roverandout Posted February 1, 2016 Posted February 1, 2016 How does your view fit with the widely-applauded win at Oxford and the 10-man resistance at Newport ? Are we placing our progress on two games against league 2 opposition? We certainly have low standards nowadays

1arC Posted February 1, 2016 Posted February 1, 2016 Sounds like it's nearly done and dusted... Really, where did you hear that?
davulsukur Posted February 1, 2016 Posted February 1, 2016 Sounds like it's nearly done and dusted... The gazette is doing a live deadline day, like the LT one, and 10mins ago they said Rhodes hadn't even arrived yet.
gumboots Posted February 1, 2016 Posted February 1, 2016 Sky Sports just announced that Rhodes is expected in Middlesbrough this afternoon after leaving Brockhall shortly after 9am this morning. Hell fire, either all the roads are blocked or he's walking it.Blubberhouses is closed
T J Hooker Posted February 1, 2016 Posted February 1, 2016 This really is leaving us no time to do proper fitness tests if we do make serious moves for anybody
RevidgeBlue Posted February 1, 2016 Posted February 1, 2016 Sky Sports just announced that Rhodes is expected in Middlesbrough this afternoon after leaving Brockhall shortly after 9am this morning. Hell fire, either all the roads are blocked or he's walking it. Transfer guy on Talks port just said "Not exactly travelling back up to Boro but a deal "could" happen."
Tyrone Shoelaces Posted February 1, 2016 Posted February 1, 2016 Blubberhouses is closed Plenty of Blubbering going on here though.
RevidgeBlue Posted February 1, 2016 Posted February 1, 2016 Like I said - He lacks pace. Bravo sir. Very good.
islander200 Posted February 1, 2016 Posted February 1, 2016 Hopefully everything has been agreed already and it's just a case of Rhodes putting pen to paper
1arC Posted February 1, 2016 Posted February 1, 2016 Transfer guy on Talks port just said "Not exactly travelling back up to Borough but a deal "could" happen." I am sure if everything was done on Saturday, a conversation could take place over the phone to sort this now. Why does he need to physical be there? Medical done, shown around the place, surely it is just a matter of revamping the terms?
Amo Posted February 1, 2016 Posted February 1, 2016 Are we placing our progress on two games against league 2 opposition? We certainly have low standards nowadays No, but those were two potential banana skins that we didn't slip on.
mhead Posted February 1, 2016 Posted February 1, 2016 Shelfie's office:" How do we connect the Solar panel to the Fax machine",says Shelfie. "But Mr Shelf...its raining outside"
philipl Posted February 1, 2016 Posted February 1, 2016 I am beyond caring. However, if Rhodes stays at Ewood he will have a prominent role to play in fighting relegation and I am confident he will play it.
roverandout Posted February 1, 2016 Posted February 1, 2016 Transfer guy on Talks port just said "Not exactly travelling back up to Boro but a deal "could" happen." Was he drunk?
AdamRochina Posted February 1, 2016 Posted February 1, 2016 People saying Rhodes isn't even travelling to boro. ,he's gone home and was told not to train today
RevidgeBlue Posted February 1, 2016 Posted February 1, 2016 I am sure if everything was done on Saturday, a conversation could take place over the phone to sort this now.

1arC Posted February 1, 2016 Posted February 1, 2016 Yes they made the point the medical had been done. I will be surprised if this doesn't happen now.
cmb211087 Posted February 1, 2016 Posted February 1, 2016 I got 7/1 on him staying earlier. Either Rovers get money or I do!!
BlueMonday Posted February 1, 2016 Posted February 1, 2016 Just to summarise: Jordan Rhodes was sent home from training without having his breakfast. He's travelling to Boro while he remains at home playing with his train. Following a climb down by Rhodes agent, he will not now demand a free pint of milk after training every day. He's expected to sign for new Club Middlesborough at 22:59:59 pm because Boro's Chairman can't stand people and wants to win the World Pranking Championship. Meanwhile back in the Sky Sports Studio, Jim White will continue to be a hyperactive annoying smug f@nny, with an incredibly irritating squeaky voice. Over in Pune no one from Venkys will be available for comment.

Why does he need to physical be there? Medical done, shown around the place, surely it is just a matter of revamping the terms? Probably just a matter of being there to actually sign the contract when/if the agents and finance people reach agreement. As we know faxes aren't too reliable.
davulsukur Posted February 1, 2016 Posted February 1, 2016 All Rhodes lead to Middlesbrough Ian Dennis BBC Radio 5 live senior football reporter Posted at15:48 "I'm led to believe it's £13m all in for Jordan Rhodes." That was on the bbc rolling news.
Claytons Left Boot Posted February 1, 2016 Posted February 1, 2016 Sky Sports just (again) announced he's expected in Middlesbrough this afternoon, so the Blubberhouses theory could be correct!
