FULL TIME: Blackburn Rovers 0 Chelsea 1
3:54pm Saturday 5th November 2011 in Blackburn Rovers match reports
By Andy Cryer, Blackburn Rovers reporter
FULL TIME: Blackburn Rovers 0 Chelsea 1
A SECTION of Blackburn Rovers continued to pile the pressure on under fire boss Steve Kean this afternoon as their side slipped to a harsh 1-0 defeat to Chelsea.
Supporters paid for a plane displaying the banner “Steve Kean out” during the first half of today's visit of Chelsea, before some protested against him after the final whistle.
Frank Lampard's second half header was enough to keep Rovers in the Premier League relegation zone, although Steve Kean's men squandered numerous chances to get something from the game.
Rovers also suffered the blow of losing skipper Chris Samba before the break with a hamstring injury.
While it was Chelsea who started the game the brighter of the two sides, it was Rovers who should have been ahead on nine minutes from their first real attack of the game.
Junior Hoilett's through ball caught Chelsea's defence flat footed as Mauro Formica raced onto the ball down the left hand channel.
His intelligent squared pass across goal looked certain to be tapped home from the inrushing Yakubu but, just yards out, the striker somehow scuffed the ball wide.
Rovers were growing into the game although the Ewood faithful had to hold their breath on 20 minutes when Daniel Sturridge went down in the penalty area under Chris Samba's challenge.
Referee Mike Dean rightly waved play on with the Chelsea striker going down far too easily.
Once the plane started to fly over Ewood though, Rovers struggled to continue to take the game to their opponents as the half ended with little going on.
After the break Chelsea took the initiative on 51 minutes as, with their first attack of the half, went into the lead.
Branoslav Ivanovic was given too much space on the right and his cross was headed into the corner by the diving Frank Lampard.
Rovers should have been level six minutes later but, after Pedersen's free kick was fumbled by Cech, Grant Hanley could only hit the rebound straight at Cech on the floor.
The hosts continued to press and Yakubu almost levelled on 65 after jostling John Terry out of the way.
The former Everton man did well to latch on to a hopeful clearance but, after beating Terry and Alex, could only hit a tame shot at Cech.
Mauro Formica then saw a shot hacked away by Ramires before Givet headed Pedersen's corner against the bar from close range.

Fact is we keep losing. Under Steve Kean we have won less than 10 games in almost a season's worth of games.
Under Kean, Rovers have never been higher than 14th (except for the time we dropped from 10th after Sam was sacked). This man is out his depth. You could have Alex Ferguson and Pep Guardiola as his assistants and we would still get relegated with him in charge! Admit you were wrong Venky's and get in a proven manager or we go down. FACT!

lets put the lads under more pressure whilst were playing one of them best teams in the world!!
we played well today and we created lots of chances, the difference today was the quality of players and thats it,
every chelsea players worth £20ml plus, we contained them and was very unlucky not to get a goal,
yakubu, pedersen, formica all came very close!
GET BEHIND THE TEAM YOU IDIOTS!!

We were unlucky not to win today after bossing Chelsea for most of the game but failing to take our chances. I'm wondering what the players were thinking when that banner went over?? I bet it didn't help did it?
.
There's plenty of "winnable" games coming in the next few weeks. I believe its time for Kean to put his "money where is mouth is" and get some points on the board". Lets get behind our team for the next seven games while and see what happens????????

there in the champions league,
won the prem not long ago,
players like torres, lampard, terry, sturride, all world class for starters who`d get in any team
lost to qpr cos they had 2 men sent off,
form is temporary! a team will players of that calibre arnt gona go on a losing streak forever!
they got a raggy goal through hoilett not getting a tackle in, he had a bad day today!
no doubt you watched the game on your laptop,
fs , played well today, chelsea didnt deserve anything from that game!!

Again Rovers put in a spirited performance but failed to convert their chances however its points that count.
The loss of Samba was a big blow both at the back and upfront. We were not helped by another poor referees performance -maybe when you are near the bottom you are allocated that type of referee. Failed to book Sturridge in first half for his acrobatics in the penalty area and culminated his performance by failing to reach for his cards for a late tackle in the sceond half the player having already been booked.
Rovers have a critical period now until Christmas - Ince went aftera defeat at Wigan and if Rovers loose this one I believe Kean should do the hjonourable thing before its too late - whatever Venkys think. Next banner protest should be Venkys Out they love publicity!!

