Can't see a lot wrong with what he's saying tbh. At least he's realistic, saying we can't keep hold of players who want to leave - unlike Kean who still reckons Hoilett will sign a new contract tomorrow. "The grass isn't always greener" could have come from any Rovers fan who's watched great players leave Rovers and end up in much worse situations. And his emphasis on youth is not a bad thing - we have great young players coming though the academy. Why not use them instead of signing past-it players on huge salaries?

Brilliant! This guy is another loser. We're hiring pundits now are we? The guy's a hypocrite. Is he now saying, because he has changed sides, that Keane isn't the useless t****r he thought he was previously? What's changed.

I understand that 13 players have asked to leave Ewood this summer.

So I would be very, very careful if you are tempted to buy a season ticket based on Shebby Singh's claims that we are close to signing 2 new players.

Believe me, several players will be sold but they will wait until after the 'Early Bird' expiry date of the 10th July.

Don't be taken in by this man.
He is the person who on 10th May believed Kean was not the person to lead Blackburn Rovers back to the Premiership.
Now he has a lucrative role at the club his view has changed?
I wonder why?

If we do sign the 35 year old Murphy on a 2 year deal, we will have the slowest midfield in the Championship - Murphy, Dunn, Pederson & Petrovic.

I am a bit concerned that we may be having to offer shed loads of money for experienced players to come, because we can't afford it on the attendances we are probably going to get. Still, if he is to run the club, he has to remain calm, communicate and achieve results on the pitch. 20 points after 10 games.

Difficult to get past history?? If your house had been burgled and 6 months later you saw somebody with a stocking over their head breaking in your back door, would you put history behind you and give him the benefit of the doubt? I can believe any Rovers fan still has to be convinced or is in any doubt about what is going on at our club. These individuals havent applied for a job fair and square, a job they had the CV for. They have been cherry picked from a group of people who would sell their grannys for some status. They are part of a circle of people with no morals, inept, inexperienced in football. They are all related in some way. They all have one thing in common. They have believe they can feed the fans any sh'@t they choose and we are all stupid enough to swallow it without thinking. We wont. Buying a ticket feels like paying to watch a mugging to me.

When I saw Shabby Singh's picture I thought "he looks a shifty t.w.a.t" and as soon as I read his comments it was confirmed. His "swerve" on his position regarding Kean's tenure as manager, while it would have been impressive on the pitch as man of the match against Shrewsbury Town or wherever it was, immediately tells everyone that Shabby has no credentials to be Rovers "Global" adviser. What a ridiculous, self-aggrandising, title for a jumped up, oily, non-entity. Well, Shabby, it won't look so global this coming season when you are advising the visitors at depressing dumps like Burnley.

Right so let me get this straight...

Unhappy players can leave... Shock horror...

Money comes in... But...

Players going to be promoted from the Academy into the 1st team squad... No players will be signed to replace the more experienced ones who depart...

So where does the money go?

This stinks to high heaven... One might start to wonder about Venkys asset stripping...

How the bloody hell can we get promoted using players from the Academy?

Portsmouth have been doing the same thing for years now and it has resulted in them going into freefall.

Also Mr Singh. There is a reason Lowe wasn't getting a look-in, it's because he wasn't better then the players we did have.

Now our squad quality has dropped he get's his chance.

But hey, maybe if we drop down to League One, other new and exciting Academy/Reserve players will get a chance... After all that is the kind of moronic logic you are using...

You have absolutely no right to hold any position at Blackburn Rovers... You are another example of a cancer that is staining/killing this once brilliant club...

People put there blood, sweat and tears into this club in the last 20 years and you and your buddies at Venkys are doing your utmost to unravel and destroy that...

We don't want Steve Kean as manager, we don't want Venkys as owners and we don't want some second rate former footballer with absolutely no morales ("Kean must go" - oh no i have been offered a job with a big wage packet "people deserve second chances") at our club.

Why didn't I think of it before, why don't the Venky's swap Rovers for Rangers with Green, and there you go problem solved, they have a club that has been completely ruined instantly....! (isn't that the script they are pursuing).

The thing is, I would be happy for any / all of our curent squad to leave (we were relegated remember -and there is genuinely no point convincing players to stay who don't want to be there and fight for the club), but there would need to be two conditions in place:

1. We replace the muppet that is Steve Kean with a manager with experience of leading a team out of the Championship and keeping them in the Premier League (not advocating him in particular, but Steve Bruce is free at the moment for example)
2. We replace each outgoing player with a player of equal cost - chosen by the new manager not Kean or the owners or Anderson (are they all one and the same person?)

I then think we might have a chance.

As for putting an arm round players and reminding them how good they are and what a joy it is to be at Rovers at the moment:

- isn't that Kean's job, and wasn't that his job last year (oh, yes, and he failed in his job last year, which is why he's staying in place)
- why on earth are players going to welcome / be thankful for Shebby's arm round their shoulder????????

Had enough - are we signing Murphy and Best or has the news of potential signings led Singh to say we're not spending any money so as to dampen expectations (hang on .... what expectations?!!).

Why did this have to happen to us?

He hasn't got his badges, unlike Kean, who showed Desai his Blue Peter badges and told her they were his coaching badges.

Do you really think that if newcomers came in they would keep Keane? I think not. He'd be out on his ear. He's only still here because he has a 'special' relationship with Madam Desai.

