Gareth Southgate masterclass. Apologies if already posted but worth a repeat viewing. -
Blackburn Rovers Women
philipl replied to Proudtobeblue&white's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
Swag salary should go to the women. Would be a big improvement all round. -
Southgate is doubly screwing Rovers over. We are not getting the transfer bonus for Adam playing in a competitive England game. And in a squad screaming out for a forward threader of passes through the middle, Southgate is sending the message Adam is not good enough and is wrecking his onward transfer value from Palace...

Every club that has a player in the England squad has a rescue job after this tournament. Every player will need restoring to the level and style of play they are capable of. -

England were the most boring team in the most boring Group. Wharton to come on as 115th minute sub and it goes to penalties... -
We are making a big thing of playing newly promoted sides at the season start. 3 in the first 4 games.

I am.just hoping the media interest in Adam is being orchestrated so there is no surprise when he is picked. Either 1m or 2m kerchang for Rovers depending on who you believe if he does play in an England competitive game.

Rovers will end up getting close to 40m for Adam when the 15% profit on sale kicks in. Unlike us, Palace will handle the sale properly. Yes I am saying he will go for 100m.

Chelsea are the new Watford

Good to see Leeds have won an away day at Ewood next season.

Have inside that Everton were absolutely gutted they could n't make a move for Adam because of their local difficulties.

Sam Szmodics-Your thoughts?

Glad this thread is quiet. -
I really thought it was a wind up when I read about Kompany and Bayern.

Absolutely delighted for Adam and feel privileged to have seen him playing at Rovers. From what I am aware, Adam has triggered the additional payments in the transfer now so Palace will pay GBP23m for him. There is a 15% of profit clause on him so I think we can be reasonably certain that another GBP10m will come our way and potentially pretty soon. Palace are sure to demand close to GBP100m. Newcastle are at their FFP limit so could not bid. Everton desperately wanted him but are totally screwed. By going to Palace he joined a club on the up (4 in the England squad plus almost certainly Mateta will be getting international recognition) AND was certain of starting which wouldn't have been the case at Newcastle. Adam's first game for Palace included a few mistakes but since then he has looked far more at home in the Premier League than ever he did playing for us. Who would have credited him being statistically the number 1 midfielder in the Prem for tackles and interceptions? But that is where he is. Huge credit. to JDT and t6he coaching team at Rovers for that. Finally, had he stayed at Ewood, would he be in the England squad? PS I believe there is a sell on for Kaminsky

His heart was always with Rovers. His enthusiasm for the club shone through every time I met him. Oh for that sort of passion and affinity in the direction of the club now.

So is this the week of Waggott's triumph?

I did a simple extrapolation of bottom half clubs' current form and added 3 points for each game left to play against Rotherham. 20 March going down with Rotherham were: Stoke 50 points Rovers 45 (Brum 12th on 60 and Huddersfield 16th on 55) 5 April going down with Rotherham: Huddersfield 48 on GD Sheffield Wednesday 46 (Brum 20th 48 on GD and Rovers 18th 52 pts) Actual end of season: Brum 50 points and Huddersfield 45 both down. Rovers 18th 53 points. So both Birmingham and Huddersfield fell away in form at the end and paid the price. Noticeable that 50 points was a relegation points total as far back as mid March. Rovers did better than simple extrapolation would have suggested we would do- those three late away wins saved us.
