NeonYellow 4 Posted December 30, 2010 According to the Daily Hate-Mail Blackburn want Russell Martin: http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/football/article-1342880/Blackburn-boss-Steve-Kean-eyeing-Norwich-defender-Russell-Martin.html?Personally I hope this is in line with the usual chip paper the mail prints. Have disliked Blackburn ever since greedy Chase sold us out to them.... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Yelloow Since 72 56 Posted December 30, 2010 Don''t know where they dug this one out from, but I can''t see it happening, given that we''ve only got 1 RB in the whole squad, unless you count Francomb who''s out on loan! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

yellow blood 0 Posted December 30, 2010 Crap report...the headline says he''s eyeing him then the story says Steve Kean is making Norwich defender Russell Martin his first signing as Blackburn manager. Kean is bringing in the £500,000-rated Martin as a long-term replacement for right-back Michel Salgado who is considering offers from the Middle East. which to me reads that he has more than eyed him. The Daily Fail writes crap again... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Davo 0 Posted December 31, 2010 I wasn''t going to post this but as it''s come up already......I was outside Yellows after the game on Sat after having a quick pint. I was having a cheeky smoke whilst waiting for someone to come out before the long drive home.Anyway I overheard two peopeel who worked for the club mention that Blackburn were after him for £750k.I really hope this doesn''t happen as I I though at the beginning of the season he could do a job for us at rb and he has surpassed my expectations.Davo Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ron obvious 1,711 Posted December 31, 2010 This is bonkers.The press is talking as if it''s a done deal - for £500k! FFS! He''s the only specialist RB we''ve got, & with all our defensive problems he''s the (nearly) last player we should be selling.I''d want at least £1m for him, & wouldn''t be too happy at that; who''s out there we could get as replacement? He''s an integral part of this team & I don''t want to see the wheels fall off now, thank you very much.Utter madness. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Nuff Said 5,973 Posted December 31, 2010 Plus he''s "deputy" captain isn''t he?Although perhaps we could use the cash to buy back the Doc? [:D] Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
