Ewood hero Jack Walker was one of a kind

AS Blackburn Rovers were getting relegated from the Premier League, the Ewood Park stands reverberated with chants of ‘there is only Jack Walker’.

As far as Tony Parkes is concerned they are right and is adamant no Premier League clubs will see another ‘Uncle Jack’.

Now, with Rovers preparing for the new Championship campaign, Parkes fears the club are ‘back to square one’ having watched Walker’s legacy be dismantled by the new Venky’s regime.

Parkes said: “You don’t get Jack Walker’s these days. Owners will go anywhere now. Jack was a Blackburn supporter, he was Blackburn through and through.

“I can’t see where there is a Jack Walker now. They are all in it not for the right reasons.

“He wanted the best for Blackburn Rovers. The fans still sing there is only Jack Walker and that will be remembered for a long time.

“Jack made all that happened happen. The legacy that he left was supposed to get Blackburn through the darker days, well I can’t see much of Jack’s money being spent.

“It was supposed to leave a legacy at the club but that has gone and we are back to square one and struggling as a football town.

“Jack was in it for the right reasons. He was a Blackburn lad, he earnt his living in Blackburn. He built nearly a new stadium, he built the academy, the senior training ground – all in three years.

“He knocked houses down to build car parks but people got top dollar. Now as owners we have the total opposite. You can’t deny that.

“Venky’s could not be any less like Jack Walker.”

Parkes grew to knew Walker well during their time together at Ewood Park and reveals the club’s benefactor actually grew quite frustrated by the ‘beautiful game’.

Parkes said: “The only think Jack couldn’t do was get on top of football. He had his fingers in a lot of pies but he couldn’t get on top of football.

“If he had a business and there was something wrong, he would have a board meeting and it would be settled. It doesn’t work like that in football. He can’t pull the strings in football.

“He found it very difficult at times and I think he stayed longer than he wanted to because we got relegated. He didn’t want to leave a sinking ship.

“The politics of football frustrated him.”

Just released by malaysian press. Keano is now a puppet! We have a new director of football. Who knows we might be at a turning point. Send him back to the training ground!!!

KUALA LUMPUR -- Former Malaysian international and football pundit Serbegeth Singh or better known as 'Shebby' has been appointed English Championship division, Blackburn Rovers football director next season.
According to reports from the Dailymail of United Kingdom today, Shebby’s appointment was confirmed by club owner, Venky's (India) Limited.

Venky's is the Indian-based company which specialized in chicken meat processing and pharmaceutical products for both poultry and human usage, owned by brothers Balaji Rao and Venkatesh Rao.

The report added that one of Shebby's tasks were to act as a go-between Venky's owner and the club manager, Steve Kean.

The 44-year-old Kean's future at the club remains uncertain after being relegated from the top flight - English Premier League (EPL) to Championship division next season - after finishing second from the bottom last season.

Shebby is expected to leave his current job as a pundit in the local private television cable news station to take up the job. - Bernama

r-1.Rovers are effectively an Indian club which has been uprooted from Pune and dumped in the Ribble Valley. The management and owners are an utter, utter disgrace. If supporting the club means supporting Venky's/Kean/Anderso
n/Kentaro then I simply will not support the club till they've gone. Sounds drastic but I'm afraid that's the way I see it. I'm sick to the stomach of them all.

Agreed, my friend.

I can't, for the sake of my own sanity, attend games while Kean & Venky's remain.

I, for one, will never forgive Venky's - regardless of what they may or may not do in the future - for what they've done.

Amongst other aspects the very fact that J. Walkers legacy is being besmirched by these merciless imposters will see me never set foot on Ewood again whilst they purport in having the best interest(s) of BRFC at heart.

The business model that they are creating for BRFC is rotten to the core at this time in so far as taking the club forward. They are going to find just how difficult it is in reshaping this club in the world of football.

The whole structure of this well run club is now in tatters.

Reading and listening to these people relaying what their intentions were when they took over as been nothing short of treachery. They will never be forgiven in my eye's.

No one connected with Ewood Park has much credibility; the Venkys, Kean and others are alien and foreign to this football club. The Venkys though have acted appallingly and are not even big enough personalities to admit errors have been made and seek to rectify them. Sadly, the Venkys are little people who think small and are incredibly naively; rather as children think. The Venkys are not serious, well respected business people at all The sooner they depart our shores the better and of course, taking Steve Kean and others with them. Meanwhile the loyal supporters will try to keep the faith and believe that things will improve; believe me they will.

Nothing has changed until Kean (the one can't manage) is out. Director of football just another of Venky's smoke and mirrors!

Great a Malaysian soccer pundit and I didnt realise they played football in the jungle. I would like to learn how a guy from Malaya can realistically know who the best players are to take us to the top of the Chumpionship? The mind boggles will he be bringing in a load of their lady boys to play for us and live in Burnley?

The only good thing is that Kean wont be going to India to report lies to Desai this guy will be doing it and Desai is good at delegating dismissals from Pune so give him 5 matches and he will be gone.
I think the takeover rumours are wishful thinking our fans are desperate to remove these jokers from further destroying the infra structure of our club.I do not think BRFC is a viable profit making enterprise only Premiership monies could sustain the massive expenditure on players wages the Indians knew this and tried to reduce these costs without realising that they would be taking away experienced Premiership players and risking relegation.The cost cutting excercise proved disastrous and they will now realise their serious shortcomings when they look at the income they have lost.
He may not know much about football but he will know a lot about betting------ wink wink.

..oh okey cokey cokey.
Steady on about the new secretary C and G....all the info on the new guy Ian Singleton is very positive. His last job was at Liverpool where he apparently did a very professional job for a number of years and he is well respected by fellow administrative people in the game.

He was actually ousted at Liverpool by someone he employed (sounds familiar?) but Liverpool 'new' secretary's regime then went and handled the Suarez incident so messily that the club had to apologize to the world over the mess that was created.

Maybe having a well respected and very experienced (European and Prem experience with Liverpool) Club Secretary can make some difference to the running of the club.

Could it just be that Venkys are starting to put a proper structure back in place within the club so as to make it more saleable?

Are we actually seeing the first green shoots of hope emerging? Shoots that can grow quickly and sweep "Kean the weed" away.....? Not sure where our Shebby fits into that theory though? Unless he will be the 'asia known face' that will oversee the sale?
