[Archived] Meeting With The Club - Brfcs Attendees ?

[AndyNeil]

If we unleash ABBEY, they will just unleash Terry.

unless my eyes are failing me, which I very much hope they aren't, Terry was pictured with a Ewood Blues/Venkys Out banner at QPR over the weekend

[glen9mullan]

I would attend if others would like me to , but im easy

[Mike E]

I think AndyNeil and Glen would be ideal in setting a tone for the first meeting. Well-respected members on here.

In fact Glen should be MADE to attend every one

[chaddyrovers]

I would like Glen and AndyNeil to attend these as they are very good well respected members plus very knowledge aswell.

Also Preston Blue should be part of it

[Baz]

Kamy

SteB

Glen

+2 more for me. (Not that any of the previous volunteers aren't appropriate- just so others can step forward). Although I wouldn't put myself forward anyway, 6pm in Blackburn is impossible for me without taking time off work.

We need to agree on questions to be asked before hand with follow up questions. I know it is a waste of time but maybe well planned questions can be thought out with the group on here. Maybe in ABBEY's private area (does that sound rude:-)) if it is set up, unless they want the questions in advance of course.

Good questions with their answers could then be published on here and other sites (Venkyout).

We may be looking for yes/no answers, does the club intend to the sell the ground, does the club plan to close the Riverside stand. Anything like what is the transfer budget for this season or what is the ambition of the club will be batted away in no time. I know they would just say 'we have no plans a present blablabla' so we have to be smart with follow ups.

Lets be as smart as we can be with questions (which may mean not using mine!)

[Jock]

Anyone who isn't a Ewood Blues super duper fan.

Every time Terry gets mentioned I think of the Viz cartoon.

[J*B]

Vinjay

Chaddy

ABBEY

Parson

Mullan

With the top 3 being my recommended perminants.

[Mike E]

Is there an echo?

[J*B]

In all seriousness:

Kamy

Glenn

Madon

Majiball

ABBEY

"We have been elected to speak on behalf of the visitors of BRFCS, the largest Blackburn rovers fans forum. Our members have decided a vote of no confidence in the people sat around the table - we have nothing more to add."

[J*B]

Yep - that's better. No voting system needed.

[Stuart]

I wasn't going to comment, because I'm not able to volunteer myself, but I'm going to be controversial here.

I don't think Glen should attend. Not as a BRFCS representative anyway.

My reasoning being that the club need to hear the frustrations and concerns from new voices. It could be easy to dismiss as a one-man crusade or, "it's just that rabble-rouser Glen Mullan again".

He absolutely has my support as somebody who should be involved with the WAR campaign and should have a seat at the table, I just think we need to show the club that there are others who independently share his concerns.

That said, I think Kamy, SteB and Glen would do a great job if that was the posse.

[Neal]

I'm with Gav, @#/? em off... First bullet point clearly states that they're being forced to do it due to new rules, they dont want to.

I'm not sure what these miraculous words are that could be said in a meeting with a bunch of people who have no power.

The time for talking has way passed I'd deliver a statement in person but if people insist on attending the only question worth asking is "are they now actively looking to sell?" because if they're not we'll know how much harder we're going to have to work to force them out. Also reading out a letter agreed to by us stating that we're not interested in dialogue and that we just want them to leave.

[ABBEY]

Whoever goes one needs to give the no confidence and anyone else should go in with a gag saying VENKYS out and turn their backs on them

[CAPT KAYOS]

I just can't believe some responses on here about attending - feels like what has bee said over the last two weeks never existed ( or the last 6 years)

Has to be a full out boycott with a statement of no confidence and on the fans terms and neutral ground if possible if needs to be a meeting- as I have stated before it's the one legal chance to get questions to be directed towards the club about what is going on and drag the FA in at the same time.

As Neal states - this is a forced directive and they would not do it otherwise - this is empowerment for us the fans to seize the chance to get some control of the whole mess

[ad0102]

My prediction is the meeting won't take place, late cancellation!

[47er]

Well Cresendo are still involved allegedly and they are based in Brunei and they have links with the old Kentaro mob (Zurich) & involved a guy who was from Italy I think.

Huber was the Zurich guy?

That's exactly what they'd want us to do. Just send the people who would make it as difficult as possible for whoever turns up.

[CAPT KAYOS]

How can we make it difficult eddy as you know full well how previous similar 'meetings' have been conducted, it will be scripted and channelled to their benefit - and any ' interuption' is more than likely to end in ejection?

[philipl]

I would advocate going prepared with some Paxman-esque questions...

Watching the squirming and evasion would make up for lack of entertainment on the football pitch.

[MGAndy]

Glen

Madon

Kamy

AndyNeil

Ste B

[K-Hod]

As much as I put myself forward for this, initially, I do wonder what would come out of this bar lip service from the club.

Even if (and that's a giant if) any of the Rao family were there, they'd tell us exactly what we want to hear, much like they did in India, then not deliver on anything they said.

[davulsukur]

Glen

Madon

Kamy

AndyNeil

Ste B

I'd second that

[rovers11]

Whoever goes to the meeting must have one item on the agenda: we want to speak to the owners. The meeting shouldn't be brought to a close until it's on record that the board will arrange for this to happen.

The board have as little power in the decision making at Rovers as you or I, they just follow instructions from India.
