Savage Signs

[northernrover]

.......... players with no premiership experience

u just dont learn do you

What a Cock!!!!

lack of premiership experience hasn't been too detrimental to Carvalho, Fereira, Gallas, Tiago, etc at Chelsea.

Henry, Pires, Ljungberg for Arsenal.

...and the tens upon tens more players around the premier league who had no premiership experience.

Think about what you're saying

Who doesn't learn

[mrsjansen]

What is it with Birmingham fans and management, can they not handle the fact that a player might, god forbid want to leave them. Everyday Iam reading in the papers how Steve Bruce has said this, David Gold that. You have a least five of our former players, yet not one of our management team criticsied you for wanting to buy them. So grow up, shut up and read in the dictionary the word silence. You have obviously been taking a leaf out of Sir Alex book. Off the pitch obviously.

[mrsjansen]

Mark Hughes has just said on SSN that he was hoping all this would have been resolved before weekend and that it could now be another couple of days before we sign him as Birmingham want to bring in a couple of players first to replace Savage. I'm sure they could raid our squad.

oh god not another thread on Racism please - it'll get deleted

Sorry Flopsy, I juts wasnt aware that employing a mixture of staff from various ethnic origins and of different genders was racist.

Im interested in how, in fact, it is. And perhaps as a result of this gentlemans comments I will contact my MP with a view to having the definition of racism (as defined in the RRA of 1976) amended.

Or perhaps I wasn't.

I didnt want the thread descending into a thread on Racism yet again. Thats all. Its not to much to ask is it?

[Radagast]

On this board?

[Ste B]

lol

villa villa villa

i cant think of loads that u have paid off cos your previous managers are crap, even your new manager is bringing in unknown players with no premiership experience

u just dont learn do you

Figaroa (spelling), Kuci to name but 2 unknown players your manager has signed.

Whereas our 2 "unknowns" are captains of their respective countries.

Keep digging.

of course, the best transfer policy is to sign players with lots of premiership experience.

Heskey, Gronkjaer, Yorke, Dunn. You can't go wrong really can you...

muppet

[broadsword]

Come on Robbie and just bleeding sign so we can lock this thread!

[baarree]

your club has never done anything wrong ? except 95% of your matchday staff is asians talk about racism, isnt the joob good enough for white ppl in blackburn

If this is true, I think it is a sad state of affairs!

[unleaded]

Looks like Birmingham are really taking the micky now, making Rovers dance to there tune,jump through burning rings,playing simon says......Mark hiughes must really want this player.

[Flopsy]

oh god DONT GO THERE

[RovertheHill]

Some t*t quoting random statistics certainly doesn't mean it's true. And so what if it is?

I work with a wide cross-section of fans - Bolton, Man City, Man Utd, Liverpool, Everton, Chelsea and Arsenal. Every single one of them are of the opinion that a) Blackburn and Hughes especially have maintained their dignity in this matter and Birmingham, and especially Bruce and Sullivan, have come out of it with little or no dignity.

All of the accusations from these people are based on hearsay and gossip - and if there was a shred of evidence I have no doubt that we would be in front of the FA on a charge. We aren't.

Conversely, Sullivan is on record as saying he doesn't like the drive to Birmingham and would like to invest in West Ham or SPurs, and Bruce was taken to court by Crystal Palace for not honouring his contracts. These are both facts - not rumours.

As for the big club, small club nonsense - yes, we are a small club, which makes our position and ability to attract players all the more remarkable. Unfortunately, you are also a small club, but you believe you are bigger than you are. If you manage another 4 or 5 years of progress, which would see you in Europe, then you might just be able to say it with conviction.

Shut up, its not the first time we've had such a post from you.

Keep this ON TOPIC.

[Hasta]

Izzetnot - this all seems to have descended a little bit - your initial arguments were well balanced - but u just seemed to have slipped further and further down.

His problem is his initial well-reasoned arguments were simply untrue such as the fee they paid for Savage, saying they got Yorke on a free and that Dunn got us promoted twice. When a simple bit of searching and common knowledge proved these to be complete lies he lost his plot.

[The Prof.]

Blackburn only has a population of 95,000 - they always include another 30,000 for people who live in Darwen and some of that is Turton which is nearer the Reebock.

What do you get for the 5m Gold Porno inc takes out of BCFC? Think of the players you could have but unfortunatley goes on his mansion -or to save up for West Ham.

Are all Brummies illiterate racists?

[Yorkshire Blue]

Prof. I'll wager a greater percentage of the population of Darwen can be found at Ewood on a Saturday than that of Blackburn.

[S15]

now stop being a bunch of bitchin little school girls and get over it,

Are you familiar with irony you gimp.

Nah mate... they're all Mancs and Scousers (with the odd Scot or two thrown in for good measure)

[ABBEY]

difference is yorke cost us FA and is only on a 1yr contract

how can u judge mark hughes when he has been at the club a matter of months

look at the goal difference in the premiership, -12, you are struggling with goals, sign of a relegation battle

[greggyk]

On the official Brum site, it says that with Diao now signed (hehehe) Robbie Savage is expected to sign for Rovers shortly.

What about giving Savage the number 16 shirt?
