next season is quite unbelievable. When the club is relegated in a few weeks time, football at Ewood Park becomes a completely different ball game. The club have surrendered their place in the Premier League and instead play in a second tier with little or no prospects for promotion. The damage the Venkys have done to this football club is criminal and they have not finished. In any other era these wretched people would be run out of town because that is what they deserve. If Givet goes or not is neither here or there really; I would expect him to leave. After all why should he stay. The Venkys have pretty awful reputation which is known throughout football are not nice people to work for and therefore decent players will be away. The added problem is that decent players will not be attracted to play for this club until the Venkys go. There a number of fine football clubs to play for; I see an invigorated Jason Roberts has scored again for Reading tonight. Well done Jason. For me the sooner the Venkys sell the better because as long as they continue to be involved this club has no chance to re-invent itself.

Did the article mention that teams in the Championship don't get 40million and rely on tickets sales? Sadly the only thing Venky's value is money. Understand why you're not happy with the simpleton tag though.

Once it is again BRFC in Div 1 or wherever I will return.

I would hope most see it as this in order to 'clear their concience' in thinking they are abandoning 'their?' team.
It stopped being our team when Venkys arrived.

Do not want to sound patronising, but we did not go up with Charlton in 1958. We beat them 4-3 when a draw would have kept us down and Charlton would have gone up. I was there, but I was too young to appreciate it all!!!

For me its 1963, so I've seen a few like yourselves.
In that time we have seen good and bad times (in terms of position in the leagues.
BUT, at no point did I feel detached from the club and its ambitions.
I also felt appreciated as a supporter.
Under Venkys you are just a paying punter being allowed to watch Venkys Football Club.
I have walked away form this 'new' club.
My allegiance is to BRFC and I await their 'resurrection'.

1958 for me Sherwood, my dad started taking me the year we got promoted to the first division along with Charlton Athletic. I hate whats gone on with our beloved club since the slimy Walkers Trust sold us to the India Fakirs. But even for me (living away from Blackburn for quite a while now) it is still a terrible feeling watching the club I love implode and fall apart and kill everything that was built before. I really envy the Rovers fans who can get to matches and support the club every week...and I also respect the fans that choose not to go as a way of protesting at the rotten set-up. But I must admit that I was back home then I would be one of those who would be still watching the Rovers - even despite who owned the club or who managed it. Yes I would vent my feelings at their ineptitude and ignorance and systematic looting of our club and I would protest as loudly as anyone - but I would still be there if I could be. Even if we end up playing sunday league football down at Pleasington, then I would be there still. As it would still be my club, the club I supported all my life, the club that has been part of mine and my families life for over 50 years. The club will live-on and still be around (in some form) long after the Kean and Venky Fakirs have crawled away back down the drainhole that they emerged from and belong in.
Do not want to sound patronising, but we did not go up with Charlton in 1958. We beat them 4-3 when a draw would have kept us down and Charlton would have gone up. I was there, but I was too young to appreciate it all!!!
yes sorry it west ham we went up with and the 4-3 win meant we finished second and charlton third....but that was the start of the blue and white blood infection that still exists in my veins today..shame the memory lets us down sometimes!
My Uncle cannot now remember what happened 5 minutes ago, but he can vividly relive all the Rovers' goals in that epic match.
Knowing my luck, I will recall the Palace play off match!

To be fair Baz if you go back 18 months then Rovers fans just like Newcastle fans before them and West Ham fans now are less than excited by Big Sams style of football.

When Venkys came in they promised Big investment and we all expected a Mark Hughes, Martin O'Neil or Benitez etc quality manager with a budget. None of us wanted Kean and it was the start of the lies and broken promises from Kean and Venkys?

Lets not get at each other - lets get them out together and build again -the spirit of "now in 3 but it don't worry me"

I'm afraid there is. Because anyone that has renewed their season ticket, IS supporting the current, corrupt regime.

12383/7672917/
.
A glance at Kean's wikipedia page will reveal the truth about this man. He is nothing more than a charlatan. He spent 3 years at Celtic, didn't score and never even got a single first team game....he then went on to play for Swansea (Division 4) played 4 times....then on to the mighty Alloa Athletic where he managed to play once....before ending his illustrious career at the likes of Bath City and Newbury Town in the Isthmian League Division Two.
.
There you have it.....Kean (in his 'professional' career) played a total of 5 times in 5 years. How this qualifies him to manage and coach a Premier League team (and collect a multi-million pound salary) is surely beyond anybody's comprehension. He was a pathetically failed player and now he's a pathetically failed manager. He must have the worst cv in football history...yet gets rewarded with lucrative contracts and calls for him to be manager of the season!!!! I feel like I've woken up in a world full of morons.

Its only 1,500 despite the early bird discount and cheap prices Stone. We had 20,000 ST's under the Walker Trust in 2010.
So that figure is pretty damming?

Massive Kean Out chant next week if he is not sacked beforehand. We are already down so it can't affect the team who gave up yesterday anyway. I would try anything for the next 4 games ..... Souness? Or Faz and Big Col with TP as advisor?

stick to football says...

How many players have their heads wrong down at Ewood and the common denominator is Kean the Manager - I wonder why?

If Kean is such a good Manager maybe his friend at OT will let him manage Man U next season and he will be able to prove himself

A clearout starting at the top and building fro the future with young players like Henley, Lowe Morris but I would be surprised if there was a rush to Ewood for our players - one or two may make a squad player at best

Wonder what the odds are on Kean going within the next 6 weeks ?
