Before anyone judges Maceo think it is fair to say the lad hasn't had a fair crack at letting us see what he can do. Seeing him last summer playing in the under 21 tournament it is clear the boy has talent just a shame Hughes never gave him much of a chance

Maybe, but it's up to him to make an impact in training, catch the managers eye. He clearly hasn't done otherwise Mark would have played him.

Interesting we've been linked with the lads from Espanyol, undoubted quality, but given the price range how can we afford them? Probably just paper talk as i can't see us forking out 8M on anyone, unless Mark has a more substantial kitty than what we are aware of.

Would have loved us to sign the Dortmund right back on a free, but when Liverpool came in it pretty much ruled us out.

Sale of Bentley - £15M

Maceo didn't seize the chances he did get. With the quality of strikers ahead of him in the squad, it was always going to be difficult, but the horrific memories of that Coventry game haven't helped his cause.

with man utd winning the campions league does that mean that it opens another uefa cup spot. please let me know thanks.

When we first signed him i was pretty exited about it (i thought he might be a bit like Babel) Although I havent seen any of him this season i prob agree with Daniel and Michaels views, yes he didnt seize his chances but again every striker needs a decent run before we see the best of them.

The things im looking forward to this summer are -

Release date of the new shirts

Reading about some new signings

Closure on the Bentley situation

lastly watching a couple of friendlys .

Please LET print me some stories about this as 3 stories about Tugays contract extension in 5 days isnt realy doing it for me.

Here's a gift of info for you all tho (well anyone whose intersted anyway) Blackburn are launching 3 kits next season, the first choice away shirt will be Navy Blue/navy shorts, for fixtures such as fulham Sunderland spurs etc. The 3rd choice kit will be yellow with black shorts.

Maceo couldn't hit a barn door in training.

Another little gem unearthed by the fat taff. He was a hero on here when he signed. 12 months later he can't hit a barn door.
And you wonder why everyone laughs at you lot.

Agreed on the topics.

And if its true with the "full" navy blue shirt I think it would be very nice - depending on design and sponsor logo integration (and the Bet24 logo stands as a warning!!)

I would certainly get me one of those "full" navy blue shirts.

And I would definatly NOT get me one of the yellow ones though :-) All kinds of bugs would be crawling all over me!

How did the Andy Cole negotiations go little dingle?

LOL.

Still, there's bound to be some free transfer 35 year old Scottish journeyman to take his place!

And you wonder why no-one's heard of you lot!

i dont think anyone can really have an opinion about him after one performance. Yes it was coventry but there were more than just righters that performed well below their standards that afternoon.

For the money we paid for him i would like to have seen hughes give him a season loan spell at a Chapionship side. Any player needs a run of games to guage his true worth.

I think we have been lucky up front this season with Rocky being virtually ever present and then having the backup of roberts, benni and derbyshire....righte
r's has just nnever been given a decent chance.

Anyways...in hughes we trust....

You're right - what a waste of a whopping £350,000!

When oh when is Hughes going to spend some money wisely for once eh?

What a dingle clown.

what a sh**thead

I'm sure that, had Rigters shown any kind of promise in training/reserves, Hughes would have kept him around and maybe loaned him to a Championship side, as happened with Derbyshire a two or three years back.

I'm sure Sparky's judgment hasn't been made solely on his first-team performances in games like Coventry - if he did, there'd have been a few others on their way after that kind of performance!

It's a shame it didn't work out for him at Rovers, but at the end of the day, it didn't cost us a fortune and if we can get our money back, then there's nothing really lost.

If he had saved that 350k he would have something to spend now, cos he'll get nowt off fat Jacks lot this season.They're Southampton fans.
Keep punching above your weight small boys.
He only played against Coventry, expensive day for you that. By the way how did you get on against the championship whipping boys?
Still with the rest of Lancashire, laughing at you lot.

Championship whipping boys? We didnt play Burnley soft lad.

We can write off £350,000 due to our lofty position in the best league in the world.

You lot, on the other hand, would struggle to write off £350,000 lira.

When does your state of the art Bowling alley going to be finished? Rumour has it you get a season ticket for life if you have 1 game on the lanes.....sounds like an offer of a lifetime that.

Why oh why wont Andy Cole and Unsworth sign a contract? It be well good at Turf Bowl next season!

I KNOW WHAT YOU MEAN WE SHOULD HAVE SAVED THE £350,000 WE SPENT ON HIM AND BOUGHT SUPERSTAR KYLE LAFFERTY (OVER RATED HEALY MAKES HIM LOOK GOOD FOR NORTHERN IRELAND ). MIND YOU HOW MUCH DID YOU WASTE ON AKINBIYI THE BUTT OF JOKES ON SOCCER AM

Love the way that dingleboy here can't even admit that he's a claret!

Ha ha, what a pus$y!

I don't hate Burnley - I pity the fools.
Suckas!
