Can we get some perspective please, where would we be without the Venkys?! They pay all the bills.  You can't honestly expect us to compete with the likes of ..

Crystal palace? 

 

Surely you don't can't expect a club like Blackburn to compete with an owner like ...

Sheffield Wednesday??

I can almost guarantee the Wharton deal was completed at the latest yesterday and there is an agreement in place to not announce it until late today

Don't usually watch anything from this channel, find it hard to stomach and sensationalist, but he's on the money here, I think we all feel his rage:

We we don’t deserve it, and Venkys couldn’t cared less, but we’re the ones that shoulder it.

The mid flight thing doesn't really add up, considering it's usually pretty difficult to contact people mid flight.

The only thing effecting your ability to be contacted mid-flight, is how important you are.

Last year O'Brien, this year Maguire, next year, who knows?

and yet there are Rovers supporters popping up on my 'X'  feed making excuses and trying to normalise it.

[CambridgeRover]

Venkys out!!! Venkys out!!!!

[rob_of_the_rovers]

Imagine how much Waggot shit himself when he realised that the lad was on his way after faking interest to make it look like the club are trying to sign players

[Displaced Rover]

This club continues to explore new depths of ineptitude. It’s genuinely embarrassing to support Rovers at this stage.

What is the point? We’re just a husk that simply “exists” now. Until they fuck off through a sale (not going to happen) or forced into administration (hopefully one day) we’re just in a managed decline to the depths of the football league, with ever smaller crowds (being fleeced for 400 quid a season), rattling around in a decaying 30k stadium. Tragic doesn’t even cover it.

Fantastic stuff from the Orlando account. The ONLY positive from this mess is that it will hopefully shine a light on these clowns and their running of the club.

It is this kind of spotlight and attention shown by the Orlando account, that we need in order to open a few more eyes.

Anyone who supports these owners in any way is a traitor to the club.

Nah nobody will notice. They never do. Most people don't even know venkys still own us. This won't register on their radar.

Over the last few years, my passion for Rovers has waned. Three years ago, I stopped my season ticket when my daughter was born and I haven’t missed going to Ewood since. With each passing year/window I feel the wave of apathy growing. I will be honest and say, I hate Venky’s but I don’t care about it all anymore. 
They have ruined the passion for me. 
 

VENKYS OUT

"Insiders" trying to shift the blame on to the player via Nixon. Funny, that. The situation is certainly a farce, but the "insiders" feeding him this shit are just as big a farce. That's the PG way of describing them. I have other words more fitting for them.

Within the last few hours we've had the following from two journalists on McGuire:

Jackson - "It was always going to be a complicated deal"

Nixon - "He was told not to travel because of doubts over the Rovers switch".

Both of those quotes are helping to lay the blame on the player and taking the heat off the club.

Which is why I don't believe them. Bollocks to the party line propaganda.

Next one is his girlfriend wanted to live in Sheffield rather than Blackburn

That one's a popular option from the book of excuses, blame the player or his Mrs for wanting to live somewhere else and we are powerless.

Or they believe the lazy, ignorant soundbites of commentators when we are on live tv, eg "Venkys are pumping £x million into the club every year".

Yes. We’re a fucking shambles, always have been and always will be under these owners and CEO. I remortgaged yesterday and I’ll put the fucking lot on it being our fault entirely without blinking an eye.

If any one fancies losing their mind, go look at the comments on the live transfer deadline page on the Lancashire telegraph. 

Everyone keeps saying we can only spend when we get money in. They dont have enough brain cells to work out that if that is the case, why are we selling him on the last day of the window???
