The only good thing about this toilet paper is the Riverside bit on the back. If we get yellow away kits (used toilet paper) the smarter bookmakers will drops our odds for going back down considerably.

True, but a highly unlikely scenario when you factor everything in and I really don't feel like typing out the 3 paragraphs that would cover all that. Translation: I stand by my statement.

If some club makes a bid for him that we find acceptable, Barcelona has the right to match that offer and take him back. There is no set fee that allows Barcelona to take him back whenever they want. This prevents Barcelona from dealing with the dreaded scenario of having given up too early on a big star who then ends up with ManU, Inter, etc.... or worst of all for them: Real. The clause protects them from that. In other words: If he ends up a big superstar, the only way he lines up against Barca is with Rovers in the Champions League. Sounds good to me.

There's no fee set. Just a "right of first refusal" clause. Now everybody relax.

The photo towards the bottom of the article is particularly funny if you look closely enough......

I was not referring to whether or not the signatures were real. I give you more credit than that. Just list, exactly, the brand, style and any specific print on the ball. (a picture or 2 would help) If it was the brand & style of match ball used by the FAPL that year it would increase the retail cost of the ball by £100 - £200.

Some of that depends on what kind of ball it is. Is it an actual match ball or some piece of junk you could buy at Rover the Moon for £5?

Pathetically sad. But let's try to remember he scored 52 goals in 103 starts (+37 subs) for us. OK? Please refrain from the usual pubescent volatility that pervades this forum. All you're doing is beating a dead horse and it's classless behavior.

Well, thank you for keeping us updated.

Pictures?

I've wondered the same thing.

Absolutely 100% correct Top. I only wish he understood that himself. He would be one hell of an asset under those circumstances.

ONLY ROVERS RELATED ITEMS. Please.

An idea I've heard many times from many persons over the years; it would be nice if it ever got implemented. We'd have a reason to play in the otherwise stupid competition. Kudos to Eddie for bringing it up on this board.

Just wanted to mention that the eBay seller "americanslave9023" is now selling those Burnley discs to US addresses. But remember that unless you have a multi-format DVD player, the only place you will be able to play it is your computer.

Look back 1 page for my post.

Yes, PAL to NTSC. But computers with DVD players (all of them nowadays of course) can be set to handle either in about 20 seconds.

Normally I would think this is a gray area, but since this whole thread is links to League action being thrown on Youtube, what the hell? Click here Edit: Wanted to mention he's now selling to US addresses.

My favorite Souness moment. Anybody have that photo from the celebration?

Regulations of the UEFA Champions League Rule 17.07 Excluding the three rounds of the UEFA Intertoto Cup and the UEFA Super Cup, and subject to paragraph 17.18 below, a player may not play UEFA club competition matches for more than one competing club in the course of the same season. A substitute player who is not fielded is entitled to play for another club competing in the same season’s UEFA club competitions, provided that he is registered with the UEFA administration in accordance with the present Regulations. Rule 17.17 For all matches from the start of the first knockout round, a club may register a maximum of three new eligible players for the remaining matches in the current competition. Such registration must be completed by 1 February 2008 at the latest. This deadline cannot be extended. Rule 17.18 One player from the above quota of three who has played UEFA club competition matches for another competing club in the current season may exceptionally be registered, provided that the player has not been fielded: − in the same competition for another club − for another club that is currently in the same competition. In other words; nobody could play him in the CL until the round of 16 if he plays on Thursday.

This will all be over a week from tomorrow when he becomes cup-tied for European competitions.

The only time he scored more than 10 goals in a Premier League season was with us.

Look up 3, 4 or 5 posts (from this one) and read closely there Jamie.

He might have gone, but we'd have gotten our price. In this market; that's "a wadge north of £20 million" as philipl puts it. It's too bad tomorrow doesn't cup-tie him. We'll have to wait for 2nd Round Qualifying in the UEFA Cup for that.