The Murphy and Best stunt is the oldest trick in the book. Woeful ticket sales and revolting supporters need dealing with. Start a rumour about a 'big name' player coming to the club and get people thinking that you have ambitions and a clue what is happening. Don't believe any of it. Even if Murphy comes he'll be on and off the injury table all season and will probably follow in Simon Vukcevic's footsteps by spending the entire season on the bench for no reason whatsoever.

hi mr morst....i agree with the good effect an empty stadium will create for the world (though I can't see that happening as there will still be a few thou go on..) but why do you only want Rovers to pick-up one or two points from the first six games? What good will that do us except put us deeper in the brown stuff..? It wont guarantee us a new manager at least not based on last seasons losses (didn't make any difference then as the loser still kept his job) so not sure why they would sack Kean if we lost games this coming season. Losing games is not the answer - whatever the question is.

What good will that do us except put us deeper in the brown stuff..? It wont guarantee us a new manager at least not based on last seasons losses (didn't make any difference then as the loser still kept his job) so not sure why they would sack Kean if we lost games this coming season. Losing games is not the answer - whatever the question is.

Difficult question for Mr. Morst. He hated it when we were winning under Big Sam.

That is so pathetic Bazzer - have you anything at all constructive to say?
.
FR - to answer your "fair" comment and question - I think if we lost the first 6, 8 or 10 games next season it would have to guarantee even Keanoccio getting the sack? On that basis it would be worth it because I have long since (though not as early as Bazzer!) decided this club can never move forward until kean is gone and I can never attend Ewood until he is gone. On that basis I can only look forward to results once he is gone.
.
I agree a few fans will go on but as I posted earlier I therefore question their real desire to be rid of Kean if they do? Talk is cheap - 15,000 Rovers ST's from 2010 have not renewed as firm action by them and it needs the rest to now join them.
.
It will only be a short period in our history if Fans stick together. That's why its a line in the sand Now or Never for me. If fans don't respond after the treatment of the last 18 months they never will - simple as that.
.
But it needs BRAG to be brave and not weak this weekend and call for an all out boycott until Kean is gone. They will now have by far the majority support if they do. If BRAG dither - thet lose!

Shebby obviously knows very little about English footie if he thinks the Academy boys will be able to take us back up to the elite league after our first team make their escape. Its the hardest league to get out of.

Now that Phil is a great idea, let's get over to Accy and get all your banners out, remember they will be no stop and search there, we can continue on from the last home game with Kean Out Venkys Out, and with the Accy supporters helping us it would create an atmosphere against Kean. Come on lads let all go and give Kean what he deserves in an environment he cannot control. Kean Out Venkys Out

I really don't think that anything Kean does will get him the sack from the current owners.

Only a new regime/owners will see Kean gone.

I don't know what the answer is to that or even what the right action is to take....

Boycott all home games? Go on and slate Kean & Venkys right through the match? Hope Brag has some ace up their sleeve that can make all this go away legally?

I have to admit that I will probably be back home in September and if it coincided with a home game then yes I will almost certainly go. I miss watching the Rovers so much that even with all the rubbish and the terrible things they have dome to my club over the last 18 months or so then the pull is still too strong for me to stay away. Would probably be different if I still lived in Blackburn....but not sure. Sorry but at least I am honest about it which is more than a lot on here can say.

Don't need to apologise for loving your club. Everyone reacts differently, some will see the club is bigger than Venkys; Kean or any one individual even the late great Jack Walker whose legacy these people have exploited.

Some will believe in fighting the poor tenure of Venkys by turning their bacjs to them. to each their own.

FR - all along I have said I will not knock any fan who has bought an ST. But if you have the club at heart and realise 15,000 have not renewed then you need to decide if you will show support to them for a few games to bring down the regime we don't trust?

I think many bought the cheap tickets thinking 100% Kean would be gone?

Yes I think it would different if you were here. A trip home is like a treat - well not at present maybe!!

Get down to ewood with a sledge or a shotgun and blow the hinges off the door and lift the value of the ST's if you still can find anything of value.....

Just had a reply from ticket office and i have been authorised a full refund on season tickets without a fight!!
i will genuinely pay double if they sack Steve Kean but i dont think that is ever gona happen because kean/anderson/venky have more important plans i believe !!!!

I personally know about six people who have asked for, and received refunds on their season tickets. It would be very interesting if our local rag could find out just how many refunds the club has given.

I would also wager that NO CLUB in the history of our game, has had as many season tickets cancelled, as we have had. Long may it continue. Starve the B'STARDS OF CASH!

Kean OUT! Venky's OUT! Anderson OUT! Orr OUT! Agnew OUT! And SHABBY OUT! OUT! OUT!

Article in Yesterday's The Asian Age.

"Another shocker by Venky's.
Blackburn Rovers recently appointed Shebby Singh as the Director of Football. The appointment shows the sad decline of a club which is one of only five teams to have won the English Premier League, after it’s rechristening in 1992.
When the Venky’s took over Blackburn Rovers in November 2010, Blackburn supporters resigned themselves to hearing chicken jokes from rivals.
However, they felt a slight curiosity in their future as the Venky’s prom-ised that they would get Blackburn to the top of the league. They would sign Ronaldinho if necessary, they said. They eventually signed Yakubu.
In retrospect, the first mistake was probably sacking Sam Allardyce too fast. Allardyce is not a manager with finesse, his teams play the typical English way. However, he does not get relegated and expertises in getting his club mid-table without too much of a fuss.
Unfortunately, Venky’s are apparently putting all their hope into a ‘football expert’ who suggested at the beginning of last season that Newcastle United would get relegated.
It’s almost as if Anuradha Desai was watching a match on ESPN and thought, ‘Hmmm, this guy thinks Steven Gerrard should play at right-back, what innovative thinking, let’s make him responsible for our transfers.’
