Neal Posted July 6, 2011 Posted July 6, 2011 I may get flamed for this, but a better squad player than DJ Campbell at £1.25m? 13 goals last season in the top flight. I do see you're point. Although i do think that was a strong case for right player for the right club.

I agree DJ would be a good addition. I'm sure Balaji Rao will be happy with that one as well. The gold teeth will go down well with our Bling King!
pick32 Posted July 6, 2011 Posted July 6, 2011 The place will be a sad place without nicko its already starting to get depressing with the recent surge of newbies who the majority are coming across as pricks.
modes98 Posted July 6, 2011 Posted July 6, 2011 A warning or another constructive alternative? He can't handle having a single post unapproved so how many toys do you think would be thrown if he got a warning? Please stay on the topic of transfers. There is a Nicko topic if you wish to talk about that.
Hi Mack Posted July 6, 2011 Posted July 6, 2011 Agreed Have no problems what so ever if we want to shift sh!te to make space on our wage bill.... As long as the space is filled with quality Hughesy...if you get rid of them 3 the squad is tiny! Come on Venkys prove to us youre not a complete and utter bunch of a$$ holes!
booth Posted July 6, 2011 Posted July 6, 2011 Not for me, it was a one off season playing in a very attacking team. You may well be right, but I think I'd prefer to take a cheap punt on a player that has experienced and done it than an expensive punt on a guy who has done well in the Danish league but is otherwise an unknown quantity. Remember, we're talking about a squad player here.
roverandout Posted July 6, 2011 Posted July 6, 2011 i agree pick, i said the same thing on the nicko thread, they come on here spouting their mouths off, without the first bit of knowledge of what nicko has given to this site. T*ssers. Without his inside info, we wont have half as much to discuss or as many arguements one way or the other (in a freindly banter way) mods can you not contact his IM and ask him to come back, lol. i shouldnt call people t*ssers, what i mean is they act like t*ssers
Neal Posted July 6, 2011 Posted July 6, 2011 A warning or another constructive alternative? And something about a player we should sign. Edited just for you. He can't handle having a single post unapproved so how many toys do you think would be thrown if he got a warning? Please stay on the topic of transfers. There is a Nicko topic if you wish to talk about that. I'm quite aware of that. Take you're own advice.
Myles Anderson Posted July 6, 2011 Posted July 6, 2011 Back to 'I heard from my mum's mate that.....' then. Is Nicko back already?..
the swede Posted July 7, 2011 Posted July 7, 2011 What price are we talking? FCK wanted 75 million Danish kroner when there was talk of Al Hilal. Unless I am totally wrong, 75mil Danish is approximately €10m. And what's that, £9m?!
Presty On Tour Posted July 7, 2011 Posted July 7, 2011 So 77 pages into the Summer 2011 Transfer Window Part 3 and lets see, we've bought f all for the 1st team and sold out best prospect who will become an England international and possible future captain. I know it's a transfer window but are we just window shopping? Let go into the shop and buy someone for gods sake! No shirt sponsor, our manager faces drink driving charges but at least we have a new mascot hey!

Steve Moss Posted July 7, 2011 Posted July 7, 2011 the part of the story i dont get is the last part, we need to sell to raise the cash ? Perhaps its not the transfer fees which are the problem but the wage bill? We need to sell to make room on the wage bill, or to reduce it to a sustainable level? I imagine this may be an issue, despite JW's balancing, with the "improved" deals Kean gave out in January and the new Hoilett deal? Then you'll end up with bacon on your face I like bacon. Especially crispy bacon.
DanielMB Posted July 7, 2011 Posted July 7, 2011 Does this guy Nicko thinks he is Elvis or something??? Obviously a member on this board has to follow the same rules as everyone else. I enjoyed reading his posts because there "seemed" to be substance to them, but the last couple of weeks I havent really enjoyed being a Blackburn fan. My heart rate has gone up without reason on many occasions. First it was Piatti. YAYYYYY. Then it was Miranda. YAYYYY. Then it was Witsel. YAAAAY. Then it was NDoye. Hmmmmm. Then it was some guy from Bologna. Hmmmm... As much as I generally enjoy the summer transfermonths I would probably have preferred not knowing anything over the last 2-3 weeks
Athlete Posted July 7, 2011 Posted July 7, 2011 the part i liked also was the spending spree part, what is a spending spree to the shmenkys? 4.1 million? Oh the joys of next season, cant wait till we see jason roberts and n' doye hitting the side netting and our defence going missing. Why the hell is john jensen recommending players? he doesnt know sh*t about football at the highest level. He lived his whole career off one goal in 1992 of course he is going to recommend players in his homeland, just trying to promote danish football, which no offence to any danes on here, is sh*te. Jensen one of the worst players to wear an Arsenal shirt in the last 20 years.... oh how I'm not looking forward to next season at the moment....PJ gone ( wheres the money ) JJ not coming back , Samba on his way ??? Hoilet not yet signed , season ticket sales down , no shirt sponsor , no structure whatsoever in the club...need I go on...oh are any decent signings imminent ???? that at the moment is looking highly unlikely.. the 4/1 @ corals for the drop is looking inviting

But all the other things you write i totally agrre with you. Come on just sign one og two players and show us the new sponsor and new shirt !!
neophox Posted July 7, 2011 Posted July 7, 2011 I think new signings are imminent, surely there is players in talks involving agents...I think there will be moves when Keene and his squad returns at the end of the week. All the players are back at Brockhall on monday. My tip is to take a few days off from the messageboard and return to next week when the action is.

He was outstanding in the Euro92 championships in Sweden scoring a lovely goal in the final against Germany. Cheer up it could be worse

neophox Posted July 7, 2011 Posted July 7, 2011 Apparently we had a bid rejected for Wigan's James McCarthy....great player, and nice we're interested but to much money. http://www.joe.ie/football/football-news/wigan-reject-big-blackburn-bid-for-james-mccarthy-0013829-1
Mercer Posted July 7, 2011 Posted July 7, 2011 Agreed Have no problems what so ever if we want to shift sh!te to make space on our wage bill.... Only problem is that rubbish disposal is very often difficult and expensive, particularly where the items are contaminated. If Nicko is correct, we have gone in the space of two weeks from having about £50m to spend, to about £26m to nowt and we now have to sell first !!! Unfortunately, I suspect that he may well be right. We are in deep, deep trouble.
davulsukur Posted July 7, 2011 Posted July 7, 2011 Apparently we had a bid rejected for Wigan's James McCarthy....great player, and nice we're interested but to much money. http://www.joe.ie/football/football-news/wigan-reject-big-blackburn-bid-for-james-mccarthy-0013829-1 Thats alot of money. Decent player tho, but is he worth that much? Wigan fans would probably argue that he is.
Wing Wizard Windy Miller Posted July 7, 2011 Posted July 7, 2011 raise cash ??? Phil Jones money anyone ??? wheres that gone ??? In fairness, most people are amazed by the ridiculous values attached to the bulk of players in this window. Leading up to summer most of us could have picked 3 or 4 good players and priced them at under £26 million. It now seems that you need to add another £10mil onto that total. As frustrated as I am at the lack of signings, if we actually manage to sell some of the dross, it might well give us the extra money to sign quality, rather than some of the unknown players banded about at the moment. As well as balance out the wage structure to accomodate new signings.
