Blackburn Rovers column: Ewood faithful unite in need for change (From Lancashire Telegraph)

i have never seen a newspaper ever put football as front page news 20 ,000 fans out of a area of blackburn , darwen hynburn ribble valley vast numbers not interested in football whats goin on come on sort it out

The National media seem to get away with portraying us fans as the problem and we all know that is far from the truth.

Whilst I was on holiday last week in Spain, I was having a casual chat with a couple of lads who knew only what the had read in the Nationals about us. When I showed them the comments made by the geunuine fans on the LET website and explained, what false promises, Venky's, Kean and the agents had made, they were genuinley shocked. It astounds me that we can't get our message out to the public.

I think if the real message was out there, football fans would genuinely unite and make a real stand against things.

I just wish I knew ho we could achieve this!

I'm not wrong and I am supported by the majority of fans the length and breadth of the country when I say that woevers fans' behaviour has been little short of disgraceful this season!!

And yet you yourself, who isn't interested, are one of the first to read Andy's blog and the first to post on here.

What other events attracts over 20,000 paying customers in East Lancs regularly? The fact is football clubs are the heart of a community and give their town much needed exposure when they do well.

Look at the bigger picture j bee. Rovers literally put Blackburn on the map. Think profile, investment and jobs.

Who has heard of Darwen, Hyndburn or Ribble Valley outside Lancashire? Practically nobody.

I get mixed reactions. I live in London now and whenever I tell people I'm a Rovers fan I either get "your fans are a disgrace" or "I used to like Blackburn, but I just can't stand that Steve Kean". With the former, as you said 10mins telling them the real situation and they're astonished.

LOL after all the abuse the Dingles gave Owen Coyle when he moved to a bigger and better club you've no room to speak.

I believe maybe the tide is starting to turn at last.
The desperation of the constant advert for the ST's on the radio tells its own story, this vocally illustrated by whole sections of the support shouting the message out loud and clear.
How will Venkys respond to this?
For myself, I have no idea, as they don't.

VENKYS OUT AND KEAN OUT.

So mr cryer, are you saying there is a way back for the venkeys. I would love to know from true Rovers fans what they think. Don't you think they have not only completely damaged the image of Blackburn fans worldwide, but have all but put the club in the championship. I for one will not support these assets strippers by paying money through the turnstiles. Maybe if others do this, then they may move out and let us support our team in whatever division they leave us in, and hopefully with genuine owners.

Sadly, I can't see BRSIT succeeding, because the amount of money needed at present is way beyond what I think can be raised.

Some people on here, especially "morst" seem desperate to see the Walker Trust come riding to the rescue. I think there is more chance of platting fog.

When we are relegated, that is when the reality of what they have done will hit these shysters we call owners. The cupboard really will be bare, and I have a feeling that Barclays Bank will be the catalyst for what happens next. Hopefully the shysters will be forced out. We will be rid of them sooner or later!

Perhaps then, BRSIT will come into their own. One day we WILL have our Rovers back - what division we will be in is anyone's guess!

In the meantime, I for one will not be renewing my ticket until these shysters are gone!!

COME ON YOU BLUES

I think it's disgraceful that Burnley fans are going onto that BRSIT site and making phoney pledges every day. It sickens me.

They should be doing it twice a day. The lazy b@stards.

Those at the club are worried about the obvious deliberate decision by fans not to renew season tickets but are Venkys? I dont think they give a toss. They dont understand football, they dont live in England let alone in the North West, they dont even have to be faced with the issues of the club they bought. Theyve literally dropped it and run. Im not sure that the whole of Blackburn chanting Venkys Out would bother them. What would have affected them I think is if the same criticism was being mirrored nationally.

whether you're a football fan or not, Blackburn Rovers is of massive importance for the town in terms of status and economy, not to mention the 137 years of history that it represents.

Venky’s chairman Anuradha Desai asked for fans to show patience and trust as they set about turning Blackburn Rovers in to India’s favourite team.

