  1. Insulting to genuine supporters, frankly. The brass neck on this guy. You were here for a cup of tea and left as soon as you could mate. Your goals won us nothing other than more mid-table mediocrity. You aren't a club legend nor do you have any reason to "be a fan" of the club, considering how quick you were to leave the first time around. The only reason you're here now is because no other club at this level is shambolic enough to give a total no-mark like you such a lofty position. As far as I'm concerned you care about career advancement, nothing else, and for the record that's fine. I don't expect employees to have the same loyalty fans have - but nor do I want or need employees claiming equal passion as genuine fans when it's obviously not true.
  2. It's fine for you to have that stance, but it also means logically you'd have to accept a player being written off in the same time frame. You can't say it's ok to make a positive judgement in such a short time, but not a negative one.
  3. I found the response to question about Venky's potentially selling quite interesting. It was not the usual defiant 'no'.
  4. What a weird, strangely creepy video. Is it necessary for the Venky's logo to be in the top corner? Why are the three of them sat across from the camera like the viewer is attending a virtual job interview or interrogation? Waggott giving the old "I'm not angry, just disappointed" parent routine is ridiculously dumb. Almost everything he said was vapid nonsense and ironically destroyed his repeated claim that open dialogue with him is worthwhile. Suhail and Rudy, another two who appear to be masters of talking a lot whilst saying nothing. They had plenty of time to prepare for this. It's either contempt or incompetence that leads to these pointless answers to mostly softball questions.
  5. WATR/The Trust already called for Venky's to leave in their previous statement, so they seem to be broadly aligned with the general sentiment of the recent coalition of groups. It would be helpful for them to explain why they opted against being a part of the latest call to action, as otherwise it just allows speculation to grow. This could be harmful to WATR long-term if people begin withdrawing donations under assumptions that may not be true. I'd urge them to get their view of current events out there sooner rather than later. Transparency is always important, but even more so in the current climate.
  6. 51, which was (and remains) a very high total to be relegated with. 53 points will almost certainly be enough, but we could nonetheless end up in a pretty pathetic position come the end of the season if things continue as they are. Imagine if we lost all of our remaining matches, lol. Would surely be a contender for the worst start to a managerial reign ever.
  7. They'll already claim they're 'investing' in keeping the lights on (despite that recently being funded by player sales). The message just has to be fuck off. They are not worthy custodians of this club - never have been and never will be. It's been 15 years, they've had their chance.
  8. He's doing a fine job of making the real culprits look like absolute idiots. Arguably better for it to be like this than middling results which sees us miss out by a few points, giving people false hope that next season could be decent.
  9. From a protest and general fan unrest perspective, poor results are indeed crucial fuel to the fire. We've seen in the past it only takes one or two decent results for the majority to settle down - especially if we still mathematically have something to play for. A win today would have kept us within 2 points of the playoffs, and you just know the majority opinion would have swung to "we still have a chance here, protests = negativity, get behind the lads ffs". Seen it time and time again since Venky's arrived (despite getting behind the lads (ffs) never actually achieving anything, whether it comes to playoffs or escaping relegation). The only way to continue negative sentiment against the owners and the hierarchy is for results to continue going south.
  10. Was probably rushing down there to get a letter drafted and printed out for everyone to take home with them. Allez Les Bleus.
  11. A spectacularly bad beginning - contextually must be one of the worst in recent history across all divisions, factoring in our position when he arrived and the results since. It's not like he was parachuted into a team in the relegation zone. We were 5th and had won two of the last three matches before he arrived, lol. It was a matter of time until Waggott & Suhail's luck ran out when it came to appointing managers. They had a ridiculously fortunate streak with TM/JDT/Eustace, but that luck has well and truly run out now.
  12. Big Val and the players continue to apply pressure to the owners and upper management by repeatedly putting in the most turgid performances imaginable. Cheers lads.
  13. Honestly, based on our history over the past five years or so, I'd have fully believed it.
  14. We'd be going down on about 5 points if Ismael had started the season with us. Still, we aren't getting playoffs at this point anyway, so bad results just keep the pressure rising.
  15. A statement so pointless that it should literally have just read "As part of their professional duties and commitments to the club, Blackburn Rovers’ senior leadership group will continue to attend games". Everything else is just waffle and bullshit. I'm sure the groups involved fully expected this response, so hopefully it just means phase two, whatever that is, proceeds immediately.
