I also said that this constant interest may lead to a new contract. Great news for Rovers.

If you are going to value a player at over £20 million you need to pay him accordingly.

Good decision. End of chat.

Man City were never going to get him, Spurs inquired but were never going to get him, Villa can talk big figures but were never going to get him.

Funny that Man U are now totally stuffed. Berbatov or nothing. That will teach Fergie for watching him last week, trying to be smart...and then being outsmarted.

Very amusing.

No 11o'clocker then? :(

Been very busy...but not Rovers-wise.

I think you know the latest on Fowler, Andrews, Benni, Roque and Joaquin anyway.

If anything changes I will let you know.

If not I will give you an early shout on the Man City thing.

If he is smarting then it might backfire on us when we play them. An all out attacking manure would be ripe for a Roqueing in front of the cameras :lol:

Couple of pages back...reports from Spain that he will stay...most likely outcome at the moment.

Yep, although the Valencia financial situation adn the fact that Joaquin wants a payrise could ressurect the deal.

Just to clarify Nicko - when the price was quotedat 8m plus 2m add ons was that a "hit this and we will let you talk to him" or a "well we are not sure if we want to sell but this is the sort of price we were thinking about?".

If it was the former there really has to be a chance we could land him if we decide he is the best option.

Get the online papers early and see what you think.

I'm guessing you wrote these?

I think the 'Joaquin stays' story that came out earlier looks pretty reliable.

There is a very good Man City story going to break in the papers tomorrow. Is this good if your a city supporter or good if you are not and want to a good laugh?

Hopefully a follow-up to it on Sunday.

Might make one or two doubters realise how bad things are there...and what could be happening next.

Get the online papers early and see what you think.

No, but I know what is coming out.

I am working on the follow-up for Sunday...and I still am.

But the Saturday morning papers will be very revealing.

I don't think there's a Rovers-type bargain deal to be done here. Unfortunately.

Don't think we have time to do one of our trademark bargains before this window shuts. I fear nothing significant on the transfer front will happen until January.

Great news about Roque signing a new contract.. as for ManC I cant wait to read the news..

FIFA judgement on Elano deal, thaksin being refused asylum, Thaksins charged in his absense in case today (Land deal case was today), FA to deduct points due to Unfit persons rule, players to be sold to stay afloat, potential buyers running away after seeing accounts... Blimey the list of potential things is endless :)

Shame about Joaquin well.. allowed some of us to dream for a while.. role on the 31st to put us out of our misery.. :)

Is Pinto currently at Rovers on trial or not?

Any reports?

Arrived this morning. I believe there was a problem with him being unable to train until he had permission from his club...but that is sorted.

West Ham are not very happy.

Just get a good feeling about this guy, but not sure he is needed if Benni stays.

The Man City news in the papers is fascinating. Chairman Garry Cook has done a remarkable interview with most of the papers.

Turns out the Premier League are all over City like a rash.

To paraphrase:

Shinawatra may stand down because of the trouble he is in and causing...Premier League have spoken to City...rival chairmen have complained...City are looking for partners...but Shinawatra wants to keep 50 per cent...club admits transfer cock-ups...ouch!

Like I say, there may be a further installment on the drama on Sunday.

This is THE story anywhere in football right now.