The names of Martin Jol, Sven Goran Eriksson and even Diego Maradona have emerged as potential replacements though Desai’s desire for someone with experience of the English game appears to rule out the trio.

“We want good football and Blackburn to be fourth or fifth in the league or even better,” Desai told the Lancashire Telegraph.

“The fans should trust us because this is in the best interests of the club.

“It is nothing against Sam but we have a different vision looking forward and we want the club to grow.

“It is not about the Bolton match. It has been a long time in our minds. We wanted good football, wanted the games to be interesting and of course wanted to win and to have good players.

“The fans should trust us and have belief in us.”

Having rejected plans by the Venky’s group, the Indian-based poultry company which secured a controlling interest at Ewood Park last month, to rely on advice from the sports agency Kentaro in relation to transfer targets, Allardyce was sacked by chairman John Williams on the orders of Venky’s.

The owners’ list of potential transfer targets are said to have had former Hull City midfielder Geovanni and Middlesbrough striker Kris Boyd at its centre whereas Allardyce wanted to move for Robbie Keane and David Bentley at Tottenham and Roque Santa Cruz, the former Rovers striker who has been marginalised at Manchester City.

Blackburn will not be rushed in to an appointment, with the owners expressing confidence in Steve Keane, one of Allardyce’s coaches, as an able caretaker manager.

“Our thinking now is that it will be a British manager, but we are open if there is an outstanding candidate: someone who would be really, really good for the club,” said Desai.

“Right now Steve Kean will take over while we are looking for someone to take over on a permanent basis.”

Waah waah waah Venkys aren't spending any money, waah waah waah Kean hasn't signed anybody decent, waah waah waah we are losing games every week, waah waah waah our board of directors have gone, waah waah waah we are going bust, waah waah waah lets all have a protest.

STEVE KEAN IS A FOOTBALL GENIUS

Blackburn Rovers owners have denied speculation that they want Diego Maradona to replace sacked manager Sam Allardyce.

The Indian firm Venky's, who dismissed Allardyce on Monday, also reiterated that they will not rush the appointment, and that Allardyce's first-team coach Steve Kean could be caretaker manager for some time.

Venky's chairperson, Anuradha Desai, said: "We are looking for a manager in the future but that is going to take time. We don't want to make a hurried decision. We want to understand, meet a lot of people, take opinions and study the scenario. For the time being we have given Steve Kean the job.

"I can assure you he is the guy who is hands-on, he knows the strengths and the weaknesses of the players. He has been working hard with the players and I am pretty sure he will do an excellent job."

Maradona, who coached his country with characteristic flamboyance at the World Cup last summer, was tipped as a candidate to succeed Allardyce in some reports but Desai has rubbished those suggestions.

She added on Five Live: "This is something that because we have offices everywhere somebody spoke about, but it is not true. There is no connection. This is something from before we got into the EPL – he knows one of our friends, but nothing beyond that.

"He is not being considered, not now and forever for the future. I can assure you we are having nothing to do with Maradona."

Desai also insisted that the decision to sack Allardyce was not provoked by his reported objection to the prospect of having new signings forced on him in the January transfer window.

"We have a long-term vision. We want to take the club up to higher heights in terms of position, in terms of overall betterment of the club, in terms of development of younger players – the future.

"In that, Sam definitely didn't fit in. We don't want to be, all the time, in danger of being relegated – three points away, five points away.

"I don't think this team deserves that. This team has a lot of potential and we can see that."

"My father once told me that out of 10 decisions you must get at least seven right. You can get two or three wrong - we're not gods.

"But to get nine or 10 wrong is not good and things have been going wrong with transfers, that's a fact."

My favourite quote is this:

"In that, Sam definitely didn't fit in. We don't want to be, all the time, in danger of being relegated – three points away, five points away."

At last a post from Andy worthy of the "Time To Go Steve" which seems a lifetime ago now.

