Agree. What I think is most likely is it's boils down to a matter of face and not wanting to admit they have made stupid decisions both in acquiring us and they have been fooled by charlatans along the way. We are probably one of the many subsidiaries in their group and the losses are not affecting their overall group profitability too much thus they treat it as a "out of sight, out of mind" thingy and is apathetic towards the investment rather than some grand sinister plan.

Was never going to happen, it's not like we are a CAT 3 academy - any club who wants him might as well keep him in our academy until the summer and just get him for free.

To be fair, Nixon reckons we're putting in a bid for Danny Cardamarteri. Should be able to meet the valuation on him. I'm not against it, even though his goalscoring record is quite bad, and I would much prefer it if we went back for Yakubu.

Cadamarteris goal scoring record is very poor, I don’t see how he’s going to shoot us to safety when he has 2 in 29 this season. I really hope this is along with another striker but I think we all know that’s not the case .

Looking forward to the OWS fluff piece on returning players as ‘like new signings’ in lieu of actual new signings

If Cadamarteri is the signing then that sums us up in a nutshell - has no goal scoring experience at any level really and our need is for goals - shocking if true

Isn't that a plan?

Well if there is a plan it's fucked if the best we can do is sign Cadamateri, whos essentially slightly younger than Leonard but a less impressive track record....make it make sense.

There’s clearly no plan - the one they had at the end of December hasn’t worked and they’re going back for players previously of interest.

Cheap Sheff wed are even more skint than Rovers

Cadamarteri leads the line in a poor Sheff W. team. At £1m he's worth a punt imo, and hopefully we can get his goal output ratio up. He's not too dissimilar to Ohashi in that he's a hard-working player that will run all day, but certainly not score all day, but mixed with Gudjohnsen he would probably do well. If he was that highly rated, he would've moved on a long time ago, considering the situation the Owls find themselves in. We still need players who can contribute with goals now, over to you Rudy.

Think we tried to sell him to the highest bidder but there weren't any this window.

Am I missing something with Cadamateri? Seems to always be linked with moves away but based on what? His stats have never been prolific at any level, granted he's only 20 still. His injury record looks poor. Or is it simply a case of Sheff Weds are skint, who's left to take that can kick a ball?

The Clash - I'm So Bored with the USA

Well that prediction certainly is mental.

Lose this and Ish has to be binned. Need someone to motivate the players with a new manager bounce. I’d even take Rowett

Aye, a lot of the article rang true, and I could guess who most of the people they didn't name are, but that part was clearly cobblers. Clubs don't call off games unless they want penalising by the league. Referees decide if it goes ahead. I'd imagine the police can too potentially, but certainly not club officials.

Not so sure about cadameteri. He’ll be good for the future there’s no doubt about that, but now we need someone proven which we won’t as is always the case. Seems like we are planning for relegation.

We were apparently in for Jorgensen in the summer - are we just using the same old list?

Cool, so that's...2 less goals and 2 more assists than the defensive midfielder we were just talking about that we are apparently looking at.

Nixon in 2 days time ‘exclusive’ Cadamerteri deal a no go

Nixon reckons we're putting in another bid for Bailey Cadamarteri

Best post of the night

I disagree with that, as many people go to Ewood for many reasons and the owners are not one of them. We need minor protest sustained over a long period for me, get our plight back in the media, then mass boycotts per games if possible. I speak to lots of people from across the footballing spectrum and the response to me being a Rovers fan is always: ’Are you still owned by the chicken lot’ - Oh yes!!
