Rovers Xtra, whoever it is, on the scoreboard in the race for the ITK of the summer award. (I know they didn’t break it but they broke it in English!)

The photo in colour is worse. He needs to get on the Guinness and Steak diet asap.

Unless it's silly money, purely out of spite, I could see us just flat out rejecting any bids made by Derby whilst JE is there.

Venky's wont care,

They will take anyone's filthy lucre if saves them sending funds over.

Just some sad lad who sits at home searching “Blackburn Rovers” on twitter all day so he can gain a few pennies from impressions. 

I admire his commitment to the transfer tittle-tattle cause

Every young lad in the uk has that hairstyle. I think they are pejoratively known as broccoli heads!

I thinks it's AI run that account.

They've probably already had the Premier League replica trophy sized up for melting down. Could probably keep the electricity on for another week.

I know I've jumped in on it too but poor lad, put yourself in his shoes. 

 

Just relegated, dream England move comes up. 

Fly to Manchester, new terminal, global city.

 

Jump into the car at the airport and steadily and steadily you leave it all behind you.

 

You arrive in Blackburn, it's drizzly.  Rudy Gestede of all people welcomes you.  Weird.  Wasn't he just about known for being a decent header of the ball?  Anyway, it's English football how exciting. 

You get sat down, introduced to the staff.  There's a man lurking in the background, no one really wants to talk about him or what he does.  You bump into him once and he immediately talks about your cost and value to the club.  He says next year we need to cut another 20% because of some house in Manchester. Oh well, must just be a finance guy.  I'm sure the fans will be more football focussed. 

 

You go onto twitter and the messageboard.  The main thing they're taking about? Oh, how ugly I look, how I look half deceased and how I look a little bit stoned...

 

How long did I sign for?

[roversfan99]

Seems to have snowballed from a bit ofna windup, although I think Bendoni is a fairly well known journalist.

We wouldnt pay the fee anyway, but hes crap.

[Tomphil2]

The lad will have rosy cheeks after an autumn and winter in Blackburn.

Welcome to the Rovers, Dion 🔵⚪️

Judge on what I see in Rovers and not before. Not going judge on a journalist report.  

Although if said journalist had been singing his praises, I'm sure you'd have been all over it.

Ah diddums.

I think doubling or tripling his salary should compensate for any hurt feelings.

What positions was it that RG said we were looking at?

Thought RW and CM were in there, assuming RB was as well?

[Rover1984]

Just get the feeling that latest purchases apart from Ohashi don’t fit in VI plans. De Neve signed for a fee when we’ve paid a fee for Kargbo in January. Throw Hedges in the mix that’s 3 for one spot. The latter well liked by the manager. Linked to Watford striker but can’t see it at that price but shows we are looking for a striker, with Fees already spent on Ohashi and Gueye. Think there could be a few shock sales this window 

[...]

Only just realised this Neve lad is a 3 year deal. 

Where's the sense in a contract of that length for someone who's never played in the championship. Big risk.

He’s cheap and he may have enough potential to be sold for a profit. That’s the only consideration for a development club with no ambition.