Pompey Claret says...
From what I have heard and read your team performed well and were hard done by! Looking forward to MOTD tonight.
Bad news regarding Mr Samba a player I admire and wish the clarets had a back four of Chris Samba's, as our defence are clueless.
Bantering aside he will be a player that Rovers will miss very badly. How serious is it . any news?
Anyway hard luck today not good for any of us today what with PNE getting thrashed and well we didn't deserve anything anyway but at least Accy got a win.
Anyway roll on to the next set of games.

Our historical Club is turmoil ...FACT
We are going to get relegated ... FACT
We are run by a "delusionally positive" idiot ...FACT
The bulk of the fans today were apathetic ...
If you didn't shout for Kean out - YOU DO NOT DESERVE TO BE LET IN EWOOD PARK EVER AGAIN !!!
I applaud the Darwen Enders & the organisers of the Plane banner !!!!!
Every fan who failed to shout "KEAN OUT" should be ASHAMED ...
Come Xmas when we are mathematically relegated under this ridiculous sham of a manager -
SHAME ON YOU FOR NOT ACTING TODAY !!!!
(Gunishment that includes you !!)

not keans fault at all he`s not had a fortune to spend like the 4-5 different chelsea managers over the years

the players dont want to hear kean out,
you watched the game its obvious every single player on that field is working their bol ocks off for kean at the moment,
and to be quite honest I cant think of any other manager around who can possibly get them to work any harder!
you can see there trying to keep the ball,
just look at chelsea for a minute,
the players theyve got in comparison to ours,
weve lost by 1 goal!
we didnt get battered, and chelsea certainly did not deserve the victory today!
2nd hald we absolutley battered them, battered a team full of world class players! yes hoilett did go to sleep regards the goal, but he wasnt his usuall self today, and im thinking if this contract talk has messed with his head today, somethin was up with him

Samba should have gone to ground and come off as soon as he felt his hs too. He probably added another two weeks recovery time trying to run it off.
Well played today lads, great atmosphere in the second half too. Well done to the fans.
Quietly optimistic.
The next run of games up to Liverpool will determine our season.

they didnt play, but what im sayin is if torres sturridge wasnt then they`d be on, whereas weve blackman, roberts??
if i remember correctly we tried to sign lots of strikers in the window but all fell through,
thats not keans fault deals havent gone through he doesnt do the deals himself does he
although you have to admit keans got us some quality, rochina, formica, dann,
wouldnt say chelsea was poor either, i think we was just better in possesion
6:56pm Sat 5 Nov 11
Rickvtr says...
like it or not, but we was up against a team of world class players whove marginally beat us,
it doesnt matter who we get in, a different manager isnt going to get anymore from the players who weve already got,
they gave it their all today and ran their balls off, created chances too!

i am not a tosspot, I just think we are allowed to demonstrate in a peaceful way and for the owners to ban the banners preventing us from voicing our opinion about the manager is a disgrace.
I thought it would be a good idea to let them know that the can't silence us and I think that dd the trick. We can either remain slient and let them walk all over us or try to change what is obviously wrong. If you think I am a tosspot fro that, then you are entitled to your opinion. I am sure other people will back what I suggested.

Yet again Steve Kean appologists (stand up Jason Roberts and lusorovers) will say "we could easily have scored and drawn 1 - 1" - and of course they are right on that point, we could and probably SHOULD have got something out of the game.
.
Unfortunately, football is about DEFENDING as well as attacking and, the 1 time in the entire game that a Chelsea midfielder ran beyond their attackers and received the ball he wasnt tracked by a Rovers midfielder. He is 7 yards out and our keeper is stranded on his goal line - is it bad luck that he scores ? - NO, of course it isnt - it is RANK BAD DEFENDING !!
.
For all the people that come on here and say "we played really well" or "we were unlucky" - YES we were, but only up to a point - if you can't defend and conceed SOFT goals then you are always liable to LOSE games against good teams - good managers plug those defensive gaps and frailties - THATS WHY THEY ARE GOOD MANAGERS !!
.
If we are going to stay with this status quo then it will not be bad luck when or if we get relegated, IT WILL BE RANK BAD DEFENDING !!!!!!!!!!!!

A good manager isnt just about "picking the best team" - its about much more than that.
.
How about - picking the best team, motivating that team, coaching that team so they attack and DEFEND as a TEAM to the best of their abilities (we havent kept a clean sheet for 7 months - do you honestly believe no other manager in the world could organise us defensively better than this guy - if they could we could easily have got an extra 3 points from the last 2 games alone), making the best possible substitutions, etc etc.

