The Mayor Of Simpleton Posted March 19, 2013 Share Posted March 19, 2013 Michael Appleton becomes the latest manager to be sacked by the Venky's: http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/football/21843906 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rhodes Posted March 19, 2013 Share Posted March 19, 2013 It's a shame Blackburn got that 95th minute equaliser on Sunday against bitter rivals Burnley, I think we all want to see the beleaguered Club get relegated again and the 'evil' Venky's finally throw in the towel suffering huge personal financial losses Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rhodes Posted March 30, 2013 Share Posted March 30, 2013 How can a Club employ someone like Shebby Singh who doesn't know what day it is let alone anything about football, it says it all about the current state of Blackburn Rovers, a once proud Football Club: On 28 June 2012, Blackburn's Indian owners Venky's made Shebby Singh their "Global Advisor". On the 29th December 2012, he appeared on 6-0-6 with Robbie Savage and Darren Fletcher. He confirmed that Steve Kean had resigned from the club as opposed to the sacking reported in the press whilst calling his appointment of Berg, which lasted 10 games and 57 days, as a 'mistake that he regretted'. He denied that he had ever taken training and stated the club's next manager would be a man with experience, ruling out Aston Villa coach Kevin MacDonald. Inspite of this, Blackpool's Micheal Appleton, a relative new comer to management got the job, prompting criticism from fans. Singh's involvement with the club has caused much anger among fans, as they do not see him to be fit or qualified for his role as "global advisor" with the club, a role which has seen him able to make managerial decisions. These decisions have included the hiring of Henning Berg as manager, who lasted just 57 days as manager of the club, whilst he was also instrumental in the dismissal of Michael Appleton, who only lasted 67 days in the Ewood Park hotseat. This managerial unrest, coupled with controversial outbursts has seen his popularity among fans hit rock bottom. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rhodes Posted April 1, 2013 Share Posted April 1, 2013 It's looking grim for Blackburn isn't it and they're deep in relegation trouble following the 3-0 defeat at Cardiff this afternoon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rhodes Posted April 6, 2013 Share Posted April 6, 2013 Blackburn could drop into the bottom three today if they lose at Hillsborough and they're currently 3-2 down with minutes left, I wonder what the Venky's are thinking wherever they are, it's certainly not in Sheffield Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
