Bruno has been such a rousing success I can see why they'd want him back to do more business.

Perhaps he could get rid rid of Bruno for us instead.

Frightening John.

What happened to the idea that the manager told the club who he wanted?

It is fine, we have a puppet as manager who is happy to go along with party line.

Regardless of the true ownership of the club, it appears if you question the Rao family, you won't be around much longer working for BRFC.

So we are now getting transfer advice from a Brazilian guy who is manager of a food company??

Bring back Anderson...

How many pages before our first signing? 50? 100?

As ever great pic and exactly my thoughts.. first actual perm signing reckon we will be hitting 150plus if at all this window.

We've already tried that den, it was called Sam Allardyce.

I can't believe, if this guy really brought in Bruno, that he is being asked to get involved with the club again - unless it's to sell Bruno?

If we are paying Bruno ANYTHING, surely it's the worst piece of business ever done by a football club?? At least Myles is a young lad.

Good to see we're addressing the positions that need strengthening most by loaning a winger from one of our relegation rivals....

You have a short memory Stuart.

Ever heard of Vinny Grella?

At least Grella has had some pitch time. Expensive hourly rate mind but we have at least got SOMETHING for our money!

not sure if this has been discussed , never heard of him tbh

We were linked with him years ago...I can't remember if it was under Hughes, or whether it was under Ince after Bentley left.

Edit: Here you go, it was under Ince: http://www.people.co.uk/sport/football/news/tm_headline=hotline-guv-nor-to-net-brett-in-pound-2-5m-deal&method=full&objectid=20718718&siteid=93463-name_page.html

He's a second striker with an unflattering goal record...don't we have enough of those already?!

You just couldn't make it up could you?

Rovers are bringing in the manager of a battery chicken farm/fast food outlet in Brazil to help with transfers and are signing someone called "Modeste" on his say so. Hopefully doesn't match his name as well as fellow Brazilian Rafael Sheidt did a few years ago.

How the rest of the football world must be laughing at us.

22 the other day, a bit old for a development player. Bet his team mates like him though as he's the only 1 who can get served in the Spar.

I know a guy who works at Funky Fried Chicken in Buenos Aires, maybe we can get him over and pick his brains about the young Argentinian talent about at the mo?

Only with Venkys :wacko:

18th Jan and the Raos need to fly in some agent from Brazil to try to get players into Ewood. So they pay this Brazilian who knows nowt about English football - then pay the agent of any player he finds.

The truth is that the Raos aren't capable are they. It's just so obvious that they're totally clueless. Sooner they're gone, sooner someone else can come in and try to sort out the mess that's left.

They are clueless den, no problem there, many foreign owners are.

It is the pig headedness of them that really gets me. Mad cap ideas like Brazillian headhunters, using SEM, Pini Zahavi, nomarks like Vinny Rao running a PL football club. When all that was needed was to maintain the existing structures.

Harsh. Maybe he's part of the Venky's Directors Elite Development squad? He's only 25 after all. He was the new "go man" at Rovers according to The People. Shame he didn't have time to go to the AGM.

It's almost like they're compiling a complete guide in how NOT to run a football club.

"In today's installment we look at how to continually make an ar*e of Transfer Windows"

Step 1 - Never spend your own money. Always borrow, even if you can't pay it back.

Step 2 - If you can't borrow any more money, sell your best players until you have enough.

Step 3 - Have your manager come out a few weeks before the window opens and proclaim he will do his business early so his signings can "hit the ground running".

Step 4 - Have a manager of a Brazilian Chicken Company recruit your talent and allow him to pay agents whatever fee they demand. Brazilian Chicken Managers always know best.

Stay tuned for Part two when we'll be going through how to sign full backs that never get near the squad but make their agents and or fathers very happy.

:blink:

Norwich had bid accepted by Leeds for Jonny Howson.

We should be trying to sign him! Great talent and a real midfield general in the Batty mould. If Bradley Johnson can cut it in the Premiership, Howson certainly can.
