Goodwillie signs for Blackburn Rovers

[Hibernia Na Eir]

Something like £2.2m (£2m upfront), thats the difference !

Rangers not even close

Not quite working out for Super Ally

Nice one Daveed

[R'Albin]

Always thought he had a beautiful voice- good luck to him!

[Hibernia Na Eir]

Now we just need Malmo to complete things next week

A full set !

[frazeHFC]

Hate him. Delighted he has left. Hope he fails miserably down there.

always been a thorn in Hibs' side and, IIRC, he became the youngest ever SPL scorer. With a goal at Easter Rd!


He would have hurt us had he singed for that lot. So good that DUFC took the sensible money from the bigger team.

[Sir David Gray]

I think it's best that he goes down south, rather than to Glasgow. He is a marked man up here as far as nights out are concerned although I don't really think he needs that much encouragement to attract trouble.

I think he'll do pretty well in the Premiership, it'll be interesting to see how he handles the extra attention that being a Premiership footballer brings though.

I thought it was the 2-2 game at Tannadice? I'm probably wrong..

In all fairness I hope he does well, it has only been recently that the reputation of SPL players being good enough for the EPL is beginning to sway back in the right direction.
Stevie Fletcher having the balls to snub the OF in favour of the premiership I think was the first after Barry Ferguson greetin for Bothwell.
The English clubs will always be able to outbid Rantic, thus they cannot raid the quality players of their opponents just to weaken them.

Price I've seen is £2.8m which is weird considering utd stated they wanted £2m. He is a very good player. I'm glad he's gone down south and hope he does well so he can develop as a Scotland player. If he doesn't do well, he'll be at the old firm within 2 years

Nah, it came in a 3-1 win for us at Easter Road in March '06. He came on with 4 minutes left and got one back for them at the end.

He was 16 years and 341 days old at the time.

I can vaguely remember the goal too. It was up the FF end if I remember correctly.

[lucky]

He is a good player but a horrible little ****my bag off it. Glad he has went south but fear it will end of tears

£2m upfront, and clauses up to another £0.8m

Is there not only 365 days in a year?

I'm a bit lost?

Yes.

I don't see what you're getting at though.

[DH1875]

More than happy he hasn't ended up at der hun. Their penny pushing attitude does my head in. How much did they sell Wilson for? and would love to see their valuation of dross like Fleck.

[DH1875]

Has this been confirmed? Sky Sports reporting that Blackburn have made an offer but that Rangers are still in the hunt.

Class act on the foorball park, such a pity he's the human epitomy of dug **** off the field. An absolute fanny.

Yup. Riordan scored early abd we had a bumper crowd as the match ticket acted as a cup semi final voucher for the part timers ;)

Only just though!

Is that the same as penny pinching?

Joey Barton will be glad if it joins Blackburn. For once, he will able to point the finger and tut-tut.

It was actually Rod Petrie and/or "Mixup" that had the balls to snub the OF. Fletcher was desperate to go to Celtc in the January window before he was sold. Articles about his "Hibs hell" etc appeared in various papers.

Rangers not even close

According to the accounts Blackburn brought in £58m season before last of which matchday income only generated £6m.
Gate money makes up slightly over 10% of their income, thats the real and overwhelming difference.

It has been shown that Rangers (and Celtic) are unable to compete financially with English sides now down to mid level Championship. Changed days indeed but does not augur well for the rest of us either.

Took a bit of a huff to boot after publicly urging Hibs to agree a deal with Celtic.

[MacBean]

apparently this isnt quite a done deal, well according ESPN as they have just interviewed Ally McCoist saying he is still chasing him and hopeful it will go thru

[Sodje_18]

Well done to him for showing ambition, more than some of our lot ever did.
hope he does well, could be one for the national side in years to come. Just need to hope he goes down there with a decent attitude and stays out of trouble (Can't see that though)
