Jordan rhodes to blackburn

[sir albion]

Looks like its a done deal,rather surprised myself

Blackburn close on Rhodes | Blackburn Rovers News, Fixtures, Results, Transfers | Sky Sports

Reports elsewhere he has agreed personal terms aswell

 

[Barn Door Billy]

God, I am really starting to despise Blackburn...

 

[crodonilson]

7m seems an awful lot of money for a footbller who has barely played beyond League One football.

 

[Ernest]

Would have been better getting a decent manager in

 

[Stat Brother]

If they don't go straight back up, they'll be more like Pompey than pompey.

 

[BUTTERBALL]

Shows what parachute payments can do.

 

[Pavilionaire]

They cannot afford him. Massive gamble.

 

[Baaaald]

This guy is a quality player. Why the hell Blackburn with that idiot Kean?

 

[sir albion]

Shocking that a club that got 13k for there first home game and have super cheap ST's can do this.I thought parachute payments were supposed to be used to level the books etc mmmmm.

 

[MORTY]

Not worth £7m IMO

 

[Lethargic]

How many forwards do they have now, if things don't go for them could get interesting?

 

[greyseagull]

I'm so surprised no one waited until Jan to see if he could cut it at this level at least. Massive gamble.

He probably just likes fried chicken.

Other than financially, what a DREADFUL move for Rhodes. But I imagine at £8m, Huddersfield will be desperate for him to go. Incredible money for a player who's played just a couple of Championship level games.

 

[n1 gull]

Superb signing imo, I was always hoping that TB would break the bank for him

Wonder who they will look to spend there money on

 

[DIFFBROOK]

With only 3 promotion spots up for grabs I can see Blackburn or Cardiff not making it. Whoever doesn't or both, then with the debts they already have and their recent outlay, then I fear for their future.

Both have foreign owners who are only interested in the PL, certainly not the clubs.

I for one am glad that we are not spending silly money for a gamble that may lead to bust.

I was told on Saturday, that we had made a substantial offer for Rhodes, but it was turned down.

 

[sir albion]

It seems he will be on 38k a week at blackburn

And an unlimited supply of KFC family buckets?

 

[Albion Robster]

Why the feck didn't Blackburn spend some last Xmas in the transfer window?! They could have saved themselves a season in the Championship..!!
