Geo V Posted 8 July 2007 Share Posted 8 July 2007 Some of these papers are utter garbage and they right some crazy stuff. Whilst Fowler to us isnt that far fetched the Elvis one is simply ridiculous. We should get at leats £2m for the Ghanian one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SamL Posted 8 July 2007 Share Posted 8 July 2007 ! maybe Mallorca thought we didn't have any money since we don't seem to be spending a lot so thought they would just give us 1m? Stupid I know. The People is obviously talking shit. Maybe, lcfc_fan_2007 is a journalist for them? haha Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blue Bob Posted 8 July 2007 Share Posted 8 July 2007 I am just suprised it took this long to link us with Fowler, we need a striker and he needs a club. As for the Hammond quote - well that is just funny!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
davieG Posted 8 July 2007 Share Posted 8 July 2007 Link Robbie Fowler's agent has said that eight clubs have shown an interest in the ex Liverpool and England striker. Clubs believed to be in the running include Leicester City, Cardiff and Scottish giants Celtic and Rangers. The Sunday People believe Leicester manager Martin Allen is ready to give Fowler the chance to extend his career by offering the 32-year-old a £22,000-a-week deal, meanwhile fellow Championship side Cardiff are preparing to offer the multi-millionaire a similar deal. George Scott who looks after Robbie's affairs told the Western Mail: We've got eight offers on the table and Robbie is considering the lot of them." "I can't see Rangers or Celtic being an option. They have each got too many strikers on their books and would need to off-load a couple first." "The one thing Robbie knows he wants is regular first-team football. Could it be at Cardiff? Why not? I think Cardiff, if they have the ambition, is the sort of place Robbie would thrive at. He could supply the goals to get them into the Premiership" "It is the sort of challenge he is looking for, to be honest. I see Dave Jones has said on TV he is interested if Robbie is available. Well he is available, so we need to talk." Confident Scott finished off by adding: "I know Peter Ridsdale as well. He has my number." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
breadandcheese Posted 8 July 2007 Share Posted 8 July 2007 Fowler is not worth £22,000 per week. Giving him that sort of whack over other squad members could cause problems. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ajax Treesdown Posted 8 July 2007 Share Posted 8 July 2007 Fowler would be a good capture for this level as would El Karkouri...........but it is paper talk. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flynny Posted 8 July 2007 Share Posted 8 July 2007 22k? fook off. I'd like to get him, but if we can't get him in on less than 10k a week then forget it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Stig Posted 8 July 2007 Share Posted 8 July 2007 You often need a bit of experience so I think RF would be a good signing, however there's more chance of us selling Hume on a free to Quorn than Elvis for 1 Million! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joe. Posted 8 July 2007 Share Posted 8 July 2007 It's obvious he's made that page himself Robbie Fowler could sign for Leicester. If the striker moves he will be joined at the Foxes by former Charlton defender Talal El Karkouri. (People) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blue Bob Posted 8 July 2007 Share Posted 8 July 2007 If this speculation is true, and I am taking it with a pinch of salt, I would have to say that Fowler is a proven goal scorer who at this level, if he stays fit, will score plenty of goals. According to Fowler earlier this week he had no interest so to now have eight is pretty amazing. Would he come here, not so sure, but if he does it will certainly give the opposition defences something to fear. Is that worth £22,000 a week? we'll see if MM thinks so!!

Ozwin Posted 8 July 2007 Share Posted 8 July 2007 Definately. Just think he was one of the biggest players in the EPL a few seasons back with Liverpool, the first time around you don't just lose that. He'd be quality. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

davieG Posted 8 July 2007 Share Posted 8 July 2007 Update from sky Cardiff City have confirmed they have made an offer for Robbie Fowler. Fowler is looking for a new club after leaving Liverpool at the end of last season. The 32-year-old revealed earlier this week he was open to offers and that he was waiting to hold talks with interested clubs. Cardiff have made a firm offer for Fowler and Bluebirds chairman Peter Ridsdale is hoping the former Leeds hit-man will decide to move to Ninian Park. "We have offered an attractive package and are hopeful Robbie will decide to come to Cardiff City," Ridsdale told Liverpool's official website "I think the calibre of the players the club is approaching shows how much we've progressed." Cardiff could face a fight to sign Fowler with the player's agent, George Scott, claiming eight clubs are chasing the prolific forward. "We've got eight offers on the table and Robbie is considering the lot of them," Scott told the Western Mail. "I can't see Rangers or Celtic being an option. They have each got too many strikers on their books and would need to off-load a couple first." "The one thing Robbie knows he wants is regular first-team football. Could it be at Cardiff? Why not? I think Cardiff, if they have the ambition, is the sort of place Robbie would thrive at. He could supply the goals to get them into the Premiership" "It is the sort of challenge he is looking for, to be honest. I see Dave Jones has said on TV he is interested if Robbie is available. Well he is available, so we need to talk. "I know Peter Ridsdale as well. He has my number." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
