Managing director Derek Shaw and operations director Paul Agnew have also flown out, while global advisor Shebby Singh is already in India.
All four men will meet with Venky's chairwoman Anuradha Desai on Monday.

its time they faced up to the reality that the only man for the job is Shebby Singh.

What's going on at Blackburn? It's obvious, the owners believe in reincarnation so they're trying to kill off
Blackburn Rovers so they'll be reincarnated as a great team i.e. Brighton & Hove Albion!

Laugh at Blackburn all you like. If you do then you are all hypocrites as the same happened to us in the 90s.

Did Blackburn fans laugh at us then?

Some of you have pathetically short memories.

I like the way the Blackburn staff have to go to India for a meeting. Obviously the owners can't be bothered to come over here and sort the mess out. How did that lot ever pass the fit and proper test?

Very similar scenario to what happened to us. Been taken over by utter cowboys and being run into the ground. The fans are trying pretty hard to take a stand too but must be very difficult to go against a foe in India.

Laughing at the club itself is totally unfair as the supporters are having to put up with all this crap from the joke owners. It's the owners who have ruined the club, laugh at them.

Relegation again would probably prompt them to sell the club, which would probably be the best thing now.

This. I doubt the owners want a league one side. Hopefully there is a Blackburn fan with a very large wallet who wants to buy thrm.

I just wish these meddling foreign owners would start investing in football in their own countries instead of ruining English league clubs when none of them know anything about the history and legacies (including Shebby Singh, who would have been a Beezer Homes League player at best) , but then again I guess this is payback for English conduct during colonial times
