Venky’s v Indian Government (a) - 5/8/25 - Perennially Re-Arranged Challenge Match

[Mattyblue]

Let’s hope there’s some eagle eyes on here the day that drops as the LT obviously won’t want to ‘sensationalise’.

Looks like it's been re-listed to 12th March. 

Due to a "Vigilance Committee meeting" taking place the same day (whatever one of those is).

Don't shoot me for this but as funny and deserved as that was...and i remember thinking this at the time...

 

If that was me who got that reception and hit with that,as long as i could afford too(which it appears they can) i'd make sure the football club loitered around outside the premier league and never returned

From very quick googling it seems a parish council meeting has ruined any hope of a January

Meaning money transfer not approved, yet?? 

Meaning sales needed urgently? (Wharton)

Probably hence Palace getting wind of it and trying to take the piss with a low bid.

What do we do now? I flagged an adjournment up as the worst possible case  scenario yesterday but didnt actually think it would happen.

We're completely snookered. Another example of why this situation is unworkable.

Good spot. At least you've done the LT's work for them and written their latest story!

Can’t help but think we are through the Looking Glass here. This is no way to run a village fete never mind a football club. Farcical isn't the word. 

I wonder just how welcome Crystal Palace cash will be now…

Companies house will be the first alert of it probably because once it's on there you at least know it's true.

The October tranche of funds is not on companies house. Perhaps because they are not creating additional shares with these transfers.

Good to see brfcs doing the work of the local professional journos again…

Rovers bit on today's 'The Price of Football' podcast from 17.15 onwards. 

Think their 'secret Rover' is Waggot by the sounds of the BS being spouted.

[BigUts]

But...he says there is a 26m tax bill outstanding and any delays will be trouble...which has now happened.

How can this just be casually pushed back? Assuming this means we now cannot pay for the day to day running of the club?

Which leaves us with the worst situation where we are selling Wharton to plug the gap.

Get the protests ramped up!

I am sure HMRC will understand.

So no doubt our owners will now sit back and blame anyone but themselves, despite this all being down to their illegal payments, making it necessary for them to go to court to get permission to thrown money away.

I was 95% sure they were covering something up before all this, but my mind is made up now.

Something stinks.

Can't imagine the fate of Blackburn Rovers is much of a priority for the Indian Courts.

Anyone know what a "Vigilance Committee Meeting" is? Be a bit surreal if whatever one of those is ended the Club one year short of its 150th anniversary.

Would you have let an agent run the club and continuously employed Steve Kean despite results and fan opinion massively to the contrary even before the snowball incident. Something tells me their actions at Blackburn Rovers were never shaped by the spherical lump of frosted water which fell upon them.

It probably went straight to paying off the tax bill and borrowings they'd taken out via the other company that owns the training ground.

[tomphil]

If that court date has been put back it's because its been agreed by all party's.

Why rush when you know you can force the club to generate its money via a player sale, this is looking like another stitch up.

 I hope i'm proved wrong.
