[Archived] Jordan Rhodes

[Zulu]

Bolton according to this morning papers are selling Mills and Mears to raise funds for new signings. so how the hell can they afford Rhodes and meet the FFP.

I think we are selling Mills and Mears because they're crap. Just saying like!

[Tyrone Shoelaces]

I think the point he makes is right if the views of most people that have seen us in pre season are right. Rhodes will be feeding of scraps again, what a frisking waste of a quality striker.

It seems after we gave up the chase for Luke Moore there was no altnative.

We started today with two defensive midfielders, that does not bode well.

Yeah we played with two defensive mids yesterday and we still looked shakey at the back. Maybe we need three defensive midfielders ! Just joking.

Stop being such a drama queen...and it's Luke Murphy we missed out on.

According to makey11 we passed on Bannan because of his lifestyle, and we may be after Leadbitter. It's obvious we need a better centre midfield, and it's even more obvious that Bowyer knows this. It's about getting the right one.

JAL talks like a ten bob book and is best ignored.

.....................and not quoted.

Maybe this is in reflection of our ten bob club, just hope they can raise the standard (doubt very much) then ill follow suit.

I will be very surprised if Bolton Wanderers sign Rhodes. It's not going to happen.

I will be even more surprised if Rhodes stays at Blackburn Rovers though. I reckon some mid-table Premier League club will come sniffing around and he'll be off. Sad fact of life in modern football.

Corrcet. Dog eat dog Zulu. We did it to enough other clubs when the shoe was on the other foot.

[rhodie]

Even with the mercenary attitude of todays footballers and some of the idiotic decisions that have been made at the club recently, I honestly don`t think Rhodes will be allowed to go, the reason being he is worth a £100 million + to us, if we can keep him scoring the goals that will get us promoted, he isn`t worth that much to any premier club and no other championship club would be more attractive to the player.

That would be a good signing.

anyone else think rhodes is suddenly looking distinctly unhappy and disinterested? has something gone on? has he been denied a move he wants or on the other hand, could be having a move forced on him he might not want perhaps? his form during pre season and in the first game says somethings not right to me..

was bradley orr trying to tell us something laughing at that `honesty` sign..?

[Guest Norbert]

Don't know about thagt, but then again, I've not seen any pre-season games. I hope he remains fairly quiet until September 2nd in some ways.

He hardly looked unhappy. Like Rochina is so unhappy he went and got himself injured

[saxo1man30]

just starting to get a horrible feeling were gonna cash in on BOTH dann and rhodes. 11 players in with not many(not enough) outgoings, somethings gotta give..

He's a striker he is unhappy when he isn't scoring - he's happy when he scores

Although I couldn't work out why he was moaning at Rochina for having a shot from 10 yards when a pass was never on

Rhodes was as ineffective as he's ever been on Sunday but still could have had a goal and two penalties

[old darwen blue]

Someone's on the wind up again

[SoldierMo]

Rhodes didn't look unhappy...he had one cleared of the line and two pen shouts and had another when keeper cone out to the ball....what should he have done to look "happy"??

Wore a 'I'm happy' party hat and merrily danced around at 15 minute intervals, as a minimum.

Had an MD not to many years ago who wanted to put a clause in a contract for working in China that said I had to smile, I still have a copy, told the MD to @#/? right off, also wanted me to relinquish 20 years of service after I had negotiated a severance package.

Why has Rhodes been cut from 16/1 to evens to join Wigan. Where has that come from

[Kamy100]

Rumour doing the rounds that Wigan will use money from McCarthy sale to put in a bid for Rhodes. So some people have put on bets I assume which has led to the odds being cut.

My Dad heard that rumour at the game today.

[Tom]

Wee Coyley is a gem after all is probably most players dream to play for him

[Kamy100]

More worryingly, a reliable person told me that West Brom's chief scout was at the game today, they must be in the market for a striker after what has happened with Anelka this week.

I'm laying them on Betfair, bring it on!

Only kidding btw but the explanation is spot on.

[T.J.Newton]

I can west brom being more interested in Best than Rhodes, Best has shown he can do well in the prem and his value and salary are a lot lower than Rhodes's, I cant imagine Best will be happy sitting on the bench for to long if we carry on with the formation and line up from todays game(which I hope we do)

[EWOODACE1]

If we do unfortunately lose Rhodes what worries me is that we are left with best till dj is fit
