What will happen if we lose Tuesday and Saturday ? Will fans care enough then to get angry or will you boo shout venkys out a couple of times and go home quietly ?

Rovers are screwed under these morons and will continue to be so unless there is radical change in the Venky's thought process or they decide to move on. I am angry and have been for the past two years but what I think and the rest of fans think will make no difference whatsoever.

There is a nuclear option on the table, a completely empty Ewood for a game. There is no way such a move could be spinned by the owners or any PR company to be anything other than a protest. But when i mentioned that concept a while back I was heavily criticised for suggesting it.

I have been on every protest, I've been outside brockhall at minus 500c (it felt like that and I was on a motorbike ) , I've greeted them twice outside ewood and stared bling porn venky in the eye and ranted at him and I collared a venky delegate outside the DW stadium last season and nearly got nicked for doing so.

The thing is, so have many. I think the best we can hope for is BRAG's investigation to cause some damage and get some home truths out in the open....

They are usless owners, and everyone is angry- but really, what can we do??

For me they dont deserve it to be honest. Those days are long gone. Harry Redknapp said it the other night there in an interview (post match i think) about the players needing to play out of their skin in the championship and not be moaning etc. For us that hasnt been the case all season!

There as deluded as Kean and Shebby if thats the case!

Delusion seems a strong point among a lot of Rovers fans, and it isn't limited to fans from the British Isles.

Met a guy on the train at Manchester Airport heading to the Wigan home game last year. "The Raos are good owners" he said, not a hint of irony/ sarcasm. Seemed intelligent too.

Scary.

Agreed - but the team should be doing a lot better, maybe we wouldn't have made promotion, but certainly could have been in contention for play-offs. That isnt being deluded, is it?

How could anyone consider the owners to be good? Surely you dont need access to social media, forums to see how crap the owners are.

On paper yes. The reality for me is that we don't have enough hungry players, all the big earners quite simply don't have the necessary desire to scrap and fight which is sometimes what is required in this league. Last season I saw that Norwich played a game early on and nine of their starting eleven had played non league football and come through the lower league. Their desire to suceed is sometimes the difference and sadly the players we expected much more from don't have that desire. We are now lumbered with these players and they will take some shifting.

Did anyone see those naughty Hull fans on the pitch yesterday? Well, Ive just rung HCFC and 2,396 of them were arrested and 2,396 received banning orders. The 3,724 Cardiff fans that went on when they sealed their promotion were all arrested and 3,724 also received banning orders. The 1,998 Huddersfield fans who ended up on the green stuff were also arrested and received banning orders, etc etc.

Proper football fans.

There were no arrests and no banning orders down at the renamed Ewood Meek & Mild Park.

Venky's know they can do what they want without response.

Oh. How angry were they?

Clubs can be lenient and treat people with a certain spirit when fans are celebrating.

A mass pitch invasion of angry or belligerent fans could be treated very differently.

Hell, our club bans banners; body searches women; and children and drown out shouts with the tannoy, so what do you think they'll do with a mass Anti-Venkys pitch invasion?.

The Riverside stand doesn't help with its concourse and the people who sit in the Jack Walker Stand are hardly going to kick up a fuss. Therefore a pitch invasion can only come from the Blackburn End if the Darwen End are just away fans. Just some logistical thinking to a pitch invasion.

Steve Kean would have been in threat of physical violence that's for sure if a thousands of people went onto the pitch, especially with his "I'm not f'ing going anywhere." Considering we were tarnished as being awful fans for shouting at Kean, imagine if he had actually got physically assaulted. I know Givet and/or N'Zonzi and/or Nelson did it to him last season but still.
