Transfer Window - COMPLETE. Where’s Gregg?

Ah, shit, sorry! I didn't see that you're Norwegian. 😂 Apologies. Got up at 4.30 this morning, have to blame that I guess... -

That's wrong though. It's actually "krona", which is Swedish for crown. 🙂 -

Off injured? or off as in sold? 😉 -
Kit supplier and sponsor from 21/22
rickard replied to alex l's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
Initially I liked it (I always like when there is a bit of red in it), but the more I look the worse it gets in my opinion. Not reversed colors on the back, the strange collar, the god awful sponsor logo (looks like a failed art contribution by someone who tried to be "edgy") and the two tones of blue. A big no for me, but at least it's 1 million times better than burnley's, by default. -

still an improvment of some of the players we've had over the years... -

There are quite a few interesting players with expiring contracts in 2022 from Allsvenskan in Sweden. I'm not sure what the possibilities are of signing players from Sweden these days are. But I guess they would be familiar to JDT Some interesting ones in my opinion: Leo Bengtsson (24) - LW Jo-Inge Berget (31), Winger/Striker - Worked with JDT in Malmö Adam Carlén (22) CDM, 1,93 m, but with good feet and quite mobile. I'm sure there are more, but these are the ones I found at a quick glance. Not sure, as I said, if we would even be able to sign any of them with the existing rules. -

I'd love that, he was CLASS when he as on loan at Malmö FF. Granted the Swedish league is not at the top of European football (We're ranked 22nd atm I think). But still, class player. -

Never heard of him, but he does seem to work for one of the most tabloid like sites in Sweden, FotbollDirekt. I have not seen that rumour anywhere else in Sweden, so I don't think there is much to it, more than a lazy link to his former club, Ahmehodzic is a bit of a strange one imo, a few years ago he was valued around 8-10 million EUR. There are lots of rumours around him, seemed certain for Lazio if I remember correctly. In the end he leaves on loan to Bordeaux, with a clause of around EUR 4 million. I'm not sure what happened to be honest. Would probably be a great signing for us if he would consider this leauge, but I personally think he's got his mind set on bigger leauges, maybe PL, FR or Serie A. -

Who's the Swedish journalist? -
Jon Dahl Tomasson - Officially No Longer Our Head Coach
rickard replied to Tom's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
One thing that I noticed was in one article where they wrote that one of the things that were impressive with JDT was that he managed to win the swedish league two years in a row with a "limited budget'. Malmö has BY FAR the biggest budget in Sweden, I think at least twice compared to the next team. Not sure what that says, but in Sweden it was not a limited budget that he got to work with... Also, I'm a bit drunk and not entirely sure what I want to say with this post. 😂 -

Would still be cheaper than Vennegoor of Hesselink. 🙂 -
For what it's worth, he won the Swedish League two years in a row while managing Malmö FF. I don't particulary like Malmö FF, so I can't really say what the opinion of him was/is in that club. But they are (by far) the richest club in Sweden, and are more or less expected to win each year. But the job still had to be done. Personally I would rather have seen Knutsen, as I think he's a more exciting manager. But I still not disappointed with JDT.
-
Knutsen would be an interesting signing, if possible. What he and his team has done in Bodö/Glimt is very impressive. Would also be nice to not be in for one of the regular old dinosaurs that roam the market. However, is there any actual proof of interest or just speculation based on the DoF appointment?

Lucky he only got a yellow for that. Really bad tackle.
