As is every town and city
People (mainly kids)are just enjoying themselves or is it only us that pay to go games entitled to enjoy the occasion?
i didn't go to Ewood after Anfield
I didn't stay at the end of the Oxford game
I didn't turn out to celebrate the full members or League cup success

What does that say?
I'm Miserable?
I'm not a big kid who fawns over people doing their jobs?

A different time and a different town . It’s nice to see all that enthusiasm and ‘ potential ‘. I’m afraid we’d struggle to get those numbers to turn up to celebrate the winning of a ‘ minor ‘ trophy these days .

 

[Drog]

Have the Walker years spoiled us?

 

[khmerblue]

It has,I think now the club is moving in the right direction,fans on the other hand find it hard to forgive the venkys that will take another generation and culture.

 

[Drog]

Nothing will ever convince me that the venkys are not just a convenient excuse to very many waggy.

 

[Old Darwen Blue]

Never forgive never forget. They have ruined our club.

 

[khmerblue]

Just like you said when I refused to go to ewood under bfs,I'd fallen out with football nope you were wrong then and your wrong now the only thing left in Blackburn that belonged to the white people of the town was our football club ,when the trust sold to venkys they sold the town down the river.

You still go though don't you ODB?

 

[Drog]

Well apart from that sounding racially motivated that comment is more than a little illogical.
For a start you refused to go cos of allardyce yet I presume you were quite happy to see him sacked and replaced by Anderson's puppet Steve Keane? Those two caused a thousand times more damage to this club than allardyce.

Secondly after bemoaning the demise of blackburns white legacy after the sale of the club to Asian owners you then leave the uk to live in a south Asian outpost. How do you square that circle?

Kean

Come on drog, if you are going to berate others, at least get your spelling right, especially when it's someone despised by all.

 

[Old Darwen Blue]

You still go though don't you ODB?

And your point is?

 

[Drog]

Why do I need to explain this ODB? See post 9.
You can't forgive the venkys yet you still go, on the other hand thousands(?) use them as a convenient excuse.

 

[Old Darwen Blue]

I’m not referring to thousands, I am referring to me. They are the worst owners we have ever had and have practically destroyed my club. The last reference being the most pertinent, they may currently hold the keys but Blackburn Rovers belongs to me and us not them. They are merely temporary custodians and may be gone sooner than you think.
I took part in protest marches, sit ins, 18-75 protests and the like as far as my job would allow. I did not once however decide to walk away, I believe in fighting not quitting. I will never forgive the venkys but neither will they prevent me supporting my club.
Compare if you like my stance in contrast to the almost “Vichy” like behaviour displayed in some sections of our current support.

 

[Drog]

They've made a mess of things that's for sure but in their defence they do keep chucking lot's of brass in to keep us going when lot's might have cut and run.

They’re morally obliged to its their f****** fault we are where we are! I will never be a venkapologist, NO NAY NEVER
