thenodrog Posted January 24, 2008 Share Posted January 24, 2008 I wonder how he would look in claret and blue? He'd be alright with Lucas to look after him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Man City are about to spend more money they don't really have, Fulham are throwing it around to avoid the drop. Tottenham will have a real go in the next few days. Let's not forget that your trustees DO have a lot of money, they are not short of a quid, they just don't seem to want to spend it on football. The gamble for Rovers right now is how much to spend to make a difference... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nicko Posted January 24, 2008 Share Posted January 24, 2008 Why do you say Man City have no money? Shinawatra has done most of his deals so far on the never-never. He only had a certain amount to spend when he arrived. As yet, the rest of his 'gains' are locked up back in Thailand. So Man City are having to look at creative deals just now, like signing players and paying for them in stages. Their interest in Sevilla's Luis Fabiano is interesting as they might be helped out in the deal by the player's owners accepting a payment for him down the line - in exchange for the hope that he is sold on again. We live in a strange football world. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rovermatt Posted January 24, 2008 Share Posted January 24, 2008 PLEASE Either learn to punctuate, or stop posting. This is unreadable drivel. He's hardly the first. Or indeed the last. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
b12_simon Posted January 24, 2008 Share Posted January 24, 2008 He's always been the wrong shape for a top keeper. He has a bigger arse than Tommy Lawrence ..... the original flying pig. I can't believe I'm replying to a post about keepers' arses but... ...what about Peter Schmeichael? Arse the size of Kent, best keeper since Shilts!

broadsword Posted January 24, 2008 Share Posted January 24, 2008 I honestly can't read it, it's the single paragraph that does for me. Although I've just noticed there doesn't seem to be a full-stop or comma. I can't read stuff like that it makes me feel a bit ill Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Summarise: Young players = Win nothing Amdy Faye = Probably bad but give him a chance No use for new rightback, need for midfield but not Koumas New left winger as Gamst been bad, when is Peter back??

Eddie Posted January 24, 2008 Share Posted January 24, 2008 Have to say, if Zokora is for sale then we could do a lot worse. I know he hasn't impressed in England, but he's a good player. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nicko Posted January 24, 2008 Share Posted January 24, 2008 nicko, by your sources how has amdy faye been doing in training..i know first day you said impressive-but that was inside... Should know today. I have a sneaky feeling this will happen in the current climate. The squad will be one man down while Nelsen is out, so Emerton may have to concentrate on playing right back with Ooijer back to his better position at centre half.

nicko Posted January 24, 2008 Share Posted January 24, 2008 It seems Ryan Nelsen is injured... http://www.thisisblackburn.co.uk/display.var.1990718.0..php Sadly I think it is six to eight weeks and not two. The main thing is it has to be sorted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mozzer Posted January 24, 2008 Share Posted January 24, 2008 so will it be a loan deal with a view to a permanant transfer?? or are we just getting him in, to keep the numbers up.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The main thing is it has to be sorted. I'm worried about this. Sounds like something that could end his professional career, to me. Hope not.

If he pulls up trees then it could become more. But one step at a time right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We live in a strange football world. The football world reflects the rest of our country. Where everything is bought on the never never. The inhabitants on these sceptered isle hold a debt that would sink a ship. A debt larger than that of the entire continent of South America.

Lurid Coat Posted January 24, 2008 Share Posted January 24, 2008 The squad will be one man down while Nelsen is out, so Emerton may have to concentrate on playing right back with Ooijer back to his better position at centre half. Which might be a blessing in disguise for us, actually.. I hate to say it, but Nelsen has been pretty bad for us after returning from his previous injury.

philipl Posted January 24, 2008 Share Posted January 24, 2008 Rovers were sorting out how they paid for players back in 2005/6- quoting myself: "However, there is a dramatic increase in net current liabilities from £13.7m in 2004/5 to £20m in 2005/6. Interestingly a lot of this is down to Rovers being very smart in their transfer payment terms. Fees receivable have dropped from £6m to £1.6m whilst transfer fees payable in over one year's time have increased from £866K to £2.25m." This movement in the balances on the fees collected as opposed to fees yet to be paid helped the club's cash position dramatically that year but of course was a once off. Another reason why there are no more backs of settees now we are in 2007/8. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

joey_big_nose Posted January 24, 2008 Share Posted January 24, 2008 If Walcott is going out on loan I woul dbe suprised if we didn't have a look. We need pace, he is one of the fastest in the business. Our Arsenal connections have to do us favours on that front too. The worry is he has no scoring record at all, but then we are hardly choosing at the moment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
