i cant believe thos shower are anywhere near our club.

venkeys didnt know we could be relegated
kean doesnt kbow who is fit to play
he doesnt know who is being sold from under him
we sign a sunday league defender who is related to the bosses agent who hasnt a hope in hell of ever being a footballer and no doubt he will be on huge wages
our captain wants to leave
our unfit club captain has left to play immediately for spurs
players ate being sidelined to save money not points
crowds are down by a good 7 thousand and season ticket sales will be pitiful next year
a manager with the worst record of managing anything ever is untouchable due to the company he works for
our local paper is under threat of legal action from the managers employer
the investors from india are silent in the extreme
but its all nothing to do with jerome anderson of course. i know it looks like all thos is all to do with him and he will be making millions from all this but it really is nothing to do woth him. ots all just a big coincidence. i feel sorry for him really because given all these councidences anyone could think he is our chairman and directing all this chaos for his own personal game but honestly... he os nothing to do woth it.

Me thinks we are cutting of our nose to spite our face here. It seems that the decision not to play Samba is coming from high in Pune. The problem is with all our problems over finance we are going to halve his fee in the summer proving what most of us said we should sell in Jan. In addition it now looks as though we will get nothing for Hoilet as he looks to be heading to Germany for free. What a b***dy shambles after all we were told and should have left negotiations to a proper chairman instead of leaving it all to amateurs. All of this will cost the club something in the region of £10 million. Time to switch off the lights at Ewood.

You are not saying that Kean is a puppet who does whatever he does by the Venkys are you? How dare you suggest such a thing!
Maybe such an assessment is understandeable at times over the contractual situation of certain players.
-
Next you will be saying that he has no choice over who he buys and sells aswell. All his purchases have been decided by dodgy agents and advisors of the Venky's, of course not.
-
Kean is a man of integrity. A man who makes his own decisions. He would never be a complete puppet like that.

Steve Kean will not be sacked by Venkys this season or next.
I can see the club going right through the championship as venkys asset strip the club that Jack Walker built.
It really is a complete shambles on how to run a company
Kean is on a pittance of a wage as far as prem managers go , in the region of £15.000 a week , a lot to us but to venkys not a lot as they will milk the parachute payments when the club is finally relegated this year.
Apparantley from sources within the club " It is a complete shambles"
I stopped going over 12 mths ago de-faulting on my season ticket, despite letters from the club i have refused to pay the balance of £175-00.
The reason why was they Venkys broke promises to season ticket holders, i have had a season ticket since 1984, often going in the 100 club and A BOX member , not anymore , and if what i am told there will be no one buying next year , only the real die hard supporters, of which i was once, going to many away games too.
It saddens me to see the club being run like it is , but people who laugh beware it could so easily happen to you , when we have the spineless people at the fa and also a man who is chairman of the LMA , and a regular visitor to Ewood sitting back and doing nothing, hang your head in shame!!!!!!!!!

Should also say that what Chris Samba is doing is NOT going to change the administration at Blackburn. Kean will still stay regardless of whether or not Samba plays.

Surely the question is - has Kean told him he is playing and he has refused or has Kean decided to leave him out because "his mind is not right". Given Givet's absence it will be interesting to see whether our former team captain has the moral fibre to turn in and do the job he gets paid so much to do. The Club is bigger than any one player and if it is necessary to sue Samba then so be it. Samba is suffering far less than any fan throughout this miserable farce and should stop snivelling.

Agree alfa111, Venky's and Kean all need to apologise and leave, not bothered in what order they do the above but as long as they do it NOW!

I'm proper angry at Samba too coz he gets paid a lot more money at Rovers than most players, arguably gets paid the most at the club when we need him committed for the team cause... Committed as in dedicated, not straight jacket committed! Plus with Givet now serving a ban....

Keans already starting to use his and venkys deceitful communications again i see, by the use of the samba saga,samba dont forget has not played for weeks now including the games kean was claiming we had turned a corner, were on the up. Kean is now using samba to deflect any criticism from himself and venkys own failings and atrocious management of the team and the poor performance on saturday of the team.We all know samba is wrong for not playing but dont let kean deflect anything from what is happening at ground level. He and he alone should apologies, not for the team but for his own shocking running of rovers, its his team his management his ideas that have failed again and again.Not just for saturday but all season long, he should now resign, nothing else will do now, nothing else will ease the pressure of the last few remaining games for the players and the fans. To save BRFC and its good name and integrity his resignation must come before anything else now we can not move forward until then, he talks like its been all good up to the Arsenal game the guy is a fully qualified bulls***er trained by his masters the venky snake charmers kean before anything else can change you must go now. .KEAN OUT VENKYS OUT.

Didn't read this first, but yes like me you see the cloak and dagger scenario acting out. Just like it has for all of their tenure.

I would hope ALL supporters to see it for what it is.
As I said earlier Chris if anything has scored an own goal and handed them the 'opportunity'.
They must have been rubbing their hands when he did.

Let's have this right here. There's a lot to critisise kean about but the non playing of samba is not one of them. Our captain is the disgrace here. Ok he wants to leave, promises have been broken etc but to refuse to play is disgraceful. He needs to sort himself out and make himself available, let's face it there will be many players who want to leave but they haven't taken sambas stance.
Also only qpr bid for him. Is he as good as he thinks he is?

Even if true there are a couple of problems with this.

1. I think it's too late now
2. Venkys are the huge part of the problem they need to go
3. Which manager of standing in their right mind would walk into this dogs breakfast.

I think they no have option now except to stick with Kean and see if he can perform a miracle.

You say he needs to 'make himself available'. Are you in a position to know that in fact he has said he isn't? Are you confident that Kean is and has always told the truth? Are you confident that Venkys are and always have acted in the best interests of the club? The point I am making is, that unless you are 'knowledgeable of the dealings inside of Ewood - as fact. And your faith in the owners and Kean is bulletproof. Why should you we trust what they say? I will say again that no one is justifying Sambas actions, but on the reverse side why would we take Keans 'slant' on the situation as reality? Samba as an individual/employee is not the problem and thus his current 'position' is of small matter the the bigger picture. People who 'spin' just love these kind of 'opportunities' to present themselves.
