  1. Not really - opinion versus erroneous claim. The poster was trying to diss me with an erroneous claim. Seems like the Twitter post he referred to was a figment of his imagination.
  2. Thank you! One day after my post on here (20 July). I rest my case @roversfan99 !
  3. Struggling to find a Twitter post about the Netherlands friendly you said was posted days before my post? Think your estimate is as abysmal as the rubbish you post about me. For the benefit of other MB users and their enjoyment of this MB, can I suggest you park the personal and abusive vendetta you have for me.
  4. I agree. Other members must get p1ssed-off with their antics but I will not sit back and allow them to post rubbish about me and make cretinous comments.
  5. and a fair part of what I post turns out to be correct! What is the infamous Nicko's 'hit' record!? Name me a sporting journalist with even a 70% 'hit' record regarding manager and player movements? Jackson is our local journalist and I think you could count on one hand his exclusives since being in post. I said atm (at the moment) Derby were leading the way - I stand by that but as I have already pointed out, the Hackney money for Middlesbrough was a subsequent game changer. Is that so difficult for you to grasp and understand!? I don't profess to be an ITK. I merely post in good faith. If I hear something and I think it can be shared on a MB then I do - is that not part of what this MB is about! IF the game in the Netherlands had been posted on Twitter days before I posted then why did the likes of you, Chaddy or any other poster who uses Twitter on this MB not post about it - very unusual!?!? I posted about the Netherlands game on 20th July - copy and paste the Twitter post you claim (presumably Twitter posts are date stamped) to have seen "days before you (meaning my post) said". A common tactic of yours in trying to runbbish what I post - 'I've seen it elsewhere', how feckin sad. "Even if you arent on there, whoever told you probably saw it on there". How many feckin times do I need to say, I am not part of the Twatterati. For your information, I was told about the arranged match by a Rovers' employee.
  6. I am not going to sit back and let you post rubbish about me. It doesn't bother me if he goes to either Derby or Middlesbrough so I have nothing to accept. The only thing I accept is he wont be a Rover by the end of this week. Derby haven't put another bid in? How would you know that? I stand by what I posted on Monday morning - at that point, I was told Derby were leading the way and Brittain would be gone by the end of the week - that does not suggest to me that Derby have done nothing since making their first bid some 3 weeks ago!!! As for Brittain signing a new contract - I posted what I was told 3 days before the Stanley game ie Rovers would announce Brittain's new contract and two new signings before the Stanley game. So what happened before the Stanley game - Middlesbrough made their play for Brittain and we are told a medical issue with Baradji had been found. All you seem capable of is rubbishing players and managers when they have left Rovers, rubbishing players other teams sign and glorifying, parrot fashion, all that comes out of Rovers. Spot on. You just love having a go at me don't you! I post in good faith. If I hear something and I think it can be shared on a MB then I do. If I hear something 'sensitive', and I hear plenty, then for obvious reasons I refrain from posting. I do not make wild guesses!!! JRC gone - posted before reported anywhere Two signings before Stanley game - posted before reported anywhere about a 2nd signing. I knew it was Baradji but too sensitive to name Friendly set-up for this weekend with Netherlands' club - posted before reported anywhere Brittain - just how specific do you want it. Posted he would leave before end of this week Brittain - seems you are suffering from Chaddyitis! I did not guess the wrong club! I did not say he was going to Derby! I posted on Monday morning "I am told Brittain will be gone this week and atm (at the moment), Derby are leading the way" - what part of that do you not understand? Clearly, Middlesbrough armed with the Hackney money changed all that. Just what do you bring to the party?
  7. You are correct. I think the problem was someone dropped a bollock with the scheduling of friendlies and Rovers suddenly realised they had a gap of 2 weeks between Spain and WBA which resulted in a lot of last minute scraping about.
  8. The facts are Chaddy: You said Brittain was going nowhere My information wasn't wrong, in fact it was spot on! I was told he would leave the club by the end of the week and at the time I posted (Monday), Derby were leading the way. You say "Derby haven't even made another bid since over 3 weeks ago" - you are deluding yourself - why do you think I was told as of Monday morning 'Derby were leading the way'!?!? I think it's clear Brittain wants away and my understanding is Rovers wanted to 'lance the boil' sooner rather than later. I never said he was going to Derby - show me a post where I said that !?!? Armed with the Hackney money Middlesbrough upped the stakes and whilst it's now looking Brittain is going there, it aint over until the fat lady sings As far Brittain preferring Middlesbrough - what do you really expect him to indicate when it looks like Middlesbrough have landed a knockout blow? Brittain is hardly likely to say 'I'll sign for you but Derby was my preferred destination' Trouble is Chaddy, I think you are extremely gullible, you fail to read and understand other posts and you churn out erroneous stuff just to fit your own agenda.
  9. So what? You really think he's not going g anywhere?!
  10. Take it on trial and then tell them to cancel. They'll offer you a dirt cheap price. Rinse and repeat. Has cost me less than a tenner in total for last 12 months!
  11. This will now force Derby's hand. Think they have been playing something of a waiting game whilst busy elsewhere in the market. Time for them to sh1t or get off the pot. Don't think this is over yet.
