It seems Salgado is aware of Raul's feelings but some of this may not have translated right. :lol:

@dvicentecasado

Michel Salgado in @partidodelas12 "Raul d be delighted to come to Blackburn, but Shalke can not sell, he would throw up"

I can only assume that he would be too excited/nervous at the prospect of playing alongside Roberts - it must be a lot of pressure for him

You've been pretty accurate before if I remember correctly, so I'll take your word for it. Absolutely ridiculous if that's the case. No wonder we can't make any decent signings if players like Jones and Raul are being touted at 10+ million. Maybe they'll cave in beorr the end of the window.

Part of me is proud that our owners are unwilling to be ripped off, but most of me recognises that standing up to the established order alone generally leads to failure

Direct from Salgado tonight when I asked him about Raul 'been in talks for 3 weeks, he wants to come to Blackburn and his wife wants to move to England' said it won't happen 'as schalke don't want sell him' also said they will sign him on a free possible next summer, if we still want him.

Top bloke, Kean also said more or less same thing.

I'd love to know more about how you manage to have a chat with Salgado! :tu:

Hope this happens, but having read the thread, I've no idea who to believe!

It was the Rovers' award ceremony tonight I believe, I presume he spoke to him there

Good work agent Hughesy...Salgado must think your family are stalking him! :D

...Don't suppose you found out whether we're signing anyone else? :unsure:

Correct

I found out the targets....but id soon get spotted if I said the names. One (Midfielder) comes from a premier league side.

"Play for Steve who?" :unsure:

Are people totally ignoring these quotes? Raul would want a crack in the Prem at a club who aren't going to be scrapping for two chances per match. Maybe a team like Spurs or Newcastle. Might be nice to believe that it's not Raul who's rejected us but I don't see why Schalke would lie on his behalf. I don't really doubt that report and it has more credibility than Balague's hear say because it actually contains quotes.

We can have delusions of grandeur once we get our management act together!

Exactly.

This whole thing yesterday just looks like a publicity stunt.

All that has come out is the situation pretty well as it was two weeks ago give or take two phone calls saying the same things over again.

I think Guillem gets his information from Zac :lol:

Not sure thats the case philipl, it does seem like we actually made a bid for Raul this time around, realistic or not.

But I'm partly in agreement with you, yesterday was a good day to bury bad news.

The factory’s and offices of East Lancashire are today talking about Raul the striker, not Kean the drink driver, job done.

I would definately believe what Hughsey has said there and what Zac has been saying for the past few weeks and of course Makey, all those three are spot on as this fits with the information I posted that Salgado had tested the water not just this year, but last year also and Raul wanted to come!!

I'm not sure transfer rumors do it for Gav either.

I think Zac does though! Zac said this, Zac said that! Get a room! :lol:

:lol:

Just trying to give credit where credits due, Zac has taken some stick on here, some warranted might I add, but his information has been impeccable and that should be recognised.

Assuming his contract runs until the end of June - and he's on the £100k a week - that is about £4.5m in wages Schalke will be paying between now and his contract expiring. If they can get a £3m fee for a player that has fallen out with the manager, wants to leave, and will be able to move for nothing at the end of the season - then surely it's a good deal for them, essentially saving £7.5m.

I'm thinking Schalke have tried to start a bidding war to squeeze more out of us - but it sounds like they are prepared to let him go to me. Why else announce we've made an official bid.

I'm 50/50 on this happening - whereas a week ago I was probably 99/1 against it happening.

Pretty sure no ones information has been flawless = impeccable.

You really do need to get a room.

It kind of pisses me off that all the medias are writing:

Raul snubs Blackburn

Raul turn downs Blackburn

Raul rejecting Blackburn bid.

ITS SCHALKE WHO TURNS US DOWN - NOT RAUL!

they are only going off what Schalke's general manager Horst Heldt said in a interview but it was interesting what Guillem Balague tweeted last night about Raul being interested .. i am sure that Balague would be much more closer to Raul's people than Heldt.

it feels as though Rovers have been given the come on by Schalke only to get a German bitch slap when we try something serious :angry: Good-willie teasers
