144 Years

[Alejandro Tapia]

144 years a go the most beautiful football team...as a forgein supporter has to be impossible to say something that you doesn't know yet about our team but let me try...

144 years of a team that always has the special task to not only plays football but do it well thinking on people ho pays the ticket 

144 years representing full of proud one of the most beautifull, traditional, and important countys...Lancashire...a place that has been forgotten like almoust the north a place that has much more to offer that people even imagine and Rovers always will represent the North.

A team that changed my life in any aspects... thru football I knew and fell in love of England and your  culture and values... a contry that now i respect and love just like mine.

144 years of glory and a present that yes wpuld be a shadow on our history but pals Blackburn Rovers has survived it doesen't matter why...since I'm a Rovers l hear a lot people sayung that we are lost that we are doomed etc...the only true is that we still here Why? Because of you and me becausewe know that to be a supporter it's not about trophys is not about economic success...Blackburn Rovers is about to pasion is about to love and defend your ground...

144 and I don't have nothing more to say but  cheers to everybody ho supports my Blackburn it doesen't matter where.

6 years from now at this rate we'll be more than a quarter of a billion in debt.

Seven years of abject grief but the two most recent years as model overseas owners.

Philip, Apart from providing cash ( which increases the debt ) what other actions make them model owners ?

They don't attend matches. 

They don't communicate with the fans. 

They waste the manager's time by making him fly to India mid-season.

They don't seem to show any interest at all.

Seriously, why do you think they are now model owners ?

And.......

Decision making appears damagingly slow.

The Ewood executives appear to have little if any power.

What was the turning point two years ago?

Model owners/current club infrastructure: discuss ....

Just to update your Rovers knowledge, our first match was a 1-1 draw against Church (a part now of Hyndburn - Accrington) on the 11th December 1875. I presume it was quite friendly. Parsonblue will let us know! ?

Yes Alejandro. We support a fabulous football club with a long and illustrious history, an iconic and beautiful kit and a record of achievement unsurpassed by any town of similar size. Present difficulties should not be a reason to deter you or any other fans from celebrating and supporting the Rovers. We have a history of punching above our weight, overcoming obstacles and representing with honour a Northern town itself characterised by the honest endeavour of straightforward folk. Be proud.

Lest we forget. A very moving BBC 1 show by Gary Lineker about his grandad's time in Italy tonight. I don't seem to have such history in my family. All weavers from Ossy! But a time to remember very dark times. And whilst we have had an approaching ninth anniversary of idiot rule, it's about time the Loons properly respected our club.

My guess is it is something to do with the club being 150 years old in 6 years time.
