Jemal Johnson is one of the quickest, fastest and skillfulled player in the premiership!! Well done scoring! May it continue long!! Great rovers!

I think that we will play a 4-5-1 formation against Bolton with this starting lineup due to Dickovs suspension: Friedel Neill, Todd, Mokoena, Johansson Emerton, Savage, Ferguson, Pedersen Thompson Bothroyd/Stead/Gallacher/Jansen (not sure who will get to start of the strikers but I think Stead and Bothroyd has the most chance because of their aeral presence.) wATch this space !!

I think he'll be playing at Rangers at that stage!

Ferguson hasn't played so well since he signed. Hasn't scored so many goals so I think we'll benefit from Savage who really wants to play for Hughes. And we will probably buy a striker too!

I said it before and I say it again....Dickov is overrated and Stead and Gally are to unmature for premiership. Dickov may have scored against Bolton but thats against a lowly side. He miss to much chances in the games. Cole would have put them away. Look he scored 2 goals for Fulham today. Sorry but we must get into the market this week and buy new strikers. We'll get £1m from the Beattie sale. Savage is not a necessary to buy, he was poor today against Newcastle. We got Mokoena as a great midfelder besides Ferguson and give Morten Pedersen a chance... He can't be so bad as Reid was today?? Come on Hughes, do some wise things.

Hi all...looking forward for tomorrows game against Bolton. Here's my starting eleven: Friedel Neill Todd Johansson or Amoruso if fit Gray (not matteo, shame that Spector isn't ready until 1st january i'd pick him) Emerton Thompson Ferguson Pedersen (Reid is injured and we need to try something new, give the lad a chance) Stead (looked lively, just need to score, if he fails after 60mins put on Gally) Dickov Subs: Matteo or McEvely Gallacher Flitcroft Jemal Johnson (former Man UTD lad) Enckelman looking forward for the signings of Mokoena and probably Hartson. what do you say?

I would play like this against Everton on saturday: Friedel Neill, Todd, Johansson, Gray Emerton, Reid/Douglas, Ferguson, Pedersen Stead, Gallacher/Bothroyd Bench: Dickov (too small and miss sitters) the other two Enckelman why not Sergio Peter or Jemal Johnson. Out of bench: Matteo (still crap when he comes up against a good side, palace were poor) Jansen (still injured)

27 year old New Zeeland captain Ryan Nelson who currently plays for DC United in the MSL is set to sign for rovers afte impressing in trials at the club. also: Mokoena close to Blackburn move Tue, 14 Dec 2004 Bafana Bafana defender Aaron Mokoena's proposed move to English Premiership side Blackburn Rovers looks set to go ahead. The South African national team captain had trials with Rovers last week and it has been reported that the club were impressed with him and are keen to sign the player. The two clubs are currently in advanced talks over a £600 000 deal for the classy central defender. Mokoena is currently playing in Belgium for Racing Genk, after having moved from another Belgium club, Germinal Beerschot. The 24-year old has also been on the books of Jomo Cosmos, Bayer Leverkusen and Ajax Amsterdam.

sell Ferguson, he sinät showing anything...Brad is far better and more important. Fergy dwells to much with the ball. Can we get £10m for him then grab it fast! A replacemnet for Short is also needed soon!

Hey Why the fu** is Matteo and Flitcroft playing??? And where is Gray and Pedersen??? What is Hughes doing.... if we loose today we can surely criticise his coaching!!! Matteo is crap.......so crap crap crap.. And Short is getting too slow and old now. We should have started with this side: Friedel Neill, Todd, Nils-Eric, Gray Emerton, Ferguson, Pedersen, Reid Stead or Gally, Bothroyd Dickov is annoying me at the moment....he miss sitters... Thompson isn't match fit enough but good to throw on in the last 20 min. Thanks for listening....hope Im wrong today about the team and that the players getting their chance shines.

Martin O'Neill at Celtic has to be my obvious choice as manager, heard that he needs a new challenge!! read this: http://rangers.openfootball.co.uk/article....=3729&newsnow=1

looks like we won't get any players with souness as he is regarded to be hard to work with, took this from a fulham website:

ok Lee, sorry.

[image removed as it is already on the appropriate thread] A picture on Volpato on his trial game with rovers! (can be found on the mystery trialist thread - RICKY)

Nissa and Amoruso seems to play the full game!! Short the only player not to get on.

48 mins: Goal for Rovers, Gresko puts in a cross from the left, and a Prague defender tries to remove Stead's shirt for him. De Pedro cooly slots home from the penalty spot. Rovers 1 Bohemians Prague 0

According to admin at the official site it seems that Vratty Gresko is playing really well in Germany so now it may be a full fight for the left back position between Vratty, Gray and McEvely!!! NICE!! Also Nissa is pushing for a starting place in the back four.

Noooooooooooooooooooooooooo why? He just wan't to try him on that position, it's what the pre season games is all about.

Is all the other players on the bench or will someone not play today?

Nice to see Nissa playing so much in the pre season games, maybe it could build up the young back's self confidence and he may be a hit this season! Lets hope we've got a real gem in him!

From an interview with Andy Cole on Fulham official website: SO THERE'S STILL PLENTY IN THE TANK? Absolutely. I'm 32 but there's a lot of fire in my stomach. I had a difficult two years at Blackburn but as a result of that I've got a lot of desire. It's when that desire burns out that I've got to call it quits, but that's a long way off. I'm still loving my football and I still want to score goals. Bullocks.... he didn't have the desire when he played for us....good he got rid.

I think youre putting so much effort into trying to make sensible points all you are managing to do is create humour. For one thing Djorkaeff has left Bolton, but I'm pleased DePedro likes to challenge players and shoot ! Well Djorkaeff hasn't left according to their official website...

Yes but according to Souness we now have a great team spirit and probably Bolton had that last year and a bit of lady luck in some games but if we can have the same spirit and luck we may well end the season on a high. I've got great feelings about it! We now have a whole team to replace the first team, 2 staring elevens who seems to be good and with one or two extensions now when Cole, Yorke and Todd has left we may be a force this season.

It's my own views. What do you believe?

I believe both Jansen and Gally are better strikers.
