Transfer Window Chat Thread

Normally this is stipulated in company insurance.

Very very frustrating if you are the one arranging!

Anyway.... Back on topic

[otto man]

begs a question.. that being.. why though, doesnt it ??

No not really Zac. Heard of the MU Munich disaster? Need I say more?

Strange united all flew on one plane on the tour to the US this week

[roversmad95]

Don't worry guys, as I told u a few week back we never make big signings till I'm on hol. I'm in the airport now so we will probably spend money this week for a change.

Have a good holiday and I hope your right.

Come on rovers give us something good to talk about!

3 weeks to the big kick off and our potential 1st 6 pointer of the season so far...Benjani , Phil Jones , Jermaine Jones , RSC , Mame Diouff all gone none replaced as yet our squad was threadbare last season

can anyone actually have any proper info of any incomings ???? Because so far on this board , other boards and the press the nearest we have had is a free transfer ( who looks mightily over weight and flopped in la liga ) who apparently there was wrangling over his original contract and agents fees ( for god sake the guy was on a free ) and a defender who has just been relegated with Monaco ( anyone with half a brain would of known Rovers would struggle with a work permit )...

Got to send them on different planes for insurance reasons I think, so not that odd

Dunny and robbo must be flying from Leeds bradford then as they were both out on the ###### in Harrogate last night!

[UtopianParadigm]

I just imagine they planned on going to HK from India, so they hadn't booked flights from the UK and couldn't get everyone on the same flight last minute..? Are we that desperate that we're looking for gossip in travel itineraries?

Just take a quick look around UP, You can easily answer that one yourself.

Well that being the case, someone hasn't learned any lessons have they?

Yeah, bit of a daft question, really!

Haha did you witness this?? Say they put away a serious amount! Was Kean driving them home??

[RoyRover]

and a defender who has just been relegated with Monaco

I had consider this too and was surprised that no one had bought it up. Maybe / hopefully the goalkeeper, the left back, right back and the other centre back were the problem!

What difference does it make he was relegated?? Does that mean Charlie Adam is a poor player? and why is there such interest in Scott Dann and Roger Johnson? Cant rule him out over that lads...

Spot on - just because they were relegated doesn`t mean anything in that respect.

Quite funny that as last time I went to Greece we sold shearer, guess were i went this summer on hol (first time since)?

Hes only 22, 6ft 2in and a full international, could be a diamond in the rough and could turnout to be excellent value if the 2.5m pricetag is correct which sounds about right..he would be more than welcomed..

No doesnt mean anything..except we didnt sign him , we wouldnt have a got work permit anyway....so why try and pick holes in my comment as my point being those were the 2 nearest coming in

"I was away on holiday with my girlfriend when I got a phone call from the boss saying he was interested and keen and things progressed from there. So here I am now.

"It was an unbelievable feeling. I picked the phone up and he says, in his Scottish voice, 'It's Sir Alex'. It's what anyone dreams of, for that phone call to happen.

Just copied this from an interview with Phil Jones on Sky website - is this not tapping up of the very highest order???

Not picking holes in your comment, just didn`t agree with it Athlete, hence posting my own view point on your comment which is the aim fo the message board - don`t be so sensitive. Agreed we didn`t sign him, presumably because of the publicised money issues and the passport troubles.

It was me who commented on your post, but seems to me the relegation was an issue with you but then you quickly backtracked once it was highlighted and Taggart agreed that he shoudlnt be written off and you played the work permit card...either way looks unlikely now so no point harping on...

[Athlete]

Think you'll agree with benjani now no longer with us as well we need bodies in as cover as well as the positions we are short in

If it isnt tapping up, i dont know what is.
