[Archived] Rovers Might Have Been Sold?


Recommended Posts

I would have to disagree on that one...

If this guy is real he should go out and buy the entire Spain under-19 midfield and possibly defence.

It would cost maybe £30-40 million.

And in the next decade you would sell one a season or so and get your dough back.

Do I get a commission for that idea?

I have the comment a +1, what more do you want Alan?

Are you factoring in the cost of their wages ?

Can Keef point him in the right direction.

Sounds like the guy has a football advisor on board. A football agent, from what I gather. No harm there. It explains the leak and where it came out.

Edit - Maji beat me to it!

Any ideas who?

Kamy - when can you get some more info on here for us....their must be more you can disclose?

It'd be like now only we'd hopefully always be looking to replace with similar quality, unlike now.

I was only trying to suggest a theoretical way of balancing the books. I'd far rather see us keep hold of our best players in practice.

Interesting Hughes has gone into Fulham already reciting his proven mantra that he wants to turn Fulham into a permanent top ten club and that means signing and keeping hold of players not selling them.

Sigh.

In an ideal world I'd love to see us sign the worlds best kids and develop a team ala Wenger has been trying to do. I just think to do that we'd need to:

A: push for the title

B: get into and stay in the champions league.

We'd also have to start paying these 100K a week salaries and no matter who we have behind us those sorts of figures scare the carp out me. If we weren't I could see greener pastures becoming an issue.

Sheesh give the guys a break Hughesey - as soon as there is any more info they can legitimately disclose they will I'm sure.

A fantastic example.

They even still have some serious players, sanchez and zapater are both going to be top rate players. It s the best way forward for us IMO you just need that initial investment to get it all going. Commitment to the policy from the board and the manger.

We'd end up with the odd cup win every so often and could easily make the UEFA cup most years.

The issue for me would how would fans react to always seeing us looking to sell our best players?

My personal opinion is that the excitement of signing a big player is greater than the disappointment when they leave.

Dare to believe?

was in blues bar in the last hour and the staff were saying they needed to set refreshments up in the board room because it was in use this afternoon but obviously they didn't know as to why

Teymourian signing?

Sorry mate, but you are living in Cloud Cuckoo Land.....This has Portsmouth/Hull written all over it and I for one am very suspicious about all this...The odd cup win and top 4 every year...man, you are deluded.. :wacko:

The sound of this Indian is much better. The press conference rumour bothers me a lot. But Nicko should know if there was a press conference. Shouldn´t you be there Nicko?

There is no press conference, why would it worry you?

There's no press conference. At the best there might be the signal for the start of due diligence. That could take four to six weeks.

I'm not hanging around outside Ewood for that long, thanks all the same. ;)

It is the only sustainable model we could follow really.

As you say, it requires initial investment,but after that it should pay for itself, and then some.

It's what really still irks me about the end of Hughes' reign. There was a man who could make huge profits when he was afforded money to invest, the current owners just didn't have the courage to support him.

Cashier in the club shop will know more, no need to hang around out side.

I'm sure there'll be a standard JW response relayed by "the Cryer" later today or tomorrow.

I'll take a pound for each of the following:

"Real and ongoing interest".

"More than one interested party".

"Keeping the powder dry".

"Back to a trading club".

"Difficult since Jack died".
