[Roar of the Rover]

Who needs RSC when we've got Robbie Fowler.

Don't thin Roque will be going anywhere. He's at the launch of the new kit tommorow. If his future was in doubt then I would think the club are clever enough not to send him.

[Exiled in Toronto]

So when I left to go on holiday 2 weeks ago, the hot news was as follows:

- Warnock about to join Newcastle

- Fowler signing imminent

- Andrews to be unvieled any day now

- Roque off to City

I return to find that:

- Warnock about to join Newcastle

- Fowler signing imminent

- Andrews to be unvieled any day now

- Roque off to City

and a further 1000 pages of neurotic drivel have been posted, about what I ask myself?

[McAds]

I can’t see him going to City. However, my worry now is that this may cause a bidding war, with somebody like Villa coming in for him.

Nicko, heard there's a 10am news conference tomoz. true or not?

[RevidgeBlue]

Our friends at Sky sports News reporting that City have made a £12m for Roque.

Can't remember if it was the Mail or the Sun earlier today that claimed Hughes had enquired about RSC but was told he was not for sale.

Other than that, and the fact that the bid is probably around 50% of what we would actually accept, it's a runner.

12m for santa, GET REAL! can city hurry up and go bust

[EwoodGlory]

For who?

[RevidgeBlue]

Hughes must be pretty brassed off right now in the sense that he probably thought with Frank's squillions he could come back and rape and pillage us of the likes of Warnock, Samba, Bentley, Santa Cruz etc.

Couldn't even land 37 year old Friedel.

[Wing Wizard Windy Miller]

Roque is going nowhere, especially not for £12 million.

...unless there is some kind of trigger in his contract.....obviously Hughes would have no idea........

Lets hope we learnt our lesson!

[Greenall_David]

Isn't the home kit being unveiled tomorrow? I've seen pics of Roque wearing it on the official Rovers site. Perhaps that might be it.

press conference here or at citeh?

[RibbleValleyRover]

You would have also thought that either on thursday or friday Ince would have done a pre-match conferance in front of the media to talk about the upcoming game etc. So it could possibly be that.
