How low has club become, it's the laughing stock of the footballing world, thanks Venkys but I won't be part of it. No to Season tickets No to buying any BRFC merchandise until Kean has gone AND Venkys apologise for making us the laughing stock! Our weapon to fight this lot with is the withholding of season tickets and long my it continue, we are winning this battle, first gate of the season, my guess 7500 tops. Remember I hate doing this as a true Blue but in my opinion it's the only way, anything else will just see the club fold and then it's to late to try and save it.
    So LP, 7500? I say not less than 15,000 probably more. The problem with you and your alter egos is that you think the attending fans are fools, which we are not. You seem to wish the destruction of the club, if not that then you are just plain stupid with a stubborn streak! Withholding revenue will cause a worse case scenario to be more likely. You say we are in a downward spiral now but loss of revenue will only cause the Owners minor hurt. What it could do is bring about the administration of the club, they will lose some money but the Administrators have no requirement to sell the club as a going concern. It can be liquidated like Rangers and then there would probably no road back at all as we have not the fan base of the 'Gers So for me your plan stinks...better to support and suffer for now and know that times will change for the better sooner or later as long as we the Supporters keep the club alive for the future. You want to kill it now?? It is illogical and impractical to think we can starve them out or " run them out of town" as you like to fantasise. Nahh overall I think I know what you are, just a sad troll with nothing better to do! Only my opinion of course. As for the slagging off of Colin Hendry and any players we are thinking of buying, and the treatment of Kean ..that is pure internet bullying by cowards of the worst sort. You would not dare speak to their faces like that. Pretty despicable and it says more about you than them, I would love find out your dark secrets and post all over the Internet but you know what even if I did I know something about you I would not stoop so low. Would not want to be like you! Bye Troll
    Lol, you keep deliberately picking on Lancs Pensioner, (and I'll be honest you were getting a bit nasty and personal in this latest one, with or without specific details), but you then accuse him of being a bully "of the worst sort". What a gimp. The treatment of Kean as well? Wtf? The fans are all to blame again are they? It begs the question; who's your audience with that? I thought no-one from the club takes notice of these pages anyway? That's what you've been saying only a few days ago. Are the fans not even supposed to speak their mind though, even though, like you say, no-one from the club comes on here? There is unbelievable frustration from the fans in case you hadn't noticed. The whole town is on a downer. But nobody is allowed to say anything unless it's "go Stevie Kean!" If it's the truth, then the fans have every right to say what they want, especially at this difficult time. As for your 15,000 figure, that's never going to happen in a million years. It's a mid week game for starters, and with this level of animosity still going on there is simply no chance. We'll see, but I'd personally bet Lancs - pensioner is far closer to the mark than you are. Tell Colin Hendry to put some money on if you see him. He could "borrow" it off another pensioner. Thinking about it, you and Colin Hendry have certainly got it in for pensioners.
    Pathetic attempt to twist what I said. Nonsense Posting
    And dont call me a Gimp
    Let's see if you have the cohones to come back on here after the first game and admit you were wrong re attendance.I will if I am but I doubt it
    Not one honest answer from you regarding the "lets destroy the club " mentality either Jack or LP or whatever you call yourself"

Rovers will scour far and wide - as Malaysian gets chance

SHEBBY Singh insists it is important Blackburn Rovers cast their scouting net far and wide in the search of “undiscovered gems’ – as defender Titus James Palani gets given the chance to become the first Malaysian in English football.

The 26-year-old, who plays for French Third Division outfit Nanteuil, will begin a trial at Brockhall next Thursday and he admits the invitation is a “dream come true”.

The left sided player held preliminary talks with Rovers’ global advisor Singh in Malaysia on Wednesday night and will bid to earn a professional contract with the Championship club.

Some will see Palani’s opportunity as an attempt by Indian owners Venky’s and Singh to spread Rovers’ name in Asia but Singh is adamant the offer is not just “a marketing ploy”.

He is adamant Rovers are prepared to give lower league players a chance to impress at Ewood Park - no matter what their nationality - but insists they will only be signed if they are deemed good enough.

Singh told the Lancashire Telegraph: “Players from all over the world will get their chance at Blackburn Rovers and it is down to them to take it. We can provide the opportunity but it is down to them in the end.

“We hope Titus can be a player from the lower leagues who has had his real potential spotted but, if he isn’t the right one, we hope we can find some who are.

“We think spreading the net wide is very important, this is serious business now. We will be looking in the lower leagues in England and all over the world, in case there is that player that has been missed.”

Palani was signed by French outfit Le Havre at the age of 12, having scored a hat-trick for a rest of the world team against Barcelona academy in an exhibition match during the 1998 World Cup.

Born in Kuala Lumpur, he has enjoyed spells in the French lower leagues but is now determined to ‘give everything’ in his pursuit of his dream.

He told the Lancashire Telegraph: “It is a dream come true for me. I will give it my best and hopefully it will be enough. If I do make it I will be the first Malaysian footballer in English football.

“I saw Shebby in Malaysia earlier this week. He was one of my first coaches when I was a boy back home.”

Malaysian footballers Mohd Safee Sali and Safiq Rahim have had past trials with Cardiff City but work permit problems cut their bids short. Singh is hopeful Palani won’t have permit problems having played in France for the past 10 years.
