‘£25million, with adds on to £30million, don’t want to meet that? Fuck off then’, should have been the negotiation. But no… ‘ please take us off our hands Palace, the VAT bill’s due.’

The overall sucess of the Siggy signing is 'mixed' so far, but I did like the creativity shown by the recruitment team. Managing to pick off a talented 24-year-old with decent pedigree for no transfer fee (probably still on a decent wage, but still) by taking advantage of 'geopolitical events'... that's the kind of thing clubs in our financial position need to explore. As you say, if he can step up his physicality/show some better endurance, he's pretty much the only goalscoring hope if/when Sammie leaves, but certainly only an if! In the last 6 seasons, he's averaged only ~1,900min/season on the pitch (that's including a decent chunk of Iceland minutes) due to a combination of injuries, club turmoil, and often being a sub. The most he's managed in a continuous year was 2,271min back in 2019-20 (he managed ~2,600min across his loan in Sweden, but that's split across two seasons - I didn't bother to calculate that exactly!) Can he put in the 3,000+min we'd need as our lead attacker? Doubtful...

I'm not saying he isn't worth that much but as a championship club no way on earth we get 36 million for him. He hadn't even had an England under 21 cap whilst here I'm not defending the club, I wouldn't have sold him in January but there is no evidence whatsoever that someone would have paid us double what we got ,we could have looked for similar money that Scott got like Matty blue suggested which was £25 million

Remember rule number one of BRFCS.

That's the thing as well. We only needed to sign about three decent players and we'd have been up there in the mix. Instead the owners and their lackeys decimated the squad and made his position untenable whilst forcing him to stay. Nobody will ever succeed with venkys around. Even if you look like you might they will do everything they can to undermine you.

Bollocks. We could and should have got at least twice that much. He was sold to the first bidder as quickly as possible. Funnily enough that transfer wasn't bungled by the club secretary.

I'm absolutely dog shit and I probably have more of a striker instinct than Gallagher. He's not as bad as a lot of people make him out to be but he's not got the instinct to b a number 9. He's never where he should be. If he was more of a bully and actually used his massive stature then he'd actually be alright but he's just not enough of a nasty bastard.

He's already seen what a fucking joke this club is. Not a chance in hell he's coming back here.

"We have nothing left from our transfer bonanza because we had to pay out Sylvester and the egg. Just get behind the lads FFS!" It's coming, mark my words it's coming.

We are apparently getting The fee for Adam in 3 "chunks" and we've already spent one of them according to Nixon. On what I ask? The water bill? https://insidefutbol.com/2024/05/11/blackburn-rovers-getting-adam-wharton-fee-in-chunks-one-already-used/644582/

Link him with every team under the sun prior to moving, then commence the process months after he has actually moved. Chancer. Ill guess Dortmund next week.

No point arguing with Mashed Potatoes. If there's a point to something you know he'll miss it. Might as well make yourself a big plate of mash and sit down and have a discussion with that. You'll get more sense from it.

Ave number of home fans this season is just 41 under 13k, ave away support at Ewood 2624 - sure there was a debate about that and some assumed it was higher.... oh wait that was dingle telling me every team brings 3.5 to 7k..... Ave Rovers away following 1326 which is bigger than a few other strugglers with much bigger home gates. Its been a real competitive season in terms of crowd numbers home and away this year but ours haven't been so bad by our standards given the shite on the pitch and the complete nonsense off it. From one of the smallest towns in the div we actually remain one of the better supported pound for pound, could and should be bigger if only there was 1 ounce of brains and ambition in that Ewood boardroom.

Ok. No probs. Whilst it was a bit incendiary , I agree with the general point.

Terry Jacks - Seasons In The Sun We had joy, we had fun, we had Burnley on the run……..

I think we all know this is what actually happened. Three times in a year.

Yes.

Of course not. It's cruel really. Should they just throw all their trophies away? Get rid of the 1971 memorial?

Doubt he'll restrict them this season the clown will be rolling out the red carpet, same for Bolton if they get up. That's probably 9 points we'll chuck away at Ewood already although i think Eustace will have more appreciation and understanding of derbies than JDT.

Really.

Really ?

I think you've every reason to look forward to playing us next season!

We've had a bad season, thank fuck the Ding Dongs have had a worse one.

Would dearly love to put these gobshytes under foot next Season.
