Rovers weighing up a move for former Benfica and Portugal striker Gomes
7:58am Wednesday 27th June 2012 in Football
By Andy Cryer, Blackburn Rovers reporter
BLACKBURN Rovers are weighing up a move for former Portugal and Benfica star Nuno Gomes as they continue efforts to increase their Championship fire power.
With last season’s top scorer Yakubu set to seal a £1million move to China, Rovers are keen to add at least two more strikers to their ranks, with Gomes understood to be pushing for a move to England.
Sources close to the 35-year-old have told the Lancashire Telegraph he is very keen on a switch to Ewood Park, with Rovers as yet undecided on whether to make the move.
The club are believed to have shown an initial interest though as boss Steve Kean considers his striking options after last season’s Premier League relegation.
Newcastle United striker Leon Best is understood to be Rovers’ immediate priority, with further talks expected imminently, after a fee in the region of £3million is understood to have been agreed between the clubs.
Ranger striker Steven Naismith is also believed to be on Kean’s radar, as he looks for an exit from the troubled Glasgow club, along with a long list of other potential options.
The addition of Gomes would just be regarded as a ‘bonus’ by the club if they opted to swoop, with his record in front of goal speaking for itself.
Gomes scored more than 100 goals during two spells at Benfica, between 1997 and 2000 and 2002 and 2011, having established his reputation at Boavista. He also enjoyed a stint at Italian outfit Fiorentina.
The striker, who turns 36 next month, has also enjoyed an illustrious international career, spanning 15 years. He helped Portugal to runners up in Euro 2004 and third place in the tournament four years later.
After being released by Benfica, he spent last season at fellow countrymen Sporting Braga but is now available on a free transfer.
Rovers have declined to comment on transfer speculation as they look to conduct their summer business behind closed doors.
Meanwhile, Yakubu is expected to complete his move to Chinese outfit Guangzhou R&F in the next few days, having held talks with them over the weekend.
The striker is expected to be followed out of the exit door by Junior Hoilett, although the out of contract winger has yet to commit himself to any club.
The Lancashire Telegraph also understands Italian giants Juventus have shown an interest in want away full back Martin Olsson.
Rovers are believed to have already turned down a £1.5million for the Swedish international this summer from an unnamed club.

I'm totally bored of it all now. Bored of getting that feeling of anger/disgust/nausea whenever I see a statement or interview from the club; bored of the tedious football his team plays; bored of fans arguing and bored of the total lack of humility and utter disdain with which the club treats the fans.
It isn't the same club anymore.

Bringing in new strikers is going to be Kean's hardest task by a mile but we need burgeoning talent that can develop not old has-beens, Murphy excluded.

When the players run out it's our team against theirs and the players will most definitely need the help of our committed fans to get them through the season ahead.
All the other nonsense will work itself out with the passage of time and, tragic though it is, there is very little that fans can do to affect the outcome of ownership and management issues.
It is not the same Club but it is still our Club and it is still football and it is a fan's lot to support their team through thick and thin. T'was ever thus.
It is crucial that the present set of deluded and incapable owners is not allowed to dim the passion that fans feel for their Club because that passion will be there when the shisters have moved on and we have our Club back.
Come on OUR Blues!

Like a previous blogger the club has lost its heart, I am normaly getting realy excited by transfer news etc but with all the lies told to us last year and the targets don't get me excited at all.
No I fear fans are now excepting this lot are staying here and Kean obviously can't be sacked so rather than carry on its easier to give up and just not support the club, hope I feel better tomorow!

Ordinarily I would totaly agree with you it's always been the team but this lot and Kean have knocked the stuffing out of me lately, going down there would be like excepting they have won and I just can't do it not even for the team, sorry like I said earlier I hope I feel better tomorow because the whole situation is horrible.

