Link to official site: http://www.rovers.premiumtv.co.uk/page/New...1516774,00.html Outrageous. Jobs for the boys, lower league rubbish, he doesn't know what he's doing ...

DeadlyDirk Posted January 12, 2009 Posted January 12, 2009 I'ts nothing to do with Ince surely, don't think we can associate this one with him. If Ince had put it in place then surely he would have been here at the start of the window, not 12 days or so in to it. Interestingly enough the macclesfield website, as well as other websites class him as a midfielder. Stats for last year, Apps : 1(10) Goals: 1 Haven't found this year yet.
alexanders Posted January 12, 2009 Posted January 12, 2009 Wikipedia says he is a midfielder: Nick Blackman Btw, Ince keen to sign Macclesfield Starlet

Although possibly after finding this link http://www.mirror.co.uk/sport/football/200...15875-20731144/ It says he wouldn't be able to play for us until this transfer window. Still if it was confirmed before then you would have expect it to have been announced, BFS probably gave it the go ahead.

RibbleValleyRover Posted January 12, 2009 Posted January 12, 2009 More info behind the deal on the Macclesfield website: http://www.mtfc.co.uk/page/NewsDetail/0,,1...1516596,00.html "Previous Silkmen boss Paul Ince had invited the young striker along to train with the Ewood Park club several months ago. But with Premier League rules preventing any movement of players outside of the transfer window, the move could only be formalised at the turn of the New Year."
alexanders Posted January 12, 2009 Posted January 12, 2009 Makes Oliver Holt shut up. Michael Chretien Didn't Nicko say that he didn't play yesterday?
Ewood and I Would Posted January 12, 2009 Posted January 12, 2009 Are you suggesting he's a thief? you're either referring to his first name or making a racist statement about black men
DeadlyDirk Posted January 12, 2009 Posted January 12, 2009 Makes Oliver Holt shut up. Michael Chretien Didn't Nicko say that he didn't play yesterday? He did say that, Nancy's game was cancelled checked it myself, that sums up tribal football for you.
T4E Posted January 12, 2009 Posted January 12, 2009 Saviola is linked with Pompey on the BBC paper round up this morning. Wasn't he linked to Bolton when Sam was there quite often?

Ewood and I Would Posted January 12, 2009 Posted January 12, 2009 By the way what is all this talk about us signing the Jurassic Park author? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Michael_Crichton
DeadlyDirk Posted January 12, 2009 Posted January 12, 2009 Someone has updated Nick Blackman's wikipedia page, if its anything to go by then he has had a long injury which is why he hasn't played much. Still one goal to his name doesn't exactly make him stand out as a prospect for this year, maybe it's the second coming of Jon Stead??
RibbleValleyRover Posted January 12, 2009 Posted January 12, 2009 Saviola is linked with Pompey on the BBC paper round up this morning. Wasn't he linked to Bolton when Sam was there quite often? Would be an option to look at if we sell Roque, very good player looking to rebuild his career.
BiggusLaddus Posted January 12, 2009 Posted January 12, 2009 http://www.skysports.com/story/0,19528,11095_4782815,00.html Hardly a "shun" as the journo put it. At least the guy's got his head screwed on and claims he's not ready to play abroad just yet. I think that his attitude deserves a lot of respect. Far too many players are happy to sit on the bench picking up money for nothing. Unless of course he thinks he can get a better offer.... LOL
alexanders Posted January 12, 2009 Posted January 12, 2009 http://www.goal.com/en/news/1722/french-li...ntion-lyon-held Well, very good research by Tribal then
Craigman Posted January 12, 2009 Posted January 12, 2009 Well, very good research by Tribal then It is exactly what the People said in the first place, they have just copied it from there.
Bennisfromheaven Posted January 12, 2009 Posted January 12, 2009 Anelka - no chance. Not sure you are right on this one, Nicko! i have heard from some reliable unnamed sources that he will be in today for a medical & talks!?!
hawkiiz Posted January 12, 2009 Posted January 12, 2009 Someone has updated Nick Blackman's wikipedia page, if its anything to go by then he has had a long injury which is why he hasn't played much. Still one goal to his name doesn't exactly make him stand out as a prospect for this year, maybe it's the second coming of Jon Stead?? look at maccs website. he was injured last year, but have mad 11 apps as a sub. as they cant guarantee him playing time, they are happy to sell... yippie. was ince trying to hurt the club for fun?? Not sure you are right on this one, Nicko! i have heard from some reliable unnamed sources that he will be in today for a medical & talks!?! oh please. where did you hear? if you are joking, please stop
Ewood and I Would Posted January 12, 2009 Posted January 12, 2009 It is exactly what the People said in the first place, they have just copied it from there. That's what I was thinking but then we can criticism Tribal and not nicko (who actually wrote it), a bit like when nicko released the clause info and no one said anything until Hughes mentioned it and suddenly the crime of the century had taken place.
DeadlyDirk Posted January 12, 2009 Posted January 12, 2009 look at maccs website. he was injured last year, but have mad 11 apps as a sub. as they cant guarantee him playing time, they are happy to sell... yippie. was ince trying to hurt the club for fun?? oh please. where did you hear? if you are joking, please stop It's a strange one but still I would have thought if Ince had completed and finalised the deal then the lad would have been here at the start of the window, BFS must surely have had final say? But anyway regardless of who bought him it is odd, he is 20 this year which is of course by no means old but if he can't even get into the Macclesfield team in league 2 then what can he offer to us? That's what I was thinking but then we can criticism Tribal and not nicko (who actually wrote it), a bit like when nicko released the clause info and no one said anything until Hughes mentioned it and suddenly the crime of the century had taken place. To be fair it's nicko's job to break stories, they don't always do things that fans are going to like, it certainly isn't Hughes job to do it. It would have been just as odd if nicko had selected the Man City team in the last game and was barking out orders on the touchline, still he couldn't do much worse.
