[Archived] BRFC Action Group

[pk1875]

it would be great if BRAG could explain how Singh 'has pulled the club up off the floor'???? I wonder if BRAG's memebership agree with that statement?

Also that BBC article states that according to Shaw it was Singh who appointed Berg. Glen Mullan said it was a joint decision???

BRAG are very odd.

Derek Shaw stated that he singh and agnew all drew up a shortlist, the only name on all 3 was Berg, they all interviewed him and that he was chosen.

What are you on about you Grumpy Old Fart?

See my post posted just as you posted what you posted as I made my post retracting what I had posted in my earlier post

BRAG are very odd.

Steve Kean said a lot of odd things when he was trying to cling to his bit of power . Even Shebby said it was down to him, for me they're just trying to protect their own backs because their true motives are starting to be brought to light.

I'm sure all you little scamps realise that BRAG was referring to Bowyer

Now what is the plan of action. Obviously Glens resignation is first on the agenda followed by the election of a replacement but how soon after that will communication end and hostilities commence?

Paranoid much? Why do you believe everyone has an anti-BRAG agenda? Could it not be that the only people with an agenda are BRAG themselves? The blatant pro-Shebby bias by Glen Mullan in particular is beyond comprehension.

BRAG comments about Appleton appointment are pathetic and not needed at this time.

I understand they represent their members but dont speak for each and every fan who support Rovers.

the BRAG have done alot of good things but shouldnt be involve next manager choices or decision who to choose

[roverzee]

I have no choice but to leave it to the Blackburn Rovers Action Group to clarify who that one man is. I apologize if I was the one who was mistaken and they really meant Shebby Singh.

However, I have good reason to believe that they were talking about Gary Bowyer......though that isn't something I can guarantee.

It's totally unacceptable whether they mean Singh OR Bowyer. For obvious reasons if they actually do mean Singh.

If they don't mean Singh, then how has an 8,000 member organisation elected a Press Officer AND a Communications Officer who are so bloody useless they have allowed a stupidly ambiguous statement to appear on an international news website.

It will be read by millions, and interpreted by many of those millions as meaning Singh, exposing our club to yet further ridicule.

People reading around the world on the BBC website will think that all fans of BRFC are represented by that one poorly written paragraph. Whatever was meant, the damage is done and can't be repaired.

BRAG really have to shut the f*** up, even if they did spend all night reading emails from their members. What a @#/? joke.

Derek Shaw stated that he singh and agnew all drew up a shortlist, the only name on all 3 was Berg, they all interviewed him and that he was chosen.

You need to contact the BBC then and ask them to retract their comment. I remember Shaw saying that Berg was not his 1st choice, or words to that effect.

Were you involved the statement that has appeared in a slightly different guise on the BBC website? Would you care to confirm whether you were referring to Gary Bowyer or Shebby Singh?

[Baz]

Why isnt the press release on the brag website? The one about mckinley is.

Any reason why the group you belong to claimed that shebby 'had pulled the club up off the floor'?

[Ricky]

You guys make me laugh. It's obvious they are referring to Gary Bowyer. The statement separated the one man from the boardroom, and the first person that should come to mind is Gary Bowyer (though it should be two if you want to include Terry McPhillips). Unless you guys are saying Gary Bowyer didn't do a hell of a job and pulled the club off the floor, which would send me floored with the utter ridiculousness that has been engulfing our club since Venkys took over..

Sometimes people are so blinded by their hatred (okay, maybe that's too strong a word) or whatever that they see weird faults in perfectly innocent statements.

Read it again! Maybe some people are so blinded by their loyalty or whatever that the can't see a perfectly clear statement.

[Rover_Shaun]

I read it again and it's Shebby "while others in the boardroom" gives it away

[DE.]

Why are people acting like BRFCAG having bias towards Shebby is a shocker?

He's the main source of info, and their link to both the club and the owners. Doesn't take a genius to work out they're going to hold some bias towards him. Whether they should hold that bias is another matter entirely, but unless you're a member of BRFCAG it shouldn't matter.

[pk1875]

You need to contact the BBC then and ask them to retract their comment. I remember Shaw saying that Berg was not his 1st choice, or words to that effect.

Indeed he did say Berg was not his first choice, he said to me that Berg was not anyone's first choice, but that they all had him on a shortlist.

[glen9mullan]

Its not shebby at all, its referring to Bowyer, as the second paragraph goes straight into.

Singh aint a Rovers employee, this is the boardroom who have put the uncertainty into Bowyer and everyone else over the last week.

Why do people always try and turn words around to suit agendas?

[Ricky]

What agenda do I have Glen. Surely you can see how it reads. 'Others in the boardroom' rather than 'others, in the boardroom' is where the confusion comes in. That comma makes it mean something completely different.

Can you not see how it reads?

[Elegia]

All this playground posturing is a waste of time. At the end of the day all BRAG want is the same as all of us. An end to the farce the club has become.

It is obvious to me that the anti BRAG feelings increase everytime the venkys/shebby/agnew/shaw/whoever makes another crazy decision. All the keyboard warriors need someone to vent at and BRAG is the target of choice.

Instead of asking BRAG to justify all it does vent at venkys/shebby/shaw/agnew - WAKE UP PEOPLE!!!! these are the clowns who are decimating our beloved Rovers.

[Ricky]

And it would appear the majority who have read it on BBC came to the same conclusion.

[Tyke87]

It doesn't read like that at all so how are people twisting words? "While one man has tried to pull the club off the floor others in the board room have turned the club into a national laughing stock'' Points towards you speaking about Shebby. If you were on about Bowyer why not just say the board room rather than others in the board room?

Rubbish. What has GB done in your view to lift the club off the floor in the very short time he has been in temporary charge?

I'm sorry but in that case the organisation needs to stop issuing such obscure statements.

[Elegia]

Don't see any mention here of Shebby being part of the boardroom team to be fair

[Roost]

Don't see any mention http://www.rovers.co.uk/club/whoswho/'>here of Shebby being part of the boardroom team to be fair

Nor does it show him as part of the coaching staff, but that don't stop him wearing a track suit.

Can you put a copy of the full statement either on here, on on the BRAG website please Glen?

[glen9mullan]

You being serious?

1 win in 10 under Berg, drifting down the table, then Boywer comes in 3 wins on bounce, told last week he has job til end of the month, Agnew issued a statement on it, then finds out 5 minutes before club statement last night that he is being replaced.

Players were buzzing again, players were playing for him.

Why does every thread have to turn into a fan bashing thread?

More to the point why does shebby singh have to be brought into every thread