If you think 6 wins in 32 is playing well then you need your head checking out.
Read every match report, Sky Sports rates the Chelsea players with 8's and 9's while rating Blackburn players with 5's and 6's (Olssen and Yak with 7).
62% possession to Chelsea.
4 yellow cards to 2.
50% of play in he Blackburn third.
Out shot. Outscored. Outplayed.
What the F&%$ more do you want....? Is that god enough for you????
You can DELUDE yourself all you like - we are NOT playing well. I'm sick of hearing "if we did this... bad decisions always against us.... we were unlucky here.... a draw against Norwich is OK.... we were unlucky there...." ENOUGH is ENOUGH.
Want us to be relegated? Then just continue this idiocy.. YOU are as much of the problem as Kean and Venkys.
What the hell is happening to the club I once loved...

yea so lets get kean out, because immediatly there going to become an amazing team that doesnt conceed goals without even having have to work!
cant be even bothered commenting after this,
weve been narrowly beaten by a world class team,
keep up with the protests and turning us into the laughing stock that you are,
ya dont see wigan / bolton fans behaving like that,
if you cant see were playing good football, the players are running their balls off, then im wasting my time even replying to you

If it was a one off you could blame the midfielder who didnt track back - but seeing as we havent kept a clean sheet for SEVEN MONTHS then it is obviously down to the coaching - or are you so stupid that you ONLY look at our attacking play and COMPELTELY IGNORE our defensive frailties ????
.
I am absolutely STAGGERED at the amount of Rovers fans that come on here every week and say "we played well, drew/lost" but were unlucky/played well" - they are ONLY looking at our attacking play (yes we have some good attacking players who are playing some good stuff at the moment) but they are continually ignoring our defensive problems - problems that continue, week after week after week.
.
The PL is full of teams that could play some good atacking football but couldnt defend for toffee - Hull, Burnley, Blackpool and WH - to name but a recent few - everyone of them went down BECAUSE THEY COULDNT DEFEND !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

So yeah lets get Kean out.... remember what happened when we got Ince out? we SURVIVED certain relegation. We became a team that didn't concede as many goals.
The laughing stock is Venkys and Steve Kean, not I or any other supporter. Wigan and Bolton have both won more than 6 games in 32. And Wigan and Bolton both have managers that have history with their clubs. Their supporters aren't happy, i know many living between the two, but their situation is not the same as ours. We've had a year of pure destruction.
And yes you are wasting your time replying. ALL match reports show Cheslea played a hell of a lot better than we did. Out shot, outscored. outplayed. Despite what you're deluded conclusion is...
You'll be telling me the Earth is flat next...

Rickvtr says...
there is definatly a concern we havent kept a clean sheet for god knows how long,
but i believe the poor defence was due to salgado at RB, and givet at Lb,
he`s brought lowe in at RB, who has been excellent, and olsson at LB.
olsson is wasted at Lb he should be on the left but we havent anyone else have we?
i dont know about you but i think givet is our best CB apart from samba,
he should be kept at that position and dann LB when he comes back instead of givet.
one of our problems with defence was that hoilett rochina nzonzi didnt track back, but they do now.
there goal today hoilett shut off for some reason, he wasnt his usuall self today for some reason, he had a poor game

When the fixture list was released, I think most of us were in agreement, that we had a very favourable start to the season. In fact several regular posters had us down to be on NINE points, after the first three games. We had NONE. We have now played ELEVEN games, and we still haven't got nine points! and we have yet to visit one of the so called 'big boys'.
This LOSER we have for a manager, has had 32 games to prove, that he's capable of managing at PL level. He has FAILED MISERABLY. He has lost HALF of his games in charge. Good managers do NOT lose 50% of their games. This season, we have got 0.55 points per game. This equates to 21 for a full season.
People keep going on about how well we're playing, and how unlucky we've been - with some justification may I add - BUT, that won't keep us in the PL. Points WILL. The ONLY statistic in a game of football that really matters, is the RESULT! If's, buts, would have's, could have's, should have's, are irrelevant.
Why risk losing this next set of 'winnable' games? It doesn't make sense. He his clearly out of his depth. And to suggest that no other manager could do better than SK, with this team, is just utter NONSENSE.
We have two weeks until our next game. FFS Venky's, get shut, get someone in that knows what he's doing - which will re-unite the fans - and give us a sporting chance of staying up. To leave SK in charge will be suicide.
Venky's: If you don't sack SK, then I have one question to ask you. Why do you want Blackburn Rovers to get relegated?

