rumours of a South african businessman and the owner of the miami dolphins looking to bid for rovers hmmmm maybe we did it the wrong way rounds got the indians before the cowboys

Well then we should go in for Victor Moses. I wonder if the Blackburn fans will try and buy the club themselves.

Plus, does anyone think it would be a good idea if English clubs followed the German model, where the fans of each club own 51% of their club

yeah there is a scheme they are trying to make happen apparently 1.5million already pledged proberly be easier and cheaper to buy shares in venkys holdings that way they have to listen

I wonder how many fans will turn up for home matches if the Venky's and Kean are still around

Perrsonally speaking, I think they should have left the Olympic Stadium as it is, as Lomdon wouldn't have a decent multisports stadium. I know they agreed not to rip up the athletics track, but you can bet your bottom dollar, that come next season that won't be there.

The athletics track will stay, as the Olympic Stadium is going to be used for the World Athletics Championships in 2017.
My understanding of the situation with West Ham is that if they moved, they would only be there as tenants, so couldn't get rid of the track even if they wanted to.

Si - Is it right, if they moved to the Olympic Stadium then they'd be there effectively free of charge and are free to pocket the cash from the sale of the Boleyn ground ?
