[Archived] Next protest

[47er]

I see the schools have broken up.

I'd temper that amusement a little Samantha, Bumley aren't quite in a position to throw stones just now, and you are very likely to end up banned.

Let's hope so!

Meeting with club postponed by Nick Harris ? My link

[Wing Wizard Windy Miller]

To be honest, it sounded like nothing so much as a football club collectively spitting it's dummy out that it no longer has a sugar daddy to keep it from the real world.

It was a night when the myth of a well run family club was finally nailed. The well-run bit was always the most amusing, as the club amassed debts and was bailed out every year by a widely criticised Trust (regrets?). Then the family club bit dies a death as the watching football world sees a stadium full of spoilt brats - very few of whom had even an interest in football before Jersey Jack offered them the chance to arrogantly revel in their false position - throwing a tantrum at how unfair it all is.

Well suck it up guys. We'll wave to you as you pass through the tried and tested Championship & Administration route. PNE and Rochdale await in League One if you're still around then.

If you're waiting for sympathy from the national media and fellow fans, you'll be waiting a good while.

(Please don't use that word again) off Dingle.

[LeftWinger]

Protest? What protest? All you can hear is Bolton fans. Going down without a whimper - and I don't mean the players.

There was quite a lot of noise and anger directed at Kean last night. Definitely reached new levels.

What do you expect from CHICKENS.

What about the meeting with Kean? He's got more front than Blackpool.

[Neil Weaver]

Apologies if this causes offence to anyone, that isn't the intention.

Something occurred to me : Venky's are like a cancer running through our club. Kean is a tumour, and the surgical team have almost finished pre-op and the operating theatre is ready. The tumour will soon be removed (we hear). But that won't cure the cancer. I don't know what's equivalent to chemotherapy in this analogy, but we need it (pronto).

[roversWASmylife]

Let's see how much the fans really want Kean out.

Yellow shirts, boos and the odd half arsed chant isn't enough. If that's the best that can be mustered then we deserve to keep him

And you were giving it all sat away tapping at your laptop I bet?!

I've only been to three games all season at Ewood, having been to the last two games at Ewood I've never seen or heard anything like it. Under Ince was bad, i remember Wigan away in December 2008 when we were 3-0 down (I think) and Ince was hurled with abuse that game, but never anything like this. Kean was recieving abuse before the game even started. I was in the Riverside seen what happened in the Darwen End with the banners came out, stewards attmepting to remove them, last night could have turned extremely nasty, the stewards and Police knew that.

I don't think anyone on here expects sympathy. Rovers have done well to keep their heads above water in the Premiership for far too long, going down to the good work of John Williams and co. Venkys have come in with ridiculous and un-realistic ambitions. What annoys me is that how a very successfully run club just over a year ago to the mess that the club is in now. Nobody knows what Venkys are up to really, Kean is the clown in charge, his record speaks for itself.

You lot can laugh, but I'll still be there following whenever I can whether that's in the Premiership or Championship.

We're not looking for sympathy you feckin Hill Troll. You'd be doing the same if you were in the same position.

BTW where have all your premiership millions gone. Kilbys off shore account perhaps.

On the bright side. We get to take the pish out you numptys again......

[BlueMonday]

Listen Mods.

There's no point deleting SD's post and any irrate responses if your going to leave

his post quoted in other peoples posts. Whats the point of that.

His post remains and we have our responses removed. I reserve the right to

take offence at a gloating Dingle.

Unless this is Clarets Mad?

I think a stand out protest is now needed. NO1 buy tickets and stand outside the stadium protesting while the games are going niow, we are now relegated so we are not risking anything.

What about boycotting an away game?No one buy a ticket and have NO fans in the away section?that would be a statement and would stop us giving any more money to Venkys or Kean. It would then solve the dilemma for ST holders who have already paid for their tickets and dont want to waste it.

[AlanK]

In all my years following Rovers and football in general I have never heard the like of last night's anti Kean and Venkys protests. I don't know, nor care, how it came across on TV and radio but the message was cascading down the stands all night. - even from that hot bed of rebellion the JW upper!!!!

It's clear both are finished at Ewood Park. Sadly though so is Blackburn Rovers, we will be VERY fortunate if a club still exists to support next season.

Agreed Paul.

Watched on TV and you could easily sense the volatility. Thought there was going to be a pitch invasion at times.

ONLY a Dingle could be this bitter and twisted!

[Paul Mellelieu]

With Kean a dead-man walking the focus has now got to be on exposing Venky's rotten ownership.

[1864roverite]

I wont be venturing into Ewood again until this useless TW*T is removed from the managers chair.

[Torgeir]

Didn't people (ITK's) say they had information that they couldn't reveal? Well, if they cannot reveal it now then when can they? It's obvious that Venky's have destroyed our club. Looking at our player's faces post match last night and it was like we were already relegated. Venky's should have acted straight after the game, or at the latest this morning. Boycott games and protest against the ownership. Campaign against their products, send letters.

Issue a joint statement from supporter clubs around the world.

This is driving me nuts.

[Torgeir]

Maybe Kean actually wants out of the job but won't resign because Venky's won't give him a pay-off. Venky's, of course, don't want to pay him off because they're stingy gits.

So they're playing the waiting game, and we're suffering.

[PAFELL]

If it can be proved that Jerome Anderson.etc are Rovers owners, with venkys as a 'front'. This should be exposed. I AM NOT SAYING THAT IS THE SITUATION, BUT, I AM WONDERING IF THIS.IS THE SITUATION. May explain why kean is 100% certain that he will not be sacked. Maybe the real.owners are his own agent.

Rovers are going down and financial melt down. So find the proof and bring these people down with us.

Evidence is required.

There should have been pitch invasion and there needs to be a pitch invasion, en masse by several thousand supporters.

The watching TV world needs to to know about the anger in the town and among supporters about how the club is being run.

And if the authorities dock us points or fine the club what does it matter any more ?

I think this is the case, if the fans drive him out it saves them having to dip into thier own money to get rid.

Did notice that there was no music at the final whistle last night.

a bit like this, but alot more fans ovbiously

[OhmiBRFC]

It wouldn't be possible to get on the pitch. Too many stewards and Police.

[cmb211087]

It would have been last night. All that was in front of my section was one steward and a few press photographers!

[BlueMonday]

They should perhaps have thought of that when they 'revised' his contract and rewarded him for failure.

Had to laugh at the Daily Mails preview of the match yesterday.

"....mirroring how bizarre things are getting at Ewood park these days the injury list includes not Hamstrings or groin strains, but testicles!..."

[m0r94n]

As a reaction to the various pieces in the papers and on sports blogs, are there any plans for perhaps an open letter to be sent from ourselves to the media and fans of other clubs? Everywhere I go the comments seem to be along the lines of "Blackburn "fans" should be ashamed" and "The behaviour is disgusting". Yes we may well know ourselves the true extent of what is happening here, but if we were perhaps to answer these claims in a collective manner we could gain some support from other clubs.

Edit: The format could potentially be in based around a question, such as "Why do we want Kean gone?" and have fans submit an answer (maybe put a word/character restriction on submissions?). A selection of the best are then voted on to decide which answer is used for that particular question?

[ABBEY]

I'm no longer a protester as of tommorow I'm widow abbey... My club has died today by them scum not doing what any normal owners would do and pot the unsackable knob
