We should make him pay us to leave, if the bids we get arent enough, he has to 'top' the bid up with his own money

Somebody should put your sig up in the dressing room......

Alan,

nice article in the mirror - however a couple of points, if he is a star and was dazzling against Valencia - what interest would he have other than money and the premier league to come to Rovers, fighting relegation and with limited resource and funds ? or are the premier league and money enough for this guy who is valued at 7million - thats a big spend for our board me thinks !

There is a large poster in the dressing room with Muhammed Ali on it pointing out winners are made from something they have inside them, a dream, a desire, a vision...last minute stamina...a little faster...the skill and the will... above their shirts a poster saying "we're all in this together" and another that I have on my phone but can't read - basically setting out the duties of strikers, midfielders and defenders.

Plenty of room for Shabani's poster ;) get it printed, lad.

Very odd question. 99% of our current squad are here on that basis. They are the only reasons for virtually every player that moves from abroad to England. It doesn't mean they won't come and try their best.

Which fraction of which player isn't here for that reason? the bit of dunny that's fit? :)

I see the LT are speculating that Roque's return visit to the German specialist could result in a second lariscopy operation on the same knee.

Sounds like thats that then. :angry2:

Obviously missed a few bits of shrapnel first time around. Strangely given the entire thing is monitored and recorded by camera it's relatively common with that type of op. I had such surgery last year and the consultant explained at great length prior to the op that he might miss whatever was causing the problem with my knee. He didn't thankfully and the job was successfully sorted. RSC may as well have gone to Beardwood instead of Germany. :rolleyes:

Would be funny if Sam worked his magic next season and Roque's dream team Big Club ended up lower in the table than us! Here's hoping...

I can't see us ever getting that type of deal though, plus Zokora is awful.

I think it will be straight cash for Roque, i just hope we can get a decent fee for him considering all of his fitness issues this season.

what is it about spurs? you can gaurentee every year they will try sign one of our better performing players & usually for multiples of what we paid!! Do they have no scouting system of their own?? or do they just use the daily mail??

If it involves City or Spurs then im fairly confident it will include players - City have Jo & Caciedo (who we tried for last time), Spurs have Bent. It would be great if Arsenal came in and took him instead though.

Arsenal, Liverpool, Spurs & City all rumoured to want him - Why?!

If you don't know that then you don't know much. A fit RSC is a big danger to any centre half. If he were English he'd be just what Capello wants.

Still if you really do know better than Arsene, Rafa, Arry and sparky then I take my hat off to you hughesy. :rolleyes:

"A fit RSC" is a rare. His injury record should put off most big clubs, though I can imagine Spurs lodging a bid in the summer. Problem they'll have is I'm sure he'll ask for substantial wages... so do they try and force a type of "pay as you play" deal into RSC's contract (would he accept that?) or lower the transfer fee paid to us with the promise to pay more after RSC has played a certain amount of games for them (would we accept that)?

Paying RSC massive wages without any fallback seems like a big risk to me.

He's overvalued and his injury problems mean that he is unlikely to ever be fit for long periods of time in this league. I can't fully understand why anyone would be willing to spend huge amounts of money on him.

Thats by far the most likely way we'll get any decent amount of money out of a buying club. We'd have little option but to accept those terms.
