Yeah sod winning football matches, Kelly Rowland, David Guetta and Akon is exactly what we need!

I'd have money on Rowland being better than Myles. Something to look at anyway. As for the boy Akon?! Who??

Cloud. Cuckoo. Land.

Imbeciles.

How ironic - some of the words to one of Akon's most memorable, sorry irritating hits:

Lonely (so lonely) I'm Mr. Lonely (Mr. Lonely)

I have nobody (I have nobody)

For my own (to call my own girl)

I'm so Lonely (so lonely)

I'm mr. Lonely (Mr. Lonely)

I have nobody (I have nobody)

For my own (to call my own girl)

Can't believe I hadda girl like you (Not a cat's chance in wotnot, Keano!)

and I just let you walk right outta my life

after all I put u thru (monumental understatement)

u still stuck around and stayed by my side (not yours, Keano - BRFC's)

what really hurt me is I broke ur heart (yup)

baby you a good girl and I had no right (suppresses huge desire to swear)

I really wanna make things right (Where's Karl Pilkington when you need him?)

cuz

without u in my life girl I'm so... (Please feel free to complete the sentence!)

Whenever I think Venky's have redefined "moronic", they plumb new depths of idiocy.

They are just a bunch of dyspeptic kids aren't they.

Nobody can remotely take these chickens seriously. Venky's is a joke business run by a disfunctional group of posers. No wonder their share price has nearly halved since they bought Rovers- they have completely rumbled themselves as fools of the first order.

They've done plenty Wrong but I'm not sure how daft this one is.

Didn't we have a similar concert on ewood in the past?

At least we know what the drinks license was for now :P

Tom, have you any idea of the economics (lack of) of a crazy gig like that? Believe me, having promoted over 100 music events from the Royal Albert Hall down, that idea is bonkers squared.

It would lose so much money that we could have afforded to bring back Phillippe Huber instead.

As for similar concerts, we used to have a brass band going round the touchline at halftime.

23rd May 2004 we had Blue and Girls Aloud at Ewood just checked.

It may make no odds but at least I ain't going completely crazy

Edit: although I did miss a key word in the article - that word being free

Double edit: I also missed the date of it, well that will teach me to quickly read through things

You dont think having 20,000 people on the pitch 2 days before the start of the season is daft?

You dont think planning this whilst we couldnt agree terms with the bank when we desperately needed new signings was daft?

You think that Rovers fans really wanted a pop concert?

Honestly?

(The one in the past was done by Rock FM, not Balaji Entertainments corp.)

Entirely daft and a complete waste of money. Balaji and his daft (being polite here) dreams eh? If I expressed my real feelings about this bunch of inept fxxkwits, I'd be banned from the internet.

What really gets my goat is that they thought they could buy off Rovers' fans by giving them a free concert.

Closely followed by the mind-numbing incompetence of it all. I'm at the end of my tether with these people.

I thought Akon would have done it for free. He is a Rovers fan isn't he?

The article linked at the bottom was interesting; Allardyce promised January transfer funds. Written on November 26th 2010. The last sentence is telling.

Indeed. 'We would never want to upset the fans'...... :wacko:

Aahhhhhhhhhh, so thats why when I ring Ewood they answer,'You rang' :lol:

I can only reiterate my assesment of Balaji, he is the double in intelligence of Jethro in the Beverley Hillbillies, they had money too but Jethro had the brain of a 9 year old!!

In the forties and fifties PNE sometimes played in the morning, 11 am KO and Rovers played in the afternoon.

A popular pub question at the time was, "Who played at Deepdale in the morning and Ewood in the afternoon?"

The answer was "Brindle Band!".
