EgyptianPete Posted July 15, 2015 Posted July 15, 2015 Well....an ITK poster on a Wednesday forum posted two days back that they could expect a MASSIVE signing this week... He supposedly got the info from the "horse's mouth" and their owners are ready to spend 10 million pounds on a striker.... He might as well have been spouting nonsense but then again I wouldn't be surprised if they went in for rhodes.. Again a wind up no way is JR going to another championship club, one by the way that has pretty crap training facilities, it would be like going from a Rolls Royce training ground to a Chinese back street shop. Still you get a reaction so fair do's.

davulsukur Posted July 15, 2015 Posted July 15, 2015 I think the "is it time to protest against Venkys" thread would get some hammer if Venkys are willing to pick up the phone to agree the sale of Rhodes and not pick up when it's about signing players!
Butty Posted July 15, 2015 Posted July 15, 2015 Hull episode 12 months ago. Seismic change in Rovers' circumstances. He will go for far less than £12million. Gestede clearly wants out and will go but I've convinced myself Rhodes is going to stay! If both of them two go we will get bloody relegated
EgyptianPete Posted July 15, 2015 Posted July 15, 2015 Hull episode 12 months ago. Seismic change in Rovers' circumstances. He will go for far less than £12million. C'mon, even then the board/shelfy knew FFP was on the way, so if they idn't pocket then i see no reason to pocket a lot less as you suggest now, oh and again JR scored 20 in a season despite Bowyers attempts at putting him on the subs bench, meaning his value is still very high despite what you and some other posters think.
Bucksrover Posted July 15, 2015 Posted July 15, 2015 Hull episode 12 months ago. Seismic change in Rovers' circumstances. He will go for far less than £12million. If people are still on this board saying Rhodes will be sold this transfer window for a lot less than we would want then not much has changed. Think last year we were going to be lucky to get 6 million for him. Then we went on to reject 12. Truth is nobody on here knows. The good thing about rovers these days is if you keep peddling pesimistic guesses they will eventually come true.
neophox Posted July 15, 2015 Posted July 15, 2015 Calm down. Rhodes wont go. Take a beer or two and relax.
Dunnfc Posted July 15, 2015 Posted July 15, 2015 Whatever happens during this murky summer let's stop any infighting. Gary "Gaz" Bowyer is one of us too. Remember that no matter what.
roversoutsider Posted July 15, 2015 Posted July 15, 2015 Again a wind up no way is JR going to another championship club, one by the way that has pretty crap training facilities, it would be like going from a Rolls Royce training ground to a Chinese back street shop. Still you get a reaction so fair do's. It might not make sense on the face of it but, what choice has a player got if the club accepts a bid. You talk as if JR has a choice to choose whether he wants to go there , which he clearly doesn't. Local sheffield journo Alan Biggs has said their owner is looking at spending 10mill quid on a striker.... I don't know how that would work out for them with ffp and I admit it might just be a rumor but I've resigned myself into thinking the owners are going to green light every half decent offer that comes in.
neophox Posted July 15, 2015 Posted July 15, 2015 Everything is just speculation. Relax until speculstion becomes reality. Nice to hear Gazza laugh abouth Brightons enquiry on Marshall. As I said Marshall is a player he want to build around.
Mercer Posted July 15, 2015 Posted July 15, 2015 C'mon, even then the board/shelfy knew FFP was on the way, so if they idn't pocket then i see no reason to pocket a lot less as you suggest now, oh and again JR scored 20 in a season despite Bowyers attempts at putting him on the subs bench, meaning his value is still very high despite what you and some other posters think. Think in V's eyes, promotion now a pipe dream - all about recovering as much cash as quickly as possible.
Gav Posted July 15, 2015 Posted July 15, 2015 Think in V's eyes, promotion now a pipe dream - all about recovering as much cash as quickly as possible.You're mischief making as usual old bean, but it gets a reaction, more the fool them I say.BUT I do believe Rhodes will be sold, I believe he wants out, but he's not going to Sheff Weds, it's Premiership or nowhere in my opinion.
ABBEY Posted July 15, 2015 Posted July 15, 2015 Whatever happens during this murky summer let's stop any infighting. Gary "Gaz" Bowyer is one of us too. Remember that no matter what. Er he's forest no matter what

Waggy76 Posted July 15, 2015 Posted July 15, 2015 I think you well be right Gav ! I also suspect, most if not all of the better players want out !

