[Archived] Jordan Rhodes

[AJW]

i'll be amazed if Jordan Rhodes is still a Blackburn player come 1st September , but (and this may sound hypocritical) i think he's better than Hull ... IF he goes there i can only see him fighting relegation next year

[Batman.]

There is only one man dumb enough to spend more than half of his budget on a man who is unproven at that level, and it's Steven Bruce.

[Parsonblue]

His uncle is called Agnew?

The very same Steve Agnew who was our record signing once upon a time when he joined us from Barnsley for £750,000. Funny how things turn out.

[SIMON GARNERS 194]

Moving to Hull something to 'brag' about....'Kinnel l!!!!

[Proudtobeblue&white]

So what, club is in so much turmoil, Jordan will be paid to leave, hollow shell of a club I once loved. We will start in the Championship, god knows where we will end.

[Rover_Shaun]

A fast track to the Prem or another year in the Big Top?

As soon as he privately says he wants to move there is nowt the club can do other than get the best deal they can. We are no longer in a position to play games.

You're spot on there mate. Good championship manager absolutely @#/? EPL manager.

[Plops]

Lets face it guys

We're now a selling club

All our best players are going.

Rhodes gone.

Murphy, Etuhu, Gomes to follow...?

The last three names going would be a bad thing? We need a massive overhaul. I say play the kids, saw what the main squad could do last year.

Those last three would bring cheers of relief if they were to depart.

In fact using those names as a wind-up rather gives the game away that you are a WUM.

Murphy, Etuhu and Gomes??!!! Say it aint so plops.

[Plops]

Dont think we can go up just by playing kids

Gotta have a mix of youth and experience.

Look at Cardiff with Bellamy leading the line.

EDIT: ok ok shouldve said experienced players not best players.

[broadsword]

WUM-alert

[Andy]

Can't see it happening, would do more damage to his young career than spending another prolific year here.

Non Rovers fan.

You've been rumbled pal. And as for Bellamy, that bloke would walk into 90% of the PL sides. The qualities he brought to Cardiff were mainly based around the fact he was better than anyone else in the division. The fact he has experience was secondary.

[Plops]

Lol we'll see whos right and whos wrong on Day 1 of next season.

[thenodrog]

Who cares? Whether he stays or goes life goes on and I've got to say I've seen lots of players miles better than Jordan Rhodes leave the club.

[patrickvalery]

Why? Because you predict a side who are universally accepted as being financially, morally and operationally up kean street selling their best player? Do me a favour mate. There aint many here who expect him to stick around. But your pub talk evidence and Murphy, Etuhu and Gomes reference shows you up as a fake. If it happens I'll offer an apology if you do the same.

[Plops]

I would gladly apologise

But i wont need to.

As rovers fans we just gotta accept

Were a championship team, playing league one football and selling our best player will make it well nigh impossible to get back into the premiership.

Thats my opinion.

[Guest Norbert]

Less than £10million.

You heard it here first.

You intimated that the deal was done, as in he'll be going ASAP. Now you are giving this 'deal' until September 1st, which is a fair way away. Covering your back are we Poopy Plops? Or just not good at making up stories and following through?

Rhodes may go to another club this window, but you came here waving your arms about saying he's gone, on his bike, out the door etc. and not he is attracting interest from club x,y or z.

[glen9mullan]

Try breaking clubs transfer record for a sale and then a discussion could happen ,

However the NOT FOR SALE sign firmly up , he also has zero clauses , So unlike Phil Jones rovers not only don't want to sell , but can't be forced to either .

The £8 million fee Rovers paid brought about mixed opinions when he first signed , however that fee is now the saving grace . Had rovers bagged Rhodes for around half that then £15 million would be tempting , however its gonna take massive money now for the club to bat an eyelid

[Stuart]

Which would rule out Hull.

Plops ..is the sound a turd makes when it drops in t'bog .

[Plops]

Seriously guys

Quit tryna flame me

Hes leaving.

Accept it

Move on.

Direct your anger towards the real keans

Venkys.
