Whats the betting that Whartons move to Palace wont get confirmed until late in the day meaning that tbe cash injection to strengthen will dissapear and then in tbe Summer the money wont be there to spend as running costs of club have spiralled

Has it been discounted that shef weds just came in with a late bid that matched ours and he sensibly chose them over our shower of shit

Wednesday are as much a basket case as we are, and, amazingly, even more likely to get relegated.

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???

It's one of the most frustrating things about it. A lot of our fans are like the living dead.

And people will still buy season tickets in the summer.

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. 

Any decent rates about?

I'm stuck on variable and too scared to fix.

THIS!!!!!

This is the best insight to the last 14 years i have seen.

Concisely explaining the farcical nature of how the club has been run in a single breath.

This needs to trend by any means necessary!

Well done to the Orlando acount doing more to highlight this circus in one set of tweets than the entire British press (and our local rags) have done in over 10 years.

5 years 4.49%. Best we could get but still a huge increase from the 1.95 we where at from 2 years ago.

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:

I've watched bits of his videos a handful of times...he's usually quite chirpy and I've never seen him swear before.

I feel very angry and frustrated. Its nice that this website exists, where people who feel the same can console each other. Thanks to the guys who run it, you do a great job. So that's my tiny silver lining.

I love this club, I hate what this club has become and I weep for the future of the club. Strangley the McGuire fiasco has upset more than any loss in our current poor league form. Logically I know I should give up on the club but in my heart I know I never will, I must have some self destructive tendencies or maybe I'm just an addict.

Pasha out, waggott out and most Importantly Venkys out.

Thousands of people put aside their opposition to Venky's to follow the club they love.  It is part of their weekly life ritual, which has often gone on for decades, in my case passed down the family for over a hundred years.

If (when) that happens, we really need JDT and Broughton to walk. And talk.

Their integrity is at stake here too.

That's fair enough, still doesn't mean he has to respect that decision though.

If my family pet had an incurable disease that was killing it slowly week on week to the point it cant even eat/move anymore, im not going to keep the poor thing in pain out of some form of "well, I'll miss him if he aint there lying on the floor in the morning when I wake up" ritual. Sometimes the hardest thing to do is the right thing...

Just look at this reply. What percentage of our fan base live under a rock?

This Orlando site getting well deserved props for highlighting things. Far too often when a Rovers supporter does it they are rounded on and savaged by our own fan base.

I can’t believe any of this is news to anyone, and I’m equally baffled by the fact that people seem surprised at these recent developments.

I feel similar regarding the transfer disasters feeling worse than losing matches. We've all seen Rovers lose plenty of times and it never feels good...but its part of the sport.

What we are seeing off the pitch is a level of incompetence that makes me feel embarrassed to be associated with the club. The idea of something you love so much being an absolute laughing stock of its industry is quite frankly upsetting.

I don't care if we're Premier League or League Two, all I want is a club that's run solidly by honest people who care. It's the very least that any fanbase of any football club deserves.

Support the club whatever happens or doesn’t, not supporting the owners, management etc, difficult for some to comprehend. We’ve been in worse positions than now, just hope someone comes in, who knows what they are doing. 
I never thought someone like Jack would come in and change our club and go on to win the premier league.

But not buying a season ticket is not for me, I’ll always get down to Ewood regardless who owns the club, and that’s not being a “ happy clapper”it’s  just what has happened down the line in my family, support the club through thick/ thin….

[ben_the_beast]

It's all gone very quiet. So much for the LTs live deadline day blog. We were being linked with a number of players last night before the inevitable happened. I'm hoping the silence will be broken by 2 or 3 players being announced all at the same time. 

But in reality we all know this is an absolute shit show, and we're going to end up with a freebie and a loan, no money spent and Adam holding up a Palace shirt.

I have been going to the Rovers since 1969. I respected the faithful few. I don't have to respect anyone, if I don't want to.

You can see it now. Wednesday sign McGuire, he tears it up and saves them from relegation at our expense

I fucking hope he does too. It's the least we deserve. I'll take relegation, administration. Just get rid of these cunts.
