Rovers warned off Rhodes (From Lancashire Telegraph)

Presumably your headline should read 'Rovers warned OFF Rhodes'. Deary me.

oh well.. "thats all I have to say about that" as Gump would say.

:(

So after a week of headlines where not going to sign him,

Suprise suprise!

Never mind lets get three more freebys in.

It was never on ! All talk & bulls""t trying to sell more season tickets . They really do insult the fans intelligence ! Agnew & the drunken jocks out !

After reading Keans appraisal of Rhodes and all the clubs running after his signature, we may just be lucky enough to get another Goodwillie.
Can't wait to see that partnership kick off.
The rest of the championship must be really worried

Willing to bet hard cash that it was Kean's opening his big gob to the media and **** off the Huddersfield Chairman that resulted in the deal not being done.

Rovers transfer policy is like a box a choc-o-lets - yer never know what yer gonna get.

It's hard not to be cynical about the proven liars running BRFC at the moment. I wonder if Andy Cryer gets fed a load of nonsense by the club? Did we really offer £5m+ for Rhodes? If so, did BRFC really think H'field would sell at that price? I bet the Venkers are delighted it got turned down. Expect a loan signing very soon, or a freebie.

"Rovers warned of Rhodes"

Why? is he carrying some nasty vaginal disease or does he turn lean and green when he gets angry?

"Mr Kean, don't make me angry.. you won't like it when I get angry"

:O

Horse shiiiite anyway, what a farce. So we bid 2 mil plus add ons to total 4 mil then today we report 5 mil plus add ons and a sell on %. Sorry LET but the stories don't hold water. Fulham bid 2 mil, I can assure everyone that we did not bid 5 mil plus all the trimmings as reported.
Also, why no mention of Sunderland's bid to take Guidetti? If he's our next target then he could be as good as gone already.

This fantasy is panning out like most of us expected it to,also the spin that Citys Guidetti is next on Keans radar does not wash either all spin and bull from the masters of bull the Venkys.I am waiting with baited breath to hear what doctor spin ie Shabby Singh will have to say on the matter if anything at all probably more smoke and mirrors from the masters!!!

Thanks for your clear assumptions re the bidding for Rhodes - source?

Re Guidetti, if you can believe reports, he is not going to Sunderland because of some sort of illness. On a reported season long loan, a short term illness, if this is the case, should not be a problem, but could a permanent transfer to another club suddenly clear up the mystery illness??

Maybe/maybe not

You lot have more chance of signing Forest himself!

GOD SAVE THE KEAN

More kite flying,and whistling in the dark,there's no way this lot of cheap skates would spend this kind of money,let's have another look at the freebie list Colin and while your up get the drinks in we are doing alright,we are still fooling some of the fans.

Andy,why do you print what you believe to be true.This approach isn't doing you any favours.Watch this for a headline-
ROVERS OFFER £1.5 MILLION FOR RHODES BUT TELL EVERYONE THEY HAVE OFFERED £5 MILLION TO MAKE IT LOOK GOOD.
-and hey presto,you're back in everyone's good books.
You might as well print what they want to hear,cos they're going to make it up anyway.

Same old sh*t...different season

I thought the judge warned Kean off them 12 months ago?

8 out of 10 Rovers fans do know what we're going to get with Keans judgement and Venky's transfer policy though!

That's right, and it's one box of chocs - like season tickets we won't be buying because 8 out of 10 players recruited = S***!

Sunderland are bidding for Danns it says on sky sport

Looks like the pessemistic 98% of rovers fans were right again, viva la realistic intelligent non dingles.

i dnt know why u all are complaining u all know huddersfield isnt going to sell him at least not this season be it 1.5 mill 2mill 4mill or 5mill

So, the end to what has been a very clumsy and amateurish courtship, sprinkled with lies about Rhodes wanting to join. Huddersfield have valued Rhodes at 6 million for at least six months. The offer of two million was always going to be rejected. All we've done is alerted the football world to how the Chuckle Brothers do business at Blackburn. I can't imagine many clubs looking to do business wiht Blackburn in the near future.

Again conman Kean comes out of this (and the club, may I add...) saga with egg on face....not that we expected it to end any other way !!!
Is this going to result in another freebie mid-field player from Portugal !
....and there is still the likelihood of a defender or two leaving before the season begins.
We may hit the ground running, yet I have this sickly feeling it will lack any sign of a well structured team with a fitness level needed at this level.
(I am thinking v Wolves 12 months ago...)

