[Archived] PROTEST!

[BPF]

I'm hearing that there is a Steve Kean out protest taking place at the ground tomorrow.

I've heard that the meeting time is at 12pm. Is there any truth in this? I don't really think that it will do much but it is a hell of a lot better than doing nothing which is what we are doing now.

In the Steve Kean thread someone wrote:

Steve Kean = Certain Relegation

No Steve Kean = A chance.

I fully agree with that statement. This is our club and it is being ran by people that have no idea what they are doing, maybe this would show them that the fans do know what they are talking about and that Blackburn Rovers are worth saving.

I've seen a couple of rumours. Numbers would soon grow once word got round and probably attract the media of some description.

You'd be the perfect person to make it happen Ben. I've tried to spread it round a few places.

[Mercer]

I'll be there.

[Hughesy]

Sounds more like your trying to get one to organise one rather than asking if there is one....

Dont see many turning up on a non match day to be honest if true.

[SIMON GARNERS 194]

Save your protests till after the City game if needed....media scum will be there in numbers to lap it all up.

Seems that way. It's desperation Hughsey, pure and simple. I don't know what we can do.

[Ste B]

Is there any point ? Short of flying out to India, then nobody from Venkys will ever take any notice.

AGREED

REGARDLESS of the result....make it happen after the game

Not even sure that would work, Ste. Doesn't seem as if they really care. Sad days.

[Guest linganzi]

I think they have already lost interest

[Mattyblue]

The problem with too many Rovers fans is their game by game mentality.

We get a good hiding from City, a protest would have legs.

We avoid defeat and everyone ambles home/to the pub.

I hope there is. Sadly due to the distance, I cannot get there. But you need publicity, first from the local (LET) as then the nationals would - eventually - take it up. Make your feelings known to all the local papers / radio etc.

If I recall correctly, didn't Mrs D say JW had lost interest?

It's quite telling that they think it's that simple. Maybe it would be easy for them? No way has JW lost interest in BRFC - even now. I imagine he's as gutted as the rest of us. Probably moreso given the blood, sweat and tears he's put into the club over the years to keep us 'punching above our weight' to now watch it be thrown away in this way.

[Mattyblue]

That statement from Desai about JW was when I first lost trust, and it hasn't been regained since.

[BangkokRover]

Too little too late.

Where were you when we drew with Blackpool and then celebrated like it was a victory??? It was reported that barriers were up and fans prevented from going around the front of the stand?

100% agree, moan for 85 mins while sat in the riverside and then bugger off 5 mins before the end.

I guess they said JW lost interest once they revealed their master plan to him and he thought WTF is this!

Bangkok Rover why are you continually trying to stir up unrest from thousands of miles away?

A "get behind the Club, the owners, and the manager (be it Steve Kean or anyone else) and stop all the infighting" protest today would be far more beneficial but I don't suppose you or many on here would have much interest in that.

I am not stirring it I am calling it as I see it.

I guess you will be at Ewood on your own with your Steve Kean love in.

I have no issue at all with the owners to be honest as they bough the club when no one else was able to.

The is growing unrest at the situation at Rovers - that is reality. You only have to read the posts on this board to realise that. Unrest that will only get worse until the owners open their eyes and see that they have made a huge mistake in having Kean as the manager. Kean is out of his depth and it is time for him to either resign or be sacked. Either way his time should be up.

Protests do need to take place asap. Not during matches, but either after or on non-match days, with media informed before hand. Action has to be done in order to get a reaction.

[RevidgeBlue]

If Kean were to be sacked he could have no complaints at all, it's a results driven business.

However only the owners can make that decision and if they decide he's to remain in charge for the rest of the season then for the team to have the best chance of survival the fans need to get behind him or at least cut out the negative chanting towards him and or the owners unless and until all hope is gone.

It's counter productive to boo the manager and/or the owners at such a critical stage of the season. Gav's quite right and I'm amazed a few more people don't seem to be in agreement despite the lynch mob mentality that now pervades this m/b.

why should we?

The owners, kentaro/ja and kean have wreck my club that I have support for the last 20 years!

Erm, to help the team, maybe? Dunno. Just a thought.

Then, again. Maybe laying into your manager, owners and players might work and, erm, lift the matchday atmosphere. For the opposition.

We are all entitled to our opinions. Undermining performances on matchdays. That's for plastic fans.

So meltdown.

Exactly because it's "Your" club.

I have come round to the conclusion that Kean should probably be replaced. However if the owners decide not to do that the only real option is to get behind him for the remaining games.
