No he didn't.

When asked about his Rovers future he said that you'd have to ask the manager or chairman but, as far as he was concerned, he's a Blackburn player and, unless he agrees a new deal towards the end of the season, he would leave at the end of his contract in the summer. So he basically repeated what we all already knew already.

He answered it very honestly I thought.

Well if that's what he said yesterday it's rubbish. He's trying to make it sound there like it's out of his control, he hasn't been offered a new deal and it's the club's doing.

There's been at least one new deal on the table for him since the summer, which to my knowledge hasn't been withdrawn, and he is refusing to sign one. It's nothing to do with the Club at all.

As for Wigan, our defenders will have to be a bit more resolute than they have been at times this season to contain Heskey but a very winnable fixture nonetheless.

Could have sworn we had another game first though. :huh:

That isnt what he said.

He said "If I don't agree a new deal"

Not if I am offered.....

tidy job on the preview roverite.

my predictions

rovers 1-0 scousers

rovers 4-0 boro

wigan 0-2 rovers

a few goals and some clean sheets to end what has been a well good year to be a rovers fan and to start of the new year in style by demolishing the pie eaters!!

I wish all Rovers fans could have shared my confidence.

i had the correct score jordan mate!! if the others go to plan then it's happy days in deed!!

Hopefully will go to this, trying to encourage a few others to go along as well. If not I'll be there on my tod, where's everyone drinking prior to game?

There is not much around the ground but there is a pub just up from the away end which is often full of Roverites. I have forgotten what it is called but you cannot miss it.

Straight along t'Cut then? Anybody with a narrow boat could provide one hell of a setting for an alighty awayday pissup to rival all others. Put me name down.

Cracking idea :D

Anyone else going on the train? Don't much fancy the idea of hanging about at Preston or Bolton stations on match day waiting for the train to Wigan on my tod. Be good to know there'll be other Roverites about.

yeah going on the train. I will be going via Manchester and there is one an hour which runds directly to Wigan. If not then you need to go via Bolton but that is only a few minutes wait and I believe Bolton are away to Liverpool.

Should be in Wigan for 11:30/12:00. Any of the usual charectors going? Scotty, Manc Blue?

For anyone else who's going on the train, l've been informed there'll be police on a few stops before, in and after wigan to escort us straight to the ground. That scuppers my hopes of a few shandy's at a local hostelry before the match :(

Cheers Jordan, Bolton is looking like the best change. Preston train station ain't the most inviting place for a Blackburner on the morning of a match day :ph34r:

North End are away on a long trip.

Ive never had any problems at Preston station, in full regalia. :)
