THe Letter

We are writing to you as disgruntled Blackburn Rovers Supporters and loyalists. 1875. The year our club was founded. The year our history was created. For 136 years, our beloved club has fought its battles, on and off the pitch. But never, never in our extensive and proud history, have the fans felt so outraged, disappointed and let down.

Broken promises, lies and the continued backing of one of the most inept and unsuccessful managers in the history of Blackburn Rovers, Steve Kean, has seen our beloved club turn from a successful mid-table outfit, pushing upwards with regular finals cup runs, to a team who cant put a win together. The statistics are damning. Steve Kean has a managerial win percentage of 20%, the lowest of any Blackburn Rovers manager in the modern Premier League era. Steve Kean has organized the least clean sheets, the worst opening start to a Premier League season and the longest winless streak for our beloved club.

I stress our beloved club. This is our club. Not yours, and at the rate you are going, it will never be your club. We accepted Venkys into our club. We appreciated the fresh investment, the new outlook, the future. However, you have not delivered. You brought along your advisors, Mr. Jerome Anderson and Co. The whole footballing community knows of the history of Kentaro/SEM, and it seemed like you realized this as well when your “agents” fees for the signings of Mauro Formica, Ruben Rochina and co seemed a little out of the ordinary. Yet you seem to persist with this organisation, and Steve Kean. Why is this? What does Venkys have to lose by sacking Steve Kean and completely removing Kentaro/SEM.

In due time this will all come out, and Venkys will be outed if you persist with the current means of running our club. What we want is the dismissal of Steve Kean. The longer he stays as head of our club, the less time we have to dig ourselves out of this mess. You dismissed Sam Allardyce and Neil McDonald, you oversaw Mr. Williams and Mr. Finn leaving the club, yet you persist with Steve Kean.

We will not stop. We will persist. We are a peaceful and respectful group. All we ask is the best interests of our football club. We will continuously attempt to make contact with your organisation until we receive a response. We are not 1%. We are a global community watching the club we have grown to love fall into pieces. This letter is being forwarded onto Rovers supporters across the globe, who will in turn forward it onto you. You will see we are not the small minority, we are a vocal majority. The marches will continue. The protests will continue. The sit-ins will continue.

And it will not end there. We will attack were it hurts. You will not receive our hard earned cash. Rovers Store sales will slow down, individuals are already canceling Rovers Player membership, and match boycotts will occur. That is not our limits. We will hit the press. In England, in the UK, in Europe, in Asia, in India and wherever a Blackburn Rovers supporter is, it will be seen. This is not a threat, this is a promise. You might have the millions of $$$, but nothing will stop us pushing our cause.

We are Blackburn Rovers. You are not.

Blackburn Rovers Supporter

Why do you need to email them? you were talking to them today! or so you said

[Rovers_786]

Why do you need to email them? you were talking to them today! or so you said

I did talk to them ,but not this man i spoken to his other brother.

[Billy Castell]

Did you tell him to knock some sense into Mrs. Desai?

[yoda]

I did talk to them ,but not this man i spoken to his other brother.

Give us his telephone number then

[Rovers_786]

Give us his telephone number then

Sadly I cant ,it took me 2 months to dig these contacts.

[Billy Castell]

Ring and tell him the club ust be sold as soon as possible.

[yoda]

Sadly I cant ,it took me 2 months to dig these contacts.

Sadly, I think you are bullstiening this MB

[Rovers_786]

Ring and tell him the club ust be sold as soon as possible.

I said what I had to say, there listen to me now we see what will happen.

[yoda]

I said what I had to say, there listen to me now we see what will happen.

If I had the telephone number of a Rao (not the Blackburn resident ones) I would make sure all the rovers fans I know also had it

[PLJPB]

From what has been said on this messageboard e-mailing Balaji will not work.

The e-mails need to reach Mrs D herself since she is the one making the decisions.

Anyone got an e-mail address that will reach her?

[Billy Castell]

How's this for a letter?

Dear Mrs Desai,

You and your brothers have ____ed up our club through sheer stupidity and incompetence. Just sell the club and ___ off immediately you sack of ____s. If you don't leave we will eat your children and use their skulls as cricket boxes. And your chicken is rubbish.

love,

Blackburn Rovers fans.

E-mails/letter do nothing with these tools. A well aimed bullet seems the only way they would pay any attention to what is going on, though that is slightly dramatic.

[Rovers_786]

If I had the telephone number of a Rao (not the Blackburn resident ones) I would make sure all the rovers fans I know also had it

I know where you coming from but,please respect my words. I was told I cant give the number out i got to respect that person wish if I did give the number to the fans ,their would say bad things to them and that will keep kean in the job.

if you e-mail the club their could help you.

[Billy Castell]

Sorry, I couldn't quite follow that last post Rovers_786. I respect that you don't want to give out private phone numbers on a public website.

[yoda]

I know where you coming from but,please respect my words. I was told I cant give the number out i got to respect that person wish if I did give the number to the fans ,their would say bad things to them and that will keep kean in the job.

Bullstein

Blackburn Rovers is at stake

[Rovers_786]

Respect my Decision cheers.

[yoda]

Respect my Decision cheers.

Whimp,

[Rovers_786]

I will make it clear, I shall not give the number out thank you ,this is my last respond on this matter.

[AllRoverAsia]

I will make it clear, I shall not give the number out thank you ,this is my last respond on this matter.

Good. Let this thread go back to where it started...A Letter to Venkys.

give the number in a PM to Glenn, Kamy or Tom M you can trust them as Admin/mod's, they can confirm whether you are a complete bullsh1ter or not.

Obviously you'll find an excuse not to do this.

[DeadlyDirk]

Well I've forwarded the email on with the following prefix

I write to you as a fan of Blackburn Rovers. The reason for my email is your running of the club up until now, particularly the continued support of Mr Steve Kean who's record should really speak for itself. It is not speculation, or an exageration that this man statisticly has the worst record of any past Rovers manager and for that matter one of the worst Premiership managerial records of all time. Despite this he has been backed by the club continually even though he has very limited experience of managing in a crisis or management in general. Make no mistake about it, we are in a crisis and look set for relegation unless there is a change.

I forward on to you an email from a fellow Rovers supporter who has a much better way with words than myself which explain how I feel, they may not be my own words but I agree with everything and simply wanted to prefix this email with my own words so you do not make the assumption that the email is from the same group of people with various different email addresses as you have suggested in the past.