Do we have to wait until we are mathematically relegated before Kean is sacked?
-
Will they wait until we are 10 points off the 4th from bottom team?
-
Will they wait until we are mid table in the championship next season, after 10 games and 6 points of 6th place?
-
Will they wait for us to be in the bottom 6 in the championship next season?
-
In all seriousness, just how much further does Kean need to drag this club down before the owners act?
-
I seriously want the owners to tell us, because Kean should have been sacked at the end of last season, as it was clear then he was not good enough?
-
Just how bad does it need to get before they sack a man who has never ever been a manager before, and who is doing a terrible job?
-
I really want the Venky's to come out and tell us, how far down do we need to get before they will sack Kean? How far do we need to fall?

Flat earthers rule, we have seen the light. How many protesters, it seems to me others are seeing the difference in play as well. And if the greatest player since shearer, just kidding, Hoilett got his head from up his arse we might be stronger defensively as well. The results will start to come very soon. I just hope we have enough winnable games left. Here's hoping. Forever yours,
Flat earther.

It isn't a stat but the players are playing okay. Now we go on a run of games we can get something from. If we don't get anything then SK will be gone. But your produce some stats argument is beginning to bore me and others too. Yawn. There are no stats. As I said a long, long time ago, Kean will be relieved of his post when venky's decide and not when you guys think it should be done, otherwise he'd have gone at close season. Maybe Venky's are doing the opposite of what you push them to do. Maybe if you started supporting them and Kean they would sack him? You never know.

When we play Wigan in two weeks time, that will be Venky's 1st year anniversary. IMHO, there is not a SINGLE aspect of the club that has been improved.
We were asked to judge them after 12 months. Here's my assessment of their reign: CALAMITOUS.

The wins against West Brom home and away and the win against the poorest Liverpool team to ever grace Ewood Park. Next you'll tell me that the goals against Wolves away on the last day of the season didn't come from long ball tactics.

draws with united, (the fact we absolutley hammered united unitl robbo gave a pen) arsenal, wins when it mattered towards the end.
I dont know if you went to wolves away last season bt we had to win to have a chance of guranteed survival, we went 3-0 up at half time and on that concourse ive never seen an atmosphere like it, 60 yr old blokes jumpin an runnin about like they`d won the lottery, a performance under kean
also under ince the team wasnt interested, whereas under kean their running their socks off for him
how many away games did we win under allardcye? bpool/bolton?
bolton an miricale of an own goal of a header that lobbed the keeper..
7-1 united, lost
kean won more away games than he did im sure, west brom, wolves,
what you say about that?
to be honest it doesnt matter if we went on a 7 game winning spree, youve already made your mind up about him so criticise as much as you like fella, am bored of listenin

I don't believe any other top manager would go near this job, therefore best to hang fire as the next few games will make or break the season and determine weather we survive or crash.

Twenty eight points from a possible NINETY SIX! The first 11 games after he took over someone else's team, produced 11 points. The first 11 games of this season, with HIS team, has got us SIX! What does this tell you? It tells me that the longer he's in charge, the worse it gets!

The main thing as far as I can see is at what point will the pro kean supporters admit a problem?
The general agreement on here is the next three games are make or break for our season and i can understand that changing the manager for these would be possibly unwise but you have to say if we fail to get anything from the next 3, although we are not mathematicaly relegated, it would be difficult to see us staying up.
If we are going to sack this manager, then having a two week gap to settle a new one in would be the best time.
I keep remembering the season with Brian Kidd in charge. We just need a win, we just need a bit of luck, we're playing really well and deserved something.
And then we went down.

