Excellent post J-Biz


I'm so sick of this. I'm sure a few of you will be bouncing around happy this morning, but I am extremely angry about yesterday.

Any other owners wouldn't have this happen to the club. To have such ridiculous press. For instance, if the notion that they'd sack them is not something they are yet to consider, yesterday will cause the entire fan base to jump on the back of the manager if we have one more slip up, and the knives where sharpened yesterday in the extreme. Equally, if they are thinking of changing the manager - we have a week to the transfer shuts and we are in embargo. Taking those two into account would make me think that any change they have made must be well researched, timed and an appropriate replacement in the wings..... I cannot see this happening with Derek Shaw and the indians.

The notion thats really annoying me the most?; If this is another example of someone within the club jumping the gun, or releasing this kind of information to influence decisions - it's just another example of the kind of crap that is taking this club backwards. I think yesterday saw the dysfunctional setup cause yet more embarrassment for the fans of the club.

People can argue against that notion and suggest going backwards is all about negative tactics or sticking with Jason Lowe (harbinger of the apocalypse) etc - but if we have a board who are completely disconnected from the ownership, that has to resort to underhand tactics to sway decisions - how could anyone argue that this is not putting us back?

I said 5 games can change a lot, and if you'd asked me preseason should GB be replaced if we haven't won in 5 - well my answer would have been probably. I just cannot believe that it would be handled so badly AGAIN!!!!!!!!!

Yesterday has caused a heap of problems such as; if now there is the pressure on the owners from fans to sack, this could cause the exact problem we had with Kean where he became pillored from all angles yet hung onto his job for 2 years, or the world knowing we want a new manager rather than a private and well researched look being orchestrated and signed off before GB would be potted. There are more problems than this, such as further embarrassment in press and fans that will be baying for blood the next time we concede at Ewood. We need the fans behind the team, this is a fact.

If he does leave - what are the chances that Pearson, Lambert or someone of equal recent experience getting the job? I've already seen two regular posters suggest Colin Hendry but I don't think his community service for his recent crimes can be applied to being our manager for a year.

So yes, for the first time in a while GAV I am with you. Thats not to say I think running on the pitch is a good idea because its not.

This friday is time to protest the owners again. We are on TV, and we are sick of being made a joke by a bunch of tossers in PUNE. Before and after the game banners for all to see - big words "VENKYS - YOU TOOK OUR PRIDE, WHEN ARE YOU GOING TO RETURN IT?" with a picture of Jack Walker.

It would be a shame if you did stop posting with posts as well constructed as that. (and that's an 'Actually Factually')

Well calling them "Rovers Fans" and crap like that isn't going to help and is only going to give the more timid fans another reason not to join in with any protests.

people should just concentrate on what they themselves are going to do instead of getting at other people for doing nothing

you dont even make a half mile journey so JOG ON AND STOP @#/? STIRRING .

well sorry but in my opinion 2 incidents(regardless of how accurate your description of them are) are still not representative of the 000s of other fans that up to now haven't 'protested'

SICK OF YOUR ACCUSASATIONS OF ME LYING ....BACK IT UP YOU PILLOCK OR JUST SHUT UP .

Sorry abbey but 'back what up'? I'm not accusing you of lying, but come on! you do have to admit you're quite a dramatic guy that tends to exaggerate quite often on here about all kinds of things, so it does make it difficult to know when your telling the full story exactly as it happened, but ill leave it be.

Give it a rest TJ, nobody really cares if you believe it or not.

If you don't believe it don't post on the thread, simple.

I'll always protest but I'm still sore from how our fans reacted last time and I can imagine with a more acceptable manager in charge it will be even more of a sh*t storm. I remember handing out flyers outside the Blackburn end, people looked at me like scum and said really offensive things. Rovers fans have been spoon-fed titles, premier league football and even european football all at next nothing prices, yet when it comes to fighting for what they believe in they just don't have the bottle or simply don't care enough... Makes me sick and at a time of remembering a great man, I'm sure he would be ashamed. I resent most of our 'fans' now, don't like our owners, don't like the manager... Makes you wonder why even bother!

Modern day football fans and the modern day world play a part. Nobody fights for anything they believe in any more in this country it's just not the done thing. Too many do gooders as my old man would say.