Football, as far as I'm concerned, was created by fans, is played by fans and should be accountable to the fans. The one thing 99.999% of Rovers fans want is Kean to go, and have for a long period of time. Now I'm not for one second saying that owners should bow down to the fans and grant their every wish, but when the management of a club go against the overwhelming majority of it's fanbase for so long, then what are you left with? Yes you cheer the 11 men in blue and white shirts, but you cannot ignore what happens off the pitch - to do so would make you an observer as opposed to a fan. (For that I am purely taking the extreme of turning up on a Sat and watching the game, then switching off for the rest of the week - I am in no way claiming anyone on here is not a fan).
My point is this - the club is not being run for the players or the fans. It is being run for Steve Kean. Everyone who questions him is sacked or forced out (think Paul Hunt, John Williams, Ryan Nelsen), he keeps his job despite an appalling record and every move possible is made to strengthen his position at the club.
I'm not one to jump at conspiracy theories, in fact in some strange way I feel that Kean has manipulated Venky's in to the position we're in now and abused their trust! Whilst I fully understand some people's desire to ignore the rubbish and persevere towards the light at the end of the tunnel, I wasn't brought up to accept fools, charlatens and liars. I will question the authority and stand up for it as I believe it's best for Rovers.
It's our club in name only. They don't care about the fans! Steve Kean will lie steal and cheat his way to ensure success - and success in this case is him getting his money. What happens on the pitch is just incidental to him. I cannot stand and smile whilst my club is treated like that and I make no apologies for that.
Like I say, football and Blackburn Rovers should be for and about the people in the stands, not the man in the managers office.

Kean was registered as a player with Celtic (not that he ever played for the 1st team) and no self-respecting player ever crosses the great divide in Scotland. However as this is Coco Kean we are talking about and Rangers have just been voted out of the SPL by their peers, then who knows?? And at least we would be rid of him!!!

When are Venkys going to make a statement or is it only Shebby now who can speak Last year we get rid of experienced Premier Lewague players - Nelsen in particular Salgado Roberts and this season we seem to be buying older players again on presumably decent wages - where is the logic?
I fear the wages for these old stagers will be better than decent; Premiership money, in the case of Danny Murphy, which is why he turned down QPR.
The policy doesn't make any sense, does it? To cut the wage bill last season, one way or another, we sold off the family silver, alienating the fans in the process. Now they bring in alternatve experience at higher costs.
It's all knee jerk, not strategy.

Once again, they're trying to con the fans into thinking they are investing money in the club. When in fact the money from any player sales will be used to pay the wages of any new players coming in. So no personal investment.

However, we have shabby sheik - who only recently suggested Stevie gets the boot - and shabby is now ensconced at Ewood.
This raises questions in my mind as to where the power actually lies. Obviously it is not entirely with baldy otherwise shabby would not be at Ewood.
From this it would seem that shabby is senior to stevie baby.
Stevie can get Paul Hunt fired but then shabby can come in over the top....
All very blooody queer to me.
The question we all want answered is how much clout has the bald one got ? And where does he get this clout from ?

It has become less and less about football, and more about as big and cheap as possible in order to draw a crowd.
They have made their money back and are about to offload when they feel ready, the future of football at Ewood is none of their concern, as long as they can get as many fickle fans to swoon at their ex world class players.
The club is in freefall, the owners still confused.

I agree with RobbyRover, I am also tired of feeling anger, disgust, rage and frustration at what has and is happening to our club. I am using the last weapon I have, not renewing.
Just stop and reflect.
If it wasn't true, would any of us have beleived 2 years ago that we would be in the Championship, managed by a lying incompetent no-mark who was responsible for our demise, ran by a b+llsh+tting Maylasian TV pundit with a soon to be squad of mid thirties has beens and kids?

It would be even more baffling why someone of Best's promise would want to come, but if he does, great. Not sure about Nuno and totally agree we need to start building from the back to stand any chance of holding our own in this league.
It seems strange though that the club is grinding into gear now though. If Kean was just a manager then he would have known, like the rest of us, that he should have been out after the Bolton game just before Christmas. After that, with a new manager and the squad we had, I think we could have easily stayed in the prem league. It just seems that the owners didn't want that, be it parachute payments or whatever.
I've found it hard to contain my anger over the season, from the way the club has been run to how we, as fans, have been condemned until we were relegated - after which the 'embargo' was lifted and the media ritly started to question the management.
I will be cheering our boys on from the away grounds this season, but I certainly won't be reading any of Kean's interviews or post-match comments in the LET because I simply haven't got time for his pathetic excuses and 'positive'-spun BS any more. To hell with Kean, I just hope we can win promotion again in my lifetime (I'm 38), but somehow I doubt it.

