Congratulations, you are no longer funding that circus.

As a Birmingham fan I would like to say that I am sorry for your relegation. We know too well how a bad owner can completely destroy a club.

I am confident you will be back up straight away. You took it down to the wire and didnt do much for my pulse!!

A good promotion season can help rebuild a club and bring it back together.

All the best

Sadly your confidence is based on ignorance of what our owners are capable of.

[Bucksrover]

Going to get one. Didn't last season and missed it.

 

[Rover_Shaun]

Like it or not but every penny spent is a thumbs up to the owners. A vote that you condone the "temporary" situation the club finds itself in.

At this stage, I very much doubt that the owners get any feeling of a thumbs up from the fans.

Unless they subscribe the the LT comments section that is.

Our enemy is not fans who support the club, nor fans who boycott, our enemy is that we won't unite against the tyrants we all find ourselves affected by.

Why sugar coat it? Shaun has made the same post three times tonight in a cathartic swipe at people who his viewpoint doesn't tally with.

Might make him feel better but I can't describe what it does to me without breaking several posting guidelines

[Rover_Shaun]

It's the truth. As far as they see it there are 9k people who agree with them on this temporary setback. When a business treats you with utter utter uttet contempt you don't shrug your shoulder,keep on buying their product and say "meh, cest la vie"

Sod the sugar coating or the had wringing. There is only one logical action for those who have had enough and it sure as hell isn't buying tickets. We are well beyond that being remotely logical. But hey ho, you carry on swearing at yourself.

Maybe its because I see it from an invasion of the bodysnatchers angle. It may look like Blackburn Rovers........

Because I understand his rationale but don't agree with his approach.

I'm getting past angry now. Just a feeling of resignation and a warped sense of intrigue about what the next move might be.

Feels a bit like being chained to a front row seat at an accident black spot and not being allowed to look away.

Being a football supporter has nothing to do with logic. If it did, we would all be United, Chelsea or Barcelona or Madrid fans.

And if only I could find some catharsis from what has been a horrendous few weeks in my life which has only served to twist my bitterness even further...........make it stop

I can only convey my feelings properly with this image

Can't compare the club to any other product. You know that, it's an ancient discussion. You know people can respect your decision to walk, without question in the most part - though boycotting under the pretense of "ridding us of the scum" holds about as much water as your suggestion that anyone still left attending is "giving thumbs up". I may have a few questions for those who return for cup games with big teams, but in the main, how can anyone be blamed for not being able to face the wanton destruction?

Show some bloody respect for the people that still want to devote time to what's left of the club. The major damage was done, it had nothing to do with the fans and all this finger pointing seeks to do is wind others up. 

[gumboots]

Imagine being me then. The Boro got relegated tonight too. Whildt theyre not a basket case of a club its a second depressing relegation in 2 days

See imagine you feel that, and then you are reading that YOU are supporting it. 

[Rover_Shaun]

What can be gained by walking away?

What can be gained from staying?

Nothing would be the answer if we had collectively done the former properly. 22-25k regularly turned up but it made no difference (under Kean). What harm can it make trying to get as near to zero as we can? We are heading to League 2 anyway.

Anyway. I shouldn't have poked old wounds so its bed time

No point looking backwards or pointing fingers going forward. Don't have any answers to your questions but that's the point, nobody really knows what difference it makes. When the owners are so isolated from the fans perspective, it's difficult to see a way to get a message through.

[Mike Graham]

I will get an 'Away Season Ticket' if they are available.

Does this count?  

[1864roverite]

The problem is "this setback" wont do anything to instil any confidence to purchase a season ticket. They may be hurt but please venkyscum do not come out and spout diatribe to the supporters that you have embarrassed, misunderstood, lied to, ignored, defecated on, blamed etc etc. YOU are to blame, you limp wristed Indian chicken FOKKERS, bling encrusted cash rich scrotes, the lot of you.

You have destroyed this club, taken it to the precipice of annihilation YET you claim YOU are hurt by this setback.

 

Do one you utter scum. 

[Mike E]

I'll keep it succinct.

Which of the Rao's cried this weekend? Because my dad bloody did!

I was close to tears at the final whistle too and I couldn't sleep on Sunday night. I would love an owner that cared 10% as much as your Dad.

Stop skirting around the issues 1864 and get to the point please.

[Husky]

With North-West derbies against Fleetwood, Rochdale, Bury, Wigan, Oldham, Bury and potentially Blackpool to look forward to it's sure tempting.

But, NO!

 

[davefarnworth]

I will continue not to go. Tasty derbies in the homeland. I have tasty derbies where I live in football-derelict Bedfordshire. I didn't shed a tear for Venkys Fc when we were relegated again under a dysfunctional ownership. Missed a full season for the first time going back to 1965. Will come back when the chcken chokers and their 'friends' go be it what division (as long ad it's not Darwen's lol). There is lots of support and bodies out there for a proper club. We will all hurt for a while. 

[gazsimm]

No chance I rather use my money on something else then giving it to them in India who have destroyed our club. Once the venkys have gone I will come back

[Skiptonrover]

Yes I will be getting 1 my first ever season ticket after just going to odd games. I've received a email about the price freeze & the prices seem reasonable providing you've got the time to attend all the games which I should have next season.

[Baz]

I'll buy mine, the moment the Rovers website confirms the club has new owners.
