Fraserkirky Posted September 1, 2009 Posted September 1, 2009 Thanks Nicko for your input in the last few months. and unleaded and hughesy i think who put the pic of salgado and sam up. Mixed feelings about our squad, but will just have to see how were gonna fair. Strange Big sam taking a holiday on deadline day to say the least, suspect there may have been a barny behind the scenes. High hopes for Junior,Nzonzi.

RIML Posted September 1, 2009 Posted September 1, 2009 I'd stuff that Georgie Thompson up her transfer window. I've had the pleasure of meeting her, I even put my arm around her I don't exactly look too impressed
nicko Posted September 1, 2009 Posted September 1, 2009 ROTHEN...talking out of his French bottom...he was turned down by Rovers, not the other way round. Never known so many deals set up and fall down in one day...and so many people talk garbage afterwards. JAMES...is stuck at a club he does not want to be with and who don't want him...and Spurs are trying to say they were never after him...sure. SHOREY...shown the door and wouldn't go through it. COUSIN...Hull screwed up and tried to get him to Burnley in the end...by that time Nugent was done...jokers. Two-bob players like Daryl Murphy and Rob Hulse turning down deals despite being told they can go. There will be about seven or eight moves coming out later if people can get their stories right with the FA.
Anti-Dingle-Brigade Posted September 1, 2009 Posted September 1, 2009 Zenden can move to us at any time, correct?
67splitscreen Posted September 1, 2009 Posted September 1, 2009 Bit surprised none of the big clubs didn't make a move, especially manure and L/Pool.
cruz Posted September 1, 2009 Posted September 1, 2009 Zenden can move to us at any time, correct? Hopefully not
Bobby G Posted September 1, 2009 Posted September 1, 2009 Any activity involving us? Even if it didnt materialize nicko...
cruz Posted September 1, 2009 Posted September 1, 2009 Bit surprised none of the big clubs didn't make a move, especially manure and L/Pool. According to the sun man utd are too big time to make last minute deals. That's despite signing Rooney at the death a few seasons back
nicko Posted September 1, 2009 Posted September 1, 2009 Any activity involving us? Even if it didnt materialize nicko... Zurab will go out on loan once the Championship window opens...although his wages are quite scary. The likeliest club for him have money and ambition. There had to be one - maybe even two - exits before anyone could come in on loan. Plenty of talk but no action. The bottom line is you will play half the season with an inadequate midfield. Kind of takes away from what was a decent window otherwise.
LeChuck Posted September 1, 2009 Posted September 1, 2009 The bottom line is you will play half the season with an inadequate midfield. If (and I appreciate it's a big 'if') Grella and Dunn can keep fit until January then I don't think it's as much of a problem as people are making out, especially as Emerton can't be too far off returning as well. There is also the possibility of Salgado going into midfield, which could be a stroke of genius. Edit: Random guess at Zurab's likely destination: QPR?
broadsword Posted September 1, 2009 Posted September 1, 2009 I've had the pleasure of meeting her, I even put my arm around her I don't exactly look too impressed Was this something to do with promotional work, with a different girl shown wearing each club's kit? It definitely looks familiar but I can't remember what it was for now?
broadsword Posted September 1, 2009 Posted September 1, 2009 A-ha! http://www.skysports.com/story/0,19528,15162_5226821,00.html
Ricky Posted September 1, 2009 Posted September 1, 2009 RIML was the rovers fan on the girls fanzone when we played Wigan.
1864roverite Posted September 1, 2009 Posted September 1, 2009 You mean the one with the big mouth (only joking riml)
EnglishChris Posted September 1, 2009 Posted September 1, 2009 Bit surprised none of the big clubs didn't make a move, especially manure and L/Pool. There skint so they couldn't
Fife Rover Posted September 1, 2009 Posted September 1, 2009 FIFE ROVER - Thank you for calling me doom and gloom because i said we wouldn't do any business today. Next time you want to listen to Nicko over John Williams, Sam Allardyce, and a guy that works for Blackburn Rovers then feel free too. Regards Oh dear! Sorry if I ruffled your feathers Paulo. It's just that I cannot remember seeing even one post from you where you are not moaning and mumping about something. A bit like Waggy and Spencey7. That's all.
nicko Posted September 1, 2009 Posted September 1, 2009 Before the sun finally sets and someone takes the thread away...a quick breakdown on who did well and badly in the window. MAN U - great money for Ronaldo, probably right to miss out on Tevez, Valencia will do ok in time...WEAKER LIVERPOOL - massive loss when Alonso left, Aquilani has a lot to live up to...WEAKER CHELSEA - no sign of the expensive Russian or the two other low-key signings...JUST THE SAME ARSENAL - good money for Toure and Adebayor, Vermaelen looks all right but could have done with a striker...JUST THE SAME EVERTON - great money for Lescott, over-paid for the Russian, Distin and Heitinga, but lack flair...JUST THE SAME MAN CITY - undoubtedly better but they should be, would fancy them more if they got Terry and Eto'o...MUCH STRONGER ASTON VILLA - lost the excellent Barry, signed ok in the end...JUST THE SAME TOTTENHAM - bought well, but missed out on a real keeper and a centre half and may regret it...A BIT STRONGER SUNDERLAND - good additions in midfield and a goalscorer in attack, overpaid for some and wanted a top centre half at the death...MUCH STRONGER BOLTON - Klasnic will have to bring goals because nobody else will, steady Premier signings...A BIT STRONGER FULHAM - will need a bigger squad to cope with a European run...A BIT WEAKER AS A RESULT WEST HAM - didn't do an awful lot in the end, got rid of the Italian worldie dodge pot Savio...JUST THE SAME ROVERS - great money for Roque and Warnock, mixed bag of signings, some good, some ok, some untried, weak in midfield...a bit stronger STOKE - tried for some big names and signed ok in the end...A BIT STRONGER WIGAN - lost some big players and signed some cheap and cheerful ones...WEAKER HULL - aimed for the stars and missed, lost their best player and signed some mixed ones...WEAKER PORTSMOUTH - late flurry saved them from humiliation, but still lost the basis of their side...MUCH MUCH WEAKER BIRMINGHAM - some odd signings, a lot will depend on Benitez...STRONGER BUT NOT ENOUGH WOLVES - a lot of new faces and some of them look ordinary, like Zubar and Halford...STRONGER BUT NOT ENOUGH BURNLEY - Coyley done a big job with the budget he has but may need to re-load in the next window...A BIT STRONGER