Who cares if the ST renewal date is not extended - yet another cheap insulting PR trick from the Pinocchio gang.

So, panic is setting in at Ewood Park. The Rovers store is extending its opening hours. Looks like ST sales are down(I wonder why?)
To all those thinking of renewing.....Please don't.

Grow up and go comment on social deprevation in burnley.

gudari.... sad **** always on the bigger clubs site because **** all happens on turd moor sites ..... always in are shadows now **** off back to your sisters bedroom.

The only thing that is in need of change is the constant moaning of the supporters, you never hear steve kean and venkys moaning do you ?

What is required is for you lot to go out their and find a job, look at 'Derek aka morst' and 'keep darwen gay' for instance, these two clowns spend all day every day on here drumming up their hatred for steve kean and venkys

Steve and venkys do more work in a day than these two clowns have done in a life time. so hats off to steve and venkys as they are hard working people just like myself.

Venky soup kitchens are now off limits for Derek and KDG.

Ohhh, how bad season ticket sales must be going!!! The rovers page is turned into a marketing tool only, probably because of lack of any decent football news. They have been counting down the "Early bird" offer for ages now, and today it hit new hights with Dunny handing out the two tickets sold to date in person!


It will be interesting to get the actual figures! Anyone have any idea?


In other news, I do feel most people and even the media is starting to see more of the big picture, but the abuse the protester, and rovers fans in general, have had to put up with is nothing short of a discrase!


Was delighted to see all stands unite in the "Venkys out" chant on sat!!

COME ON YOU BLUES

Venkys are banking with the Bank of India now and staff's pay is credited from there. The weekly paid staff were paid late a couple of weeks ago. Dont know it its still the same but in any case, Kean talking about the refinancing I think means that the money is no longer in a British bank. The money extraction process has stepped up a gear.

allegedly the venkys built a village without planning permission and they may have to pull it down.and because all their money is invested in that project they haven't funds for brfc and they stand a chance of loosing everything.

Whereas your club is so insignificant even its own fans havent got an opinion to post and prefer to join in with their rival fans. There is nothing you can say in criticism. Yours and your mates presence on here everynight is a bigger embarassment to Burnley than anything else. Its like Neil Kinock keep pulling up an armchair with Thatcher in her front room every night and criticising her.

I saw Steve Kean eating at a local hotel the other day.

He seemed to be a very nice man; a very n**e man indeed (is that ok L.T. ?).

Peter Gray
I hope he was eating BEEF on the sly. mmm lovely beef ,fried beef or braised beef, beef beef beef beef.

well done cryer , about time Kean out venkys out

Mmmnnn - our manager loves b**f s**w!!

Not sure about Givet though - after all he IS FRENCH ;-)

NOT MEAN ON KEAN

Rovers boss is dragging the club down

Posted: 26th April 2012 19:20






Kean: Venky spokesperson?


If Kean has any dignity about him surely he would look at the statistics of his entire regime and recognise he is incapable then walk away.


.

..
A season of painful torture, wholesale changes and false promises is how most of the Ewood Park faithful would summarise the 2011/2012 campaign.

The national media and managers of other clubs have continued to heavily criticise the Blackburn fans for their hostilities towards their manager Steve Kean and club owners Venky's. Yet this crusade against the Rovers fans has no substance whatsoever when backing Kean's tenure in charge.

Venky's had initially pledged to expect grandeur adventures in the Premier League with solid financial backing. They promised to keep Big Sam and European football. All of these promises have been broken. There are many things Venky's have failed at whilst owning the club and will probably continue to be the most incompetent football club owners in the history of the sport. However, the focus here will remain upon the manager as he remains the spokesperson and 'yes man' for the club owners.

