I completely understand why you would think this Ian, but I do think you might be reading too much into what is essentially a face-saving statement. 6 Quote

Not necessarily, having experience in this field that statement is used regularly, sometimes it can be used as a face saving statement and sometimes it can be that they will go away and tweak it to try again in the future. Hopefully it is the former. Edited April 9, 2021 by MarkBRFC 2 Quote
LDRover Posted April 9, 2021 Posted April 9, 2021 (edited) Well done to the residents, the letter writers and the general opposers of the scheme. However, isn't it unbelievable that the statement tries to paint the picture that this whole thing was designed to strengthen the club? More utter bilge for the FB illuminati to pull themselves daft over. Edited April 9, 2021 by LDRover 3 Quote
Backroom DE. Posted April 9, 2021 Backroom Posted April 9, 2021 Good news. Let's hope it's soon followed up with the sacking/resignation of Waggott, Mowbray and Venus. 9 Quote

Possibly, certainly something to be cognisant of if this shower remain in situ. But the fact it’s been withdrawn as quickly as it was proposed will hopefully mean there’s more removals to come.

Popular Post arbitro Posted April 9, 2021 Popular Post Posted April 9, 2021 It's reassuring to know we still have fans who care and put some pressure on Waggott and Co in various ways. Even a post on this message board will have helped so nobody should underestimate their involvement. Special appreciation to Revidgeblue for his forensic work in putting the excellent letter together. I also know others have been active in the background so thanks to you also.

SIMON GARNERS 194 Posted April 9, 2021 Posted April 9, 2021 Looking at other options? A victory for all involved. Quote

I actually translated that as "we got busted & then got our pants pulled down when someone looked into the details" As others have said, well done to all who put in a lot of hard work. 👋 4 Quote

You should pour yourself a glass of something nice Simon. You should also never have to buy a drink at Ewood ever again. Well done mate! 9 Quote
Waggy76 Posted April 9, 2021 Posted April 9, 2021 Hopefully this will see the removal from office of the Coventrio !!! 2 Quote

But the fact it’s been withdrawn as quickly as it was proposed will hopefully mean there’s more removals to come. Yes hopefully. This must be the most enormous embarrassment for Waggott. Given that so much store was set by not providing plans of any alleged new training facility, because it was supposedly too expensive, how much money must we have wasted progressing the scheme this far only to bin it? Plus Waggott has needlessly alienated the local residents near Brockhall who previously were quite happy with the relationship between themselves and the Club. A trio of sackings to follow and this would be a fantastic weekend regardless of the result tomorrow. 20 Quote

Popular Post arbitro Posted April 9, 2021 Popular Post Posted April 9, 2021 Although it's time to rejoice I can't help myself dislike Waggott even more than before. For the disdain and disrespect he showed Rovers he shouldn't be anywhere near our great club. From the outset this has been so poorly handled it's like a Brian Rix farce. Awfully worded announcements, ill conceived ideas and factually incorrect statements have shown him up for what he is. Now do the honourable thing Swag and leave our club forever. 15 Quote
