Post by Blackrod » Thu Aug 10, 2017 10:28 pm

Has an interesting name. At first I thought it was fake news.

16 goals and 15 assists from the wing. That is good even if it is Belgian league.

Like nearly every other signing in the Premier League, I've never heard of him but he has a foreign name so must be good.

Jealousy gets you nowhere. You could easily make signings like this, but either your recruitment team isn't good enough, or dyche ain't keen of foreign footballers.

I remember a lot of people this time last year getting a strop on when Boro signed Viktor Fischer, saying exactly the same thing 'exactly the same player we should be trying to sign'.
Turns out he was turd and they got relegated.

They are certainly bigger than yours by two divisions, a good few million quid and many thousands of fans.

saxo - I see you didn't argue about the division divide or your amazing debt that is heading you towards insolvency?

The 30,000 crowd we would struggle with as you know as we don't have the room but as you are struggling past 10k fans at your place perhaps we could ground swap?

They've got bigger debts than Rovers, so in that respect they're a bigger club.

Don't be too hard, Sidney1st. They're giving it a good go. :)

Probably the most ridiculous comment yet from your catalogue of '1,001 Ridiculous Comments'. :roll:

If we do venture into the overseas market to sign a forward better hope that he's not from Holland.

We can't risk bringing in another bad egg. :lol: :lol: :lol:

I find myself betting quite alot, I watch alot of football in the process. You name it, I have probably watched it, even the Belarusian Women's division.

Given the shortcomings of our recruitment team, and KRBFC's apparently unparalleled knowledge of the European players' market, isn't it about time the club employed someone to watch television full-time?
