  • "March as much as you want-it will not make any difference. Chant venkys out as much as you want- it wont make any difference. They will keep SK even if they are relegated this season and in coming seasons into league 1 or 2 as long as they can make money. That is there sole intention and SK is their puppet who will 'manage' the club as long as V are still around. OOnly way to get them out is for someone to offer to buy the club at a significant profit which will not happen or to limit there income. This is the only chance and will take time i.e. once the para payments have finished plus sales of players that can make a profit. It will be hard but supporters need to stay away until this day comes and it will probably be several years. I would suggest that the support goes to the away games in numbers, expensive I know, but your still supporting the team and making the point. SK is incompetent but it does not matter to V they will not be happy with less money following relegation but they can still make money and that's all that counts. It's hard to stop going but travelling to the away games is the only way I can see to support the team and make the point and bear in mind that it will be several years before the V have gone and the club may be hopefully bought by the supporters- some how.

    Finally I am frankly appalled at the reporting qualities of the LET and Radio lancs. They either hide behind the 'well if the won't talk to us what can we do' - well you could write articles that summise what you think has gone on to counterbalance the negativity that you see elsewhere in the press about the Rovers supporters i.e. you could stick up for us. Tonight's Radio Lancs sports programme at 6 o'clock had an interview with SK about GG probably taken after the match on Saturday yet following the inteview i.e. during the remaining part of the programme made no reference to reports in the press that what SK is saying might not be the actual truth.
    The supporters need to maintain the backing of the club on the pitch however if either at the Norwich or Wigan game it's looking like we've gone then I suggest the best thing is to mock SK and play back to him some of his classic lines -

    we wont go down
    we'll finish in the top 10
    it'l be europe in 3-4 seasons
    judge me on my own purchases
    I forfeited the game

    several thousand supportes shouting these words back at him might at least make him uncomfortable and make the media wonder whay we are saying these things not too mention make us feel just a little bit better though it won't last- ther's a strggle in the champioship to come and lots of player sales.
    See you at the away games next season"

Rovers fans plan community march against Venky's regime

Blackburn Rovers fans will march against the club's regime on Saturday as they call for their "Rovers back".

Sections of disgruntled supporters will hold a community march before Saturday's crucial visit of Norwich City, demanding change in the running of the club.

The march will carry the message 'Blackburn wants its Rovers back' and will call for the removal of manager Steve Kean, the board of directors and for owners Venky's to sell the club.

A spokesperson for the Blackburn Rovers Action Group, said: “The BRFC Action Group is absolutely thrilled with the response of the public. We have been inundated with messages of support from across the globe and feedback from supporters has been fantastic.

"Blackburn Rovers football club is part of its supporter’s extended family and is the one common thing which pulls the town together.

"To the people of Blackburn, this is no longer just about losing football matches, this is about the very future of the football club and the very fabric of Blackburn.

"Our football club is a 137 year-old institution which has seen it’s traditions and values destroyed in less than 18 months.

"It takes only a few hands to bulldoze our club but it will take many hands to rebuild it and the whole community needs to come together to breathe life back into Blackburn Rovers.

"Venkys cannot make us feel inferior if we do not give them our consent. ‘Words divide us, actions unite us’ and if we are unified there is nothing that we cannot achieve."

The march will leave Blackburn Town Hall at 1.30pm and will head to Ewood Park for kick off.
