    Some side that for the second tier, no wonder it went on to win a cup.

    Swag was a piss poor CEO, however he was a canny fecker who’d been around the game a long time and knew how to manage ‘stakeholders’. Look at the state of it now, Gest-hail don’t even have the basics. It ‘can’t can always get worse’ here.

    Just think back to the 125, doesn’t remotely feel like the same football club.
  4. Mattyblue
    Can't afford to have Sky Sports on in Blues Bar but happy to turn down potentially thousands of ticket sales. Make it make sense 🤷‍♂️

    ‘Overwhelmingly united’… hmm, not sure about that.
  6. Mattyblue
    Like I said I don’t remember that, but my point was more the atmosphere, I don’t recall a crowd being like that against a manager throughout a game for a long time, even when we scored.
  7. Mattyblue
    Yes it is ironic that those that call us ‘negative’ are the ones with such a negative view of Blackburn Rovers and what it could be.
  8. Mattyblue
    Still a very sizeable number within Ewood too of that mindset, don’t let the chants fool anybody.
  9. Mattyblue
    Not sure about that, ‘sort it out’ definitely, but not ‘sacked in the morning’. But regardless, long time since a manager has seen Ewood turn.

    ‘But, but crowds’’ ‘Bury’, ‘20 million a year!’

    Main reason being we’ve sold fewer STs to start with, thousands of the Holders we have left aren’t bothering and we are selling fewer walk-ons due to poor results and expensive pricing… ergo it leads to the depressing sight that was the Blackburn End on Saturday (a lower tier of which, by the way, that had been pretty full for a good number of years pre this season).
  12. Mattyblue
    Then why hasn’t it happened? Campaigning journalism was bread and butter to local papers for decades, not any more - they get clicks or they die and the Editor/publisher obviously doesn’t want to take the financial risk that having no access to the club long term would bring.
  13. Mattyblue
    Unfortunately the local press is now on life support and the football club of their patch is one of the only drivers of clicks (and ergo advertising income) left, so no chance they’ll go after the regime.
  14. Mattyblue
    Obviously means nothing here but pretty sure that’s the first time I’ve heard an explicit chant for a manager sacking from a Rovers crowd for nearly 9 years.

    You will never convince that sizeable percentage of the fanbase, there’s always a reason why we can’t compare and it’s Venky’s or liquidation. This time it’s because Sheff Wed ‘have a much bigger fanbase’. ‘’We’ll be a Bury’… yes, we certainly will be when that’s who we are playing, still under this regime, in five/six years time.
