its not the pushing that i'm criticising savage for, its the manor in which he does it.

I'm confused! Your saying you don't mind him pushing, it's the manor in which he does it!!! How should he do it then?

When Mark next visits Ewood to support Chelsea next season (with free tickets), he will able to see a marked difference in Savage. The lads only played 3 competitive games since sitting out for a spell at Birmingham, plus Hughes had a game plan to break up Chelsea's free flowing football. It wasn't always pretty, but it was damn effective and who better equipped than Savage. Once Rovers are safe then there will be time for Savage to show there is more to his game.

I see some possible outcomes from all this:

1. We sell Ferguson and don't get anyone in

2. We sell Ferguson and sign Bellamy for £6m

3. We sell Ferguson and sign a loan deal with Bellamy

4. We keep Ferguson and sign a loan deal with Bellamy

5. We keep Ferguson and don't get Bellamy or anyone else

6. We keep Ferguson and sign some unknown lad (sokoto, or whatever)

Right now I would take any of 2, 3, 4, and 6

What would you prefer?

Terry, Duff & Henry!!!

Oh well, there goes July in my official Rovers calendar. I'll have to replace Ferguson with a picture of Robbie Savage for that month. Todd for captain!
