Considering the number of times we have paid high fees for players and they've turned out to be flops, is it such a bad thing paying low fees? Some of our better players of recent times have been bought on the cheap and some of them have been players that the majority of people had never even heard of.

[A cup of beans]

and silva and mackie are still running

exactly! Getting themselves as far away from Rovers as they can.

[roverandout]

yes gumbi but they were chosen by managers who knew what the hell they were doing not an incompetent buffoon like kean, he gives contracts to every tom dick and harry who is under 20 so that he claim 'we are a young team, it will take a few years before we can get in the champions league' ######.

[Pitty]

so we have a chapionship winning sqaud with the likes of rooney, gerrard, irwin,smalling,gattuso,batistuta, I don't see what all the fuss or panic is about!

[Miker]

I imagine Kean even picks out his fruits and vegetables at the grocery by finding resemblances to football players.

He probably has a collection of potatoes at home he thinks looks like Spain's World Cup winning squad.

[Rovers_Dan]

i cant see any of these portugeuse guys having any impact at all.

you need serious grafters in this league. its no league for chuck them in and hope for the best.

[Ricky]

Hardly class Taraabt as a serious grafter. He wasnt too shabby in that league.

Yes, that's 1 player, not a team full of them, like at Ewood.

[roverandout]

and taraabt was actually a very good player before he joined qpr, these guys are nobodies, (the youngsters im talking about)

[DavidMailsTightPerm]

Should we not give them a chance. I know that Kean has brought them in - but at the end of the day they are Rovers players, and should be given our support - especially as young players. I'll reserve judgement on how good or bad they are until they have been given a decent chance.

[JAL]

So much for developing British talent David Bernstein hang your head in shame.

[Rovers_Dan]

He's gonna be the next Paulo Futre this kid..