Steve Kean has continued to lie about issues such as Samba not being sold this season, the club have no financial difficulties (then states the club had to restructure financially) and then the most comical moment of Kean's idiocy of the season had to be the statement at Christmas time (when Blackburn were bottom):

"We have a points tally in mind for us to finish in the top 10 and we are slightly off it at the moment but I would stress it is very, very slight." (December 2011).

Kean inherited a squad of players that had previously finished 10th under Sam Allardyce to which Kean narrowly avoided relegation on the final day of the season in which most of the points keeping the club safe were gained through his predecessor. This season Kean has apparently had confrontations with Ryan Nelsen, Christopher Samba, Steven N'Zonzi, Gaël Givet in addition to Diouf and Keith Andrews last year.

These are players that have calibre and experience to guide a club through adversity within the league, these are players who have charisma required to raise morale in camp and most importantly, these are the players that can win football matches in order to survive.



Steve Kean is rapidly dismantling the football club and unless he can perform a miracle and go against his 17 wins in 63 match record then it's difficult to see anything other than Championship football next year. For a man whom reportedly 'stabbed Sam Allardyce in the back' to obtain the role as manager and looks set to lead us into the Championship, the media and managers should not only look at these facts before leaping to his defence. If Kean has any dignity about him surely he would look at the statistics of his entire regime and recognise he is incapable then walk away. Dignity remains out of Kean's vocabulary.

As the national media and Kean's managerial counterpoints continue to criticise the Blackburn Rovers fans' public animosity towards Kean it has to be asked should fans just sit silently and watch their club enter an abyss? There is nothing more than the fans would like than Kean to prove us all wrong and guide us to safety. Kean continues to disappoint and is both tactically & strategically clueless.

So, for those whom criticise the Rovers fans should consider what has occurred at a club since Kean's appointment as manager. Blackburn Rovers, a club that has been well established in the top flight of football for the past decade, a club that co-founded the Football League, a club that is only one of just four to ever win the Premier League now face a bleak future with clueless owners who look set to stick with an even more clueless manager.

Fans cannot simply just sit back and watch their cherished club face oblivion, they cannot sit in silence as the club becomes butchered and one thing that is certain is that anybody will fight for something they love in the face of danger.

I am positive that I speak for most BRFC fans when I say, "We will not go quietly into the night!" One day soon, we will have OUR Rovers back. We will be heard.

Rovers 'til I die.

VENKYS FOR ROVERS..... Ignore the ignorants. In the long run venkys will prove to be the best for rovers. Football fans are very fickle they change like the British weather.

I would gladly when the time is right for a fan take over love to add a few hundred of my hard earned cash to help buy the club. Not for profit not for praise but like so many Rovers I want to do it for the team the town and the people. come on who is with me.

Thanks Andy Cryer.

Whilst the Venkys are the major shareholders and obviously the high profile owners of BRFC it should not be forgotten that they are advised by KENTARO.

Kentaro are a huge worldwide agency whow have a proven track record of bleeding vast amounts of money from sport and football in particular.

A vast amount of their money comes from tv revenue.

Venkys won't communicate and so we don't know what is really going on.

There will not be any published accounts till later this year.

Venkys have no track record of dodgy dealings.....I don't think.

We need to at least keep trying to communicate with them in order to find out what is happening.

Extreme anti Venkyism in my opinion is counterproductive...
.it's surely going to make them less likely to want to talk.

I don't know the best course of action; but I do believe in brsit....Jack Walker's main aim was to preserve BRFC for generations to come.....that's what brsit wants to ensure....the survival of BRFC as an integral part of the whole Blackburn with Darwen community.

In the current climate fan based ownership is the way forward.

With everybody's support from all backgrounds and with different viewpoints the brsit can and will succeed.

If our team do play in the Championship next season....it's not ( in my opinion ) disasterous...but we still need to put the club back into good order.....back to the principles it was founded on in 1875.

As soon as the people give there had of peace they pull out there lasers and shoot everyone down they then ask for peace again and the same thing happens.....for me no way back for venkys there silence alone speak volumes they have gone down the path of no return because they can no longer be trusted to run this great institution that is Blackburn Rovers football club.