We are beyond a joke aren't we.
How far have we fallen with our expectations that people are actually applauding a 35 year old Danny murphy signing. God give me strength.
I agree with RobbyRover, I am also tired of feeling anger, disgust, rage and frustration at what has and is happening to our club. I am using the last weapon I have, not renewing.
Just stop and reflect.
If it wasn't true, would any of us have beleived 2 years ago that we would be in the Championship, managed by a lying incompetent no-mark who was responsible for our demise, ran by a b+llsh+tting Maylasian TV pundit with a soon to be squad of mid thirties has beens and kids?
We have to have a voice - our voice is non attendance - please everyone - its the only way things will change.

We need defenders! Don't know who is available but with the likes of Dann (hopefully), Olsson and maybe Givet going we have no back four!
Steve Kean - Genius. Fulham wouldn't have been promoted in 2001 without the great work he did with their under-12s side. Similarly, Rovers 1995 Championship success would have been impossible if it wasn't for Kean, and his cross for the Maradonna "hand-of-god" incident is the stuff of legend.

With the increase in games and midweek games thrown in as well the likes of Dunn, Murphy and Gomes all in the twilight of their careers they may be regular visitors.Up the blue and whites.

Football, as far as I'm concerned, was created by fans, is played by fans and should be accountable to the fans. The one thing 99.999% of Rovers fans want is Kean to go, and have for a long period of time. Now I'm not for one second saying that owners should bow down to the fans and grant their every wish, but when the management of a club go against the overwhelming majority of it's fanbase for so long, then what are you left with? Yes you cheer the 11 men in blue and white shirts, but you cannot ignore what happens off the pitch - to do so would make you an observer as opposed to a fan. (For that I am purely taking the extreme of turning up on a Sat and watching the game, then switching off for the rest of the week - I am in no way claiming anyone on here is not a fan). My point is this - the club is not being run for the players or the fans. It is being run for Steve Kean. Everyone who questions him is sacked or forced out (think Paul Hunt, John Williams, Ryan Nelsen), he keeps his job despite an appalling record and every move possible is made to strengthen his position at the club. I'm not one to jump at conspiracy theories, in fact in some strange way I feel that Kean has manipulated Venky's in to the position we're in now and abused their trust! Whilst I fully understand some people's desire to ignore the rubbish and persevere towards the light at the end of the tunnel, I wasn't brought up to accept fools, charlatens and liars. I will question the authority and stand up for it as I believe it's best for Rovers. It's our club in name only. They don't care about the fans! Steve Kean will lie steal and cheat his way to ensure success - and success in this case is him getting his money. What happens on the pitch is just incidental to him. I cannot stand and smile whilst my club is treated like that and I make no apologies for that. Like I say, football and Blackburn Rovers should be for and about the people in the stands, not the man in the managers office.RobbyRover wrote: I don't think I've ever been so nonplussed about the start to a Rovers season.

When the players run out it's our team against theirs and the players will most definitely need the help of our committed fans to get them through the season ahead. All the other nonsense will work itself out with the passage of time and, tragic though it is, there is very little that fans can do to affect the outcome of ownership and management issues. It is not the same Club but it is still our Club and it is still football and it is a fan's lot to support their team through thick and thin. T'was ever thus. It is crucial that the present set of deluded and incapable owners is not allowed to dim the passion that fans feel for their Club because that passion will be there when the shisters have moved on and we have our Club back. Come on OUR Blues!
Further, I am afraid to say that the shisters aren't going to 'move on'..The Future is Bleak while Venky's are around, as well as Kean their puppet..

Its a catch 22 for us every time they get a decent signing we will want to renew our season tickets but it would probably take the entire Barcelona midfiel to attract me to repurchase my season tickets whilst Mr Kean is still manager.

Ryanb74 wrote:Ryan34,
I think Murphy is a good signing for us, regardless of his age. Still perplexed as to why he came to Ewood but would welcome a signing that is actually capable of putting a penalty away!
It would be even more baffling why someone of Best's promise would want to come, but if he does, great. Not sure about Nuno and totally agree we need to start building from the back to stand any chance of holding our own in this league.
It seems strange though that the club is grinding into gear now though. If Kean was just a manager then he would have known, like the rest of us, that he should have been out after the Bolton game just before Christmas. After that, with a new manager and the squad we had, I think we could have easily stayed in the prem league. It just seems that the owners didn't want that, be it parachute payments or whatever.
I've found it hard to contain my anger over the season, from the way the club has been run to how we, as fans, have been condemned until we were relegated - after which the 'embargo' was lifted and the media ritly started to question the management.
I will be cheering our boys on from the away grounds this season, but I certainly won't be reading any of Kean's interviews or post-match comments in the LET because I simply haven't got time for his pathetic excuses and 'positive'-spun BS any more. To hell with Kean, I just hope we can win promotion again in my lifetime (I'm 38), but somehow I doubt it.
there are literally thousads of reasons Murphy has signed for Rovers ad each one has the queens head on it!

