[Archived] Transfers Part 2

[gumboots]

And we believe this why?

[tomphil]

No sense in any of that at all it's the usual Nixon garbage or they've set new depth in plot losing even by their standards.

In fact it's all probably just time wasting to leave his move as long as poss so they have an excuse not to spend it. They'll be taking whatever is on the table as the clock ticks down to the window if it isn't already sorted.

[chaddyrovers]

I would let Marshall go for 1.3 million and sign 3 or 4 players we need to stay up

because plenty of clowns on here waited for his 11 o,clockers like he was a god,did you all up like kippers.

It won't be anywhere near that he has less than six months to go and he is free of charge. Hey here is what I woke up thinking maybe the have to sell a player to afford to sack Colye...

Do you honestly believe Coil has the ability to keep us up even with three or four new players?

I don't.

Lansbury just been sold for 3 mil with 6 months left

Same with the Barnsley midfield playmaker who name I cant remember. Who is set for Villa.

Fair enough, however I don't believe it will be anything near 1.3 million. Sounds like you think it will. With lambert already knowing Marshall you would have thought the deal would be done between the two of them offline so to speak, you sit there till June then I'll sign you.

And even if it were we won"t be seeing any of it (unlike Balaji's trousers).

I would settle for that.

Why say this when there is no chance of this happening?

Venkys gave never reinvested any money in the team. Why would they start now?

This is a silly opinion because it won't happen. I might as well say I think we should sign Messi and Ronaldo - it's just as likely to happen.

HAVE THE LAST FEW YEARS TAUGHT YOU ANYTHING?!! IF WE SOLD MARSHALL FOR 1.3 MILLION COYLE WOULD SEE F ALL OF IT. WAKE UP CHADDY

[Reedy You're A Star]

From Nixon

BLACKBURN will block Ben Marshall leaving until they get £2million.

The contract rebels old boss, Paul Lambert, has bid £1.3m to take him to Wolves.

But Rovers owners Venkys want more.

Just shifting the blame from his mate to Venkys. No one is gonna offer £2m for Marshall, even if he had 6 years left, never mind 6 months. Hurihane and Lansbury are much better players than Marshall, so there really isn't any comparison.

On the plus there's only Feeney in the way of Mahoney getting a regular start now. If he can't get in ahead of him, then he's not as good as we all hope.

Play Mahoney on the left wing and Feeney on the right wing

On Marshall, Wolves will bid on transfer deadline day then we have zero time to sign players. This is very likely to happen in my opinion.

I would taken the 1.3 mil for Marshall tbh. His attitude stinks and has done for 18 months.

Will we sign anybody? Only time will tell but I doubt they will be championship experience which we need tbh. We need players like that but we never done this when we were in PL so doubt it now. Typical of Venkys

But under a more tactical manager we would be mid table with this squad. Its not awful but just more typical mid table championship squad.

Gallacher has played wing. Steele will start there before Mahoney will get his chance.

[Reedy You're A Star]

Sad but true. Why even have an academy if we're not going to use the better products? Might as well loan him out to Cambridge too and have done with it.

Keep Marshall till summer (we ain't going to reinvest the money) and then we need 1 less player with championship experience.

Given where we are in the table, it would be a risk to bring in any permanent deals - personally I'd be looking at loans.

[Athlete]

That doesn't necessarily mean his wife was involved, from his interview it sounds like Paul Senior has Paul Senior's interests at heart...

Not BRFC interest lol

I would let Marshall go for 1.3 million and sign 3 or 4 players we need to stay up

No one will pay that when in a few months they can get him for nothing

[chaddyrovers]

Wolves have bid 1.3 mil for Marshall, various sources have reported this

Plus Wolves are lacking a right back aswell.

expect a bid on the last day of the transfer window imo

In recent years quite a few academy players have come through. Currently Nyambe, Lowe and Lenihan are all academy.

To be honest, although everyone loves a good conspiracy theory, the likelihood is that Wharton and Mahoney are not playing is because they are considered not good enough.

Maybe Coyles wrong about that, but not many of our academy players are leaving rovers and flourishing elsewhere. Indeed most would prefer if we didn't have to play the likes of Lowe and Nyambe as they can both be liabilities.

Was Hanley the last "decent" player our academy produced?

If Lowe is the standard, then standards are low! Nyambe and Lenihan are doing ok, I agree, which is good to see.

He's surely better than Feeney or any bottom of the barrel gash we're likely to bring in in the dying embers of deadline day. He's not had a proper chance in the first team, we're about to have a vacant spot in his position, why not give him a go?

Wharton was playing fairly regularly earlier in the season and was getting good reviews. Again, we've had a spot open in his position, but not given him more of a chance, then loaned him out. Why? Was he good enough earlier in the season and hit a really bad run of form for the U23s? Someone who watches the youth more than me will know more and if that's the case, then that's uncharacteristically sensible for Venky's Rovers. But, it hasn't been mentioned when talk of it being more down to contractual reasons has come up, so we're left to suspect the worst as usual.

He was probably the last one worth his wage. But at a decent championship club, he is still not a regular.

[neophox]

Hanley back in a loan deal....nah
