You've spent about twice as much as we did on the title winning rovers team..

£10 million in 1995 is about 17.5 this year. So you probably spent the same. Plus your money came from that bloke who's family sold you down the river when he pegged it.

Enjoy league 1.

I saw an article the other day that said Premier League football spending is seven times the rate of inflation, so we've actually spent a fraction of what bastards spent.

Weren't they breaking British transfer fees back then?
So I suppose the equivalent of buying 2 or 3 players
at £50m, £60m or 89m each?
Plus a British record for a goalkeeper.
What is Saxo on?

If only you could get someone of Shearer's quality for £3m now.

The point of you and your post is pointless.

Is that not a program where the idea is to get the lowest points possible, shame but I think saxons team are having a right good go at winning that program !!!!

Royboyclaret · Post by **Royboyclaret** » Thu Feb 02, 2017 4:38 pm

It's as factual as your 'factual' post yesterday re Bolton's debt.

The difference between the Burnley and Blackburn spend is that we earned our money first.

Saxoman · Post by **Saxoman** » Thu Feb 02, 2017 4:41 pm

We earned our money by attracting jack walker to be a fan of the club..

And by spending someone elses money and inflating your little club beyond its natural level you attracted venkys, kentaro, SEM, Steve Kean, Jerome Anderson and Owen Coyle

You don't half talk Shiite.

Albert Einstein's Theory of Stupidity is doing something wrong, then continually going back to do it again. So his Theory of Evolution is spot on. He knew there would be complete wazzocks like Saxo.

Der he was already a fan as a boy, he just turned following your team to owning your team, then after his death his family sold it nice!

Rovers probably spent more on Shebby and Steve Keen than they did on their Premier League winning side.

it amazes me how so many of you get caught on the end of Saxo's fishing line every post. If you don't like him, stick him on your foe list, me personally I find him amusing and annoying in equal measures and to be fair he takes an awful lot of abuse and he keeps on coming back. Strong chin which makes me think he really is a closet claret haha

You are missing out. I thought long and hard about doing this, but there are far more deserving of that fate than this muppet. At least this lad has the bottle to actually admit being a steward.

There are a couple or more on here who profess to be Clarets that are far more deserving of being on a "foe" list.

Before posting on these boards, I used to think the fact that I annoy people and get under their skin was unfair and down to my appearance. These boards have taught me this is not the case and I'm just very talented at being a bit of a tosser..

Its just my personality and who I am, I can't change. There's no genuine malice.

And then you attracted the Venkys to your club, and you earned what you got from them too. you earned it, you deserve it, and I'm so happy that you're getting it.

Claretforever · Post by **Claretforever** » Thu Feb 02, 2017 10:15 pm

I know it's fishing, but I just want to point something out; we will likely still make a profit this year, whereas Rovers have lost money in all but 4 seasons since Sky invented football. They lived WAY beyond their means, which is nothing like us who are spending money we've earned through promotion, and likely won't make a loss.

The other thing is that you can forget 'normal' inflation. Let's talk football inflation. In the early 90's teams got £3m per season Fromm Sky. The top few teams now get around £140m, so the £30m Walker spent can be timesed by around 47!! What's that, about £1.4 BILLION?

It would take around that to truly compete with the top 3 or 4 for a few season nowadays too.
