Don't think the V's will be too concerned about how much they'll get in the Champ.
As mybloodisclaret says, they're megarich and seem to be treating Rovers as a rather boring hobby.
Hopefully, they'll get totally bored and bin em.

I'm off out to India in February.
That money that they have put in equates to 25628487.79 Indian rupees.
You could build around 30 towns in the suburbs of India for that money and feed the families for a year.
Why are they wasting their money on a third world town in England?

Couple more results like yesterday and it will be back on don’t worry about that.
Mowbray’s lost 5 in 52 and they are questioning his ability to do the job on SM last night. One fan calling him gutless !!

Sounds like they are honouring "Jack Walker's Legacy" perfectly - ploughing millions in to prop the feckers up.

Problem is.. Our early season form had propelled us to the edge of the play off places, and got some fans hopes up a bit too high.. The POs are not a realistic target at the moment.. We still have players in the side of league one standard.. It will take time to rebuild to a standard to challenge at the top again.. Shame some fans don't have patience for that.

Totally agree. Far too good for them and still after yesterdays match some want him out. See above one calling him gutless. The flame of entitlement at the Begging Bowl FC is taking far too long to be extinguished. Haha.

Rovers fans don't have any right to lambaste us for at least another 100 years.

How have the league allowed them to get away with that, again?
Their losses must be higher than permitted?

Don't understand your 5 in 52 stat. He's lost 15 from 38 this season. Am I reading you wrong, apologies if so.

I am assuming that it has been converted to equity as previously though find no statement at companies house - being in the Championship however does give them a much greater leeway for operational losses and given the way they have been run in the last couple of years that uld be well over £20m if they chose to

The original statement was from November Houseboy when they were doing not bad in the Championship, coupled with their season in League One may well have been 5 in 52, obviously lost a lot more since then I am glad to say!

Venkys Out is finished. Taken them about 3-4 years longer than people with vision, but Rovers fans have finally realised that Venkys are actually very generous owners who stand between them and financial oblivion.
They had the audacity to compare them to the Oystons ffs

They've got the Freefall Fixture tomorrow!
Frank Lampards Derby, trying to outdo each other with their downhill trends.
Wrovers have a long (chicken) neck advantage.
