All going through Brittain today, created two superb chances. -

It’s literally rust. No pride in the ground or their own name.

Gutted for Rose, only because he is my favourite golfer, and what a superb round he put together today. But it is SO cool for Europe to have it’s first Grand Slam Champion. Gene Sarazen, Ben Hogan, Gary Player, Jack Nicklaus, Tiger Woods… Arise Sir Rory of McIlroy!

@Herbie6590 ?

Genuinely when they were so excited about the early announcement, I thought they’d finally listened and gone for ‘£150 all over the ground to celebrate 150 years of Rovers’. Nope.

Exactly. It wasn’t a positive having to hear Steve K***’s bullshit every other fucking day. On the other hand, while it was rarely through official club channels, I quite enjoyed hearing Broughton speak. Usually on some podcast or other.

Venky’s & Waggott Out Protest Ideas

Going back even further, if any reputable manager had the squad that Bowyer and his dad managed to put together, we would’ve gone up. 40+ goals between Rhodes and Gestede (alongside Conway, Marshall, Cairney, King) and we managed eighth. -

I suggest backing the manager with credible signings in January instead of driving them out. Run the club properly, in other words. Or, hand it over by sale or by administration to someone else to have a go. We have EVERYTHING to make this club a success and only incompetents or Burnley fans would have failed to get us into at least multiple playoffs since 2013. -
Venky’s & Waggott Out Protest Ideas
Mike E replied to DuffsLeftPeg's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
I may be right or wrong, but I’d put forward a couple of reasons: 1. It’s an about turn from the critical friend stance, so would likely require a mandate from their membership. 2. The Trust has lots of ties to the Football Governance Bill (Tracey Crouch even used some prose directly lifted from submissions by Trust members), and it would be professionally difficult to simultaneously be in prime position to form a shadow board AND adversarial towards the club regardless of anyone’s personal feelings. 3. There are rules and regulations that govern what WATR is actually allowed to do (and crucially HOW to do it) due to their specific status as a company/charity (I’m not knowledgeable enough on the specifics). Other groups do not have the above to contend with and are essentially fan groups. If there were one group I would understand not explicitly breaking with the club JUST NOW (I’m certain there are straws that would shatter this camels multiple herniated discs), it is WATR. I would hazard a guess that their AGM (can’t be far off now? June ish?) will be something for people to look out for if there is any stance change. -

Have WATR actually been invited to join up? Has someone from your side reached out? -

Yeah told them he’d see them in court about 10 years ago… -

I’m sick of fucking ‘rebuilding’, we’ve been doing that since League One. Let’s ACTUALLY FUCKING BUILD instead of redoing the foundations and adding more cracks every time. -

Before the club puts out any statement about rounding on the young lads, we’ve been nothing but supportive. -

Reminds me of a joke: Blackburn Rovers were reported to be playing football with a hedgehog. The hedgehog won 2-0. -

Went to get my pie when they scored. Already sat back down. Ewood is fucking empty. -

There’s no spark to rally the crowd either against Venkys or to support the team. We really are ‘Deadwood’ at the moment. At least I can wait til half time to go and queue for my pie.
