If you mean Ryan Taylor, then you are very wrong, as he is playing nearly every game for them (maybe not 90 mins a game but he is getting a game every week.)

Whereas we got £1,000,000 for Alan Mahon because he signed for Blackburn Rovers. He never played for Sporting but if I remember rightly signed for Blackburn as quick as he could to get Rovers the money as the year mark was approaching fast.

i think we got more like £300,000 for mahon. i am not saying it's bad moving to another(bigger)club,cos' i think everyone would do the same this day n' age!

why do you dislike him then?

i don't dislike him what-so-ever. he was a player who helped get us to our 1st major cup final. i just think we need to move on from ex-players :!:

Greenacre at the mo, all time is Aldo!
but if its ex-players who get the job done and take us back up then the odd ex player won't hurt.

1st of all mate,i am right behind the idea of david kelly becoming our next manager(if need be)so i think you've got you're wires crossed on that one!

2nd-ly, mahon left to go to sporting lisbon,a club that meant rovers getting no transfer fee! he hardly ever played for them aswell,so he certainly never progressed there! GS saved him from his nightmare,and helped us get some money! he kicked on at blackburn and had a great 1st year,but when they got promoted to the prem he was frozen out,reminds me of a similar position he is at @ wigan :!: don't get me wrong,he is a quality player,but i feel little needs to be looking at the long term rather tha a short term fix :!:

3rd and lastly,if i was pro @ rovers or any other cub for that matter, i would "do a rooney" and i don't believe anybody who says that "they wouldn't" :!:


1. Sorry must have misread the point!

2. Was just saying that footballers and people in general make mistakes. If you are a footballer at TRFC and get offered the chance to play for them, you'd take it. He didn't know he was going to fail there.

3. I see.

I just think we should move back to ex-players if they become available and would improve us without discriminating against them at all because they happen to be ex-players.

Look at what Duncan Ferguson has done since he went back to Everton.

Look what Kelly did when he came back as assistant. We lost once in his time as assistant I think, not too many more.

Ferguson was worse second time round and Kelly was in a coaching role sp we cant get anything from that.
