Both are a distant memory.

Actually Sir jack died in 2000 and we were in the hands of the Walker Trust. He had built us to be self-sustainable by then and as you know, we operated in the PL for many years after until 2010 with these muppets in charge. The remaining Walker family were not interested in the club and could not wait to get their hands on the money when selling up. They sold to the first idiots that came along for 25 million. Good karma though - as if they had waited a few more years they would have got a s**t-ton more due to the new television deal. As for your hair, I cannot comment.

That's always the biggest nightmare. At least we have local business people interested when our chairman calls it a day.

We now do have local businessmen interested but the Venky's wont sell. I'd take starting out again in League 2 if it meant they were gone. Actually quite enjoying it down here - chance to knock off some new grounds etc. Good news for us but perhaps not for you is that there are big rumours that Jack Payne is coming to us on loan.

Jack Payne would be an excellent signing for Blackburn.

We had a season in the Conference. Really enjoyed it, but Juan was enough!

Well well well......so they're broke are they. I didn't realise by how much until they came boasting on here.
Wow...just followed the link off their messageboard- £13 million in Bank overdrafts and loans and lost £7 million for the year ending March 2017. Its also very sad that a club with their long history, founder members of the Football League etc etc are a 99.99% subsiduary of Venkys London Ltd ( its in their accounts). Or in other words Venkys London Ltd Trading as Blackburn Rovers. What an absolute mess, no wonder they are desperate to get promotion, they make Bury look rich .......must be something in the air in that part of the country

Taming of the Shrews - thats one for you guys Yeah it certainly does not look good finance wise. Bad decisions made a plenty in the last seven years. Poor managerial appointments, poor signings mostly. Manager and player payoffs. Its disgusting what they have done to us. They pumped a load of money in when we dropped to the Championship and while they got a few good players - the rest were dross that were just interested in one last payday such as Danny Murphy and Etuhu. Still, we should have got promoted anyway but our manager was so s**t he couldnt get a team with a 40-goal strikeforce promoted in Rhodes and Gestede. Then our owners started selling anything they could. Cairney out door for 3 mil to a team below us - he is now attracting bids of 15+ from the PL. Joshua King was allowed to leave for nothing and is now a PL striker. The list goes on.

I see the bankrupt ones are back are back on here. I'd laugh if their debt was called in. They'd be ground-sharing with proper football club Accrington Stanley.

Thought you lot were alright after the game at your place, had some nice conversations after the game etc but since we beat you I don’t think I’ve ever seen such rounded bitterness from a club. Proper dummy out the pram stuff - thought you were better than that 🍼

Ow do, B O, were you Juan of the children who ran across to gloat at us as we left the ground? Any road up, off you go and get the buckets out to pay your electric bill. The interest on your debt must be mounting as we speak......

Now dunno you a go worrying about the B O owd lad. The bank manager will be a callin' on them soon enough. Have a look at their fixtures in March. If we're still on their coat tails then, they'd better be afraid......very afraid.
Minus £1.4million and rising.....tick tock...tick tock...
Sent from my mobile on the Central underground line....follow me, every Juan, I know the way.....

No not at all I've made to measure matching blinds all round the house I was suggesting you have unwashed stained net curtains due to me witnessing at first hand the 3rd world state of your housing and population when I visited your s**t hole last week...

Never mind film titles.
Have a look at the Panorama programme on Blackburn tonight.
So glad I got out of that hell hole in 1979.
