Blackburn and Everton are set to launch bids for Steven Taylor following Newcastle United‘s decision to place the defender on the transfer list after failing to reach a new contract with the North East club.
It is understood that the club would not meet the wage demands of the player who was looking for £60,000 a week. The summer prompted much speculation of the defender leaving Tyneside after a …
Ivelin Popov – a midfielder from Bulgarian club Litex Lovech – is currently on trial at Blackburn Rovers.
After impressing during his trial, Blackburn decided to secure the services of the lad on a permanent basis. Oh so the Bulgarian club thought.
Yesterday the Bulgarian club released a statement on their official website stating that they and Blackburn had come to a deal that will allow Popov to move to Ewood Park.
However, Blackburn …
Ewood Park bound?
The potential new owner of Blackburn Rovers has said he wants David Beckham to play in the famous Blue and White half’s.
Rovers are still in talks with Indian Businessman Ahsan Ali Syed about a proposed £300m takeover, with an estimated £100m to be given to Allardyce to spend on players.
But Syed has set his sights high and wants Beckham at Ewood Park. “If my finances allow and his …
Former Rovers chairman Jack Walker in 1995
Back when the Premiership began, Blackburn Rovers were one of the best teams in England. They won the Premiership in 1994-95 and were runners up the year before. All this was thanks to Blackburn businessman Jack Walker – the founder of Walkersteel – who pumped millions into the football club during his time as chairman.
Blackburn have since fallen away from the Premier Leagues elite …
Kalinic presented with winner on a silver platter.
During pre-season, Everton appeared to be in the pink of health with six wins from seven. Today however, they looked simply daft in the pink, producing a performance almost as shocking as their chosen awayday hue for the season.
Although this game was a massive improvement on the 6-1 thrashing at home to Arsenal last season, Blackburn were full value for the three points by …
With John Johnston
Following a 10th place finish last time out, manager Sam Allardyce will be hoping that Rovers can repeat this feat once again or even go one further when their season gets underway this weekend.

Dwight Yorke does United
MIDDLESBROUGH 0-4 ARSENAL (2001)
Having been pipped to the title by Manchester United that May, this would be the season that saw The Gunners score in every game without fail, win the title with something to spare, and win the FA Cup by beating their up and coming rivals Chelsea. It could not have got off to a better start, a 4-0 demolition job in the backyard of Middlesbrough, …
Wanted: Kevin Prince-Boateng
Following Everton’s sixth win out of six in pre-season, hopes are high on Merseyside that this form can continue into the Premier League season which kicks off in nine days time. Unfortunately, while the futures of midfielders Mikel Arteta and Steven Pienaar still hang in the balance, it is very unlikely that any further transfer activity will take place without a bit of wheeling and dealing.
Despite this grim outlook, …
Tottenham’s Giovani Dos Santos has been linked with a move to Blackburn Rovers, but should he stay or should he go?
Indeed, Big Sam is reportedly interested in the tricky Mexican. If true, Harry Redknapp will have to decide whether it’s time to stick or twist (or, you know, do something in between – i.e. another loan or gradually bring him into the side – but that’s not quite as catchy …
Escapini, LOL! Point taken! Got a little carried away (removing bug from ze a**)! Craig, mate, no offense!
