By Chris Flanagan, Sports reporter
THE Blackburn Rovers Fans Forum is welcoming involvement from a greater number of supporters in an attempt to restore contact with owners Venky’s.
Nine members of the club’s official fans forum travelled to India in October, to express their concerns about the running of the club.
They returned feeling reassured about Rovers’ future but have now expressed their disappointment that they have no communication from Venky’s since then.
The forum, however, is keen to keep working with the club to improve relations with supporters and has invited more fans to get involved.
A statement said: “When Venky’s invited a group of fans forum members to join the club’s trip to Pune in early October we had high hopes that this represented a commitment to improved communications with the fans.
“During our meeting with Balaji Rao we were led to believe that this was the opportunity for a new start.
“Since we returned we have had no communication from the owners and we are disappointed expectations set at that meeting have unfortunately not been followed through to date.
“Nevertheless our relationship with the management team at Ewood Park continues to be good and it is clear that they are committed to continuing to work together with us.
“We hope that through local management we can develop clearer communication links with the club’s owners in Pune and will continue to provide a voice for all Rovers fans.
“The forum recognises that many fans feel remote from its work. As a result we plan to open up our pre-meets, which are held prior to the meetings with the club and set the agenda for those meetings.
“In addition vacancies on the forum occur from time to time and we would welcome new applications for membership.”
Anyone interested in becoming a member or attending a pre-meet can email secretary John Wareing at roversfansforum@hotmail.com

Unfortunately they may be well meaning but they are a bunch of naive fools to even consider that the Venky's are going to communicate constructively with them. The past is a very firm indicator of what Venky's are like. They bought the club to promote their brand and this is what they have achieved all be it in a way they didn't imagine!! They have no interest in the club and never will have. They will bail out at some point when their so called "honour and keeping face" amongst their own community allows .

If after speaking with them in pune and got the message that they would be happy to discuss with the fans, and are then completely ignored like all the rest that have tried to have dialogue with them,the message must surely be loud and clear, they have no interest in the fans,its sponsors,the local media and even politicians.As far as i am concearned the quicker they leave the better.Then the club and its loyal followers can start to build back the bridges that Venkys have obliterated.

When they stop abusing the supporters, traditions and people of Blackburn by there lack of care, professionalism or common decency, perhaps then we could find some common ground and all the abuse may stop. But do not put the blame squarely on the shoulders of genuine supporters who only want whats best for Rovers and Blackburn. As for racial stereotypes have you forgotten andersons tv interview where he made shrouded hints at racism from the supporters, for that disgraceful strategy he deserves our utmost contempt. When will people realise that all this so called whingeing from fans is a direct result of the behaviour of venkys and kean. Could an increase in numbers using the forum mean anderson and his cronies madly banging out emails under various 'names' trying desperately to make themselves look better. Grow up, only a retard would seriously think our supporters started ,carried on or escalated this situation. Venkys created this with lies and apathy, showing no regard to fans or local culture and traditions, kean supported his beloved leaders by trying to drag fans into his delusory world talking about super signings, telling the fans how well we lost this game and that, and generally DISTANCING HIMSELF from the fanbase. Dear God how much do you expect Blackburners to take before fighting back

Ive heard requests for Venkys to leave us alone which I think is the fans right given the appalling management of the club and blatant lies and reneging on promises but honestly, you must be the most gullible person in Lancashire to believe that is what has led us to this massive stalemate with the owners, whats driven a rift the size of the Grand Canyon between us is a section of fans chanting. When the PM does something that displeases the nation, he/she has to face up to their reaction. Does the PM retreat into the wilderness for months neglecting the job? They are neglecting their responsibility and there are no excuses

Ian Whittam - I think Venkys will hear us loud and clear in a couple of months at Season Ticket renewal time?
.
Thats when Rovers fans can speak with one voice. I would suggets even those who will want to buy one eventually hold off for a few weeks to get the message accross.
.
Whats the betting they suddenly come out with a big PR push of futrue promises around that time?
.
Will anyone but KDG believe them though?

Sorry forum were have you been all this time to little to late and to passive towards venkys.
Don't you think that 4 months from the venkeys meeting they may have at least responded to our very serious concerns about the total lack of management leadership from them. Times up get, wake up it's tooooooooooo flipping late. They are a complete ambaressment to our club, and their spokesman just takes the Michael out of us every time he opens his mouth. Just support the team that's put out on the field and hope, wish and pray we get out this shambles.

the outcome of the fans forum attempts to discuss the plight of rovers is the same as messrs wild and bettersby, jack straw, BwDC, finn and williams, Lancashire Telegraph, protesters, ordinary supporters.
.
lets be clear the venkys have no obligation to talk to anybody - when has nay chelsea supporter group discussed all matters stamford bridge with comrade abramovich, similarly cuddly ken at dirty leeds..... however, all the above are desperately concerned about the future of
their club and at the very least want genuine reassurances from the owners.
.
never mind at least the pies are warm.
