stewie Posted July 24, 2009 Posted July 24, 2009 Early talks between PNE and Hamann...he is ok in my book. In other news...Zat Knight is flying in to sign for Bolton...[38 and counting ]. Please tell me MON has a replacement or two lined up Nicko?

alexanders Posted July 24, 2009 Posted July 24, 2009 This surprisingly hit Skysports.com just after 'alexanders' put it on here... 11.02 Nikola Zigic has declared that he wants to remain at Valencia after turning down offers from other clubs, with Blackburn and Aston Villa having been linked with the Serbian striker. Do you think someone is tuning in? Haha. I have to say I am surprised ! We are all feeding skysport with news aren't we The thing about Zigic is last season he was down the pecking order, behind Morientes. Reading from that interwiev Morientes in now gone and Zigic is determined to fight for a starting place. What about Hoffa Nicko? I say we should still take a look at Mandzukic of Zagreb!
nicko Posted July 24, 2009 Author Posted July 24, 2009 I say we should still take a look at Mandzukic of Zagreb! Yes, but you have been saying that for weeks. And it's easy for you to say 'cos I can't even pronounce it.
villadan Posted July 24, 2009 Posted July 24, 2009 Please tell me MON has a replacement or two lined up Nicko? Hopefully Gary Cahill coming the other way.....
alexanders Posted July 24, 2009 Posted July 24, 2009 Yes, but you have been saying that for weeks. And it's easy for you to say 'cos I can't even pronounce it. You know that JW is reading this board, I am trying to convince him to have a look He has the physical presence needed for the EPL. He is the knew Alen Boksic !
vintageadidas Posted July 24, 2009 Posted July 24, 2009 I would not be happy if Warnock left to Villa. He is my favourite player and a top, top, top man. I met him in Puerto Banus the day after the WBA games. Well sound!

I met him in Puerto Banus the day after the WBA games. Well sound! Love the guy. Never really understood why they were willing to let him go so cheaply! Top Bargain and a top bloke!
Al Posted July 24, 2009 Posted July 24, 2009 I would have to say that he is not exactly breaking down the door to get away. I wonder if Kevin Davies's name came up now - for the first time - whether there would be the same hysterical reaction against him. Or people would slowly realise that he ticker more boxes than anyone else. No change from me. I'd rather play next door's cat up front.
nicko Posted July 24, 2009 Author Posted July 24, 2009 No change from me. I'd rather play next door's cat up front. Yeah, that would work.
my_name_is_Earl Posted July 24, 2009 Posted July 24, 2009 Nicko, I know i've asked this before but its more of an update I guess. Do you think Davies would want to come to Rovers judging by what you know of the situation? In the current market, he's my preferred choice if its for five million.
nicko Posted July 24, 2009 Author Posted July 24, 2009 The Croatian guy Kalinic, mentioned round here once or twice, is about to move...Portsmouth are over there and will buy him with the money they expect to get for Crouch. Don't know much about him but his record is good. Nicko, I know i've asked this before but its more of an update I guess. Do you think Davies would want to come to Rovers judging by what you know of the situation? I feel like I'm going over old ground here, but there are always ways of getting players if you try hard enough - and play dirty.
Plastic Head Posted July 24, 2009 Posted July 24, 2009 Maybe we should buy this guy to play up front. New Forward? (The image raises a whole bucketful of questions that I won't even try to answer on here....)
nicko Posted July 24, 2009 Author Posted July 24, 2009 Sounds like Lorik Cana will go to Sunderland although his wages are big enough to choke a police horse. http ://www.sunderlandecho.com/sport/SAFC-c...lle.5491278.jp [39 and counting? ]
EwoodGlory Posted July 24, 2009 Posted July 24, 2009 Ashton to West Ham to be completed today? Also, Curbs met with Newcastle reps last night (again).
brfcshabba Posted July 24, 2009 Posted July 24, 2009 Ashton to West Ham to be completed today? Also, Curbs met with Newcastle reps last night (again). I take it you mean Stoke
duffbear Posted July 24, 2009 Posted July 24, 2009 Nicko - Just had an idea how much do you think it would cost to get Ronaldo from Corinthians? I cant imagine he is on stupid wages either playing in the Brazalian League. Goal scoring record looks good 17 games 14 goals! Shirt sales would pretty much cover his wages! I know the fee to get Davies would probably be 7.5 million plus but do you know what the fee for Beattie would be maybe this could become possible if Stoke do sign Ashton. If you had 12 million to spend on a striker who would you go for?
EwoodGlory Posted July 24, 2009 Posted July 24, 2009 I take it you mean Stoke Aye, unless Stoke are flogging him
nicko Posted July 24, 2009 Author Posted July 24, 2009 Ashton to West Ham to be completed today? Also, Curbs met with Newcastle reps last night (again). I know you mean Stoke, but I am told that he is nowhere near fit. Why would Stoke take him in that state? Strange one. And I believe the Curbishly tale...but who is exactly in charge at Newcastle to make that decision? The tea lady?
Hughesy Posted July 24, 2009 Posted July 24, 2009 Movement starting to happen with clubs? Maybe the transfer window is about to finally start moving?! Sunderland - Cana, Maybe Chamakh Bolton - Rickets, Knight, Lee Stoke - Whitehead, Ashton Hull - Zamora Pompey - Split's striker
hi-jaq Posted July 24, 2009 Posted July 24, 2009 Nicko - Just had an idea how much do you think it would cost to get Ronaldo from Corinthians? I cant imagine he is on stupid wages either playing in the Brazalian League. Goal scoring record looks good 17 games 14 goals! Shirt sales would pretty much cover his wages! Are you talking about the old legend Ronaldo that used to play for Madrid? If you are there are 2 reasons he's plaing over there & that is because he's a crock & is overweight. The Brasilian league is slow & technical, he would'nt get through half a game here (another Christian Vieri me thinks!!!) Technically, the guy is very gifted & is an instinctive finisher, but unfortunately he's pretty much passed it, especially when it comes to playing in any league of Premiership calibre!!!
Amo Posted July 24, 2009 Posted July 24, 2009 No change from me. I'd rather play next door's cat up front. I would rather play the waiting game than panic buy Kevin Davies for £5m+. The money needs to be invested, not frittered away on 32 year olds.
alexanders Posted July 24, 2009 Posted July 24, 2009 Kevin Davies is still a no-go if you ask me. Doesn't score enough goals!
nicko Posted July 24, 2009 Author Posted July 24, 2009 The strangest move of the summer just got even stranger... http://www.football365.com/story/0,17033,8...5451455,00.html Anyone want to say this one isn't bizarre now?
adjam82 Posted July 24, 2009 Posted July 24, 2009 The strangest move of the summer just got even stranger... http://www.football365.com/story/0,17033,8...5451455,00.html Anyone want to say this one isn't bizarre now? Better to pay £10m +£2m (additions) now than , £15-16m in Jan when Spurs, Everton,Man City etc get involved i would have thought.