GET BEHIND THE TEAM YOU IDIOTS!!
'one of the best teams in the world' really? there are some clueless folk on here a team that has lost the last two league games struggling for form, when is the best time to play them after a ten game winning run or now? when is there a rule in football that the team that cost the most wins. numpty!
ey? there in the champions league, won the prem not long ago, players like torres, lampard, terry, sturride, all world class for starters who`d get in any team lost to qpr cos they had 2 men sent off, form is temporary! a team will players of that calibre arnt gona go on a losing streak forever! they got a raggy goal through hoilett not getting a tackle in, he had a bad day today! no doubt you watched the game on your laptop, fs , played well today, chelsea didnt deserve anything from that game!!
We did play well today but this is a results business, hoillet just showed his commitment to the cause for the goal i think i could of skinned him with that effort and im a 15 stone bloke with lead in my boots. A manager needs to create an atmosphere where the players give there all to the cause this guy clearly cannot do that. No watched it in the boozer will not step a foot in ewood until this alcoholic is removed got a feeling this will be once where in league one with all the other mis-managed football clubs .
I honestly cant see any other manager coming in and making a difference to the team weve got now.
kean played our best team,
and everyone in a blue and white absolutley worked their balls off for him!
its a different story when they aint playing for the manager but they are!
formica didnt stop running (again) lowe was outstanding, givet ,pedersen, rochina everyone gave it there absolute all!

Kean must drive past a hareem of balck cats on the m6 everyday or something -so unlucky. Everton, QPR ,Spurs, Norwich, Chelsea - with a bit of luck we could have had 13 to 15 points instead of 2. We gave City a game for an hour and have also have won 3 cup ties including Newcastle when the league points would have been more welcome.
.
The common thread - the players have been battling 100% for the manager which makes this a very strange situation. Yes you can include last seasons results if the stats if you must but Kean's team really started in full from Sept 1st nad performances have been good and some great entertainment to watch.
.
For me it is the next 6 games which are all winnable against teams destined to finish in the bottom half that will make or break Kean now. Play like we have and 11 or 12 points will set us up for a better 2nd half to the season. Fail and he has to go.

5. I left my drink alone for a few minutes and I think it was spiked.

We now need 2 wins just to get us out of the relegation places and we are being told we are on target for a top half finish. It would help if we didn't get the manager spouting such rubbish. Next game is away to a very poor Wigan team who have lost 7 in a row. No excuses after this one Mr Kean, either we win it or you must admit you are out of your depth.

OK, the pro-Kean, pro-chucken fickers will say "It's easier in the Chumpionship," but results are results and ultimately, that's what counts.
A crumb of comfort was the Dingles getting done at Bristol, but Bolton's demolition job on Stoke today and Wolves win makes us and WIgan look isolated.

Kean is deluded, a few hundred fans against him - look at the gate numbers, a few thousand have voted with their feet and dont go - simple fact. Basically he states that any fan that protests or does not go to a match is not a good fan - absolutely rubbish - I and my family have cancelled our season tickets in protest at Kean - I have been a season ticket holder for 16 years - he has been there 2 mins. Rovers fans have been forced by him into 2 camps - how bad is that?
Simple way for the Venky's to accurately get a feel for fans real opinions - instruct a opinion poll company to run a poll - thet have all the details of past and present season ticket holders, it would be legitimate and true.
I am at a total loss after reading that article. I know some fans support him and I do not think bad of them for that, everyone is entitled to an opinion but how dare Kean dictate that anyone who does not is not a good fan?

Flat-Earth Society President KDG with her three remaining members have been largely silent this weekend - even these delusional zealot's can see we are doomed unless Kean and hopefully the Venky's are removed.
Only KDG thinks being in the bottom three all season is progress and moving up the table -I kid you not - that is what this ridiculous Kean Cronie said the other week.
Last Week Rovers were 3rd from bottom - and KDG was OVERJOYED about it, happy clapping at that league position and sternly wagging her finger at those unhappy at it.
Well, Rovers are now 4 points adrift of 17th place and 7 points adrift of 10th place. Happy with that, KDG?

He despises Rovers, as do most of the national media and never has a good word to say about the club or its fans.
Collymore was at it on TalkSport the other week too, encouraging Rovers fans to phone in - but only with positive comments.
Setting the parameters - discouraging people from being critical - of players, managers etc.
Why - because they are all mates in this multi-billionaire industry - they want unflinching, unquestioning idolatry.
It is disgusting and one of the reasons that i can't stand the modern footballer, football pundit, football manger and the game itself.
The art of tackling is going, ref's are corrupt and always give decisions the big clubs way, cheating is rife; the game is packed with arrogance.

