Breaking News: Mackems fail in Gallagher bid!

Paul Gallagher
Why?
It is said that the Blackburn have rejected loan moves from both Sunderland and Cardiff, as Gallagher is part of Hughes plans. Gallagher said.

"He said I am part of his plans and hopefully I can get a few games. I feel ready now and hopefully I will be able to get back in," said Gallagher.

"The training has been top class since he came in and the results will come."

I find this news a little odd to be honest. We have Stephen Elliott, Marcus Stewart, Michael Bridges, Chris Brown and Kevin Kyle on his way back from injury. We have better strikers on our books than blackburn, so I don't understand why Mick would make this move. I do feel however, that our lack of goals is due to Mick refusing to drop Marcus Stewart. I think Michael Bridges and Chris Brown both deserve their chance up front with Elliott.
