JohnS Posted August 8, 2008 Posted August 8, 2008 Cheers! Is there going to be alot of panic buying? Whats ever happened to Kaboul, is he waiting for an earthquake?
The Rover of Finland Posted August 8, 2008 Posted August 8, 2008 Is it good news Nicko? Good question! Shocking news was Fowler. Nicko, does Rovers and Pool even speak some language on case Pennant? It should be good for all three parts to solve things fast.
sparky12 Posted August 8, 2008 Posted August 8, 2008 Who needs Robbie Fowler? is it me or does it look like that pretty much all the goals that Djebbour scores are from around 6 yards
DeadlyDirk Posted August 8, 2008 Posted August 8, 2008 Good news for some, bad news for others...leave it until later for the full picture. Fowler!
Veevs Posted August 8, 2008 Posted August 8, 2008 Good news for some, bad news for others...leave it until later for the full picture. Hmm.. An old Friend.. well that has to be fowler or Andrews.. arg.. lol still dont mind the fowler thing too much he may be a useful coach..
JohnS Posted August 8, 2008 Posted August 8, 2008 Hmm.. An old Friend.. well that has to be fowler or Andrews.. arg.. lol still dont mind the fowler thing too much he may be a useful coach.. Could be Castillo
The Rover of Finland Posted August 8, 2008 Posted August 8, 2008 Hmm.. An old Friend.. well that has to be fowler or Andrews.. arg.. lol still dont mind the fowler thing too much he may be a useful coach.. My Rovers doesn´t have a friendship with neither of them..
sparky12 Posted August 8, 2008 Posted August 8, 2008 (or Micah Richards- another name I floated), oh god i hope no one buys any big players from citeh this season like richards because with the sale of someone like him they will have the money for roque. i think or will it get frozen like the rest or sinawatra's money?? can someone clear it up
Bobby G Posted August 8, 2008 Posted August 8, 2008 I doubt its Castillo since Nicko said its good news for some and bad for others...Castillo was good news for all I reckon... Duff would fit that. Fowler would but why is he an old friend, as he is still here at the club. Andrews could be but he wouldnt be good news for anyone.
sparky12 Posted August 8, 2008 Posted August 8, 2008 Lucas???? could be but do we really need him and wheres he gunna play.. the bench
Bobby G Posted August 8, 2008 Posted August 8, 2008 No way. We wont sign another right back as thats almost for certain with Simpson in.
fozzer Posted August 8, 2008 Posted August 8, 2008 could be but do we really need him and wheres he gunna play.. the bench Right Back(on the Bench), Id have him back, thought he was ace...
bringdunnback Posted August 8, 2008 Posted August 8, 2008 Fowler could be regarded as Ince's old friend. It could be that the NAC Breda game is his final chance to prove he still has it.
Sandiway Blue Posted August 8, 2008 Posted August 8, 2008 I think the `old friend` has to be Fowler signing a permanent contract. EDIT:BringDunnback beat me to it!
Bazzanotsogreat Posted August 8, 2008 Posted August 8, 2008 This is what I posted (tidied up not to encourage a war breaking out again): Wages are up by about £4m to £40m, gate income down by about £1m (poor cup runs and reduced prices) media income up by nearly £20m. How are wages up 4 Million? We have got rid of Bentley, Friedal & Savage – Who between them would earn around 7-8 million per season. We have added (so far) Vogel , Robinson, Villanueva (Loan) & Simpson (Loan) – Which combined will be around 4 million. We have greatly reduced costings on staff- Hughes was on nearly 2million per season. Ince will be on nowhere near that amount. Add to that Bowen & staff- One could expect rovers to save anywhere between 1-2.5 millions on staff We have also released Henchoz, Berner & Enkleman – Who probably would accrue wages of around 1.5 million per season. We have given 5 1st team players new contracts- One could assume an extra £250,000 per player. This is around 1-2 millions. We then have incremental pay rises written into player’s contracts. Perhaps an extra 5-10% on 6-8 contracts my guess would be 2 million- at most allocated to this. There is no evidence whatsoever to assume that wags for this season will be up 4 million- Indeed it would sae to say overall wages will remain static or even be down on last season. Nets to a £15m improvement of which £7m gets swallowed up paying off the excess borrowings from last year when Rovers bought ahead of the Prem going mad. Add back the Savage sale income of 1.5m as was pointed out and you get to a starting point of: Net £9.5m to spend- Nicko said £10m. Add £3m contribution from the Walker Trust Add £4m profit on the management change. Add £500K on the Garner sell-on fee. Add £750K on budget saving by not paying Hughes et al in June and not paying Bentley his new contract. Add £9m on Bentley if Arsenal get 50% Minus £1m on Robinson/Friedal Minus £4m set to one side for Villanueva The trust have stated they will make more money avaialble later in the season- which will cover this proposed transfer. Should the club make this a permanant deal
brfc_jonesy Posted August 8, 2008 Posted August 8, 2008 question for nicko for when you get round to it, is zigic really off to stoke? because man that would be some signing for them!
Bobby G Posted August 8, 2008 Posted August 8, 2008 With or without Zigic they will go down. Just cant see them staying. Although his goalscoring record is top notch everywhere he has been. I dont see any reason why he wont get some here either.
nicko Posted August 8, 2008 Posted August 8, 2008 question for nicko for when you get round to it, is zigic really off to stoke? because man that would be some signing for them! Stoke are in Valencia, trying to do that deal. It's not done by any means.
Bazrakats Posted August 8, 2008 Posted August 8, 2008 Is Sable signing http://www.goal.com/en/Articolo.aspx?ContenutoId=809572 he seems like a good player and certainly has experience
JohnS Posted August 8, 2008 Posted August 8, 2008 Stoke are in Valencia, trying to do that deal. It's not done by any means. Good signing for them if it happens, What about Kaboul Nicko, whats the latest with him?
Anti-Dingle-Brigade Posted August 8, 2008 Posted August 8, 2008 Lucas wouldn't come back, Bellamy wouldn't either. He'd fail the medical even if he wanted to. Duff or Fowler my cash is on.