As soon as the people give there had of peace they pull out there lasers and shoot everyone down they then ask for peace again and the same thing happens.....for me no way back for venkys there silence alone speak volumes they have gone down the path of no return because they can no longer be trusted to run this great institution that is Blackburn Rovers football club.

There is no way back for Anderson!

Balaji Rao has tweeted that he is ' the villain '!

Venky's love BRFC and have good intentions.....they too have been 'had' by Anderson!

It's not the first time he's done it...look at Man City!

We need to open positive dialogue with Venkys.

Arte et Labore

Given the way that the table is developing and the teams form above us, the game away Tottenham has turned into a must win. Even a draw is not enough, as that leaves us with only Wigan at home a possible 3 points.
-
We simply need two wins and 6 points from Tottenham away and Wigan home. 37 points like it may be enough to keep us up! Just maybe.
I think everyone given Cheski's form has written off that game!
-
We may well finish above QPR with 37 points, however I have doubts if that will be enough to finish above Bolton. So that leaves a razor sharp finish with Wigan, assuming of course that we can beat them.
-
Even with 2 wins against both Tottenham and Wigan we may still go down!

The National media seem to get away with portraying us fans as the problem and we all know that is far from the truth.

Whilst I was on holiday last week in Spain, I was having a casual chat with a couple of lads who knew only what the had read in the Nationals about us. When I showed them the comments made by the geunuine fans on the LET website and explained, what false promises, Venky's, Kean and the agents had made, they were genuinley shocked. It astounds me that we can't get our message out to the public.

I think if the real message was out there, football fans would genuinely unite and make a real stand against things.

I just wish I knew ho we could achieve this!

You tube is free and global. Just use a large pair of breasts to lure them in and bingo.

weve had a very large pair of t!ts already for 18 months
venkys out ,kean out

What a ridiculous marketing advert in the current situation. Dunn delivering season tickets for another season of that desperation is like getting a visit from the grim reaper

Been told that less than 2000 season tickets have been sold.

And they were delivered by a three legged, wheezing asthmatic dog.

..... Another rancid nail in your filthy chicken shaped premiership coffin!

I urge you all to refrain from re-newing,the pathetic early bird offer of not even knowing which league we will be in (yes we all know really,but its the principle),the conflicting stories of the numbers being from 800-to just over a 1000 speaks volumnes of how ridiculous it as become at ewood park.....they say in life you have to be cruel to be kind......its your call!

Just renewing our family's STs...had them for donkeys (25 years?)...We love our communities' & Town's Club, regardless of current rude & impolite owners, out of depth manager & unrooted in the town/Club customs & traditions players...

No, there you're wrong numpty!! I'm often on a blackbum site taking the mickey out of you scruffs because it's funny!! By the way , I think I know your Auntie Michael.xx

I remember when most of you wanted Big Sam out.You got what you wanted and the grass certainly hasn't been greener on the other side.No disrespect to BRFC but they have punched above their weight for a while since Uncle Jack's money ran out.Rovers true standing is a Championship club in terms of support base and catchment and financial power.Big Sam was a **** good manager and helped you punch above your weight.When you get relegated-and you will because it may need 38 or 39 to stay up and your goal difference is awful-then i think you will find it hard to make a quick return especially while the Venky's run the shop.Selling the club to foreign investors was suicidal and most of you at the time had no complaints when the Venky's took power but other clubs are also finding foreign ownership to be a disaster Villa and Birmingham to name two.At least you got two derbies with Burnley next season to look forward to so stop complaining !

Burnleh......spoutin

STEVE KEAN IS A positive person, and I like his approch with his core 20 players. where he always motivate to stay in the fight. We cannot avoid the stress he is carrying. All is going to be fine , when he wins next three match.............I hope his team will stand united and focused to win too. Good wishes to all.