BUT I do believe Rhodes will be sold, I believe he wants out, but he's not going to Sheff Weds, it's Premiership or nowhere in my opinion. I have been told he is happy to stay

Do you mean like Jack did when he took over, to make a statement, well that could be true, but as i see it JR has some say, lets just suppose they did bid 10m we say 12m they say yes, BUT JR says sorry i don't want to go, he has a good contract with us so he can not really be forced out, imagine the fans, well i would go ape @#/? myself, team GB would be in tatters imagine the abuse he would get.
Neal Posted July 15, 2015 Posted July 15, 2015 I have been told he is happy to stay Believe this. Recon he knows he's on a good number here at Rovers. On a fair wedge, fans love him, scoring goals and I think knows that this is his level. He wouldn't want to go Wednesday, they wouldn't pay what he's on here and would be total sidestep. Only way would be if the club accept an offer and i don't think anyone will offer what we want.
patrickvalery Posted July 15, 2015 Posted July 15, 2015 Calm down. Rhodes wont go. Take a beer or two and relax. Appreciate the sentiment. But if you'd be kind enough to post the same on twitter then it would put a lot of minds at rest.
DavidMailsTightPerm Posted July 15, 2015 Posted July 15, 2015 When you look at a few of the Sheff Weds MB's - even they don't believe he would go to another Championship side. Of course this would be a canny way of flushing out any genuine Premiership interest,
Waggy76 Posted July 15, 2015 Posted July 15, 2015 Do you mean like Jack did when he took over, to make a statement, well that could be true, but as i see it JR has some say, lets just suppose they did bid 10m we say 12m they say yes, BUT JR says sorry i don't want to go, he has a good contract with us so he can not really be forced out, imagine the fans, well i would go ape @#/? myself, team GB would be in tatters imagine the abuse he would get.Money talks in all walks of life , if the money is right , he will go !Personally a lower end Prem is more likely ...
Gav Posted July 15, 2015 Posted July 15, 2015 No mischief making Gav, just my thoughts and gut feel. You've just posted Twitter cr@p from Wednesday fan sites! That's not your thoughts and gut feeling Merc?
blueboy3333 Posted July 15, 2015 Posted July 15, 2015 This was posted on a SWFC MB today:- 'I sub contract to an ex Blackburn players dry lining company and he's still very much involved with the club, he constantly says when I joke about Rhodes and Marshall with him that there's no chance of them especially Rhodes leaving for us......' Which ex-Rover would this be?
tomphil Posted July 15, 2015 Posted July 15, 2015 I have been told he is happy to stay Me to, he genuinely likes the club I believe and there are tens of thousands of reasons he's happy to plod on here for now. Said it before no championship club will come up with the wages he's on here and you'd think he'd have to be really interested in moving before he'd take such a cut.
bluebruce Posted July 15, 2015 Posted July 15, 2015 Twitter activity that Rhodes undergoing medical with Sheff Wed - fee £8m. I do not have enough asses to laugh off.
chaddyrovers Posted July 15, 2015 Posted July 15, 2015 Twitter activity that Rhodes undergoing medical with Sheff Wed - fee £8m. I was waiting for someone to post this on tbh. When I read on twitter I just laugh at it. 8 mil to Sheff Wed? What a load of rubbish. I dont see Rhodes leaving Rovers this summer. Cos the price will be far too much for teams to pay and take a risk on. We turned down Hull's bid and Boro's loan bid last season. Also turn bids down for Gestede(twice) in the last 6/7 months
