You’re welcome, my entire reason for being here was/is to bring clarity and hopefully some comfort. 

Did Watsmore get banned? 

Top effort Howard, thanks for your input it’s been most illuminating.

Pretty sure he got turfed after getting a little too free and loose with the racial epithets.

Yes, a bit too ‘Yaxley-Lennon’

He posts but fortunately you are spared having to read it

If I granted you one wish, you could allow him back

What do you reckon

Another lurker popping up to thank Howard. Been able to pass his info along from Brisbane back to Bolton and calm my Dad's fears a little. Cheers Fella, you have been doing a real service here.

A pleasure 

Howards input and this site in general has been invaluable during the last few traumatic weeks.

Anyway, are we having a Blackburn relegation "Party"?

Show those turds what proper support looks like.

Breaking over 10 years of Wways lurkdom to extend my sincere thanks to Howard. More and better information about this latest debacle than all news media combined.

Between Howard, John Galt, Watsmore, Maximus et al. there has been more excitement in this thread than the players have dished up all season.

 

Hbaywt?

I trust howard more than life. He gives hope where there is none!

Well he amused me in a way. Took WWays back to when it was all about being incorrect in many ways rather than being fascinated with accounting procedures 

Howard for PM when Theresa May goes next week 👍

Sorry been on a flight and away from the action.... this is what we think Ken is going to walk away with from his time at the club?

What Howard thinks he will walk away with at the 'leaving' of the club.

What he walks away with from his 'time' at the club would only be known when the accounts for the last season and a half are published - and added together with what is known from the previous publish accounts covering his tenure.

Before anyone goes ballistic over it though we need to find out if in taking out these sums, if he's left us in a far better place (all creditors to be paid off, with a new owner with substantial funds, apparently) than where we were when he took on the club.

If that ends up being the case, I don't care if he makes £10m.

Typical

the rest of us have spent ten years providing top drawer insights into fascinating subjects including elephant deaths, saucy pictures of scantily clad beauties & sexually daring male pensioners; even the occasional enlightenment around Brexit. And not a single thanks, nod of the head, nowt.

you're fuckin welcome.

 

Now I'm thinking of a scantily clad elephant man (aka John Merrick) and thats putting me right off my morning shower wank... 

And now I'm thinking of that sex beast out of American Beauty and Usual Suspects... 

I hope you are happy.

Try picturing Donald tusk and Msr Macron double ending Theresa May

Howard's done ok.

But he's no Hilary Stonefrost (in a basque) and Spezials /// 

Too early to ask yet, I know but, is the general consensus that we will prevail and, with new manager and players next season will romp League One?

Better had or the bedsheet is coming back out

Does your hunch have deep pockets Chris ?

Yes. Deeper than Anisimov's. Lives in Lausanne. Not much to go on other than a hunch though.

P.S. Its entirely plausible that Ken needed to raise additional money to keep the show on the road but I remain unconvinced about speculative allegations of irregularities that BL's auditors didn't notice.

Iles spreading his usual negativaty this morning probably because he backed the wrong horse, again

Perhaps a bit soon to predict we’ll romp Div 1, but i expect the rest to happen.

I think he's got ADHD or Journalistic Tourettes, he just can't help himself.
He was off for 5 days, stated back at work at 9am the other day and posted his first anti-BWFC negative tweet at 9.04am, presumably spending the first few minutes getting a brew and some more biscuits.

He's so ill-informed it's untrue, but you've got people hanging off his and Fat John's every word, fawning and arse-kissing them all day.
