Scott Dann to Arsenal/Villa

[cesus]

I could be wrong but I was under the impression that the 6-7 million figure was including his contract? Something about Brum not losing face about selling their prize asset and Rovers looking like they're actually spending money.

Yes I heard that too Gally, not sure if it was on here or twitter but the major fee was taking on/buying out the contract.

[Mattyblue]

£2million and it is still daylight robbery.

Maybe we have just been spoilt with some top class centre backs over the years, but as LeChuck says, I am struggling to think of a redeeming feature.

Come back Dailly and Peacock, all is forgiven.

Myles Anderson must be some footballer if he cannot get a game before this clown !!!!!

After all he is the new Chris Smalling ................

Can't stop smiling when I read from the LET that Scott Dann's contract is believed to have a £6M release clause. Atleast that's one trigger we don't have to fear to be trigged.

Very true , but that means we are stuck with a totally useless player...

We can sell him for less. Hopefully we sell him for less.

[Josh]

It wouldn't suprise me to see one of the newly promoted clubs buying both him and Roger Jonhson. I pray for the team that does if it happens

[Tim Southampton Rover]

The thing about Scott Dann is that his reputation is still high after his good 1st season at Birmingham whilst in the Premier League. I really hope a team is stupid enough to come in and meet his clause and think they're getting a bargain.

[Hughesy]

Saw a report yesterday which suggested both Reading & Southampton are looking at him, but also that Villa are still interested.

Please, take him!

[hesfromburn]

I hope they take him, watching a few of the youth games 1 or 2 of our defenders are leaps and bounds ahead of dann in ability, mobility and passion Id rather let them try make their mark in the championship that that useless lump Dann but alas.....KEAN. (But hopefully the need to get rid of players will push him out)

[Drover]

I agree, talking to friends who don't really watch rovers they still think that scott dann was a great signing. Somehow his reputation has remained intact despite frankly woeful performances for us. I think AM at villa is most likely to buy him as he was his manager at birmingham and so will probably hold his personal experiences with him over the fact he's been awful for us this season.

[Mafioso]

Dann is like Rovers version of Jean Alain Boumsong (ex-newcastle). Utter garbage yet somehow always found himself playing for some top teams. Including Juventus. Not that Dann is ever going to play for Juventus...

[Fraserkirky]

I have never seen a centre half ###### himself, like Dann does, when players ran at him with the ball. It's embarrising.

Get rid

[K-Hod]

I do hope people outside of East Lancs do start to realise that he in fact is gash, along with Roger Johnson.

2 relegations in 2 seasons is no co-incidence.

I hope they don't, then we may be able to get rid of the clown.

Haha fair point.

Well, eventually in the football world anyway!

Not as bad as his marking at set pieces and crosses.

[Stuart]

Would Dann not be an asset in the Championship?

He wouldn't be an asset at the soccerdome....

[Salgado Is A Hero]

In no way would he be an asset in the Championship.......altho others have pointed out things he is terrible at, imo the worst part of his game is his (lack of) ability to win headers and there will be a lot more of them to win next season.

We can also amazingly still get a relatively high transfer fee for him and should be sold as quickly as possible.

He left Birmingham after they were relegated so even if nobody originally bids he will surely try an engineer a move away.

Good riddance you poor excuse for a footballer.

[chaddyrovers]

sell him and get our money back. and buy a proper Centre Back for the Championship like Luke Chambers from Forest

[bluebruce]

:lol: That tickled me!

[bluefred]

he could go tommorrow for me he is ######

[Stand & Deliver]

Joke of a player! Sell Dann and keep Givet please!!!

[Rovers_Dan]

we dont need scott dann or 7th dann on our payroll really.
