Klasnic wa son silly money at Bolton, and he has heart problems or something, rarly started a game for Bolton last season and wa smostly used as a substitute. Not nsaying he isn't a good impact player to bring on but I think we already have one of those in Gomes perhaps.

Is Klasnic a freebie?

As far as I know. He left Bolton as his contract was up. He always scored goals for them. I think he got 8 or 9 league goals last season. He had a kidney transplant a few years ago, but he is long recovered from that. I'd love him at Rovers.

Typical, we persuade a young talented player to drop down a division, presumably pay him over the odds then this happens.

This could be a hammer blow to our chances this season, the qualty of his replacement will imo make or break the campaign.

The only slightly silver lining I can see in this is that if we are focussed into acquiring at least one quality replacement, then if Best comes back firing towards the end of the season we might have two extremely good strikers at this level which otherwise we may not have had.

On a separate issue I'm very disappointed to see Rochina seems to be being discarded judging by preseason. A hugely talented player imo, who should be being given his head now imo. Instead he seems to be being given the same treatment as the talentless Goodwillie.

A case of having oil in your back garden and not realising it's there.

he might be useful in the championship, just like jason roberts!

That's a gross insult to Jason. Not once did I ever see Modeste in control of a ball. It seemed to bounce off him at all sorts of angles. I don't think I have ever seen such a clumsy player.

No, a case having a moron as a manager and him not knowing what is in front of his nose.

Or, far more likely, something very, very weird is going in at BRFC. As always, since Venkys took over.

What a shame for Leon Best but one player injured pre season shouldnt handicap Rovers season. In fact the timing couldnt have been any better for the amount of time Rovers have now to get a more than suitable replacement in especially when they've not finished recruiting for the new season or had they.

No excuses.

The following is from a Newcastle Utd. season-ticket-holding pal of mine in response to my asking him how fit Best was when with them.

Leon started last season well but then was injured for about 3 months. Just when he got back he was crocked again. He has spent at least 60% of his time with us injured. When Hughton bought him, he played a handful of games before being out for 4 months again!

In Goodwillie and Nuno we have two strikers good enough for this level. We also have the likes of Formica, Dunn and Rochina who can fill in. Therefore, we do need another striker but not necessarily two.

Defence remains a worry. If Martin Olsson leaves then who do we have at left back? Givet? What if he leaves or gets injured? I think another defender and a forward would see us better than just two forwards.

Are you serious FLB? Nuno hasn't kicked a ball in anger in the Champioship yet and Goodwillie is just plain awful.

No disrespect to the earlier posters on this page of this thread [they were, after all, posting when "He who shall not be named" was our "manager" (allegedly)], but isn't interesting how things can change?

We're on the verge of Best coming back into consideration for selection in a squad which, under a manager who knows what he's doing, is

F L Y I N G?!! ;)

voldermort has never been designated as our manager as far as I can remember, nearest he got was working for free, when sleeping in a cupboard,

allegedly
