  1. I would prefer a reliable source before I get my hopes up.
  2. Not sure the rumours about Pasha doing radio today are going to materialise. I don't think he is currently in the UK and even if he was, he hasn't got the bottle to do radio. It's likely to be Waggott.
  3. Is everyone ready for tomorrow's non-event ? Or will it be different this time ? Unlike every other year, Rovers have published their accounts early. Also unlike every other year, the accounts show a profit. Maybe they will be presenting these to the court as evidence - "We no longer need to send funds to the UK. Can we have our seized assets back please ?"
  4. I've been NAPM since Coyle was appointed. I'll be first in the queue for a season ticket once Venky's leave - whatever league we are in.
  5. They have not put £20 million into the club this year - in fact they have contributed £0 since November 2023. The club is only a black hole because of the way they run it. Investment of, maybe £10 million on players in January may have turned into into a gold mine ( if promoted ). You are right about protests - they won't care but I think they will turn up the heat on Suhail. What they do care about cashflow. They were furious with Waggott and Fraser Reid about the income from season tickets this season - hence, Suhail and Safir are now responsible for revenue from STs. Hit them in the pocket - don't but season tickets or shirts over the summer and they will definitely care about that. Our actions can have an affect.
  6. The true Blackburn Rovers is only 135 years old. I refuse to recognise the last 15 years spent under Venky occupation.
  7. I haven't read any of this thread and I think discussing results or managers or playoffs is totally irrelevant. Everyone has the chance to show their disapproval by not buying season tickets for next season and then boycotting all matches next season until the owners leave. The ball is in our court. We have to do something NOW! BOYCOTT AND RECLAIM THE ROVERS
  8. I can safely say this is not the case. I'm not sure where your information came from. In the past WATR have offered season ticket ideas that they believe would be of benefit to fans. In no way was it aimed at increasing club revenue. Those ideas have been in the public domain for a long time. Apart from some WATR reps attending a meeting about the 150th anniversary ( a fairly general meeting with BandD council and other groups ), there has been no contact from the club since the end of January when WATR issued their statement asking the owners to sell the club. WATR are very much on the offensive I can assure you.
  9. I think this is our 150th season. The Centenary was celebrated in 74/75. The horrible reality is that Venky's have stained 10% of our history already
  10. The owners were very disappointed with Season ticket income for this season. It is one thing they definitely keep an eye on and expect to it increase each year. Waggott and Fraser Reid where responsible for ST sales at that time. Reid is no longer at the club and Pasha has been put in charge of all financial issues regarding club income. This was when his title was changed to COO. Waggott is concentrating on 'other things'. Pasha and Safir are now in charge of season ticket sales. Whatever policy they come up with, the owners will be demanding a much better return than last time around. Pasha will be feeling the pressure from Pune. If everyone holds off on buying a season ticket until the last minute ( if at all ) it will really get him rattled.
  11. I am slightly more hopeful that Venky's may be tempted to sell in the not too distant future. They have obviously decided not to put any money in if they can possibly avoid it. The club is being run on a self funding basis at the moment. I am hoping ( and praying ) that when that is no longer possible and we need £20 million per year investment again then they will say enough is enough - especially if they have to match the funding with the same amount as a bond in India. That will be a big decision for them. We can try and expedite the process by holding off on buying season tickets to reduce income over the summer. Maybe our 150th birthday can be liberation day too.
  12. You didn't say that at all. You were saying they could send funds way before that.
  13. If we can get half the fanbase to take some action that would be a good start.
  14. I informed you last year that 'something happened in March 2024' which changed the situation - this was after I spoke with Pasha and he gave me this information. You questioned this at the time. Before March, they COULD NOT send funds without going to court. After March they could send funds as long as they agreed to certian conditions ( a bond or whatever ). Before March Myself, Lrac and others maintained that they couldn't send funds without going to court - you always argued against this. As can be seen from the Financial report on the other thread, a No Objection Certificate was issued in March 2024. That is when things changed.
