Another team doing itself no good is Man City. Another £30m spent on another foreign striker. Haven't we been here before? Do they expect anyone to give them any credit if they do ever find a manager that will make them win something? It'll only have cost them the GDP of the civilised world to do it.

The sooner they bring the financial regulations into football the better.

BRFC won't want to see one-twos between Ronaldinho and Keith Andrews. They'll want to be seeing one-twos between Ronaldinho and the 22 year old signing from Spain who wouldn't have even considered Blackburn Rovers if Ronaldinho wasn't in the side.



Of course it is. But WTF is wrong with that? Practically every neutral and oppo fan would be interested how Ronaldinho got on in Blackburn. Playing against Blackburn would hold far more interest if Ronaldinho was in the line up rather than it was the functional outfit it is now.



You have no idea whether the bid from Blackburn is even genuine. They could simply be using an attempted signing of Ronaldinho as a way to generate publicity and a way to persuade decent, younger prospects that Blackburn is a good club to have a future with.



STFU



Three of the four stands are absolutely fine.

WTF is a meaningful side? Why does it take a certain amount of supporters to be meaningful? Were Clough's Notts Forest a meaningful side?



Do you know what Blackburn Rovers training facilities are like?

What good would spending £30m on new training facilities and a new ground do if they get relegated this season?

£30m on Ronaldinho could transform BRFC and the club's future. £30m on a new ground and training centre could be money pi55ed down the drain.

personally looking forward to seeing Becks line up alongside Van Der Vaart etc - should be some more good entertainment at WHL soon...

If I were a Spurs fan, I wouldn't want Beckham anywhere near my side. Nowhere near good enough for where Spurs want to be, a disturbingly odd signing.

Not for the impact of arguably the most well known and popular footballer's ever to play the game? Not to have one of the passes of ball ever to be able to come off the bench and change a game? or not for the commercial/marketing aspect that it could have on Spurs?

There's nothing odd or disturbing about it, I can't see how Spurs could lose out in this?

Ronaldinho still has a couple of more years left playing European football with a good team.

But if all he really wants is a nice long contract with a big wage, all sorts of luxury treatment and to be the big fish in a small pond then he could easily instruct his agent to find him a club in the USA or middle east, where he could name his price.

If he actually does want to sample the Premiership then, with no disrespect, surely there would be 'bigger' clubs than Blackburn making a move?


As for Beckham to Spurs... they need something to help them push on and try and truly establish as a top 4 side - the hysteria his signing would bring (not to mention a possible debut against Man Utd) would be crazy and would surely be good for morale & keeping the younger heads calm.

Beckham returns to Old Trafford.

Will be the headline.

Maybe, maybe not. Maybe Blackburn are willing to offer enough of a premium to Ronaldinho to compensate him for going to a smaller club?



Let me guess, a United fan?

All the United fans might get an erection at seeing their fantasy boyfriend back in the PL, but it would probably create far more of a distraction to what Spurs want.

I bet United fans are far happier about Beckham returning to the PL than Spurs fans are.

After his lay-off Beckham will probably be getting match fit after 7 or 8 games, which is all his loan spell would be given he has to be back in the US in March.

Spurs don't need to make a gimmicky signing like this and, complimenting their pacy attacking team, they have two players in Van der Vaart and Modric far better than Beckham at controlling the flow of the game if needs be. It would be a strange one IMO.