The only positive I could take from the signing of Murphy and, possibly, Gomes is that their arrivals will affect the squad's average age, therefore preventing Kean from using the, "we've got the youngest squad in the league" excuse.

It may be that, like Harry Rednap, Kean had minimal formal education (he wasn't there the day they did composition and good manners) and cannot put a letter together.

They (The Venky's) have a lot of ground to make-up even if Shebby works out....and the club know that almost all fans agree on the one change that is essential to the club moving forward. KO.N.
Do that now and there may be time and room for the owners to prove they can actually learn how to run a football club.
Lets give the guy who puts the cones out and the man of the match against shrewsbury another chance. Get a grip, who is this nomark, he has even less significance than kit man Kean.
Tell you what Michael knighton had more experience than these bozos. Shebby who? Steve Kean who? History dictates we are staggering from one disaster to another and all we've heard from the beginning is, give us a chance. Is 18 months and relegation not long enough to show how rubbish they are?

For the attention of Kean.....Better to remain silent and be thought a fool,than to speak and remove all doubt........ Abraham Lincoln.
On a lighter note......One of the biggest mystery's of all time is,why did Kamikaze pilots wear helmets.
Now back to Uncle Fester,...Light travels faster than sound,this is why Kean seems bright until you hear him speak.
Eh?

professionally, honestly and says he had

will need some time to apply them. Results
will be the main barometer of any success.

Other things can still be continued to be worked in the background on behalf of BRSIT and BRAG etc....
Don't really think that it is me that needs to get a grip here...

A very destructive form of protest that never really hits the correct mark due to the interpretation that follows. The frustration I feel is tangible in so much that the 'Odious One' can be in no doubt as to my feelings. That is a much more damning indictment than booing him.

Your a man of total integrity as far as BRFC are concerned. Should the 'Odious One' have a little of what we possess regards our club he would have walked, but he cares not one iota about BRFC, and cares only for his own delusion ability. I loathe the cretin and his debunker is there for all to see. He has walked into our home with a rudeness and arrogance that is breathtaking. I will never step foot back on Ewood whilst he his anywhere near it. He has single-handedly tarnished everything I love about BRFC, and it looks like their is no sign of it abating whilst this imposter remains. His record, in my opinion, will not improve. At best, he his a lower division manager, and I believe I will be proved right ? Rid him of any control at BRFC and I will return, gladly. Arte et laborePerfect, we should all boycot games till he goes, gather outside the stadium with loud radio commentry so we are supporting but not paying the clowns a penny. all other avenues have failed big style,, carry on the booing lads
I have never been to Accrington Stanley but this year will be a first, a friendly where the stewards will be normal, a small ground where I presume Kean and Shabby and Agnew will be there, where we can raise the roof from kick off, we can wave our banners and shout as loud as we want and HE/THEY cannot stop us, lets let Shabby know what the true feelings of the fans are.
Cost to us is minimum, we will help out a local club and we may even win (doubt it) and this sets a frame work for all away matches untill our message gets through.
Kean out
Boycott stays on
Shabby start listening to THE fans NOT keans ****
Money,
Stanley need every penny and should I or any of my freinds get the stop and search treatment we will take our money else ware, nit that I will be daft enough not to try and hide my banner!!
Also on such a small ground you must surely be able to get feet away from our glorious leader and the chance to bend his ear for ninety minutes will be one of the few pleasures I will get this year as I will NOT be attending home matches whilst he is still in charge.
Kean out
Shabby get him out NOW

1. Keep Kean quiet for a bit (shebby to spout sh1t instead)
2. Sign as many players or be linked before 10 July 2012.
3. Avoid players leaving (apart from Hoillet and Yak) before 10 July 2012.
4. From 11 July Sell as many big earners as possible.
5. From 11 July Steve can continue spouting.
This is on very good information,

ed at the news we're going to sign this brilliant forward. First Murphy, now Gomes, and here's hoping we get Leon Best as well. All we need to do is get Colin Hendry back into the fold and this club will start to motor up that table and get promoted.
