[Archived] Transfer Deadline Day

[Steve Moss]

These administrative problems merely confirm my opinion that our Board isn't good enough.

Venkys need to get rid of Agnew, Shebby and Shaw. They're being made a laughing stock.

[sparky12]

More bothered about the Thomas deal than dj... Salgado sums it up perfectly, this club is unbelievable

[Ossydave]

Michel Salgado‏@TheRealSalgado

I've heard DJ Campbell transfer has fallen through. Shambles

I can live without Campbell deal going through, Thomas one is a lot more important in my eyes! Best resuming full training is almost like signing a new striker, although we musn't rush him back.....

[T.J.Newton]

I think the biggest stumbling block has been greedy fat s### Robinson refusing to leave without a big pay off(Letting him go on a free to begin with was a great gesture), he would have been walking straight into a new job at west ham, so wouldn't even have missed a paycheck!!!(and earlier somebody called him a 'great servant', parasite more like)

[pick32]

Hear Simon vuckevic is a free, we need a right mid?

How many loans are we allowed when the window opens next week?

[RibbleValleyRover]

Andrew Cryer ‏@CryerRovers

I know Sky are saying DJ deal off but, like before, waiting for Rovers to confirm. Spoke to them a few minutes ago and talks were ongoing

SSN have a reporter in the reception area of the QPR building, I think it's likely his info is accurate.

I guess we could try and get these players on loan, but who knows the competition may be more fierce for these players when it comes to loans. Clubs might have not wanted to sign them on a permanent deal but would be interested on a loan.

[Salgado Is A Hero]

Thomas has to happen. We have other strikers if Campbell doesn't come through, but we have no wingers left at the club.

If neither of these deals come off then this window has been a disaster.

In fairness, there is King, Nunes, Kazim and both Olssons. Even Pedersen.

But yea that was a shocking window as it stands, although there is still the loan window.

Personally... Whats the fuss about this not going through? I think it shows how desperate the fans have got, clinging to the hope of signing a 31 year old DJ Campbell

Rhodes with Best, or Nuno, or CKR, or Goodwillie will do till June- I think this may be a blessing, as I don't particularly rate DJ. He fits in the Chopra, Bothroyd, and Ebanks Blake category for me.

The latter two have been excellent in this league in the past.

We have one of the best defensive records in the league last time I checked.

Yep, 6th best.......so scoring goals is a main issue.

Obviously letting Rochina go isn't going to help but playing a decent formation (4-4-2) will and Campbell would have been good with Rhodes. It would have meant us not being really worried about Best getting injured again. I'm sure I read a comment concerning Best saying he came back from a long lay-off only to be injured again straight away.

[broadsword]

Just to summarise:

In: Anton Thingy

Out: Rochina, Formica, Slew, Vuckcevic, ?????

[chaddyrovers]

Thomas Evans‏@TomboTheGreat

Latest rumour floating about is that Thomas will be allowed to go through but Campbell definately off.

[greggyk]

Just bring them in on loan...probably for the best anyway

[LDRover]

Can't help but wonder if this was the plan all along.

Funny how the paperwork went out on time for our outgoing players isn't it.

Exactly!!!!

[Baz]

Not that bothered about Campbell, but it speaks volumes if we messed up paperwork. More concerned we didnt do a deal for CM and CH where we are desperately short. Thomas, if happening, would be an ok deal although i think he's inconsistent.

[Ucntseeme]

Academy kids ?

BLACKBURN LATEST

Blackburn haven't given up on signing DJ Campbell - we understand that they are talking to the Premier League and Football League in hope of having the deal ratified.

(BBC)

[Willie Eckerslike]

Striker, striker, striker, winger, winger, winger

Mr Appleton, why is nobody complaining about the centre midfielders you just failed to bring in??

Do you think everything is just fine in that area or are your hands being tied?

[T.J.Newton]

don't really see how Appleton can be blamed, he gives a list of who he wants and who he doesn't, its the boards job to get the deals done on time(i'm guessing he will be more pished off than anybody)

[cn174]

I dunno what is more depressing - the fact that our main target was DJ Campbell or that we seemingly cant even get that sorted. Just @#/?.

[Tom]

I imagine Shebby will be delighted about this as apparently he hasn't been around today so it gives him some ammo against Shagnew

We'll be hearing a lot about this

[keaney23]

Maybe this is Shebbys way of payback to Shaw and Agnew

Agnew: Il just fax the paper work

Shaw: Yeah would you please I am just about to tuck into this pie

Shebby: Agnew hold on , Let me do the work , I feel surplus to requirements since you two took a honey moon to my country. I will Fax the paper work and get these two over the line......................... KEAN YOU!!!

[cn174]

Apart from his list of Thomas and Campbell is a bit crap?

[dwayne cage]

Think DJ would have been a good acquisition and would compliment Rhodes. Unbelievable if we messed up paperwork. We are a dying club if a multi-million pound organisation cannot sort paperwork.

Aston Villa FC‏@AVFC0fficial

TRANSFER UPDATE: David Goodwillie joins on season long loan from Blackburn Rovers

Idiot ! Ha

[T.J.Newton]

Maybe this is Shebbys way of payback to Shaw and Agnew

Agnew: Il just fax the paper work

Shaw: Yeah would you please I am just about to tuck into this pie

Shebby: Agnew hold on , Let me do the work , I feel surplus to requirements since you two took a honey moon to my country. I will Fax the paper work and get these two over the line......................... KEAN YOU!!!

i think shebbys been hiding all the fax paper and throttling all the internet speeds at Ewood today.

You call me an idiot but you quote a fake villa account and quote the lunatic aka West Sussex rover ... He's a loopy loo fruitcake.
