[Archived] Venky's - Do You Support Them As Owners Of The Club?

[eire3382]

So frustrating.

If this was remotely true Kean would be gone with months, another bag full of lies.

Have the Vs or our stupid idiot of a manager ever said one word of truth?

[alexanders]

That depends eire. I have to say - living here in Norway I am not up to date about how most supporters perceive the club nowadays (except this messageboard).

I have no clue if it is 99% who are against. As I mentioned in another thread. Stability is key to a club - maybe that is what they are trying to achieve. From their pov I also understand that it is hard to sack someone when things are looking better.

I think Wigan might be decisive match.

[martonrover]

I doubt they'll be going for a walkabout in Blackburn if/when they arrive on the PR trip this week. It would be nice if someone could find out where they are going as a welcoming reception could be arranged!

[LeChuck]

So frustrating.

What a joke.

They say the club is "like their baby". Well, they last saw their baby two months ago. They've left Steve Kean at the helm, which (to stick with the baby metaphor) is like putting Gary Glitter in charge of your new born. They are awful and irresponsible parents.

Rovers would have been taken by the social services months ago. We've been sat in the same soiled nappy for 12 months, we need someone to change us. Please Venky's, just do one and let someone new come in and try to clean up this rotten mess - for all our sakes too, none of us will get an opportunity like this ever again.

[Rovers_786]

Please, please, can anyone show me any evidence at all that venkys have put as much as a single penny of their OWN money into Rovers.

I love to see this because the club needs to open there mouth and tell us what is true and false and if I am honest here we have been treated like rubbish that is on the floor.

I have a receipt here for a giant foam hand that Bigboy bought.

He probably claimed it back in expenses and added a few hundred noughts and then blew it in a betting shop in Dubai

Well it was worth the effort.

I am holding out in my damning evidence, in the form of a receipt for a stationary set that he bought for the little one, for the appropriate time.

Reb doesn't hold his cards close to his chest, he eats them.

I have it on good authority that you lifted this from another poster, who may or may not be one of your many personalities, would you kindly please quote things that you copy and paste from other places?

The person you copied this from is a friend of mine and probably doesn't appreciate you utilizing his words as your own.

[No Dylan]

Just looked at the poll. We have 40% idiots or are they Venky workers in India?

With Kean in charge we could take the crown from Derby for lowest ever number of premier league points

This poll has been around for a while now. Certainly when it was first posted I said that I would happily support Venky's if they got rid of Kean and got a real manager in. To a certain extent I still feel that way. However events of the last week, during which we could have been rid of them, has done a lot to change my mind, as I suspect it has with others.

If you reset the poll now I think there would be very different results.

I think its disgraceful that the venkys are trying to stifle the debate on this forum. I can understand if posters are overstepping

the mark but trying to control an active media site like this makes them look even worse, if that is possible.

They seem to happily ignore the fans views constantly totally ignoring their abysmal record of chronic mismanagement since they took

over. If we do get relegated which is looking increasingly likely, I wonder whether their interest will start to reduce even if it is

still in their words their baby.

[philipl]

It is obviously an Indian thing!

Buying toys and keeping them to yourself.

I spoke with David Yesterday for a good couple of hours and this is the best article I have seen to date by the press and captures so many of our concerns. I salute the Guardian and David Conn for making this article happen

[John]

Very accurate article and sums things up pretty well IMO.

Conn is one the best investigative sports reporters around. Excellent piece setting out for the uninitiated our dreadful position.

[miqaayil]

A very good article ... from a fan standpoint .... not the usual "fans are idiots" pieces we been seeing.

[Emge]

"We will absolutely respect the Jack Walker legacy and will be actively supporting the organisation to ensure that Blackburn Rovers remain one of the best-run clubs within the Premier League."

Amazing really...I mean, she actually said that!

So no, 1 year after the Venkys takeover we find ourselves in the middle of a nightmare and I am NOT supporting them as owners of Blackburn Rovers!

Venkys out!!!

First proper article in the nationals for a long time, I think Glen this has to be the way forward to get the point accross. For every negative article spun by the club we as fans need to convince a more reputable journo that we have a point.

[John]

Two of the best journalists around have written very good articles in recent times - Henry Winter and David Conn.

As Winter said correctly, we have no leadership on or off the pitch, BRFC fans deserve better.
