My moneys on another adjournment. Sounds like Waggot has convinced them we can ‘wash our own face’ by flogging more players before heading into league one with a team of u18s. So why would they push to get it heard if they are given a chance to kick it to the long grass?

We are run by complete and utter muppets if it’s true.

wtf how have we got to £6m for our last star asset? If this is true we must be closer to going into admin than I thought

He is probably busy reading "Director of Football for Dummies" whilst trying to lie as low as possible incase someone asks him a question which he has no idea how to answer. Then once the transfer window closes will appear with some nonsense about funding, not blocking pathways blah blah blah.

We will have played Derby(H), Stockport (A Cup), Norwich (A) by the 20th August. Then Oxford (H) 24th and Burnley (A) 31st. If we are then able to bring players in from 20th onwards there will likely be a period of adjustment to our style/players plus clubs charge us a premium now they know we have some cash to spend. Also anyone available that was decent has probably already moved. I know Venkys like to sabotage us mid-season but this is a new low.

Who’s next out the door? Sammy, Gallagher, Dolan or Hyam would be my guess. Sammy is the golden goose don’t think the others would fetch much

IMO the club, particularly Waggot have outright lied about the severity of the situation the entire way through. It was always shit or bust on the 20th August.

I think it's highly likely it gets delayed again based on the last two occasions, leaving us desperately trying to sell Szmodic or whoever to get enough money to crawl through to Xmas.

Relegation with the current squad, even more so if Szmodic leaves. If we sign 5-6 players of quality than it could all still change however unlikely that is.

I am worried about letting players go before we bring in replacements now Wharton and Whalstedt are gone, Telalovic to follow. It's just an excuse to cost cut and replace them with u23 players or loans as the squad gets smaller and smaller. Happy to eat my words if we go out and buy 6-7 players but doubt we will.

I doubt the club mgmt actually know, they sent Pasha to India a few weeks back to find out according to the Trust, so presumably until that gets decided we just drift along.

Nobody should be leaving until we have some players in the squad is already a shambles. The cost cutting continues

love it, and the removal of the stupid devil on the front is the icing on the cake.

Are these discounted riverside tickets also subject to us hitting 10k?

I don't think its conspiratorial to suggest a club whose owners haven't sent a penny to the club for 8 months (that loses £20m per year) might need to sell players in order to pay bills. Its a fact. The timing is more likely down to external factors rather than Rovers wishes.

I wouldn’t be surprised if they needed the Whalstedt cash to pay some bills hence the quick sale. Expect more to come

https://www.lancashiretelegraph.co.uk/sport/24424188.blackburn-address-two-year-problem-transfer-market/ Music to my ears, found the last few years at Ewood some of the most boring in my 25 years of going. The obsession with 'no 10s' has led to dull walking football with 6 yard one touch passes into the corner and all the way back out to the centre backs again. Getting some power, pace and directness in the wide areas would be fantastic and might give our strikers a chance to score some goals.

We are going to struggle to put a team out come Derby if the trend continues. Let me guess we have this ace in the u23 and we don’t want to block his route to the first team. Glad to see the back to him but we need to bring some players in before we flog anymore.

A Director of Football that has never signed a footballer. Not suprised he doesnt want to have questions asked as he wont have the first clue what he is supposed to do.

The fact they havent sent a penny over since the last court approved chunk late last year tells you all you need to know.

I was thinking they have probably got a couple of million from our season ticket sales so that keeps us afloat for a bit longer till the court case. It must be close though as Venkys send us £20m each year and we have gone through 6 months with no funding. £10m shortfall and only Wharton money to cover it so far with whatever Palace paid to date. if you think we are going on a shopping spree until this court case is heard then you’re in fantasy land.

I feel for any striker at rovers under JDT and then Eustace last season. We barely created anything for them and they were left isolated constantly. You cant score from the halfway line you need crosses, through balls and cut backs into the box. Something which we just didnt do and needs to be addressed by signing two proper wingers this summer. Maybe Telalovic comes good next season if we do, the next Brereton!

Is there any reason Venkys can’t just sponsor the shirt and give us £10m to avoid the FFP stuff? Other than the obvious reason that they are unfit owners.

Really glad to see the back of the vaping sponsor and that stupid logo on the shirt. Sounds like the club have actually done something positive for once from a commercial perspective.

Coventry showing us how it should be done, a few good money signings in already this summer along with the reinvestment last summer after they sold Gyokeres and Hamer. https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/articles/c511leq9q4no Meanwhile we rake in millions and brought in Telalovic, Fleck and McFazadean.
