Emerald Isle Rover replied to Upside Down's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
I like the look of miller I follow a good bit of Scottish football heโs decent. How that transfers to the championship only time will tell but can play centre half and rb good age profile is an international - decent signing -

I was thinking exactly this this afternoon. Every single transfer window since the Court case I get more and more despondent about the Club. The likes of Dolan and Brittain are nowhere near the best players to leave the Club. It's nowhere near a Shearer or Duff or Adam Wharton moment, hell it's probably no nowhere even near a Tony Field or a Roger Jones or a Simon Barker moment. However the plan now seems clearly to be to shed all higher earners and scour the lower reaches of European Leagues or any other League where players are paid a fraction of what they are in the Championship and are therefore still happy to come. If we can do this and remain competitive in the top half of the table or even just about survive it's a stroke of genius but as Herbie says "but..........". When you've got to the stage where the Club isn't prepared to offer competitive enough wages to retain the services of decent Championship players like Brittain and Dolan or even tempt a 35 year old centre back or a 34 year old squad player into signing a short term deal, the temptation is as you say to think "Why bother?" -

At least we're replacing Brittain....Another player over 6ft n all...We are a team of giants! -
Terrible owner = but theyโll go in the short to medium term. Proper football club like that will recover, perhaps strongly. Terrible owner = They wonโt go and they are happy to see the club further and further โcut its clothโ until allโs left is a raggy piece of string.

Definitely not "exciting" but certainly an "exiting" summer. Venkys out!! -
Oh I don't know. They were a struggling Championship club when he turned up 10 years ago and still are. We were a top 10 Premier League club when our lot took over and look where we are now. Granted they are having all sorts of issues at the moment but I expect they will be rid of him and under better ownership in the not-too-distant future whilst our owners continue to leave us to decay.

Lewis Miller, 750k according to Nixon. Sounds like good value - although clearly wonโt be same standard as Brittain. Any Scots know much about him? -

I hope you let their tyres down as an appropriate gesture on your way out, to give them an exciting journey home. It is high time some of these nuovo lumpen petit bourgoisie pillocks were instructed to stuff socks in their mouths before uttering any simpering drivel like that to good folk like you. -

Lewis Miller is the Aussie apparently - Fee approx ยฃ1.5m and can play RB and RCB - big, powerful and highly rated. Seems a good signing if it happens. -

Improving isnโt the goal. Cost cutting is the prime objectiveโฆhopefully whilst avoiding relegation. Butโฆ
