67splitscreen Posted October 10, 2010 Posted October 10, 2010 You would think, it would be a little foolish to let him leave at the end of the season for nothing, if there is the slightest chance of puling a couple of mil for him, or making the squad, if it costs us 10k a week on another two year deal give him a chance. I doubt Palace would be offering much more per week. I've always thought it also helps players progress in the squad, when they are from the same class, so to say. Gunning, Jones, Hanley and Marrow would be a great haul from the class of 2008.

Gunning, Jones, Hanley and Marrow would be a great haul from the class of 2008. It's amazing how many good young players we have at the moment. You could put out a pretty decent team where everyone is 22 or under:- ----------------------Fielding Hanley------Jones------Gunning-----Olsson Hoilett------Nzonzi------Linganzi----Marrow -----------------Kalinic-----M Diouf Obviously would get tanked in the Premiership, but it has been a long time since we could get anywhere near that sort of quality in the youth ranks.
budha Posted October 16, 2010 Posted October 16, 2010 Fielding between the posts at Pride Park against Preston.
Ricky Posted October 16, 2010 Posted October 16, 2010 Nick blackman has just scored away at Rangers for Motherwell. Big goal for a young lad.
philipl Posted October 17, 2010 Posted October 17, 2010 Seems that Fielding was rock solid on the rare occasions Preston attacked and pulled off an excellent double save.
Amo Posted October 25, 2010 Posted October 25, 2010 Current opinion of Alex Marrow. Have your sarcasm detectors at the ready.
A cup of beans Posted October 25, 2010 Posted October 25, 2010 "Hey Palace fans, just a Blackburn fan swinging by for a quick natter. I was glad to see you guys stay up last year. I've always had a soft-spot for Palace, for reasons I'm not quite sure." visiting rover knows his rovers history then!
Commondore Posted October 25, 2010 Author Posted October 25, 2010 Nick blackman has just scored away at Rangers for Motherwell. Big goal for a young lad. As of now 4 goals in 9 starts and 2 appearances as a sub.
joey_big_nose Posted October 25, 2010 Posted October 25, 2010 In all honesty I think we should bring Marrow and Blackman back. We are utterly desperate in midfield and up front. We need more options.
DanLad Posted October 26, 2010 Posted October 26, 2010 In all honesty I think we should bring Marrow and Blackman back. We are utterly desperate in midfield and up front. We need more options. Marrow would add some backbone to the side...
LeftWinger Posted October 27, 2010 Posted October 27, 2010 Current opinion of Alex Marrow. Have your sarcasm detectors at the ready. Must be horrible having that corrupt, ego maniac, anti-football tosspot as your manager....Jack Walker - a proper football fan/owner if ever there was one - must be turning in his grave.
Commondore Posted November 7, 2010 Author Posted November 7, 2010 Blackman scored again today, against Iverness.
JamieUK Posted November 10, 2010 Posted November 10, 2010 Nick Blackman has 2 goals already tonight. 7 goals in 10 starts now...
G Somerset Rover Posted November 10, 2010 Posted November 10, 2010 Hat-trick now. I know Boyd was made to look like a young Romario in Scotland and can't even bag goals in the Championship, but has anyone seen much of Blackman? Sounds promising anyway.
Ricky Posted November 10, 2010 Posted November 10, 2010 8 in 10 is a great return, especially as he's not at one of the top two teams up there.
Backroom Tom Posted November 10, 2010 Backroom Posted November 10, 2010 Blackman has surely earned a crack at the Prem, he couldn't have done much more than he has done on loan.
LeChuck Posted November 10, 2010 Posted November 10, 2010 Blackman has surely earned a crack at the Prem, he couldn't have done much more than he has done on loan. Maybe, although Anthony Stokes immediately springs to mind due to what he did at Falkirk on loan. To be honest we have enough strikers at the moment, but he could definitely be useful when M. Diouf goes back to Utd (we can't keep loaning strikers to fill up our squad forever).
Hughesy Posted November 10, 2010 Posted November 10, 2010 but has anyone seen much of Blackman? Sounds promising anyway. Yes - and to be honest he was very poor on all 4 occasions. However iv heard he's a player who can be awful one week & quality the next...perhaps a confidence player, hence the goal return?
Miker Posted November 10, 2010 Posted November 10, 2010 Was Blackman an Ince or Sam signing? I can't remember anymore...
Backroom Tom Posted November 10, 2010 Backroom Posted November 10, 2010 Sam signed him after Ince set up the deal I think
Ricky Posted November 11, 2010 Posted November 11, 2010 Each of his 3 goals last night was a tap in, all 3 were also tapped in past rovers old boy Peter enckelman.
m1st Posted November 11, 2010 Posted November 11, 2010 Hat-trick now. I know Boyd was made to look like a young Romario in Scotland and can't even bag goals in the Championship, but has anyone seen much of Blackman? Sounds promising anyway. I saw him in the pre-season friendly at Fleetwood - he & Roberts were up front and he didn't have the best of games. I'm staying with friends in Glasgow in a couple of weekends time and am hoping to talk my exiled-Mackem mate up there to go to the Motherwell vs. Hearts game on the Sunday afternoon.
AJW Posted November 11, 2010 Posted November 11, 2010 Not good enough for PL imo , but playing and scoring up there will do him nor rovers any harm , think he may stay there till end of season and then leave for a championship club for 6 figure sum in the summer , good business for rovers
PAFELL Posted November 12, 2010 Posted November 12, 2010 Blackman has surely earned a crack at the Prem, he couldn't have done much more than he has done on loan. Is not that the whole idea of loaning out players at times. It gives those player much needed match time. I hope that this helps both Rovers and Blackman. Though as he is on Rovers books, he is doing the sell on bit very good at the moment. Especially if Sam considers him not good enough for the prem. Scottish teams will start being interested if he contiunes scoring goals the way he is doing now. Bothroyd at cardiff, could not do it at Rovers, yet is scoring now. The championship is a very hard league in my view.
