a lot of my friends have been telling me that we are still being linked with Robbie Keane and David Bentley, but I thought that their names had been mentioned alongside Roque as Sams targets before he got the boot (which I am still riling about but as a fan I have to move on and get behind the team).

But I have also seen in papers and on net that our "BIG" Budget is no more that £5,000,000 which is ridiculous if we want to achieve anything this season.

Realistic targets, i feel that David Wheater would be worth a shout given that Mowbray has come out and said they are possibly looking to sell him as he can leave on a bosman at end of season, i have always rated him as a centre back he is still young and would be an ideal partner for jones in the future (if we manage to hold on to him).

I would love to see Robbie Keane at rovers and also Bentley but what are peoples thoughts on our realistic targets for January?

The kitty is at least £10,000,000 Here's Nicko's article pal http://www.mirrorfootball.co.uk/news/Blackburn-caretaker-manager-Steve-Kean-reveals-how-he-wooed-new-owners-Venky-with-a-dash-to-India-article656479.html

Wheater is a decent player and would be a good partner for Jones. I wouldn't mind Taylor from Newcastle either. Apparently Woodgate's gpoing out on loan so for a short term fix that wouldn't be bad either.

Wheater isn't what you need. Jones is seen - just now - as a midfield player and the manager said yesterday that this made the search for midfield players more urgent in the window.

From what I can pick up today there could be TWO central midfielders now on the radar.

Woodgate? No need. You gave central defenders of good quality. No point wasting your one remaining Prem loan on him.

From his comments, Grella, Andrews and Nnonzi were cited as long term injuries by Kean - therefore central midfield player is def on the radar.

haha woodgate , I would rather have woody from toy story, much more reliable

If JW is fit he's one of the best in the business.But I know what you mean about reliability,he makes Grella look like a 30 game-per-season man. However if we needed a CB(if Samba goes) and as a loan signing...I reckon he would be worth a punt.

Are the CM's both established in the premier league Nicko?

Please say at least one of them's an attacking midfielder/playmaker?

Wonder if Rovers would be interest in Dutch striker Ricky van Wolfswinkel of Utrecht? Heard that Liverpool have put a bid in for him. In Holland they called him the new Van Basten. He is only 21 years old and the sort of player we should be looking at and to bring in imo!

Good Shout Chaddy.

Curtis Davies... loaned out to leicester, fallen out of favour at villa who paid 10 million for him, young and english can we get hold of him and make him what he was once touted?

Still tickles me every time i see/hear that name. :D

Kean said on Rovers Player that we currently don't have a recognised central midfielder, so that area would be a priority in January.

He's convinced Samba to stay? Is that fact?

Not a fact but Keen said in the radio interview he has has a chat with Samba and reassured that the club was looking to move forward and improve and since the chat has a smile on his face again so sounds good :)
