JRC when fit Sigurdsson when on his game -
Go well, Dacky. Some fantastic performances for this club and a player that was universally loved and has never said a bad word about us. Totally appalled by some of the comments i've seen from 'Rovers fans' - mostly on X - seemingly mocking him for having two major injuries. No wonder players don't want to stay here for their full career.

Couldn't agree more - thanks for everything Sammie, when we needed someone to step up you rose to the challenge and played with both arte et labour, i'll always give you a round of applause for that. -

Sammie gone according to SSN, medical in the morning. I see three scenarios playing out: 1) Venkys win their court case on Tuesday and - subject to still being interested in doing so - begin to fund the club again. That will mean we will have the Szmodics money and potentially the Raya money to spend this window. 2) Venkys have their case pushed back again and the Szmodics money is banked to cover running costs until January 3) Venkys lose the court case, the Szmodics money is used to cover loses whilst a buyer is fou -

Two working days until the court case is my assumption as to why we’ve gone quiet. -

I cannot for the life of me comprehend how anyone thinks Markanday is above L2 level. He's atrocious, the worst of our wingers by a country mile. -

For what its worth I often work at Stockport - we hire your ground for film shoots - and the improvements in both facilities and staff over the last 5 years is fantastic. You're certainly a club on the up. -

You’ve come to exactly the right place - we’ve a whole host of players not up to Championship level. What position are you most in need of? -

I’d put you above Vale in the pecking order. -

Rovers decide his value to Rovers, not his market value. -

Thats our valuation, not the markets valuation, as I said. No, that’s your valuation. If the only bid you get for your car that’s up for sale is £50, which you don’t think is enough, then your personal valuation is higher than it’s market value. -

Let me try this another way: If Ipswich are the only club seemingly in world football interested and their max bid is £8,500,00 … that means his value is £8,500,000. We can all debate his value to Rovers, or in comparison to other players fees or what we think they should be paying. But the market dictates his value. This will go south very quickly if we don’t agree terms soon and at that point I don’t blame Szmodics one bit. The difference with Gestede? He threw his toys out and refused to play after about 48 hours because he wanted his payday. Sammie is still playing and scoring after about 4 weeks. -

If he moves to Ipswich he’s going to be rich beyond his wildest dreams. At 29, he will never get this opportunity again. I’ll eat my hat if he doesn’t get the move, I don’t care what anyone says about his attitude if he hasn’t moved in 2 weeks he will force one. And rightfully so. -

Yeah, maybe. Maybe he’s thought: I could earn three times more money, play at the highest level in English football and as a father to a young daughter, be 20 minutes away from my family. Then one Saturday he woke up and thought: Actually, we’ve just beaten Derby 4-2. Despite there being no money, major uncertainty and no progress, I’ll stay here. -

Siggy now qualifies for a permit with 14/15 points - so the concept of us selling him to open an ESC spot simply doesn’t make sense. If we need to open an ESC spot we just need to prove Sigurdsson now qualifies and get him a permit. -
v Derby County (h) - 09/08/2024
J*B replied to Upside Down's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
Whether we have Batth, McFazean or Paulo Maldini playing centre back we need a new keeper. Pears - who’s signing I still question as the son of a mate of Mowbray - was shit when he arrived, shit last season and will continue to be shit this season. He’s shown glimpses of being capable but the inevitable fuck up is always just around the corner. Hell, I’d sell him if someone would pay us any sort of money and try to find two keepers. -

If Wharton would have stayed the club would be bankrupt by now -

I’m sure Weimann played left wing back the last two seasons. -

They’re not playing him or letting him train with the group because they can’t afford for him to get injured. Ipswich aren’t increasing their bid because they’re the only interested party and know we need to sell him. I believe they call that checkmate.
