Moderation Lead K-Hod Posted July 20, 2013 Moderation Lead Posted July 20, 2013 See we have another 'bad un' lined up, all the way form the UEA.What on earth is going on at the club, why cant Rovers attract some decent players, or is it that the agent the club uses doesnt have any decent players or contacts. All these second rate players that Rovers are looking at aint making Gary Bowyer look good. I don't even think you know what you're on about any more!!He's a trialist. If he's good, we sign, if not, we walk away. Best not to dismiss players before they're even signed based on YouTube footage....

SoldierMo Posted July 20, 2013 Posted July 20, 2013 The UAE kid seems to be a very fine player according to few journalists....hope he does sign snd prove few people wrong
Stuart Posted July 20, 2013 Posted July 20, 2013 If GB is going to put his money on the likes of Josh Lowe then don't think he's the man for Me He's worked a long time with this Liowe and if he can't see that he's crap and very limited then says a lot of GB........ Interesting that soon as David Dunn and Williamson signed there new contracts they never play another game so far . Hope somebody in the medical team is held accountable ... For my take Abdul-Rahman is a step above lcompared to Lowe ....jobs for the boys comes to mind ...think if your local it covers a lot of faults .. Jobs for the boys?? Give it a rest. (That's the second time you've had a snide swipe about this Abdulrahman bloke - are you his brother? Agent?Have you seen the state of the English game? We (as a footballing nation) don't offer home grown players nearly enough playing time, let alone do them any favours. Bringing in unknown (and useless) foreign signings has been Rovers policy over the last two years so don't play that card. They only real successful buy in that period? A Scotsman.
BigUts Posted July 20, 2013 Posted July 20, 2013 That would be 13th in the top flight, according to Statto. I know this is easy to corrupt stats but take away the Walker years as they were unbelivable and funded by a sugar daddy and the very early years of pro football then re evaluate. The average arm chair supporter or skysports viewer will have Rovers and other Lancashire clubs as second tier teams at best. If you remove the last 20 years and extrapolate Liverpool's success, they're the league winners about 35 times. You can't re-write history for the sake of an argument.
SoldierMo Posted July 20, 2013 Posted July 20, 2013 Talkin about re-writing history...if fergie was sacked..... Anyways its pointless argument but fact is Rovers were champions so were the best team in england and in some peoples views rovers are seen as a bigger club than most
unleaded Posted July 20, 2013 Posted July 20, 2013 you'll find that Jason Lowe has been an ever present the last 2 years in fact Lowe has played a lot more then the other non British players.... When he first got in the team BRFC were a PL Team yet 2 years along you StIil want to stick with him Why?....you related to him?....
Moderation Lead K-Hod Posted July 20, 2013 Moderation Lead Posted July 20, 2013 Lowe is not good, when someone laid a free kick off to him to have a strike at, I almost walked out.
Guest Norbert Posted July 20, 2013 Posted July 20, 2013 No harm in giving the Arab guy a trial for a few weeks. If he's rubbish then we say thank you and let him leave. That is assuming this isn't another Bruno/Anderson type of deal being hoisted onto the club from certain quarters, and the deal is already done.
Stuart Posted July 20, 2013 Posted July 20, 2013 you'll find that Jason Lowe has been an ever present the last 2 years in fact Lowe has played a lot more then the other non British players.... When he first got in the team BRFC were a PL Team yet 2 years along you StIil want to stick with him Why?....you related to him?.... So your problem is Lowe? Why didn't you say so? That's a totally different debate.From your posts it sounded like if Boywer didn't buy Abdulrahman he should quit because he's not giving foreigner players a chance... or something. Oh... Amar is the player ... Need a brave coach to give these guys a equal shot..
neophox Posted July 20, 2013 Posted July 20, 2013 Lowe is a good right back. Not in midfeld. But as a right back he would maybe playing in a Premier League side.
SoldierMo Posted July 20, 2013 Posted July 20, 2013 Lowe is a squd player cant blame the last two seasons on him some of the players hes playd under and managers have been absolute woeful which is not wat a young player needs when breakin theough, i think this year will tell us wether lowe is good enuff or not
blueboy3333 Posted July 20, 2013 Posted July 20, 2013 http://www.lancashiretelegraph.co.uk/sport/football/10562079._/ No deal agreed for UAE international Amer Abdulrahman says Bowyer, but might take him om trial.
Lancs Rover Posted July 20, 2013 Posted July 20, 2013 It's been discussed before Mark. (Probably several times). Look at our post-WW2 record - and take away the Walker era and subsequent (unsustainable) legacy period and redo your sums. You're right, Stuart. But only to a degree. But our history - recent and otherwise - stands comparison with almost any. We are trying to convince players to come here after all, not convince fans of other clubs to support us
Stuart Posted July 20, 2013 Posted July 20, 2013 Players invariably come to clubs who pay them the most. After that it's convincing them that we are a team on the up. Unlikely any players will come to Rovers because we won the league 20 years ago (although possible) less because we have a great FA cup record 100 years ago. The bigger draw after money and ambition is a marquee manager but that's usually tied to ambition anyway. For a club of our finances, we would have done well to have thrown what little we had at a 'name' manager if attracting better players was the aim.
The Rover of Finland Posted July 20, 2013 Posted July 20, 2013 Very sensible to offer the lad trial as Bowyer propably never seen him in action. Kean would have compared the lad to Xabi Alonso already.
chaddyrovers Posted July 20, 2013 Posted July 20, 2013 http://www.lancashiretelegraph.co.uk/sport/football/10562079._/ No deal agreed for UAE international Amer Abdulrahman says Bowyer, but might take him om trial. looks like he not coming to Rovers. what about a loan bid for Villa midfielder Barry Bannan? He is very good player and would defo add quality to our Midfielder. Would fans been happy if we can get him. he is available for transfer/loan from Villa
Stuart Posted July 20, 2013 Posted July 20, 2013 looks like he not coming to Rovers. what about a loan bid for Villa midfielder Barry Bannan. He is very good player and would defo add quality to our Midfielder Would be great but sadly out of our league I think, Chaddy. Takes all their set pieces too iirc.
Wendal Posted July 20, 2013 Posted July 20, 2013 Asked if Abdulrahman will arrive on trial, he added: "I dont know, hes another name thats on the list." Definitely sounds like someone other than GB is pushing for this transfer...
West Yorks Rover Posted July 20, 2013 Posted July 20, 2013 Asked if Abdulrahman will arrive on trial, he added: "I dont know, hes another name thats on the list." Definitely sounds like someone other than GB is pushing for this transfer... Perhaps Formica's medical will be ok after all - if we take him on loan. something is not quite right or some deal has been done.
martonrover Posted July 20, 2013 Posted July 20, 2013 Asked if Abdulrahman will arrive on trial, he added: "I dont know, hes another name thats on the list." Definitely sounds like someone other than GB is pushing for this transfer... Given that we wrote to them I would say Agnew about a year ago.
West Yorks Rover Posted July 20, 2013 Posted July 20, 2013 A very good write up about Mr Abdulrahman in the National by Ali Khaled got it on Newsnow ( sorry can't do link) its not the one shown, its has a link on the same page though about his maturity and intelligence, he either has something or Ali Khaled is doing a very good selling job. worth a read.
