Actually I just checked and it was only a loan at Zaragoza. However, I still think a player and agent know their relative market and with strikers, there is always a premium.

That doesn't matter If you have a job which pays £50K a year, and get offered a job with another company who you know pays everyone else £100K/year, you don't accept £60K/year because it is more than you are currently on He was on loan there

Also I think Gueye had a spell in Spain at Real Zaragoza. It might not have gone too well but they signed him for a fee and will have no doubt paid decent wages.

Did Gueye have another buyer from the championship? I doubt it very much Plus the team we bought him from had been relegated hadn't they ? So he was probably looking at a reduction in his wage if he stayed there. Like I said it's plausible he is on that little.

I was there with my dad. Had seats on the side of the pitch that were so low down you felt like you were looking up at the players! We played terribly tbh and were never really in the game. Was exciting for a 10-year old to see some great players in the Derby team. No putting out a weakened side in the cup in those days!!

Correct, but agents know what they can get their clients from Championship clubs Its a lot more than £5K/week (even here)

Not saying he I'd definitely right but I find 5k per week plausible for Gueye.The average salary in the Belgium top flight will not be a lot

was the annual "run your sister a bath day"

Hence the quote marks ‘big’, in the Pasha / Gestede / Venky run husk of our beloved and once proud and famous Blackburn Rovers.

Which equates to a lot more than £5K/week But he did use "" when stating big money, which indicates that whilst it may be big money for current day Rovers, it is not big money when compared to our rivals

Big money signing? We paid an initial £1 million hardly a big money signing to be fair

Hull are a good side. How we won there 3-0 in the league beggars belief. Because of that win I think we'll lose narrowly.

standard rovers january window,an early loan,then nothing for weeks,then the last week another loan followed by someone at the end of their career who was useful 5 seasons ago,we all know the script🙂

👍

I have never wanted Rovers to lose any match and today is no different. I hope we play our strongest available team and give the travelling fans a great day out. Hull have suprised me a tad this year and enjoyed some very good performances and results. Feels like a free hit with low expectations.

I definitely believe the reported £10k per week budget salary cap. I imagine they will currently work on an average over the squad but their desire would be to get the higher earners down to that sort of level and hence why no senior players renew contracts. However, a ‘big’ money signing on a multi year contract at £5k a week, I don’t believe that at all, in those circumstances, no sane player and perhaps, more importantly, Agent would sign up on those terms.

He'll miss it

Just look at the Rovers Ladies team 😡🙈

Yet.

My money is on Colby Bishop, But they did say we were looking for two 😉

We didnt sign that bod from Stoke you predicted tbf.

Paul Mullin.

That sounds like a fictional excuse, peddled out at the behest of the club, rather than reality

He was meant to be our big splurge signing at reportedly £1m+ and signing up for 3+ years. Seriously, given the background, if you are player or agent would you be signing up in the Championship at £5k a week, in my opinion, more nonsense.

No he didn't specifically say it. Just Said venkys don't want to pay big wages then Said Gueye Is only on 5k a week so losing his wage won't help much
