Venky’s & Waggott Out Protest Ideas

@glen9mullan Are there any ideas to target the owners via the Indian media?

I imagine some Indian journalists will be wary to target them due to the size of the company and their power.

With the court case at the minute they’re hardly in the good books of the government. We could try and ruffle some feathers with a sustained press attack of the next couple of months.

Lots being discussed and social media being scanned by everyone for consensus, ideas.

Its not an easy thing to unpick all bones especially with lots of groups and individuals.

Each opinion matters, but it does take more time than when it's only one group.

It's good to have this coalition of opinions because we've also got a great blend of skills sets too.

[glen9mullan]

Forgot to mention, the beauty of being a cross section, in particular around groups, is each groups function to their members don't cease. Which allows multiple actions which sit correctly with its members.

Friday will see action 10000% , whilst a campaign has been signed off also which is in final draft after work over the weekend. I personally like the end result, and bar some tweaks will be launched at a set time. Again this time has been carefully co-ordinated for a number of reasons which I will update after the event.

Some hard graft going in behind the scenes , with different people tasked with different things. 

Hopefully people remain open minded, as we are attacking this in a more modern theatre, for maximum impact and message.

No doubt the moles are reading, second guessing, whilst reporting back to those we wish to oust.

As this phase reaches its conclusion my attention is already on with phase 3, and 4.

We are still looking for people willing to do media, podcasts and other forms of interview. So please reach out if you are happy to do some of this #expressyourself

Adam's resigned reality was what stood out to me.

A victory? "Should be, won't be....it ain't happening mate"

There speaks a voice of countless rodeos, decades of witnessing groundhog days, and just knowing what the final outcome will be no matter the hope you go in with.

It's a grim defeatism I recognise too well.

Really? 

Buckley wasn't available and Tronstad just coming back from injury so who else was going to play there. 

Expand  

Yes really and I posted my team at the time. Tronstad was on the bench and came on, so was fit to start, so if not fit enough for the full 90 he could have been taken, off as required. Forshaw is not good enough, simple as that, but cheap and therefore was signed to fill the squad, yet got a few starts, above other players, as you well know, but you won’t accept that, like you won’t accept plenty of other things that smack you right between the eyes. 
If you go back to the early days under Venkys, the same happened then. In fact a fan was texting a certain individual, who in turn, made the substitutions and not the manager. If you look back at that time, even the signing of Jordan Rhodes came about due to a suggestion from a fan and that is 100% accurate.

Of course, you may choose not to believe it, as you have this insane desire to defend the club you love at all costs and still think we will make the play offs, despite almost every one else on here, knowing, we have a dud manager, who will not cut the mustard. You will only accept that, once he has been sacked, at which point you will change your opinion of him, just as you have with the last 2 managers.

That's why it’s important that people stick to the facts. They will try and discredit anyone involved in the protests so it’s vital they don’t have reason to. Tittle-tattle is not required. 

There’s plenty to go on that highlights the incompetence of the gaslighters at Ewood. Their attempts to sign that American striker (McGuire) should have been enough to have the lot of them sacked. The fact they had previous with O’Brien and Brierley….

Some news during the night, being alleged 

Michael Cairney's role will be DOF, hence it's not been stated.

Rudy Gestede will replace CEO Waggott at the end of the season.

Ham has been banned from training ground.

Source of information is usually 100%

Ham?  As in the meat?

Edit - apparently so

New question - Is this something that Gestede has imposed? due to his religion

[chaddyrovers]

Well it's no surprise Waggott is going. The WATR chairman said around 9 months ago about Gestede replacing Waggott in the CEO in times. So it's look like happening now. 

Rovers have done some forward planning and appointed Gestede's replacement as head of football operations. 

Thanks for sharing the info Glen 👏

I just hope Rovers actually proper communicate these and actually do it quick even today or tomorrow. Be pro active and Rovers are too slow or don't reacted quickly to stories or situation

I know that will be bang on though and cheers for posting it.

Forward planning 😂

Great that Waggott will finally be gone but it wont change anything. The issue is Venkys, replacing Waggott with a novice in Gestede wont make much if any difference.

Gestede is poison and has recently told a fan to fuck off at a match.

Bloody hell.

For what it's worth, if Waggott is going of his own accord then things must be even worse behind the scenes than we originally thought.

No way he gives up the most cushiest gig in football.

Tronstad had just come back from injury thst week after 2 months so of course you wouldn't rush him back. Hence why Forshaw played. 

Of course Forshaw was signed as cheap squad player and said at the time. 

Yes we know about what went on in that era and fans suggested players to management. Crazy times and situation. 

If the club needs criticising I will do when appropriate not at the willing or pressure from others. I criticised the ST Prices for next season, was completely against selling the STC and just based on one site. Yes I would be for a new training complex being built if it was improving the facilities and standards but it wasn't and where are you building it. Most areas are taken by house building or businesses building. So we should stay were we are and improve that site and academy site

I am assuming that it is all pork based products, and not specifically ham.

But I did originally spend 5 minutes wondering if Ham was a person on Rovers staff

Or this was plan from the summer why Waggott stayed on for a year and let Gestede get appointed into a different role and bit by bit learning and maybe even doing some of the work would be doing. 

Didn't someone said on here Gestede had an interview plan for Tuesday. Wonder if this was the story and when announcement would be made

[Mattyblue]

Question for you Chaddy - Do you think Rudy Gestede should be Chief Executive of Blackburn Rovers?
