[Archived] Big Fat Sam's Shopping List


Recommended Posts

I am the worst kind of poster. I simply repeat what I read on football news websites and forums like this one. I have not researched the validity of Tugay->coach beyond the previously cited sources. As much as I love the guy, I hope he doesn't play for us next season. ;)

Nicko IF we were to stay up and sell RSC do you think Sam would be given a big chunk to spend on a striker or still bargain basement buys?

All highly hypothetical of course.

I think he would...but Roque won't be the only one going.

Major changes needed.

Anyone else thinks andy van de meyde could be worth a try? He used to be very good before he went to Everton and considering our manager's reputation to resurect careers, he might be an alternative to Pedersen or Diouf next season. At very least, we will have an alternative to Pedersen.

Sorry No.

Van der meyde would be another waste of money. Many rumours about him being trouble still float round everton (altough the club said they where false they still fly round) and at 25K a week I'd sooner stick with Bert.

We have to sign players who will increase in value this summer, not has beens.

Isn't Van Der Meyde rumoured to be an Alchoholic and a mean drunk? Nah, even Kiki/Kili Gonzalez would be a better option (as in the former Valencia and Inter winger).

I think Kurayani is a tall, physical striker like Klose, but not as good. And actually might be German too. Worth a look.

Out of the freebies Gibson (Man Utd), Hunt (Bolton), Sturridge (Man Citeh), Davis and Lauren (Portsmouth) would be worth a look in my opinion.

Kuranyi was born in Brazil. He no longer plays for Germany since he walked out on the team. He was the subject of a rather funny hacker prank early this year when some hackers broke onto the schalke site and added a story saying the club had cancelled his contract, he's not very popular in germany.

Anyways he scores goals and we need some could be a good move provided he's cheap of course.

Van der Meyde was always crap and he's even worse now he's an alcy.

He sounds a bit of an Anelka/Van Hoojidonk type doesn't he? Not sure he's the type of person we need.

Basing one's opinion on a tabloid newspaper report is not the wisest move Billy, ask Nicko. ;) Anyway Brian Clough forged a European cup winning team out of managing bad boys and misfits through financial necessity.

The Mirror story about the former Arsenal kid Nicholas is correct...if you check the excellent unleaded's research on another thread he is already playing for Rovers in a tournament.

The lad sounds quite headstrong and wants to play. Not a bad thing.

As long as he settles in the area he could be an asset.

Cheers Nicko. Is he a free agent, and therefore potentially a player we could use before the end of the season - or simply "one for the future"?

One for the future...he could play for the reserves or academy but not first team games. I don't think he is ready for that yet anyway.

Would that be a tournament recently or currently taking place in Washington? Saw something on google news about a BRFC v Real Madrid fixture which may or may not have taken place.

SSN linking us with Ragnar Sigurdsson

Quite possibly the best defender (Alongside his partner at the heart of IFKs defense, Mattias Bjärsmyr, also linked to Rovers some months ago IIRC) in the Swedish leagues. Whether he's Premiership-ready or not is hard to tell, but I see him as a complete centre half, no real weknesses. £1.5m for an unproven player, albeit an international, can be risky in our situation though.

Can offer us something going forward as well ;)
