Supposedly letting all contracts run down. 5 due this summer and no discussions planned. The new secretary works from home and has never been to Blackburn ha Internal squabbles with the venkys means they’ll not spend any dough. Quote

Something to do with the Indian government banning them from ploughing money into foreign businesses? Quote
Tonge moor green jacket Posted February 10 Posted February 10 Just been having a look. They made a huge loss in 23. A small profit last year, though if it wasn't for player sales, then another big loss would have occurred. If contracts are running down, then there is less value in them. Going to take some cost cutting to get back on track. Well over £100m in debt. Quote

Indian government have stopped their rich lot from moving money out of the country (not just Venkys). Venkys have to apply to the government to send cash over to prop Rovers up. So far, the government have only approved amounts to essentially keep the lights on. It’s been masked by some brilliant player sales in the period since, which has basically bankrolled them for a year or two, but if there’s not another one of them lined up then they’re going to have to cut their cloth massively pretty soon (which it sounds like they’re already on with) unless the Indian government have a change of heart.

What they can spend, apparently the brothers/sisters/cousins (not a Blackburn piss take, I’m not sure) can’t agree where one wants to spend a bit but the other 2 don’t. They can’t bin them off as such as one doesn’t agree. Sounds a mess. Chortle. Quote

My son's coach is a Blackburn fan and apparently there's nothing actually legally stopping them putting money into Rurvurs, but for every quid that leaves India, they have a give the Indian Govt (sovereign fund, or whatever) the same So a £10m player costs them £20m because of a 100% tax Quote
Tonge moor green jacket Posted February 10 Posted February 10 They would be able to spend profit that they generated, rather than stuff incoming from India. Trouble is, they don't seem to be making any. Quote

I could never understand how he wasn't an automatic starter under Ten Haag given how bad they are. Quote

RONNIE PHILLIPS Posted February 10 Posted February 10 As much as I see Blackburn as our biggest rivals and as the song says "many years", I wouldn't want to see them go bust...... Struggle like fuck for 20yrs in League 2 would do just fine though 😁 Quote
