[Archived] Articles Related To Venky's And Rovers

[Glenn]

The photo caption "Steve Kean’s controversial appointment didn’t last too long". They should have tried being a fan in that era, it certainly felt like it lasted far too long!

New article from an Indian perspective

Good find! Strange how things can be freely said now and couldn't when it mattered.

[Bigdoggsteel]

One of the best and most honest articles about Venkys I have read

FA injunction 2.5 million and a JEROME injunction 

[DE.]

I've added a load of articles to the 2017 section of the front page, as well as a couple in 2016.

Nick Harris once again leads with his Story on Venkys, good read, tells it as it is/was.

They've stopped the 'deep clean' of the stadium they do every summer. People now having to look for work over the summer. That must have be saving £millions

When the club's budget is 50p, then it seems like it is.

There's an ever so slightly bigger problem than Venky's incompetence at running Rovers, and that is the fact that they clearly don't want to invest any money. You could possibly get away with bobbing along safely with one or the other, but they are doing neither.

From that article:-

'Mrs Desai and her family, who are understood only to be willing to sell to foreign owners. The Indians are also thought to be weighing up the sale of the ground’s rural Brockhall training ground'

That article is the depressing reality. 

Right I need to take some time away from following the club at the moment. It's not a healthy, positive place and I predict worse is to come, both short and long term. 

F*** you Venkys for what you have done to this historic club. Scum.

Someone predicted he would take a bit of time off, after today. He must have had enough.

[Mike Graham]

Plenty of tweets from well known former and current footballers and also articles in the Press attacking the Venky's.

Where have these people been, and why have they been silent, for the last few years?

Sadly we will probably be old news by next week.

I am really naffed off.

Henry Winter in The Times this morning.  An excellent article: "and they [Venkys] hid."

[Mattyblue]

Henry Winter has always took an interest in BRFC.

One of the few in the Fleet Street football corp with integrity.

[Gone to seed]

He should be writing the same for the Times of India, so the fat ignorant ones would stand a better chance of being force-fed the uncomfortable truth about their tenure at Ewood Park. Backwards stawt, the lot of them.

The only quarrel I'd have with Winter's article is that he seems to think the Lancashire Telefart is a newspaper.

Venky stawt Out, Cheston Out, Telefart Out. Cleaners In & Owners who are football people who care about BRFC In.

Not ashamed to say, this moved me to tears.

'From Steel to Chickens', how apt a metaphor for our ownership. There's a banner in there somewhere!

Same here mate. Think it was the reference to Howard Kendall's 79/80 squad that pushed me over the edge.

Funny how the media almost unanimously sees the horrendous position we are in but throughout the Kean era and beyond nothing but snidy remarks and scoffing at any attempts to protest. 

[LWX]

Why on earth would they only be willing to sell to foreign owners?
