[Archived] Rovers STILL not sold.

[Iceman]

i know he is paying good money Philip, its just that dont feel like getting my hopes up anymore.

lol Tony, this takeover feels like an episode straight out of South Park. Messed up!

[greggyk]

Just a head up...SSN are at Brockhall today doing lives throughout the day from 12...so potentially some news there?...(although I expect nothing we don't already know)

No deals or potential deals will be done at Brockhall? Unless Mr Syed will be posing for pictures or Sam will be putting Mr Syed through his famous tests

[otto man]

If it's true then there has to be a reason that they're there from 12. Suggestions anyone?

Generic feature they do at clubs from time to time.

[otto man]

What,"little old Blackburn Rovers" Surely not?...... Cue the "Vinjay rant" in the Telegraph tonight.

[Craigman]

I expect it is the usual press conference for Saturdays game which takes place every Thursday.

Sacking of Sam ?

Takeover rivals already expressed their displeasure of poor results and Sam's rantings !

Partly said tongue in cheek but who knows ?

[Hughesy]

More likely to be Soccer AM Challenge than anything interesting!!

[MikeB]

This isn't adding anything new but I accept there are new members who have been drawn to the board who might find things complicated.

Very succinct.

We should all be grateful.

[Mike Graham]

bored bored bored bored bored...this must be the worst thread ever

[greggyk]

I work at SSN, Peter Stevenson is there and we've sent a truck- which means It will be the usual presser sure, but he'll be sure to ask around..

[greggyk]

In fact, scrap that..the trucks are being sent to Northampton and Liverpool rather than Blackburn today...so there will be no live reports..

.sorry!

[booth]

Syed says he is a fan, although it's not clear when his support for us started.

Shah hasn't claimed to be a fan-I would guess none of the other bidders are committed fans either.

It will be interesting to see how all the bidders want to make money out of the club.

Abramovich wasn't a fan of Chelsea though. Chelsea weren't his first choice.

Good point, nor did Syed actually say he was a fan, he said he was hoping to become a fan and that he'd "followed" us for the last 15 years...but that small distinction seems to have been lost by many in this thread.

[Alan75]

If there's any comfort.

The house up our road hasnt been sold yet, either.

[T4E]

Depends - is it really untidy inside?

[Sparky Marky]

Are there a lot of useless pieces of furniture that needs to be shipped out first...??

Don't tell Syed, he might buy that instead!

In the interview with Syed on BBC Radio Lancs, he did say that he doesnt want to be considered as the owner of Blackburn, but as a fan of Blackburn.

Well he's doing a bloody good job of it so far.

[67splitscreen]

Maybe Syed shares the views of waggy.

[rebelmswar]

What views are they? He is never very specific or to the point.

[Guest bluerovers]

That's what I was referring to, I took it to mean in the future tense. IF he successfully buys us, he doesn't want to be known as an owner but as a fan. I didn't take it to mean he is already/has been a fan of us though and I'm pretty sure just before the bit you've quoted he specifically says something about looking forward to "becoming" a fan.

[walk down bolton road]

Well he's doing a bloody good job of it so far.

Brilliant response. Come on Ali show us you mean buisness.
