Jordan Rhodes

[Collymore!]

Anybody been reading rumours of us being linked again with him?

Don't know if I was dreaming but I recall reading somewhere that Blackburn are pretty much at the point of financial explosion due to players like Best, Robinson etc all being on around 40k p/w and their parachute payments are gone... and we have been in touch all summer about the situation (Can't find where I was reading this though).

obviously this rumour would be another Prattinstin as we would never follow through with what it would take to get a player like this but it's a new one at least!

 

[Gingers Across the Midfield]

No better than Derbyshire

 

[WillE]

More chance of signing Gary "smelly" Rhodes

 

[Kelvin's Local]

It's complete bullshit because their parachute payments are still very much there. They get them for another two years after this.

 

[Ravi]

More chance of signing Jordan and Zandra Rhodes.

 

[Fallon]

If we're going to choose a Blackburn player to buy I'd put my house on it being Leon frigging Best. We seem to have been after the bloke for about 8 years.

No better than Derbyshire

:facepalm:

I know they 'get' them for another two years, what I mean is that they have already spent them in advance just to keep going the last two seasons...

 

[Nffc]

Yeah we have should hear more in the coming days

 

[JordanForest]

Would be good if true. Hopefully it's all kept quiet so no other clubs hear of his availability. Hope Fawaz just shocks us with this news, completely out of the blue.

Won't happen though

 

[Rzar]

Is this even anywhere, or did some random account just mention his name and it evolved from there?

 

[porks]

he is allegedly on 35k a week yes and i am sure they would be looking to recoup a large amount of the large fee for him

 

[Forest2002]

Please don't put rumours like this up, it's just embarrassing.

 

[JordanForest]

Jumbo did say the next signing would be the best. This would do that.

 

[TheDudeII]

He's only saying that to help sell season tickets

 

[The Red Mill]

He looks well off the pace today against the shaggers.

 

[Ricochet]

He looks well off the pace today against the shaggers.

Goal hanger.

 

[bhastings316]

Goal hanger.

That's pretty much what we need. All our strikers seem to end up in wide areas or dropping into midfield. Get yourselves in the box!!

it is decided. welcome at last Leon :congored:

 

[888balluk]

More chance of signing rhode island

 

[Jah]

If there is even a sniff of a chance of this happening, then a Norwich or a Stoke will come in at the 11th hour and beat any championship club to the signature.

Pure folly.

 

[matt1982]

Should be playing in the prem

 

[tomasj]

Of all unsubstantiated and ridiculous rumours, this one really is up there in the top six.

 

[puds1970]

Of all unsubstantiated and ridiculous rumours, this one really is up there in the top six.

It's a definite champions league contender.
