to be honest I don't care if we win or lose anymore, Kean has destoyyed this club for me, I don't enjoy anything, even he we score I know the first thing I think is whats that prat doing.

no point in losing anyway because it doesn't make a difference as said above.

It's not the same supporting Blackburn.

Why can;t Andy Cryer investigate what percentage of fans actually hate Kean, what does he want to do sit behind his desk.

Losing games is now a habit. Im getting used to it :( And what hurts the most these days isnt losing in it self, its in fact watching/reading Keans post-match interviews.

Its like he is rubbing salt in our wounds!

If I, one day, read that a group of fans has beated Kean up, giving him a black eye and really beaten him up real bad, it would actually made me smile and feel very good. That is how far we have come now.... :wacko: This is a Roversfan talking about the manager of my favourite team. This isnt how its supposed to be!!! F***!!!! (Kean being beaten up would be a bad thing though, in terms of all the support and sympathy he would gain from it....but the physical pain he would get from it, it would be totally worth it. I cant remember the last time I hated a man I didnt know this much!! )

I found myself in the strangest position today at 3-0 down. Never in all my years of supporting this fine old institution of English football have I ever felt like this....but....I was willing Stoke to rub our noses in it...5,6,7 nil. Just to bring an end to this charlatan's reign.

I think everyone knows now that there is something sinister going on at Blackburn Rovers.

Where are the journalists who are going to investigate this?

You are not alone. Myself and my family were watching thinking exactly the same thing. But then we realised that it probably wouldn't make a blind bit of difference because there is clearly something so rotten at the heart of our club that normal standards don't apply. My daughter, who works for the BBC, was saying that what she can't get her head round is the fact that all the journalists she hears say that they can't understand why the fans are so against Kean because all they are looking at is this season, when in many games he's worked against the background of protests. What they don't seem to realise is that the protests are about a year of mismanagement and that his own rubbish is what is bringing the protests against him, not unduly high expectations from spoilt fans.

I would lose every game till the end of the season if it guaranteed Kean and Venky's to dissappear for good, but then again if we won every game till the end of the season I would be happy as a pig in Burnley.

Very strange that is'nt it.

If Kenny Dalglish was taking the 1994 - 95 teamthrough the run that he is currently taking the club through, then Jack Walker would have got rid of him. It is a sad, sad state of affairs and very much like losing a loved one to a terminal disease.

When Stephen Warnock laid a wreath at the Kop in respect of the 20th anniversary of the Hillsborough disaster, the Liverpool echo described us as one of the most traditional and well respected clubs.

Two and a half years later, we are a laughing stock and staring into a very large and Portsmouth and Leeds shaped abyss.

we will not gain new support in the near future and there is a very real danger of support dissapearing.

The last time we got relegated there was no danger of losing support because there was a normal structure at the club that made a change raised fan optimism again and the club moved forwards again.................I simply don't see how or when this club will move forward again, kean has got his fix in and until whatever long drawn out con has finished here we are fooked and supporters will despair get tired and stop caring.

The best turnout IMO is for Venky's to install proper top-level management, fund them wisely to do the job, and leave well out. They might even get some return without doing any work themselves. Being too proud and not looking at the statistics is going to cost them millions. If they don't realise that now, then it's too late.

"Some return"?

Why should we ever have expected some Indian chicken farmers to be in this for just "some return"? Would that be how Jerome Anderson sold it to them?

Surely we should be thinking more along the lines of who would have something to gain by the current status quo and why. After all, Kean's new contract hardly suggests a desire for change...

I read it this way:

Walkers (never forget it) employed Kentaro to look for new owners. They found Venkys and convinced them that, at 43M Rovers were a great buy. After all, the assets are obvious-------valuable players (Kean keeps stressing this as a sign of success), the best crop of future valuable players in years, a ground that needs nothing doing to it, thanks to Jack,---saving 500M cf Everton, state of the art facilities at Brockhall, and ,above all, a guaranteed 50+M every year from the Premier League. I think its notable that the only time Venkys have got off their arse and done anything is when Jones was sold to United for too small a sum. We assumed they were fighting for the club but it was really about their own take, I'm quite convinced of that.

Kentaro introduced them to one of their clients, Steve Kean, who convinced them that, with Kentaro's help, he could build a squad of younger payers who could be bought for very little. He would train them and keep them in the Premier League, while they endlessly got big fees for players sold and Kentaro advised on new ones. Since none of the family knew anything about running any football club, let alone an English Premier League one, this would be of great appeal. Kentaro would benefit from the agency fees and Kean would be rewarded for "developing' them (as he has been).

The final icing on the cake------Venkys would automatically get massive exposure for their brand at a time when they were seeking to expand their business into Europe. Oh and Balaji got something to play with.

That's the plan. It couldn't be carried out with existing senior staff so they had to go, as had the auditors. Nothing to do with football success.

The fallacy in the scheme is that Kentaros would have to identify the right players----(they haven't) and Kean would have to keep us in the Premiership for the scheme to work for any period of time (he won't), and a decent admin structure would be needed to run the ship (there isn't one).

So, from the beginning the Raos were different from other would-be owners in that they wanted to own a football club without football being relevant to their aims except in a very indirect way. Explains why they are never here and never bothered to set up a management structure to replace the one they dismantled. A waste of money from their point of view and could threaten the way they wanted to benefit.

So its all going wrong now points-wise but there is no corrective action from the owners because there is no Plan B. If (when?) we are relegated Venkys will simply weigh up the financial implications--their lives will not be changed dramatically like our's will be, if at all.

They would get 30M (easily) from the sale of players, a significant sum for Brockhall and some sort of fee for a Championshp club with a great ground and a wonderful history from somebody. And we will never hear from them again. Kean will be paid off according to his new contract and Kentaro's will benefit from the sale of players.

Only BRFC and the fans will be left with nothing.

I stress that this is only my opinion. If true, Venkys have no connection to the club other than what they can gouge out of it, have no long-term interest in us despite their often-expressed views to the contrary and cannot be swayed other than by fear of financial loss.We simply do not count.

(I know nothing about Glasgow gangsters money laundering by the way and someone would have to work hard to convince me on that one. I'm open to suggestions though!)
