Shearer. By far and away the best I've ever seen for Rovers.

I don't think we'll be doing any swap deals, that would probably be too difficult to manage within the next 24 hours anyway. If we get Bellamy, it will be with cash.

Well I think I won't be posting for a bit...

Yeah but you can't really count me as a reliable source can you...

This should be on the transfer topic really I suppose but Sky are reporting Hughes Keen on Carew Well that would be good for us I think, it also has him saying the only way we'd bring in a striker would be on a loan deal, which is obviously relevant to this thread. We all know not to read too much into what the management at BRFC say in regards to transfers, but if it is true, then that puts pay to the idea of Bellamy coming here for 6 million.

Lower division team at ewood while other premiership teams play each other. If the big three could come up against each other it would be great. Manchester United v Chelsea Arsenal v Newcastle Blackburn v Burnley That would suit me down to the ground.

I think with them it would be an hourly one. We could probably now include me as a topic haha. 6 million and he's your man, why don't you just stump up the cash and be off with him? We all know you have it after the boumsong deal.

What a creep, no need at all for that.

I would certainly have him in the squad, and depending how he has dealt with all this and is being in training then I might play him. Really I don't think we know enough to be able to judge.

Old Roman doesn't want to pay them off either, the club now has to "run as a business". Well I'm sure this is all just a nice story being created for the media, however, if it is true, Chelsea could really be in trouble.

Im only a part-timer I do admit. I've tried talking to Eurostar and getting them to set up a train straight to Blackburn from my local station...so far they just aren't having it...but I'll keep trying.

Especially when followed by Chelsea, the team everyone would love to see.

Just a question that I just thought of...who has been our captain while Ferguson has been out? I didn't take notice while watching either of our past games, not really thought about it until now.

And I had that small thing known as the Channel as well as most of England in my way, I do understand though that taking the 12 or so hours it would have taken me to drive to Ewood Park at great expense would have been worth it to watch us play Colchester.

I'd love to get Burnley. Avoid premiership opposition for as long as possible and hope that they knock each other out.

Though that may be a supporters website, the article was written by someone who writes for the Evening Chronicle. I'm not saying that means its true, just wanted to point that out.

He's so exciting that it causes spontaneous orgasms...quite a talent...the ladies must love him.

If we win, I don't care, teams won't like us when we start winning anyway...haha

You disliking him is one thing, I would understand that, but not wanting a player because opposition supporters would dislike him is totally different.

Well considering we have been quite solid at the back recently and I don't think Colchester are exactly lethal going forward now that we are 3 up I think it's probably quite likely, but I don't really care, through to the next round and I'll be happy.

Who cares if people hate him, he is better than anything we have at the moment in that area, and that is good enough for me. Not many like Todd, but I'm glad we have him, same goes for Dickov. If he can fit into the team, and plays like he can, then I don't care what other supporters think of him.

I don't think 11k is a record low for Rovers . I'm actually surprised there are that many there. Would have expected it to be somewhere around the 8/9k mark.

Ferguson out for 6 million and Bellamy in for the same fee, after all that has gone on during January I think I would be quite pleased with that. We probably have adequate cover for midfield to make do for the rest of the season, but really need the fire power up front. I do feel however though, if we have put in a bid, it is possible that the board have backed Hughes and simply come up with the cash. It would surprise me if we were going to get into this having to rely on Rangers to come in with an improved offer. I doubt we will bid 6 million, but if we have, I think Ferguson will still be staying at Ewood Park.

No no...I meant since joining us. Since he has arrived here all he has really talked about is how happy he is to be away from you lot. I don't mind if he finishes his career here or not, as a result of his age though I suppose he will be finishing his top class career at Ewood Park.

3-0...Matteo
