Crickey surely he's worth a lot more than that?

    I think he is worth more but no more than half a mill to a mil more max if he scores bucket loads this season then maybe but he has still only scored really in div 3

    On our shopping list a couple of months ago. How quickly things change.

    Except that he was never on the shopping list of those that were doing the shopping. Fans, often, get carried away with expectations, but I don't think there was ever any chance of us signing him.

    so even if we were interested there was no chance he would of came here there would be interest from top championship clubs at the very least and most likely lower half prem teams too. such a negative comment to start with too

    I saw an interview with Steve Kean this week, who must be the worst negotiator on the planet. He was asked about the Rhodes bid and basically said that a bid was in but 'we're not budging on the offer' then said 'well we have got a bit of room for manoeuvre'.
    You can imagine Kean's call to the Huddersfield chairman:
    SK: £2m that's all we're going to offer....ok, £15m but I won't pay a penny more.

    Would be impressed if we were after Rhodes, I will be amazed if he doesn't end up in the Premiership by the end of he season if he scores goals again.

    It was Gary Rhodes we were talking to. Was in negotiations to take over the Valley pies.

    He would have come if he thought we would be challenging for promotion to the PL which was the plan for this season before the shenanigans of this close season. Discussions were had. No chance now though, unless TJ finds significant funding from somewhere.

    If he moves this summer, Fulham would be my guess.

    I could see that, wouldn't rule out Newcastle either though. I Newcastle mate of mine seems to think Cisse may well be going to Juventus

    I feel a bit sorry for Steve Kean but a Rovers fan at work made me laugh about the Rhodes 'transfer':
    "Why buy a Ferrari and then give it to Frank Spencer to drive..."

    Amazed that Rhodes agreed to go to Blackburn. There must be some decent Prem clubs that want him.

    Where were there bids then? Bit of a home boy I hear so still local and here's a scoop. He's a Charlton Lifer. Really.

    Surprised there weren't any, at least that became public. Maybe the price scared off those that could have done with him.
