[Archived] Ins and outs

Doubt it, he was practically kissing the badge at full time on boxing day

He was clapping the Darwen End. I was quite impressed he was doing that even though there were boos resonating around the ground.

Really hope Robbo stays.

Yep, was poor for the first season or so but has really come into his own in the last 12 months.

Don't blame Robinson for wanting to leave. Add him to a growing list of disaffected players following the sacking of Sam.

Meanwhile Steve Kean has made a red-eye trip to India to get some answers to his Blackburn players’ questions about new owners Venky’s plans.

“I told them I would meet the owners and try and get some information to them” he said.

“I spoke to them on Monday and the senior players are fine. That was their initial reaction. Since I have come back and explained to them what is happening there has not been a negative vibe.

“They have been reassured about what is happening. As soon as the information has got back to them there hasn’t been anything negative.

“I think the players are excited by the future here. I spoke to them and explained what the idea was and what was going to be happening and they were more than happy.

“(Keeper) Paul Robinson came to me on an individual basis and said he wants to be part of it long term, so that is positive.’’

Skipper Chris Samba had put in a transfer request, but Kean said: “I spoke to Chris directly. When I told him the plans in place for the transfer window he was very positive.”

Looks like Robinson is happy and maybe Samba will stay too !!

Where has this "list" come from??

We all know Samba wants out.....and that's about it.

Peds, people said he was unhappy and wanted to leave. Turns out he wants to stay, said so on his personal blog.

Diouf, people said he was unhappy and wanted to leave. Yet he's said he wants to stay and is happy at Rovers, says so on his personal twitter page. The same is to be said about big JR.

When do we lose Emerton?, any more off besides?.

Only strikers mentioned in the Mirror are Piqyournose and the young lad at Palace. Unless I've missed one.

Will Emo not be off to the Asian Cup? I think the squad is announced today.

[unleaded]

Demba Ba of German club Hoffenheim IS the player like Nicko said that Rovers have been scouting and i for one hope we go for.........Has an excellent record and is in the right age group for the new owners........Pacy and strong and knows where the back of the net is....had a knee problem this year but has got back into his scoring tride...........We need to add pace to the team and that goes for all the signings that we make...............

[Miker]

Demba Ba would be fantastic.

Will Emo not be off to the Asian Cup? I think the squad is announced today.

Completely forgot about that... we'll be in serious trouble if he is. We have no one available to play defensive midfield in the squad if that's the case. We'll have to give Linganzi a go there, or another option is to try out Salgado. Except then we'd have to play Chimbonda...

[RoyRover]

Demba Ba? Yes please. And if you want to add his two Bosnian team mates, striker Vedad Ibišević and midfielder Sejad Salihović to that list I wouldn't be complaining.

Correct that is what I was suggesting, there's always one ^.

As for Demba Ba, maybe Diouf can can get him rapping on the door of Venky's along with Akan.

Better than I was expecting, are we likely to get him ahead of West ham?

Now what about the midfield

[booth]

Osvaldo please!

[Torgeir]

Demba Ba would be great, wonder what the price is though. So West Ham are in the driver seat and we're currently just waiting to see if all the agents manage to mess up that deal?

[Brfcrule1]

one player who I would like to see us sign is Vladmir Weiss of Rangers am not sure if he is on-loan from Man City to Rangers or they have bought himdefinitely got the pace needed knows where the back of the net is and would add some much needed pace scored a great goal for Rangers from Boxing day although is in the right age bracket depends on fees & wages.

[T4E]

Weiss is really raw. Huge talent but he's got a long way to go before he can make an impact at the level we require.

[chaddyrovers]

Demba ba would be a great signing for us. just the type of player we need up front. when I seen him play, always played well.

here the article

[Hughesy]

Wiess would be a good signing for the future, aswell as offering us another option for late on in games....he did ok at Bolton.

We'll be in serious trouble if Emerton goes off to the Asia Cup?

Seriously? Have you watched the guy play recently? It'll be a blessing in disguise, he's been absolute @#/?.

[Grabbi Graeme]

I was in the post match press conference after the Stoke game and Steve Kean said he'd had a one to one chat with Paul Robinson and Robinson had told him he was here for the long term.

Let's hope he's as good as his word then

[Roberto Policano]

it's not that Okaka is it???

Off to Bari on 6 month loan,he'd relegate you.

Just read in calciomercato.com:

Osvaldo is coming to England, Fulham and Blackburn Rovers are the only teams who made offers for him.

Osvaldo only joined in the Summer for £4 million,playing well & scoring goals,Be surprised if he leaves Spain.

Goal.com have an article with Osvaldos agent, links us and city with him. Would post but on my iphone

City back in for Dzeko.Hard deal to do,but you never know.

Demba Ba of German club Hoffenheim IS the player like Nicko said that Rovers have been scouting and i for one hope we go for.........Has an excellent record and is in the right age group for the new owners........Pacy and strong and knows where the back of the net is....had a knee problem this year but has got back into his scoring tride...........We need to add pace to the team and that goes for all the signings that we make...............

I'll second that.He would be perfect for you,has all the tools to succeed in the Premier League.

The young lad Peniel Mlapa looks a talent at Hoffenheim.Chinedu Obasi is decent too,but fail's to underpin his pace with Composure i always feel.

Cristian Rodriguez is being touted all over the place at the Moment at 6 million Euros.I would be interested in doing that deal if i was your owner.

Not saying he's been good, but he's the only experienced player currently available to play the role. Who are we going to stick in there now?
