Thats absolute nonsense. A very good player but equally not remotely underrated, he has always had loads of plaudits. Former players, pundits, fans. Not a good example of the no one rates the English mindset.

We've already had M-Matthews on the bench this season... -
Underrated? No chance. One of the most overrated players from the Fergie-Era for me. Lampard, Gerrard and maybe even Carrick above Scholes in midfield IMO.

They'd be better just allocating a permanent lounge for leaving do's ! -
If Scholes was called scholesinho he would get loads of plaudits but because he's English he's underrated

A lot recently. If there is an actual event taking place presumably they'll all be going off elsewhere. -

If the book is a limited edition it is normal to state how many are being produced for sale. A little birdy at Ewood tells me they are doing a βgold trimmed edition for special guestsβ. I guess the club executives are expecting us to subsidise these. -

From a purely playing perspective, if we hadn't have needed to spend fees on replacing Brittain/Travis and could therefore have brought in a striker it makes it even more ludicrous that we won't give all these players the going rate to stay in the first place. -

RevidgeBlue replied to Upside Down's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
Agreed. The guys at the last FF did a sterling job of getting Suhail to reveal his true feelings and put his foot in it in general. "Wasnt aware" Lowe had left." "Spending doesn't guarantee success" "The owners aim for the Club is to be "sustainable" "Never asked the owners if there can be an arrangement to reinvest a percentage of transfer income back into the side" "It was the owners decision to disband the women's team" -

He did ok for Peterborough a couple of years ago, think he was in their Championship squad with Szmodics etc) cant imagine Rovers would be looking for another centre back unless they lose one (Hyam due to his contract maybe?) though -

Josh knight (English defender) is going cheap from Hannover 96. He will probably end up at a championship club. Never seen him play but the fans liked him. New manager has a different style of play and he doesn't fit in -

Obviously you don't go to Ewood, must be your imagination, he definitely played. -

KentExile replied to Upside Down's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
It "makes sense" now that Gristedes original 5 areas has been slimed down, and a striker is "no longer wanted", Just a RW and Travis replacement Had Brittain/Travis not left/leaving, they wouldn't have been needing replacing, so a striker might have still been on the cards Obviously the sane & sensible thing would have been to see that we had received some transfer income & spent some of it But sales do not impact income for some unfathomable reason -

Even if it would take 1 minute of football to put Mafoumbi on, if hes nowhere near good enough. It means taking up a space on the bench that could go to someone else who actually could contribute, it means saving a sub (and one of 3 potential windows) to potentially use him, and if there is one goal either way or if the game is level you are then prioritising registration technicalities over the game. And its a bit humiliating for him to do that and then he goes back to being in and out at under 21 level. I wouldnt be comfortable doing that. Should just have been paid up at the start of the summer as an acceptance that we should never have signed him. -

RevidgeBlue replied to Upside Down's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
This has already been widely discussed on here by our 2 resident experts Wilesden Rover and KentExile and that seems to be their consensus. We're less sure if anyone at the Club is aware of this but they should be by now if they keep tabs on this Forum. -

I reckon there would be some bonus he would be due if he were to make a senior appearance as itβs the only real reason why we considered/did this already -

Totally crazy and two in their right mind accepts that? It is like a store selling all of their stock and not buying any to replace it, so just let the place fizzle out and go bump. -

I mean the most insane element of it is that at the same time touting a player trading model like Brentford/Brighton, Suhail states that he has never asked the owners about reinvesting transfer funds when players are sold.
