[Archived] Preseasons - UK Ones

[ABBEY]

The youngsters did well on the whole.  Dickov is getting back to fitness - spoke to him afterwards and he doesn't feel he's quite there but pleased to be back in action - what a pleasant guy he is!

Yes, quite a few people, thanks.

If anyone, ever, sees me in that state at a football match again, please, please, tell me to go home for my own sake

On a related note, have Scotty and SteB made it home yet ?

It was a bit embarising to have to watch SSN this morning to see the final score.

On the contrary Glenn it was refreshing to see you "enjoying" yourself

This is the photo of Morecambe player Chris Blackburn who is apparently similar looking to me.

[roversWASmylife]

Glenn's right with that photo.

18/19 year old German, product of the academy, left winger but plays on either wing, was a member of the youth cup team that got to the finals,2003-04 season but got a bad injury. Was on loan to Cercle Brugge last season.

[Bobby G]

How did he do at Cercle?

Games/Goals...

[philipl]

If you read the official site, he massively upset the Cercle people by his superior attitude not being matched by superior performances.

Kept thinking on Saturday I'd heard of the Morecambe keeper, Ryan Robinson before.

The penny just dropped, he a was Rover youth team keeper years ago.

Wondered what all the 'rovers reject' chants were about..

[tchocky]

Only about 3 years ago I think...

[Alan75]

From the Morecambe web site.

Ryan Robinson joined the Shrimps as backup to first team goalkeeper Adam Sollitt in late September 2004.

He began his career as a youngster at Blackburn Rovers before making the move to Southend United for the 2003/2004 season. Robinson spent most of his time in the reserve team but he did make two first team appearances away at Hull City and at home against Lincoln with both games ending in defeat.

After being released by Southend he moved back to the North of England where he joined Morecambe.

I don't think we can take all the credit because we nabbed him from Mannheim. Souey's German scout seems to have got one thing right.

[Dan Furness]

Whats this I hear about cockle chant?!!!!!

How can you say that when he hasn't played beyond reserve team level?

Granted he did OK against Morecambe but has a very long way to go yet. I think people are carried away just because he is left-footed.

[benhben]

There was also the chant, Whats it like to smell of fish? Ill have you know i do not smell of fish!

[Blackpool_Rover]

thanks guys for the info on the sergio the german.. sounded like he was really good and i hadnt even heard of him!!! lol

[Hughesy]

I went morcambe on Saturday too – cracking day out

2700 in the ground, around 2/3 of them were rovers fans.

Impressed with Bellamy’s speed and Kuqi-monsters power – his goal was very good, showed great strength and unusual for a rovers player not to hit the top of the stand after a run like his. I also thought that Taylor did a good job at full back.

Was chatting to Mokoena (1st half) Bellamy/ Hughes/ Dickov and Tugay throughout the second half. All were very good, happy to sign autographs and have pics taken. I had my pic taken with Bellamy, while the bird had her taken with Tugay, Hughes and Mokoena.

Also noticed that there were at least 10 Newcastle supporters there. All come to see Bellamy for 1 last time and said that their loss was our gain and that they want Souness out! Oh what a shame!

Very optimistic for the new season, we already looked very fit compared to this stage last season.

Indeed, he also made a lot of apperences on the bench for Rovers, he was never far from the first team.