  12. Not if Derby don't stump up a deal acceptable to Rovers. Would be amazed if Brittain and Eustace haven't had a tete-a-tete! Don't think it's a case of 'holding out' - can't do anything unless a club comes up with a deal Rovers prepared to accept.
  13. Sadly Chaddy, I think you live in a world of delusion and self denial. Posters on this MB have quoted your biblical mate Nicko about Rovers bids etc and the following is an extract from the LT in June: There have been efforts to make a breakthrough on the defensive front. Modibo Sagnan was an early target and there was strong optimism that transfer would happen. Sadly, no progress was made, as is the case with Mickael Nade, another defender on Blackburn Rovers' list.
  14. I did say when posting about this on Monday "and atm, Derby are leading the way". Clearly, the sale of Hackney has given Middlesbrough further financial clout - don't think Derby can be ruled out just yet and much will depend on where Brittain fancies going the most. Understand Rovers have fielded enquiries for Travis this summer and the pot has now started to simmer!
  15. Come on Chaddy - at least 6 of the 8 I mentioned were reported in the LT !!! Also stated Rovers were apart on valuations - no surprise there. Again, you are trying to defend the indefensible - get your head out of the sand lad!
  16. Buttons and boxes of crips I guess !!! Sagnan, Nade, Kapuadi, De Keersmaecker, Mannsverk, Baradji, Lewis Miller, Mumda etc all linked BUT ALL FAILURES TO LAND. I think the fans are being conned! Instead we get Forshaw, De Neve, Tavares and Alebiosu. Think Rovers are laughing at likes of you Chaddy and you just can't see it.
  17. Feck me - 'a terrible Championship' but 1 in 3 in the PL and chased by both MU and Chelsea..................................!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! He wanted 6 or 7 BEFORE losing Batth, Dolan and Weimann so presumably he wanted 9 or 10! TBH Chaddy, reading your posts about Rovers is like living in an echo chamber with you merely regurgitating everything that emanates from Rovers, bullshit or otherwise. Get a life and post what you TRULY THINK instead of just the sh1te from Rovers.
  18. Middlesbrough have made two signings now - Alfie Jones from Hull for a fee which could reach £3million with add ons and Abdoulaye Kante (defensive midfielder) from Troyes for a fee reported at less than £2million. Clearly, reinvesting the Hackney money. Will they now deliver a knockout bid for Brittain to thwart Eustace and Derby.
  19. You rubbished Ipswich's signing of Delap and look where he is now! I understand Mowbray turned down the chance to take Delap on loan from City in his last January window with Rovers!!!!!!! What is Ismael very happy about? Do you honestly believe he would come out in public and say 'really, we need another 5 to 6 QUALITY additions'. In all fairness to Moyes he's done that at Everton. I think you are incredibly naive and gullible and just post parrot fashion whatever bullsh1t comes out of Rovers.
  20. and if one or both get injured / suspended! Absolute folly to think we have Leonard in reserve - needs loaning out to League 1 or 2 to see if he's fully recovered, can put a run of games together and can find the onion bag a few times! He's no longer a youngster at 22 and 25ish senior games over 4 years is pitiful. Time for the lad to sh1t or get off the pot!
  21. A few pinning their hopes on Tavares. At 23, his only real senior experience, other than 30ish games over 3 years for Porto B in Liga 2, came last season with Moreirense, a lower half league team in the 5th rated Portuguese Liga. Last season, his stats were hardly convincing starting in only 15 games of which he managed to complete only 4. Think he only has 1 or 2 goals to his credit over his career so far (read somewhere he had just 1 goal and 1 assist to his name last season) so he's not going to give us much there. Beyond Travis and Tronstad, we look goosed in midfield with only Tavares, Buckley, Forshaw and Montgomery in reserve. We desperately need another seniorish central midfielder with some proven ability whether that be Baradji or someone else - if Travis goes then we will need two!
  22. The thought fills me with horror. Think re-signing Forshaw was an act of desperation as we'd only landed De Neve at that point. Already injured, played little or no part in pre season and wont be fit for the big kick off. As for 'Jason Lowe' Montgomery, a Lazarian footballer who has risen from the sixth tier of English football (Marine and Chorley) in the blink of an eye. Seen little to suggest the lad offers much beyond athleticism. Wouldn't like to start a match with him in our midfield.
  23. Think there is considerable 'pitch rolling' from both Rovers and Jackson about the number of signings to come. Ismael said 2 or 3 and now Jackson saying 2. Many fans think even 3 is at least 2 short of what we require, however, some gullible fans will buy into all the bulls1t from Rovers and Jackson and convince themselves, and try to convince others, that 2 or 3 will be enough.
  24. I can't understand your first point. Can I suggest before you fire off post after post, you sense check what you have written so folk may be able to understand! As to point two, how do you know there have been no new bids "since Boro bid over 2 weeks ago" - if my information is correct and I believe it is, you are plain wrong. Chaddy tells us he no longer drinks alcohol. He now prefers the intoxication of my posts and he just can't get enough!
  25. Agree, Endean was terrible but he was only part of the deal. You need to remember Ken Furphy was manager at the time and he loved to wheel and deal. He brought in a couple early doors he had at Watford (Endean and Garbett). Other early Furphy signings from memory included McNamee, Field, Arentoft (Rovers first foreign player?) and Price.
