So I'm prepared to bet the value of my ST at Ewood with you for the 2012-2013 season / or a pint in the Blues Bar that RSC does not see out the next 4 years at BRFC...... Serious debilitating injury excepted of course.

Cor, bet that's fun. Sharing a pint with a miserable old git who'd "give you a slap" (Gordon's words) if you don't agree with him.

He's right though (there's a first time for everything): Cruz could well be off in January if he continues to score goals.

Certainly a different tune than the one Bellamy sang, when we rescued him.

Really?

Bellamy makes Rovers vow

However, the 26-year-old has assured Rovers fans that he has no intention of quitting and is instead looking forward to progressing under the guidance of Hughes.

"I'm not just here for a season and then going to say 'Thanks a lot'," said Bellamy.

"I want to try and do as well as I can for Blackburn."

"People sometimes say when you are in a good position, you need to go to a better team," Santa Cruz told the Daily Mail. "But I have something to pay back to the club.

Good to hear from Roque, but it's a bit surprising that that paper is even featuring something good about Rovers. The tide has turned?

All it means is that we will command a bigger transfer value to share out with RSC and his agent (and likely Bayern Munich) when he eventually does move on.

Yes, it's clearly a bad thing to get more money for him when he'll leave :huh::huh:

You'll just ignore any sensible reply to your absurd posts as you always do, but I'll still point out that this is positive news, whichever way you look at it. Does it mean he'll be here forever? No, of course not, and contrary to what you seem to think, none of us believe that. But do you honestly believe that him signing a new contract, and making positive comments about the club, hurts Blackburn Rovers FC?

Good news is good news, there's no point complaining about winning the lotto just because it wasn't a Jackpot that week.

Good stuff ..... but a word of warning to those with memories of the average goldfish.....

In the immortal words of Capt Mainwareing..... 'Stupid boy'. Or does 'good stuff' mean something else in Swedish Lathund?

It is amusing how we get suckered in every time, forgetting the lessons of the past and buying in to our latest heroes vitriol.

These days if a club Rovers' size gets two seasons out of a top quality players it's good business . Can't be helped .

One of the truly nice guys of football, who knows what loyalty is if you read the Daily Mail article published on tribal football.

http://tribalfootball.com/article.php?id=108301

He knows this is a transitional year and didnt want to leave us to dust after the wholesale changes we have had. He basically says he owed us this season to be here, but that the club knows he is very ambitious.

Bottom line is I dont see Champions League teams knocking down the door for him, which means we have to qualify for the UEFA Cup if we want to retain him, otherwise he is off next season...

Only Rovers fans can react to a star striker signing a new contract. Well done guys you should be proud of yourselves. Who'd want to sign for such a miserable bunch of twerps who demand the moon on a stick and then complain they can't hold it up.

He may go to another club next season, he may stay. Lets see what happens before we condemn another player.

He's re-signed, and now he's up for an award at the Northwest Football Awards, vote at www.northwestfootballawards.co.uk ! He was brilliant last season and showed loyalty in staying at Ewood - let's repay Roque Santa Cruz! :lol:

Don't nitpic Ed, you know exactly the point I was making.

Nope, I don't. I wasn't sure if I'd missed something and there was a nasty comment from Rocky, or if you'd used vitriol when you probably meant rhetoric. That I could understand, if not necessarily agree with. :)
