Gamst Pedersen

[tchocky]

McEveley, Ferguson, Emerton, Gamst Pedersen, Stead, Gallagher and Neill are all young enough to build the team around in the future.

Its not all about age you know. They must have some quality as well....

On Sky sports they were saying that MGP had been signed for an undisclosed fee.

£2.5million in 500 easy monthly payments!

Norwegian newspaper Dagbladet is reporting that MG Pedersen signed sometime before 22:30 yesterday. They are further reporting the transfer fee to be a total of 31 mill NOK, with 18 payed at the transfer and the remaining to be payed after 30, 60 and 90 official matches.

They do not report anything about the size of his wage, but they say a large part of it is based on goals, passes, matches etc..

Its all in the paper edition so i cant give you a link.

Unconfirmed at this stage, just a reliable whisper is that MGB has agreed a four-year contract. The fee could rise to £2.5m. subject to a number of clauses. eg appearances, league position

[trs]

Never heard of him!!

[Hughesy]

According to most morning papers he also signed yesterday. Anything official out there?

[kingalan]

If he has signed (touch wood) then it's finally a signing to get reasonably excited about - young, creative, promising, pacey...

This is the direction that we need to be going in and not signing over-the-hill players who can barely cut it at the top.

I'm really looking forward to seeing this young lad play.

Don't like the sound of that! Based on the number of "passes"? What if he's having a blinder and passing all over the pitch to all and sundry? He'll cost us a fortune. "and in that first half Perdersen made an astonishing 127 passes to his team mates." "Yes that's great news for the lad Andy, but it's cost Blackburn £12,700. If he keeps this up over the course of the season he'll cost them another million!"

Cut to the second half and the Rovers Directors are going mad "Take him on Morst Gamst Pedersen!! Don't pass!! Take him on!! Skin him!!" in scenes reminiscent of that time back in 1927 when there was last an atmosphere on that side of the ground.

Actually, I've changed my mind - great idea. I look forward to seeing him tomorrow, hopefully he'll leave that cretin Neville in bits.

[Flopsy]

Hate to repeat myself 1)HAS HE SIGNED? IF SO 2) CAN HE PLAY AGAINST THE SCUM 3) DO I ACTUALLY CARE ANYMORE??

Thankyou

[daheri]

Yes flopsy he has. Reporters from norway has be talking to MGP himself. And he comfirmed he had signed. It will probably be official once they get a picture of him with a rovers shirt.

Where's Todd???

[krislu]

He has signed there is no doubt about that! and as for his wages he is going to earn 25m NOK over 4 years (£2.05m), meaning he will be on about £10 000 a week (not including performance based bonuses)

[Ste B]

I've got a horrible feeling about this Emerton Gamst Pedersen, hopefully he'll do better than his Aussie cousin.

BTW an anagram of his name is - DR STAMEN PEGS EMERTON or AND EMERTON GETS SPERM

[MCMC1875]

Can he take penalties? We're in for a deluge sooner or later.......

[Alan75]

Ste B being optimistic again

the sign of a true Rovers supporter.

Passes? I hope Lucas Neill is on a passes type wage as he owes us now!

[RoyRover]

I was reading on planetfootball.com how Souness was 'keen to discover' if MGP was able to perform at this level and is quoted as saying that it "remains to be seen whether he can make the step up to this level." Now I'm not slagging Souness, but would it not be better if he actually knew that he was good enough to play in this league, before he spent what little money we had on him. But then again, you have to take a chance with players from lesser leagues.
