  1. Others have a much better knowledge and feel for FFP. However, I am reliably advised that the club were in an absolutely fantastic / never to be matched position to really have a go for promotion, unfettered by FFP restrictions, this season, especially in the window just gone.
  2. Jack would be turning in his grave, his kids and family sold him out.
  3. Less we forget, an Agent who basically fleeced Andrew Cole of £30k !
  4. They spent over an hour on the BBC Lancs interview trying to outline all the issue and problems they face as evidence that without the Venky benefactor model, we wouldn’t have a club. Andy Bayes threw them a few trickier questions than the pathetic in-house effort but he never follows it up with proper and forensic challenge to discredit / dismantle their bluster. With regard to two specific aspects, ST’s and the match day experience excuses, we had nearly 20,000 ST holders and average 25k matchday crowds when they arrived. Then, most folk were in the stadium 45 minutes before kick off and so it is their actions that have lost the ST base and are the reason the remaining folk turn up within 15 minutes of kick off. Just own up to it, the problems all result from the 15 years of Venky mismanagement. To me, the one pertinent question is what in 15 years of Venky ownership has improved ! In that time, we have seen the club twice relegated, the ST and match going base decimated, the fan experience deteriorate to what must be the worse in the EFL and the condition fabric of Ewood itself, be wilfully neglected. We were rightfully proud of our club and now we are embarrassed by what it has become. Enough is enough, time to regain our club.
  5. Maybe he took the Koolaid down Brockhall
  6. At least Bumble and the lad in Beirut then came on to truly reflect the feeling of the wider fan base, enough is enough.
  7. Unbelievable, he just wasn’t reading the room at all and must have got a kick out of it !
  8. Great until one absolute plank came on, wasn’t reading the room at all and was given far too much air time for his Venky apologist / Waggott doing a good job / who would want Blackburn Rovers bile.
  9. I prefer the full house toxicity as you feel you are doing something. However, on balance, the silent and empty Ewood is likely to be more effective as the quieter mass or more likely to support non attendance rather than confrontation.
  10. Either approach works but only basis that everyone agrees and follows the same path. A full toxic Ewood or silent and empty Ewood would clearly convey the same message.
  11. I know many in 1) & 2) and personally, I have a foot in both camps. However, enough is enough and after 43 years as a ST holder, I am very sadly considering non-renewal for the bigger picture and greater cause.
  12. But just maybe, finally, the chance of a resurrection or if all else fails, a Pheonix !
  13. I share your pain and understand your feelings but if Carlsberg did protests, we would see a full and toxic Ewood and everyone leaving at HT or on 75 minutes. Shows the watching world our potential and our clear disgust of the regime.
  14. Well they certainly didn’t show up there, either your spot on or that performance forced them to move away from Lowe / Johnston until the end of season.
