The muppets are on the move.

[randomclaret2]

Wrexham have sold more tickets than B/Burn

[Spike]

It’s a place of misery!

[Goody1975]

Venky's must be quivering at the thought of this.

A 6ft banner, that'll show them.

[Goody1975]

What these brain donors don't realise is that even if the Venky's left tomorrow, wrote off all the debt and sold the club for £1, there won't be a queue of people wanting to take over a club losing hundreds of thousands of pounds a week (400k a week in 21/22).

It's a bottomless pit that the Venky's keep feeding.

A banner advertising Bitdefender?!
(For those who read every post literally- I’m kidding )

[Tricky Trevor]

After letting their captain go out on loan and their run of results can they afford to can JDT?

[ClaretLoup]

It's interesting that at 15,428 their average gate is the lowest in the Division except for soon to be relegated Rotherham.

So thanks to the Venkys they are actually punching well above their weight in terms of income.

[Funkydrummer]

The natives are getting restless.

Living over here in Darwen is starting to become very interesting all of a sudden.

Start communicating? With the fans???

Well that’s going to pee this messageboard admins off…other clubs do it too

That’ll be me then

[Commy]

Isn't the reason they don't go is because one of them was attacked?

[Bordeauxclaret]

Lost a few again have they?

[claretonthecoast1882]

Imagine the prospect of facing a protest from the most gutless spinless fan base in the country.

Even Reading have shown more fight than the most self entitled lot. Just a shame they didn't draw Man Utd or Liverpool at home again to show everyone else just how plastic they are.

[bfcjg]

With jow they are shipping goals should they not be complaining about Shitdefenders ?

[Westleigh]

Lost a few again have they?

It’s a bit of light relief after a bad result for us watching this lot gradually implode.

[Steve-Harpers-perm]

Imagine how they feel about never seeing the owners in the country never mind just blanking them outside the ground.

[mybloodisclaret]

1. The ultimate aim is for Venky's to sell the club to ownes who are present.

3. If there is no response from the initial aims, (so presumably to Venkys selling the club) the protest movement enters it's next phase.
Ohhh very fiendish is this...... "At that point I will get out my 6 foot banner" Is this poster for real???

[Nori1958]

Imagine how they feel about never seeing the owners in the country never mind just blanking them outside the ground.

And never doing interviews with local press, or attending games

[claretonthecoast1882]

Didn't they do something weird once a few year back where they announced they were going all make a late entrance for a game on Sky to highlight how hard done to they are and about 20 turned up during the first half.

[bfcjg]

Perhaps the terrifying prospect of a six foot banner could be used in Ukraine to frighten the Russians into leaving.

[Kilson810]

They should be careful what they wish for. Probably not a massive queue of potential owners who want to take on a loss making business.

[maccclaret]

Would the banner not need to be in the Riverside Stand to be seen by the TV cameras and unleash it's full terrifying effects?

[The Hung Juror]

May I suggest getting relegated, might get the attention of the owners.

[Quicknick]

15,428 is a decent average for the Championship. Didn't we get promoted with fewer watching us in 2014?

[Shaggy]

I’m sure we could find someone to hire a plane pulling a banner behind it over deadwood with a message on it to rile up the few who attend?

[claretonthecoast1882]

15,428 is a decent average for the Championship. Didn't we get promoted with fewer watching us in 2014?

Their average crowd is vastly inflated by giving away teams up to 7000 tickets, unlike anybody else in the division.

[Ric_C]

Their average gate is surprisingly high tbh, although artificially bumped up from the games with Leeds and PNE

[Quickenthetempo]

They are artificially inflated.

They reckon about 6k were actually in attendance for the Huddersfield game.

[claptrappers_union]

“ 1. The ultimate aim is for Venky's to sell the club to new owners who are present, communicate with the fans and have the best interests of the club & fans at heart, and
the community it is part of.”

There's the first stumbling block…

The delusion that they think someone out there has the money to buy the club and its debts and treat it as a priority is astonishing.

The aim should be just for Venkys to engage more in the club

The next phase is very strongly worded letter.

[TheFamilyCat]

Their average crowd is vastly inflated by giving away teams up to 7000 tickets when it suits them, unlike anybody else in the division.

[bfcjg]

They could threaten a cavalry charge on their "ahem" special friends.

[Clovius Boofus]

Feeling down? Feeling under the weather? Got the January blues?

Have a look at this and laugh your arse off.

The ultimate aim is for Venky's to sell the club

[Stayingup]

They were very fortunate that Venkys bought the club. Walker Trust were delighted and Venkys must now have massive regrets. Can't imagine a Wrexham style takeover at Deadwood and surely the saner types who support them must realize this.

[daveisaclaret]

Don't really understand the criticism of anti-Venky Rovers fans. They bought an established Premier League club and turned it into a crap Championship team (with a stint in League One thrown in). It's a disgrace that that club runs with such losses and under decent owners it wouldn't.

[Bordeauxclaret]

I’d hazard a guess they’ve run at a loss most years since about 1991.

[Woonderbah]

Rovers fans are revolting

[Foshiznik]

I'm hoping the Venky's sell to a Notts County/Oldham/Barnet/Darlington type ownership group/individual.

[Kilson810]

Just a duplicate from the transfer rumour thread, but apparently they have turned down an £18.5m bid from Crystal Palace for Adam Wharton. They must be expecting to be able to get even more money for him to turn that down.

Blackburn Rovers aren't big enough to spend decades in the PL they were always going to fall from grace once the Walker money had either gone or the PL became so big it was no longer a factor.

The losses are incurred because the Venky's throw £20 million into them every season because otherwise they aren't really big enough to be at the top of the Championship either.....

Is that logic not entirely backwards? The losses aren't incurred because Venky's throw money in. Venky's throw money in because they are running the club at a massive loss. Because the club is not being run well. The solution to that it not Venky's forever, it is better owners.

[Funkydrummer]

Isn't there a guy down the road in Bury who can help us out and
cock things up, even better than the chicken Georges of this world.

Give him a bell !!!!!

Virtually every team in the Championship runs at massive losses, it's nothing to do with the owners (other than they all keep subsidising it). For the past 5 years total wages in the Championship have been higher than total revenues.

Preston are a good example, generally around mid-table each year but still need big subsidies from their owner.

Really surprised we arent in for him, hes a fantastic young player thst would fit in nicely alongside Berge.
Possible that hes told us where to go already of course.l being from down the road

[GetIntoEm]

not a 6ft banner

[Quicknick]

I didn't think about that. Quite a few Championship teams have huge away followings given the possibility. The away fans there must make so much more noise than Rovers'.

[Blatherwickstattoo]

What a bunch of sad, pathetic, Lonsdale slip on
Wearing wet wipes these lot are.

[ElectroClaret]

I feel another boycott approaching....
Mind you, who'd notice?

Have found the image of the Banner in the brfc rant in the image in the OP's attachment.
