xtp Posted June 18, 2011 Share Posted June 18, 2011 Heard some positive things about Venkys this week. Also, I'm not going into it but it seems as though Venkys found that the club when they took over, was not as clean behind the ears as some on here believe... I don't think for a moment that Williams and the board were perfect, but personally I'm not going to lose respect for what they created and achieved at Rovers based on the latest rumour of the week.

John Posted June 27, 2011 Share Posted June 27, 2011 I thought Mrs D said we would not be as reliant on Kentaro a few months ago? However if reports are to believed they are still heavily involved - what did she mean? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rovers_rob Posted June 27, 2011 Share Posted June 27, 2011 I thought Mrs D said we would not be as reliant on Kentaro a few months ago? However if reports are to believed they are still heavily involved - what did she mean? IF we get the players in this week that have been mentioned does it really matter who is involved ? I don't think venkys are in the business of wasting money, I don't think they are going to be taken for a ride like some people are saying. All this hysterical claptrap about Kentaro is wearing thin agents are involved in football transfers there is no getting away from that. If it weren't Kentaro involved it would be someone else. At least we know who is involved now, I would rather have this situation than some tailor in Manchester setting up deals. There are people that have had there nose put out of joint because there mates no longer have a job at the club now but it is time to move on and see what happens. If it all goes Pete Tong then by all means lets go nuts and point the finger but until then lets have a look and see what will happen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

den Posted June 27, 2011 Share Posted June 27, 2011 How exactly? Because the changes that the owners made resulted in us plumetting down the league, going on our worst run for 25 years. For starters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Posted June 27, 2011 Share Posted June 27, 2011 I think it is fair enough to ask the question - Mrs D said one thing and it appears not to be correct, as I said I wonder what she meant. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jim mk2 Posted June 27, 2011 Share Posted June 27, 2011 Heard some positive things about Venkys this week. Good to hear. For better or worse Venky's are our owners now and we should give them all our backing to make the club a success. They have been on a steep "learning curve" since December but they are astute business people who will have learnt fast. I expect us to make significant progress on and off the field next season and look forward to a bright future with our Indian paymaster over the coming years. It's an exciting time to be a Blackburn Rovers supporter - better than at any time since the start of the Jack Walker era. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have owners running around like demented chickens and that is a reason to be positive. As this is a 'message to venky's thread.

Change the record. Why should I change the record. Thought this was a message board where we can all post our opinions. I have said for awhile that as things stand I do not have any confidence in the owners or the manager. An opinion I am entitled to have. If you want to go with the sheep then you do so. I am waiting for the owners to do something positive for the club. The transfer speculation is just paper talk as far as I can see. People on here fail to see logic. Why would the venkys or any other owner want to use a load of their own dosh to fund transfers and wages of players? I believe venkys plan loading the club with a load of debt - as that is the only way Rovers will sign these so called big name players. The home grown rule appears to be going out of the window. The wage to income rule also appears to be getting ignored. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mattyblue Posted June 28, 2011 Share Posted June 28, 2011 You've got to be realistic PAFFELL. Who the hell is going to buy us? We were on sale for 4 years last time. Why did it take that long? Because there were safeguards in place. That would't be the case if Venky's sold up- enter the likes of Ali Syed, 'Bernie Madoff of India'.
