Berg - said it was his last season, Souness and JW made other plans because of this Dunn - didnt want to sign a new contract - had to sell! Duff - sad enough we couldnt afford to say no to £17m Sukur - did he ever sign a permanent deal? Anyway he wanted a ridiculous amount of wage As for Cole, I agree, I dont understand what Souness is thinking if he decides to get rid of him...

Its bad enough that Souness is forcing Cole to leave the club, but what is worse is that he is going for nothing and we are still going to pay some of his wages...who are we?! Leeds? I think its more to this than just the regular "papertalk", I also think Flitcroft will leave the club in the near future...(I'm sure Kamy would have confirmed this if he had the balls ...) Will be interesting to see if Souness has plans to sign more players this summer, or if he is happy with Dickov replacing Cole, which IMO is just laughable...

Exciting players: + Young players who has their whole future infront of them. They will always give a 100%, and are hungry to show that they can cope playing at the top level.. + Known quality players. Doesnt really matter how old they are, BUT you have to be able to praise what they are doing NOW (TODAY) and NOT what they did 2-3 years ago.. In other words, I dont consider De Pedro as an exciting player....on the other hand I was very excited about the signing of young Stead... I think he wants a name krislu. We can all say we want to spend millions on a young striker-but it aint gunna happen. So then, tell us what player to buy? Give me a minute, just have to boot up my CM-game first...

3 great wingers i can't think off one Vicente, Reyes, Joaquin, Extenerria....enough? Doesnt matter though, still think De Pedro aint going to offer us anything special...

What exactly do you mean by "an exciting signing"? Obviously a Spanish interntional winger who played in the Champions League last year does not excite you, so can you tell us what will? Some names to illustrate your point would be a good idea. Spanish interntional winger?! Not anymore, two years ago now! Im with RoverDrake on this one....hoping for some exciting news later this month...

Hope to see England vs Sweden and France vs Denmark in the two semi finals... Anyone fancy Sweden vs Denmark in the final?!

Spot on!

WTF?! Feel sorry for the cheating @#/?s of Italy?! Italy was NOT good enough to go through, end of story!!

Great game, great result! Portugal next, will be a tough one for ya...

Not to sure about De Pedro....a bit on the slow side for my likeing. But lets give him a chance before we slag him off shall we...

I understand that people aint showing up to watch us play Rosenborg, Spartak Moscow, Legia Warsaw, Trelleborg, Gençlerbirligi etc... If we can just get past the first couple of games in the UEFA cup, then I'm sure it would be a sellout against teams like Inter, Marseille, Valencia etc..

Who did we play in the CL then? Rosenborg, Panantinakos and Spartak Moskov I seem to recall.... Didnt we play Celtic in the UEFA cup just recently? I'm sure there were more than 13 000 on that one...

02/03 : McEveley was introduced, and made an impact 03/04 : Gallagher and Stead, stars in the making 04/05 : Please give Donnelly a chance at PL football... 05/06 : "The 23man squad for the World Cup in Germany includes Blackburn stars Ciaran Donnelly and Jonathan Stead..."

Forget about Nissa! I bet he will be our fourth choice behind the likes of Short, Amo and Matteo/Todd next season.. BTW I'm not to happy about us signing Matteo....but I guess we cant attract anyone else..

The first or the second offer? We did go back with an improved offer I believe, and I haven't heard that Tromsø has rejected it yet.. Is this the CD we are after?? please god let it be.. Sign him up Souney..!

Iran - Iraq....poteto potato... And yes, I dont think Gamst Pedersen will ever be as good as damien. But thats not really the point, the point is that we need a player who can put in good performances on that left side NEXT season, not the season after that or sometime in the "future"... IMO Gamst Pedersen is to much of a gamle if the price tag is £2.5m...

Damien Duff born 03.02 - 1979 Morten Gamst Pedersen born 08.09 - 1981 Are the years shorter in Iraq Bobby, or are you talking dog years here? One more thing! Why are you saying that he can be as good as Duff, and at the same time you are saying that we have to be realistic ?! Q: Where was Duff 2years ago?! A: He was setting the world alight in the World Cup, with some brilliant WORLDCLASS performances..

Who would you prefer in that position then Krislu? Personally I think Gamst is more than ready. Ok, I said the same thing about Andresen and I still think he would have come good if given more time in central midfield. Gamst has qualities that rovers missed on the left side this season. Most important. He can take someone on, score goals and he can deliver excellent crosses with both his right and left foot. Maybe I was a bit harsh in my demands regarding young Gamst Pedersen, but still I do not think he is worth £2.5m in todays transfer marked...

I have never said that he is rubbish, he had an awful match agains Brann yesterday, but the guy still still has potential to be a very good player.. If you read my previous posts you will se that I'm about the only norwegian on this MB who is a bit worried about us spending alot of money on Gamst Pedersen... IMO we need a player who can go straight into our starting XI and perform from day one, and I'm not to sure Gamst Pedersen can do that..

Well, he is NOT worth it..! BTW we beat you 1-0 yesterday..

looks like he has his eyes on a move to rovers Might look like he has got a big head thats for sure! I know we shouldn't judge a player based on one performance, but I seriously doubt that Gamst Pedersen is the right man for Blackburn Rovers. IMO we should go after a guy like Zenden instead, who is a proven player both in the PL and internationaly.... In any case, remember that Pedersen aint any new Duff. IMO he is a completely deffernt player than Damien...

Well well, I just came back from the match, and dear me Pedersen had an awful 90min!

I'm going to watch the game between Brann and Tromsø from the stands today, so you can expect a full match report regarding Gamst Pedersen at 20 O'clock..

According to Nettavisen.no Tromsø has set a price tag on Gamst Pedersen, £2.3m!
