Bloody marvellous - one of the experienced Premiership Players that Kean promised us 'would hit the ground running' - I dont think so!!! Plenty more 'buy one get one free' on their way to Ewood!! Well done Mr Kean for yet again breaking the promises that you made to the Rovers fans - you are the worst Manager Rovers have ever had and deserve no respect from any of us!! Out with Kean and out with the Venkys!

I've been saying this for a few weeks now. I'm also of the thinking that the 'lies' told by Kean are purely down to Venky's not following through with the promises they have made to Kean.

BRAVE THE WEATHER AND GET BEHIND YOUR TEAM ON WEDNESDAY

Prior to the Wigan game Kean said he wasn't going to even consider signing a revised contract whilst we were in relegation trouble, turns out he was the one pushing for huge pay-raise. Was it the Venky's who told Kean his drink had been spiked? Please don't try and excuse liars.

As Kean made clear in his infamous Daily Mail interview, he has no respect for the people of Blackburn, its newspaper, its elected MP, and its ex-MPs.

I guess you two must have never told a lie or 2 to help gain a better position for yourself. Also why is Kean a liar stating he doesn't care for Blackburn people, local MPs etc. I would say he is probably telling the truth. If I was manager of let's say Arsenal I would not be bothered what the locals think. Why don't you both give it a rest and stop moaning all the time. Morse is equally as bad. You lot whine more than my wife. By the way I am not a massive Kean fan at all. I would rather just support the team instead of bleating ALL THE TIME!

Yes Alfa, what Kean should have done is go to the press and slate Venkys all day long. Just what you and I would have done if we had a £1.2M contract. You dont bite the hand that feeds you.

I was told in the summer by a Rovers physio that it was highly unlikely that Nelsen would be able to play again due to his knee injury.
It would seem the injury has finished him.

I'm not for one minute suggesting Kean is innocent, what I'm suggesting is that Venky's will be lying to him as much as they do to everyone else. It minds me not that he dresses like a mad parrot and talks like a plate of beans negotiating their way out of a cows digestive system. It's no skin off my rosy nose that there are bits of lemon peel floating down the river darwen that would make a better manager than him. The fact is, he IS our manager and to boo and abuse him can only have a detrimental effect on the team as a whole. The sooner people realise this the better. If you're against the manager you're against the team. And don't be fooled into thinking that you can support the team whilst abusing Kean, IT DOESN'T WORK THAT WAY. Whether we like it or not, HE IS PART OF THE TEAM GET BEHIND HIM FOR THE SAKE OF BLACKBURN ROVERS, DON'T ALLOW THE LIKES OF ANDERSON/VENKYS ET AL TO LAY THE BLAME FOR RELEGATION AT THE DOOR OF THE SUPPORTERS.

Are Venkys part of this team? What do you do sit on the fence and do nothing, been there in the sixty,s and seventy,s come to think of it no worse than now.

No Venky's are not part of this team. The team are the people in the dressing room on a match day. Kick one and they all limp.

I'm all for protests against Venky's (for all the good they have achieved to date) and I would imagine that if a new owner did come in, Kean would not be in charge for long. However, Steve Kean IS the manager of Blackburn Rovers FC and WILL CONTINUE to be for the foreseeable future.

Keep the protests away from the ground on match days and support the WHOLE team including Kean, after all the marches, sit-ins, abuse and aeroplanes have not been able to dislodge him so we have very little choice if we want to retain premier league status. Be the 12th man and like I said before, IF we do this then our critics will soon run out of ammunition.

I can't lay claim to have supported the club as long as you, I wasn't born in the 60's, but seeing as you were able to support us in the old 2nd and 3rd divisions I'm sure you can find the strength to give us a burst of "Stevie Kean's blue and white army"!!! tomorrow night.

If you start it maybe thousands will join you!!

Where does Alfa suggest Kean should slate the Venky's? At least have the respect to read what people are writing.

I wasn't suggesting that Alfa had said that. I was merely putting forward the argument that Kean is not likely to start slating the employer that pays him £1.2M. Perhaps it would be a good idea for you to find the respect you are suggesting I am lacking. Maybe learning to read would be a start!

You implied that slating the Venky's 'all day long' was the alternative to lying to fans and the media. Of course he doesn't need to slate the Venky's he could simply state they have been very good to him; as his bank account no doubt proves.

One of the most destructive elements over the past year has been the numerous lies and misinformation given to the fans. We should not tolerate or make excuses for those who are doing so.

Well its news in the positive direction at least even if it does have potential loopholes!

If we don't sell Key players in the next few hours then it will be better than we feared. But its gonna be like watching Rovers in the last 20 mins with a one goal lead!

Yep, agreed.

More then anything else, the most important thing in this window is that we don't weaken our squad by letting first-teamers go. I am suprised there are no bids from Spurs yet for Hoilett/Samba, and Formica leaving is still a worry. But if everyone stays I'm quite satisfied with this window.

Considering he meets them face to face every month and has done for a year, if he is still being duped and is still not able to recognise that they are stringing him along when the rest of us who have never met Venkys can recognise it, Kean is more stupid than a lot of us thought.

I think we've now all lowered our expectations massively with Venkys, regards to new signings.

That said, providing no-one of significance leaves tonight (Hoilett, Samba, N'Zonz) then I'll be quite satisfied end of this window. We were never going to get a great signing in our position, but the ones we have seem solid at least.

This Olsson lad I don't know much about tbh, but as well as being an international, if he's as good as his brother he COULD be an excellent value signing for us.

If he hasn't recognised or accepted it yet he must be even more stupid than we thought.