Cannot imagine conman Kean himself having much idea of the starting X1 and again are very late in the transfer market looking (just like last season..) for last minute bargains & freebie,s.

The Championship league is very physical as we know and well require the ability to combat that threat and the experience to deal with this style of play.
Has the friendlies and build up and signings to date leading up to this season given anyone confidence ?!?

The only way this transfer will go through now is if Rhodes himself forces the issue.Whilst he may say he's 'happy' at Huddersfield, I'm sure he will be reflecting on how much more 'happier' he will be when his wage increases to £25k-£30k a week! I'm sure his agent will be getting itchy feet too.If he fails to match his previous form this season with the Terriers then his value will plummit and his earning potential.Player power will rule - just depends if he wants to come!!??

Watch this we will end up with Emile on his arse again Heskey the quote will be we promised you experience and with Emile he's strong holds the ball up well Ex England international and knows were the net is . Judge me at the end of the transfer window . Judge me at Christmas .We will win promotion . We will have to go up via Playoffs . We will make the playoffs .We are on course for a top ten finish in this difficult division . We will not be relegated . We build for next season in third tier of English football . We will win promotion if we can keep the squad together.here we go again .

Anyone in there right mind would no that he wouldn't come to a club with a manager what doesn't no his arse from his elbow,
Same crap tactics same crap season, get the scum bag out shebby and we might have half a chance of play offs

Does not matter how old a Rovers fan you are - have you ever felt less enthusiasm for the start of a football season? I can't recall ever having such liitle interest other than hoping we have a bad start and Kean gets sacked and then this club can start to rebuild again.
.
Because ONE FACT that is not in doubt is this Mr Shabby - THIS CLUB WILL NOT MOVE FORWARD AGAIN UNTIL KEAN IS GONE.
.
I don't even care if we have a good start in a league we should normally have walked anyway - because that will only put back even further the change needed.
.
34th....

Same bulls**t, same lies from the Venky's publicity machine along with the circus they call a management team and the LET prints it. You should be reporting the truth and not the propaganda cr*p they want to print. Do some proper journalistic digging and then print the truth. Rhodes has probably never mentioned that he wanted to come to Ewood, why would he leave a side that has a relatively stable and good management team to join our very own BRFC Circus complete with clowns. If Keans words earlier this week were correct then we now have our side for next season, which leaves us with lots of inexperience, kids and freebies to get us out of the championship. Not a bl**dy chance there is only one way and that is down with this shower of s**t in charge.

John Guidetti's C.V seems much more comprehensive than Rhodes but Sunderland were interested and seemed to be put up off because he was carrying a virus!
I think it will be interesting to see how Rhodes manages against better defenders but worry how many he will bang in against us.

On the one hand, someone's saying 5m plus add-ons plus sell-on fee plus promotion bonus plus pay rise if promoted ... and on the other, someone's saying 2m rejected. Who, for f*ck's sake, are we to believe ? What a bunch of comedians.

A person close to Rhodes said the reason he wont go to Rovers is, he wont work with drunken jock and another jock who is a liar and swindler.

His agent is mr Rhodes the Sheffield Wednesday goal keeping coach, aka his dad, I.m sure he isn.t in it for the money like most agents, he wants a happy son

This Rhodes transfer saga smacks to me of similarities of the Papis Cisse transfer to Rovers last summer.

Everyone knew Cisse had a buy out clause at Friborg of 15m euro's yet Rovers offer 5m then walk away when its been refused but make everything public and get loads of positive press - eg "look at us, in for great players, arn't we great owners".

Same has happened with Rhodes - he's valued by Huddersfield at £6m and Rovers offer £2m ?? - then they make an "improved" offer but really most of this "improvement" is just really in add-ons and preformance based - ie, "Jam tomorrow" rather than "cash today" - and at the same time, Rovers splash these offers all over the press (to the annoyance of Huddersfield) to impress the guilible (yes there are still some Rovers fans who, despite all that has happened over the last 18 months can still be taken in by the smallest of "positive stories" - usually claiming this is a sign that Venkys have "learnt from their mistakes" etc etc.

Until Venkys come clean over whats happened over the last 18 months, kick out Kean, his agent and Agnew and co-operate with the authorities then Rovers will never be back on the right track, both on or off the pitch.

