They don’t look like the side that went up last time. Whilst they’re winning 2-0, Luton have been so, so poor.

It really won’t though. If you look at what’s been accumulated in transfers, since the Armstrong sale, and what’s been bought, there must be a significant difference. I’d say around £30-£40 million. Even if Szmodics went for say £10 million, where are you going to find someone who scores 27 goals for that kind of money. #NAPM until Venky’s go!

Any movement on the protest group getting going? -
Venky’s & Waggott Out Protest Ideas
scotchrover replied to DuffsLeftPeg's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
“What’s got better since Venky’s took over?” I had an argument over the weekend about the running of the club, with one bloke who was in full support of them. After trying to deflect away from giving the answer, he finally caved in. That’s a the question that we should asking those who are sat on the fence though. It’s simple and straight to the point. When are we meeting to get this movement up and running? -
Venky’s & Waggott Out Protest Ideas

I’m going to stick my neck out and say the title of this chat needs to be renamed: ‘How to Remove Venky’s and Waggot’. The asset stripping clowns need to be gone. -
Venky’s & Waggott Out Protest Ideas
scotchrover replied to DuffsLeftPeg's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
The time for action is now or never. Having read today’s Lancashire Telegraph article (link below), the money from the Wharton sale is being used to keep the lights on. I highly suspected that, but now that article has confirmed it today. Somebody please take the lead and organise a meeting on Zoom, to coordinate some kind of action with real impact. If it’s not done, we’re going to be sat in this situation for another 12 years, probably in League 2. https://www.lancashiretelegraph.co.uk/sport/24460184.transfers-venkys-blackburn-questions-answered/ -
I renewed my season ticket, at the end very end of the first deadline, on a pay monthly basis. I did so because I wanted the option to change my mind, if Waggot’s (and the lot above’s) piss poor leadership of the club continued. I’ll be blunt- if we don’t spend some of that Wharton money within the 14 day cooling off period, I’ll be knocking it on the head. I’m not paying my hard earned cash to watch us be run into ground by Waggot and the lot above.

2024/25 Season Tickets

Sorry if this has already been said, but what’s the deadline for keeping your seat? I want to see if we sign anyone half decent before parting with my hard earned cash. -
2024/25 Season Tickets
scotchrover replied to TheRevAshton's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
Reasonable pricing, but would have happily paid the same again, if it meant we actually got some decent players through the door. Only time will tell as to whether this has meant a cut in the transfer budget. -
Edit- this is what I think’s happened I’m not claiming to be in an ITK account, either because they’re usually bobbins. GB has told Waggot we need to spend some money, to avoid a repeat of this season. Waggot has told him no, and told him to walk if he’s not on board, with playing the youth team and selling them. Waggot has told Venky’s they don’t need to spend a penny (again), and the Armstrong, Wharton, Raya and Szmodics money will keep the club afloat. The owners have lapped it up, because he’s reducing their losses and they don’t have a clue what’s going on here. Result? A squad that’s not up to the level we’re playing at. When are we- the supporters of this club- going to remove Waggot?

On that last point- I sat in the JW stand for the game against Preston, early on in the season. We were slightly closer to the PNE fans, and they drowned out the home fans I couldn’t hear the Blackburn End, where my season ticket is. It needs looking at. We simply roll over for any club willing to fill the Darwen End, and let them turn it into a home game, because they’ve fans happy to pay £X. It’s nothing shorting embarrassing if truth be told. Ewood should be a fortress and because of that, the Darwen End upstairs only should be the only part being used to house away fans.

v Southampton (h) - 6/4/24
scotchrover replied to philipl's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
He’s a terrible loser. He’s always thought he’s better than what he is. That video -prior to a JDT masterclass at Swansea- said it all when he was going in about us eventually stopping running. I think we won 3-0 that day? In some respects, I hope he takes them up, because they’ll get an absolute pasting with their style of play, and his post match interviews will be hilarious. With how quiet their fans were today too, it shows how riveting their style of play is. I’m not sure I remember a quieter away end at Ewood? -

Another hard fought point, that would have been 3 on another day. This John Eustace team reminds me of the early days of the Hughes period- not exactly gifted, but willing to die to get points on the board. Time for another bev 👍 -
Venky’s & Waggott Out Protest Ideas
scotchrover replied to DuffsLeftPeg's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
Someone needs to get a grip of this and lead a unified effort, before we’re in the same state as Reading. I’ve personally not stepped foot inside Ewood since JDT left. I suspect others are the same. Alarm bells need to be ringing now though. Can we get a meeting organised asap on Zoom, and get a committee in place, to put together some coordinated action?
