    DaBoss as much as you wish for your comments to have credence all matters BRFC, unfortunately your apologetic nuances toward the destruction(in the short term at least) of BRFC is disconcerting to say the least.

    This lot between them have systematically destroyed a reputable and well run club.

    Comments should be based in and around these facts in my opinion.

    I, after initially supporting the whole set up in the most practicable of ways reached the point in which I realized that my devotion, commitment and dedication was, in short, having the rise taken out of it by these lying, incompetent and amateurish buffoons.

    Like most on here I have attempted to rationalize, reason, and be fair minded over matters at Ewood, but they have failed due to the lack of transparency, and above all a utter lack of respect for the community of Blackburn Rovers Football Club.

    I cannot and do not attempt to influence any on these boards with my stance in abstaining from attending Ewood whilst we have these imposters purporting in running the club. This is my personal choice on the basis of facts that present themselves.

    39 years I have followed my club, my team, my town all over these lands with the odd excursion into Europe on a consistent basis, in fact I would go so far as to say I am one of the 6000 hardcore supporter of BRFC, but this is not going to be any longer on the basis that I will not allow people of ill repute in taking advantage of that commitment. I work on a basis of a two way street, not a one way system !

    I have no problem with folk wishing to remain loyal at this time by attending Ewood but, I would be grateful if you would offer me the same courtesy in my reason for not ?

    Intrinsically I am attached to BRFC, and this will always remain, but not under these conditions that affront us at this time.

    I have made my peace all matters BRFC under these current owners, and they can carry on without me as I utterly and totally disagree with how they choose to treat BRFC and all of it's members.

    For your question as to those '30 somethings' who are banging the drum for non attendance, but, who will return should the fortunes be of a upward nature, I can assure you until the 'Odious One' as left, and Venky(should they still be involved?) grow some gonads, I will not be part of it.

    You have my word on that.

    BRSIT and BRAG are the only viable way forward, in my opinion, if we wish to retain the history of our club ? I have no problem with evolving, never have had, but we deserve much better treatment than that which as been meted out thus far. That, in itself speaks volumes as to why so many supporters have voted with their feet, and most possibly an end to their support of BRFC under these people ?

    For the record: I cannot see(although I understand) how anyone can attend Ewood under present circumstances and cheer this despicable regime on the claim that you are supporting the team ?

    I will follow the shirt when there are people fit to wear it, and are managed by competent people right the way through the club.

    Regards

    Arte et labore
    "BRSIT and BRAG are the only viable way forward, in my opinion,"

    Having looked at the questions put forward to the FA by the action group I struggle to see how that is a way forward. (have you read them)

    Venkys don`t appear to be looking to sell the club, if they did would the fans buy out be realistic! the Walker trust left a large overdraft which would have to be serviced as well as having funds to make a bid."

Rovers plot ambitious move for Murphy

BLACKBURN Rovers boss Steve Kean is lining up an ambitious move for veteran midfielder Danny Murphy as he looks to kick start their Champ-ionship preparations.

The 35-year-old midfielder is out of contract at Premier League Fulham this summer and Kean will look to tempt Murphy to Ewood with a two-year deal.

A host of clubs, from the Premier League and Cham-pionship are understood to be interested in Murphy, but few are so far prepared to offer him two years.

Sources close to Murphy have suggested the player would prefer to stay in the Premier League, with a new one year Fulham deal still a possibility, but the extra security of another year could persuade him to a drop down a level in East Lancashire.

Kean knows Murphy well having worked with him at Fulham and would see the former Liverpool, Spurs and Tottenham midfielder as the ‘experienced’ player the club lacked last campaign.

The under fire Rovers boss has already stated he is looking to add more experience this campaign, to compliment the club’s promising youngsters.

Sources close to the player have indicated the enquiries are at an early stage, with most of the staff at Ewood Park still in the dark about next season.

Kean’s efforts to bolster his squad won’t be helped by the uncertainty that still exists around Ewood Park, with owners Venky’s yet to communicate their plans.

It is understood club secretary Anthony Bloch, who only joined last season, has been told he will become the latest casualty of Venky’s regime.

The Lancashire Telegraph still expect Asian TV Pundit Shebby Singh to be unveiled as the club’s ‘global advisor’, while supporters are waiting for a statement on Kean’s own future after co owner Venkatesh Rao refused to back him almost a month ago.

Kean is believed to still be waiting for his budget for the new campaign. Rovers’ former PR man and new General Manager Paul Agnew will take up his role at the start of July and will be based at Ewood and Brockhall.

Singh is also expected to be given an office at Ewood Park once his appointment is announced by the owners.

Owners Venky’s were unavailable for comment yesterday.

Season tickets are yet to be put back on sale while the final plans for pre-season have yet to be announced, although it is understood Rovers could play friendlies in France and Holland.
