Everton too apparently, but £6m is being banded about.

It’s probably not an unpopular opinion. In normal circumstances that would be good business and let’s face it, he has served Rovers well.

We have the word should in there again. Waggott wants to believe all is fine, as a precedent had been set, but has now been taken aback with the adjournments. Giving him the benefit of the doubt, perhaps he actually believed that.

I bet the interest rate, will be eye watering, so unlikely to be friends.

That's the Crossbaron bridging loan I take it? What a mess.

That's a good point on the creditors, as there are cryptic messages being sent for sure.

Exactly, hence my post about him needing to communicate. Whether it is his role or not, there is no point in saying what he did and then not following it through.

Hi Josh, It is the no objection certificate (NOC) bit that you are missing. Simply sending funds and depositing the same amount, is not an option. The ED objected to the funds being sent last year and the compromised was the bond AND a no objection certificate issued by the ED. Without that as well the cannot send funds.

Given Gestedes comments this very week, about communication, surely not. He can’t spout what he has and then go completely dumb.

The power almost certainly rests with Suhail, who just hides in a cowardly manner and lets Waggott front it up. Gestede with Zero experience and so far as I know, no actual qualifications, will step into the firing line, as the mouthpiece for Suhail. Its highly likely that things are going to be even more turbulent this season, than any previous ones, so could be a very convenient time for Waggott to back down.

Maybe for starters, he could explain why the club are peddling the nonsense about the court hearing and explain properly, how important to the future of BRFC this really is.

One other thing to add to the my post above. Given the requirement for the no objection certificate, to be issued by ED before funds can be sent, the miss conception that Venky’s can send funds right now, so long as they pay the equivalent amount into a bond, is also incorrect.

This says in no uncertain terms, that the statement made by Waggott “The owners can fund the club with no impediment”. is a total bare faced lie. I know some on here have failed to accept this and I personally had one particular poster, ask if I was accusing Waggott of being a liar. I answered that question and will state it again, yes he is. As we now know, the club are now using the press, to put it out there that we are skint, yet were masking things, by issuing statements like, we have requested funds and Pasha has gone over to India, to discuss budgets. In reality, the fans deserve better and instead of issuing miss leading statements, they need to let the fans know, how important the court hearing is, but instead of doing that, they leave many dangling and hoping we can manage to scrape together a down payment on a £500k signing, which in itself tells a story. The fans are now waking up and the owners deserve to be hauled over the coals big time. I hope by the time the court date comes around on 20/08/24 the likes of Elliott Jackson and Radio Lancs at least acknowledge how important it is and offer some sort of coverage of the outcome. There will be no more adjournments and there will be facts on the table, showing the judge, some of the indiscretions that have finally led to this and put the club’s future at risk. Finally for Waggot to state this court hearing has nothing to do with the club, beggars belief.

Are they desperate enough to pay us to take one, by any chance?

I agree. He is a propaganda machine for Waggott, hence his reluctance for the interview.

I can't expand on what I have said for now, but maybe after the court hearing, I can.

Yes, I have listened to it, as well as everything else that has been said too. My opinion is and always has been that there will be no funding after the court case, either due to them being banned, or due to the current restrictions continuing, which as we have seen has meant, no money sent, since November. Do you think we are going to be just fine after the hearing, or do you have any worries?

Unlikely, but we need to rise up as one now and let these people know how we feel. Enough is enough.

Just another bag of wind, who will be gone by this time next year.

Go for it buddy. There is a real groundswell here and the anger underneath the surface is beginning to rise.

Al last, I think the vast majority on here are now accepting that no funds are coming, despite the bluster and waffle, transfers in are either very unlikely or will only be based on a small percentage of what we bring in first. Which ever way is has been dressed up, it was known in the corridors of Ewood all along, but yet again, the fans were strung along and left hoping, the club was still viable. We can only hope that the court hearing does put the final nail in and they admit defeat and either sell or put the club into administration.

It crossed my mind this morning. I have seen him as a yes man so far, but he seems to be saying a few things and certainly sending hints out, that decent signings are a must.

It is a great investment that they are protecting and stating as fact in their reasons for requesting their funds. Those two bond payments look like they are seriously at risk to me.

Cheers Josh.

I do believe getting Pasha to attend one of the meetings, could help and I know there have been several attempts at doing so, but he conveniently seems to have avoided every one so far. I believe there is some sort of a promise in place, that he will attend a future meeting, but don't hold your breath.
