den Posted May 14, 2013 Posted May 14, 2013 As for what happened post takeover you are conveniently ignoring the fact that Anderson has gone on record stating he advised the owners NOT to sack Allardyce. Jesus Rev. Anderson didn't want Allardyce sacked "at that time". It's obvious to everyone that the plan was always to put in a manager who would work with the "plan".

philipl Posted May 15, 2013 Posted May 15, 2013 John Williams and the Walker Trust were conspired against and deceived in my opinion. They have tongues, key boards and lawyers and are completely at liberty to correct my opinion if I am mistaken in my view of what happened when Rovers were sold..
philipl Posted May 15, 2013 Posted May 15, 2013 Yes there is.I wonder who his snitch is? Very often the Press Officer is the obvious source. Off the record of course.
dave birch Posted May 15, 2013 Posted May 15, 2013 Surely, if a "crime" has/had been committed, then that would negate any NDA? We just need the floodgates to open.
perthblue02 Posted May 15, 2013 Posted May 15, 2013 Just off topic , but did you know Venky's farm house is on NDA road in Pune., quite amusing really. Wonder if there's a connedbyagent avenue near by.

Fife Rover Posted May 15, 2013 Posted May 15, 2013 What's next??? Fans who've been to the matches and all the protests are better fans than those who've just been to games? Love isn't about who did what and how, it's a connection between two things a strong emotional based one. I don't love my missus less when I go to London or abroad, i don't love her more when I buy her flowers. Love isn't about range, when it's there it's on. you see I see being a fan of Rovers as love, I never loved rovers less when I was routing around the greek newsagents everyday looking for any rovers news in the 90's. My love was no less than it is now, we lose I'm sad, we win I'm happy even now after all that's gone on, I love rovers, its on or off, there is no inbewteen. Distance, money, memronbilia all of that depends of personal circumstance none of which for me has any barring on love and being a fanatic of Rovers definitly constitutes love. It shouldn't be an issue and it's the one thing we all share and now even that's dissappearing under Venky's stewardship. Now I'm not assigning blame everyone is guilty and blame leads nowhere, but it shouldn't be an issue between fans... Absolutely got it in one well worded succinct post Maj. This post should be frozen and permanently displayed, that all might learn to see the situation as it actually is for ALL of us who see themselves as true fans of BRFC. Maybe then they would stop all this hurling of idle abuse at each other and concentrate fire on the actual enemy!!
PAFELL Posted May 15, 2013 Posted May 15, 2013 sorry, that's old news mate, that articles been knocking around for years. Yet after all this time nobody has said who told Cole this information.
Leonard Venkhater Posted May 15, 2013 Posted May 15, 2013 Absolutely got it in one well worded succinct post Maj. This post should be frozen and permanently displayed, that all might learn to see the situation as it actually is for ALL of us who see themselves as true fans of BRFC. Maybe then they would stop all this hurling of idle abuse at each other and concentrate fire on the actual enemy!! That highlighted sentence nails it for me. Always remember who the enemies really are. Last August I wouldn't have felt comfortable, whatever decision I made. For me, buying a season ticket felt like giving blood to a family of vampires. On the other hand, not going felt like deserting my team. This is a difficult time for those who love Rovers. People should be allowed their individual responses without recrimination. I would still like to find a creative way to protest that humiliated Venky's, affected their marketing and gained sympathy from the general football public. I have fantasies about walking onto the pitch during a televised game, dressed as the Grim Reaper, but, as you can see, I am not well!
broadsword Posted May 21, 2013 Posted May 21, 2013 That h For me, buying a season ticket felt like giving blood to a family of vampires. Nicely put
OJRovers Posted May 23, 2013 Posted May 23, 2013 http://www.independent.co.uk/sport/football/premier-league/steve-kean-in-the-dark-at-blackburn-as-venkys-admits-to-total-confusion-7782476.html A year since they were "totally confused" Has anything changed? Is the June deadline since being honoured for released of more info?
pedebumchin Posted May 23, 2013 Posted May 23, 2013 I thought the comment from Glen et al was that unless an investigation was started, they would start to publish. Following the initial story there was this in the Daily Fail saying that the investigation had started. http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/football/article-2308641/Nick-Harris-FA-investigate-Blackburn-Rovers.html The FA's head of integrity, David Newton, is leading the investigation and documents seen by Inside Sport show he is looking at situations surrounding the takeover of Rovers in 2010 as well as control of the club since then and the involvement of agents and advisers. 'This is an ongoing matter,' said an FA source last week. So my understanding is that, as an investigation has started, nothing will be released by BRAG yet.
OJRovers Posted May 23, 2013 Posted May 23, 2013 Fair enought, any idea if David Newton has got anywhere with his investigations?
Leonard Venkhater Posted May 23, 2013 Posted May 23, 2013 Every silver lining has a cloud. I will have to lose this middle 8 from "I threw the snowball at Madame Desai".... "What if this was Tottenham or the Arsenal? The FA, do you think they'd hang around? But I guess it doesn't pay A useless F.A. In a little northern town..."
Sparky Marky Posted May 23, 2013 Posted May 23, 2013 You have to be on the market for yonks in order for these shysters to get involved, coupled with desperate vendors. That would never happen at a club like spurs or arsenal. We were sold down the river by the walker family/trust, that's the top and bottom of it really.

Guest Norbert Posted June 3, 2013 Posted June 3, 2013 The FA et al probably need to buy new paper shredders, hence the delay! It's good to know that the pressure is being kept up.
Backroom Tom Posted June 3, 2013 Backroom Posted June 3, 2013 Have the group corrected the telegraph about the name? May only seem minor but there was a bit of a kerfuffle in the past about the name 'BRAG' Seems a bit amateur that the telegraph refer to a group by the wrong name when publishing quotes from them

T.J.Newton Posted June 3, 2013 Posted June 3, 2013 It's become pointless to be critical about brag, as like with shabby they are their own worst enemy(the head started feasting on the tail before dinner was served)
Sparky Marky Posted June 3, 2013 Posted June 3, 2013 Bloody Hell! Have them findings not been published yet? What you waiting for Mr. Mullan? We've now been shunted to the arse end of the championship, so when's the time? Where are those findings?
T.J.Newton Posted June 3, 2013 Posted June 3, 2013 The 'findings' are irrelevant, they'd possibly get a few tabloid headlines(if its a slow sports news day!) then be forgotten about and brushed under the carpet with the rest of the scandals.