They have a perfect chance to do so this morning with SS meeting but don't hold your breath, I expect us "great unwashed" to be fed a 2 hour diatribe of spin, lies and hot air.

He has already been told that he will be offered that kind of money if he wants to stay. So what other incentive is there for him to leave a prosperous club on the up and go to the Rovers train wreck?

It's true, after Andy's 'Rovers Up Bid For Huddersfield Striker Jordan Rhodes' piece, I was actually starting to swallow all that cr*p. Who's the w*nker ? Sh*t, must be me.

Kean and his' big mouth' just another load of lies that the idiot and his mates continue to feed us - he just doesn't see that this sort of PR stunt just alienates him even further away from the fans - what a 'plank'!!!
So now got the City man under his 'radar' fat chance of this as well - just wish someone would get Kean under their radar and blow him, Hendry and the rest of his mates out of Ewood Park!!!!
Just hope the 'global adviser' gets his fingers burnt today as well with some searching questions!!!!!!!!
OUT WITH KEAN HENDRY AGNEW SINGH VENKYS

Rhodes ban again for Kean

Theres an article in the Huddersfield Daily Examiner that states Rovers bid was 2M plus addons if we were promoted.

GOSH !!!!!!!! Mr. Kean has been telling us porkies

Kean & Regime OUT

It just shows Kean for the 'man' that he really is. Rhodes is OK, but he's no RVP ... so here we are, getting all excited thinking this prolific goalscorer is going to come running to us because we are the place to be ... but it ain't true. Nobody in his right mind is going to want to come here and work for Rod Hull (or is it Emu). Anyway, anyone with an ounce of talent surely thinks twice about coming to join this circus. The only people we can sign are no-marks who wouldn't be employed elsewhere.

So Ronnie Dingle, now you are resorting to making stuff up
Sad really, bit obsessive really
Seek help, it is not too late!

Next thing they'll be saying is that RVP has been sounded out with regards to joining the Ewood Park Circus. Run by clowns managed by a clown. It has become a Pathetic, Useless, Shambolic club run by Headless chickens and a drunk to boot. You will have noticed we have had no words of encouragement or otherwise from our glorious Venky Clan, just the usual silence.

Making stuff up ? what are you saying that Kean is not a drunk ? then why is he not allowed to drive ,the reason he is not allowed to drive and Hendry chaffeurs him around is THAT Kean is a convicted drunk driver ,I think that is concrete proof he is a DRUNK ,and HENDRY If he was NOT a SWINDLER and LIAR then why does he not get www.colinhedrylies.c
om OFF the internet , the reason for that is ,its all TRUE and you cannot silence the TRUTH , SO NOTHING IS MADE UP ALL TRUE. SO FACT IS KEAN IS A DRUNK AND HENDRY SWINDLED OLD PEOPLE OUT OF THEIR PENSION SAVINGS.

Well, surprise, surprise, we haven't spent money on a player, we have signed someone on loan for the season. Who would have thought that!

"Let's all go to Ewood Park, asset stripping, what a lark!"

SHYSTERS GET OUT OF OUR CLUB

I think he was referring to Rhodes not wanting to come solely because of Kean and Hendry's "dark side".

By the way, getting pulled for drinking over the limit does not automatically qualify someone as an alcholic, as you calling him "a drunk" implies.

He clearly likes the odd jar or three, who doesn't?, so irresponsible or just plain stupid maybe more appropriate.

There is plenty of ammunition to get rid of this incompetant buffoon without having to bring in Alcos Anon.

Rhodes did not want to play for con man kean - its as simple as that.

Spot on?It depends if you're gullible enough to believe one journo's story over another.

I started reading through the comments on this article, and to point I understand most of the comments but at the end of the day; all conspiracies aside.... Huddersfield said NO, that is that, we move on. Forget your Roswell theories, a pyramid on Mars and Kean being some mastermind....they said NO, that it the end of it. Please let it go, all this **** helps no one, just wait until he has ruined the first 'set ' of games and Shebby will do what he was brought in to do...!

Kean telling porkies? Surely not!

Rhodes is overpriced in my opinion, hes only bagged loads of goals in league one, unproven in championship.. would likely blow £5-6 million on him and he cant score for toffee in championship... see what he can do for huddersfield this season then pay it
