Yorick Posted December 6, 2005 Posted December 6, 2005 Initially he was being treated for the wrong thing so it's no wonder he was out injured a lot. I wouldn't be surprised to see him play most of the games up until next summer and sneak a place in the world cup squad. 365327[/snapback] And maybe that would be the earliest time to consider his return, and also the time that we found that we could no longer afford him. Catch 22 eh?

mhead Posted December 6, 2005 Posted December 6, 2005 Last night there were 3 from our Youth Team finalists(Dunn,taylor and Johnson) With Duff and Beattie they have all made the Premiership. Bring Dunn and Beattie back in 2006/7. Also another rabid Rovers supporter plays for QPR....Gareth Ainsworth. Don't forget to give him a good welcome.
vinny Posted December 6, 2005 Posted December 6, 2005 we should offer birmingham £3 million for Dunn ! that would really pi$$ Bruce off. Do a Savage on him all over again
American Posted December 6, 2005 Posted December 6, 2005 I think he'd be laughing his butt off if we offered that for Dunn. He'd probably snap it up in an instant.
all you need is duff Posted December 6, 2005 Posted December 6, 2005 In a 4-4-2 formation, Dunn and Mokoena could end up a very effective central midfield pairing.
SIMON GARNERS 194 Posted December 6, 2005 Posted December 6, 2005 No motivation,disinterested,physically meek and prone to injury...David Dunn. NO THANKS.
blue phil Posted December 6, 2005 Posted December 6, 2005 we should offer birmingham £3 million for Dunn ! that would really pi$$ Bruce off. Do a Savage on him all over again 365402[/snapback] If we actually paid anything approaching that at the moment we'd be stupid considering the amount of games he plays . If he played every game well to the end of this season then £2 million tops might just be in order . Personally I'll never be convinced by Dunn - he's had his chances and made nothing of them . Anyone who thinks his re-signing would add anything to the attendance is badly misjudging the mood of todays' floating footy fans .
92er Posted December 6, 2005 Posted December 6, 2005 Last night there were 3 from our Youth Team finalists(Dunn,taylor and Johnson) I think Damien Johnson was a year older than the others and did not appear in the final. I think he was in the previous year's semi-final when we lost to Crystal Palace.
Cocker Posted December 7, 2005 Posted December 7, 2005 (edited) I was a MASSIVE fan of johnson (more than duffer at the time - what a fool) he then went to brum and on the rare occation that I came accross, I came to rovers v brum. The little idiot stuck two fingers up to the rovers faitfull who supported him through many years - I (as a fan of his) couldnt beleive it. What a nob - nuff said I AM A HUUUUUUGE FAN OF DUNN THOUGH Edited December 7, 2005 by Cocker
colin Posted December 7, 2005 Posted December 7, 2005 This is turning slushy and sentimental. 365309[/snapback] Indeed it is Yorick, indeed it is....... There are some of us who are hopelessly slushy & sentimental though. Just on footballing terms I really would like Dunn to return if only for Tugay to coach him for a year on how to pass a ball and how to hit a volley from a corner. .....and then Colin woke up........

Wezz Posted December 8, 2005 Posted December 8, 2005 would love to see dunny back at the rovers at least when he played he was 101% every game and lets admit it he was forced out of the club because of souness long story cut short my grandad knows his my brother knows dunny and he even said himself he didnt want to leave but thats what he had to do because there was no chance of him ever playing for rovers again whilst souness was incharge
FourLaneBlue Posted December 9, 2005 Posted December 9, 2005 When Dunn was here there were constant 'lazy' and 'fat' jibes from fans. Now he has left he's turned into Colin Hendry in terms o effort. Dunn - good player and a fan but too injury prone to be spending millions on surely?
Flopsy Posted December 9, 2005 Posted December 9, 2005 at least when he played he was 101% every game and lets admit it he was forced out of the club because of souness 365716[/snapback] Did he ######- he was good in fits and starts and at other times he was a showboating useless fat lump of disinterested nightclubing beer drinking injured hamstrings playboy (his hamstrings were shagged at Birmingham as well so that cant be blamed on Souness) 5.5million was a great deal and loads of money for someone whos played about 20 games since he's left Rovers. I remember when he left that most people were glad to see him go
Jan Posted December 9, 2005 Posted December 9, 2005 When he left, most people thought Sourpuss was a good manager. They were wrong there too.
Flopsy Posted December 9, 2005 Posted December 9, 2005 yawn promotion, Worthington cup, and 6th place and whether your blinkered eye sight will let you see or not Dunn was a showboating useless fat lump of disinterested nightclubing beer drinking injured hamstrings playboy who if he actually cared about the club would have sorted his act out and tried harder. Instead he ran off when he got an offer and has played no football since.
Ozz Posted December 9, 2005 Posted December 9, 2005 Dunn was a showboating useless fat lump of disinterested nightclubing beer drinking injured hamstrings playboy who if he actually cared about the club would have sorted his act out and tried harder. 365919[/snapback] Don`t sit on the fence Flopsy, say how you really feel.
Billy Castell Posted December 9, 2005 Posted December 9, 2005 The sentimental part of me would be interested in a move, but the hard nosed realist would urge extreme caution. He may still be a 'pie boy', and his injury record is not fantastic. Wait and see.
juggalo_rover Posted December 10, 2005 Posted December 10, 2005 I'm not too sure if we should bring hmi in or not I have faith is Hughes to making the right decision
Yorick Posted December 10, 2005 Posted December 10, 2005 I'm not too sure if we should bring hmi in or not I have faith is Hughes to making the right decision 366040[/snapback] Cant see hughes falling for the old prodigal son routine. But then again he was one himself once.
mattyc2422 Posted December 10, 2005 Posted December 10, 2005 He'd probably excel in our hard-nosed lineup. And cos Souey is gorn.
steven Posted December 15, 2005 Posted December 15, 2005 Don`t sit on the fence Flopsy, say how you really feel. 365921[/snapback] He did like to showboat, but I think that given half a chance he'd be back here in a shot. He'd be a great replacement for when Tugay hangs up his boots (which surely has to be at the end of this season)
Yorick Posted December 16, 2005 Posted December 16, 2005 He'd be a great replacement for when Tugay hangs up his boots (which surely has to be at the end of this season) 367229[/snapback] There's more in him yet imo. Reduced salary, hard work in training and fewer games should see him stick around for a while longer.
Flopsy Posted December 16, 2005 Posted December 16, 2005 totaly agree but to say that it was a disgrace to let him leave is myopic at best