watching match of the day last nyt showed all our chances, but thats the typical rover sayin "if they`d of gone in..."
but hey they didnt!
There has been an improvement over the past few weeks, and our only hammering this season was against city,
where that team beat united 6-1 where we only lost by 4,
and you can critise the venkys who`ve invested in young players, people forget the paid 7.7 ml for dann,
if they were assest strippers why would they pay that for a player??
too many conspiracy theorists on here regards anderson, kentaro, just how do they know about them, do they work at the club? No, its jargon made up down the boozer after 5 pints of speckled hen,
and for those of you saying " aaah, am not goin on ewood whilst that baldie keans in charge" GET A FOOKIN GRIP!
support your team through thick and thin!! what if the whole fan base said that and no-one turned up to games, thatd do brilliant for players confidence that would!! honestly, you call yourself fans, half of you are like a bunch of old women down the hairdressers with your comments!
Id be complaining if we had lost every game, playing absolutle rubbish, BUT WERE NOT!
and ive no doubt ill get a reply saying ...yeah but these stats state blah blah blah, so what!
doesnt matter how poor they were we stayed up,
its still early in the season yet, and this happeneds every yr, a team has a poor run and pulls through it, look at everton/liverpool last season,

I honestly believe we keep playin the way we have results will come our way,
Like everton, the game was ours, how we didnt get 3 points i duno? 2 pens missed and battered them all game,
spurs, deflection landed to the worst player it could, van der vart..boom!
wolves all CB`s injured,
the amount of times ive said to my mate at games, FFS whats goin on ere,
I cant see us goin down if the lads keep playing like we have been this season,
I know were we are in the table is dire, depressing, frustrating but I think were gona pull out of it starting at wigan,
now they are on a downer, there best player inzogbias gone, now if we cant even beat them well... you can give me as much earache as you wish, beacuse wigan are on poor form, 2 decent players, that KEAN HAS TO WIN no questions asked!!

plays better football
doesnt sit back and defend all game
doesnt hoof it,plays on the ground,
signed some good young players,
still in the carling cup,
got rid of the deadwood-andrews, diouf, benjani,
gave hoilett his chance,
gave lowe his chance,
took him long enough but defence is improving in comparison,ie players tracking back,
only got hammered just once this season off a man city,
dominated a lot of games just poor finishing has cost us....spurs,everton,
ie-roberts (who former managers started)
Things that irritate me about kean-
interviews were deluded at times, like `we was excellent against villa` when we was dog terd,
doesnt accept when weve been poor in games,
says positives in every interview,
sold niko, cant really blame him for P jones, he was never gona turn down united,
DIDNT GO ON THE TOUCHLINE against city really irritated me to be honest,
poor record
unluckiest manager i have ever witnessed
but taking these on board he still has the players playing for him, passing the ball and creating chances,with defence improving with lowe and dann coming back. If we had a better striker maybe get one in jan then i think we`ll be alryt, keans already been told he`ll have cash to spend, cos by christ we need another striker with some pace,
whats your opinion?

Hughes, Billy Davies, Dave Jones, Lee Clark, Houlier(Spelling?). Would love to see some people back who have association with the club. Fazakerley would be a good coach. I just know we are going to be in the p** with Kean in charge. Dont like to protest, dont want to protest. Feel like its the only option.

you have to respect other opinions
id be on the kean out band wagon if we was playing poor but were not,
its not like under ince, or megson at bolton were they was absolute pants,
their playing with confidence you wouldnt think were down there in the table, but it is a results buisness.
i say give him till xmas, but he simply has to win at wigan, if he doesnt then we are in serious trouble if we struggle to beat them.
think kean will know that himself too

keep the faith. or have faith. and if you dont why stay away? obviously football fans have changed over the years. been going since 1975 and ive never known such fickle fans. id have loved to see some of these so called fans when we were in the lower divisions and playing awful. oh, sorry, they werent there then were they! i was. what does that say? you know who you are. yes you. the 'stay aways'. well jolly off to the stanley or chorley or bunley.

Venky's DISASTROUS 12 months in charge, has set this once proud club back TWENTY YEARS! In fact, we may NEVER recover.
I seriously fear for our future. We are lurching from one crisis to another. If there is another football club, in the ENTIRE league, operating without a chairman and a chief executive, then I'll eat hay with a donkey!
No one down at Ewood, has the faintest idea what they are doing. Everything that Venky's have done, has been on the cheap. They have got rid of everybody that knew what they were doing, and replaced them with no-marks.
If anyone seriously believes, that BRFC is better off now, in any way shape or form, than it was 12 months ago, then I suggest they pay a visit to a PSYCHIATRIST!
