However, I can't help but see this as a mere Google Page Ranking exercise from the owners. It seems to me like they have contrived a situation where they make a bid for a world class player, showing that they mean business. They know, however, that the player is unlikely to have ever heard of Blackburn Rovers, let alone wish to forgo a move to his native Brazil or a top quality team to play for them. Therefore the new owners are safe if the player doesn't join,having made the fans think that their 'top five team' plan is for real.

Maybe that's just me being too cynical.

my thoughts too tbh, but we can dream lol
