" LATEST NEWS ON LOOVENS/RIGGOT/PARKIN "
Its My Belief " LOOVENS " will not be Coming to Cardiff, NO FAULT By CARDIFF CITY or DJ, Celtic Dont Want Him and Loovens Does Not Seem to Want US.
It is My Belief that " CHRIS RIGGOT " Will be leaving Cardiff City and Due to injuries City Can tear up the contract up(Clause in there).
I also have been told " JON PARKIN " Will Start tomorrow at Stoke City
Fri Jan 07, 2011 4:10 pm
Really need a centre back then!
what do you think the chances of Woodgate, Shittu, Wilson are of coming here Annis?
Fri Jan 07, 2011 4:16 pm
Lerts forget about Loovens.
Riggott, shame really its turned out like this. At least some one thought about putting the clause in the contract.
Parkin, optomistic about him I am. Against us he should he had that killer instinct in front of goal. I think some of us who doubted this move will be pleasantly surprised.

Bit harsh on Riggott tbf, hes tried really hard to get back from injury
Its a hamstring injury and not his knee so its not that bad, I hope he stays I'm a big fan of his

DJ said something about the way Chris Riggots contract had been written in his press conference today, something about it not costing the club. I thought it was a strange answer to a question regarding his injury but obviously something is in the wind.
A pity because he did look to be a good player during the Coventry game

If Loovens doesnt want to come then he wont have much motivation to play well if he did come so best we forget about him.
Shame about Riggot, he played well with Hudson in the only game he has featured just troubled with injury problems. Glad Cardiff had a clause in the contract so we dont have to carry any more dead wood.
Good to see parking plays 2moro hope DJ gives other players a run out such as koumas matthews gypes and others that are struggling to try and regain some confidence.
To be honest i hope we go out early as a cup run would cause even more unnecessary injuries and jilter our promotion push even more. Hope we play well but lose respectivley

From what I saw from Riggot, he's a decent CB. It's just a shame he's so injury prone. He's passionate too.
Loovens by the sounds of it is lost, and I don't want him. We desperatly need a CB.
Woodgate will spend his time injured here and Shittu is.. well his name says what he is.

If Loovens don't want us then we don't want him....let's forget about him and move on swiftly.
Poor Riggot, I won't be surprised to hear of his retirement due to injury sometime soon.

im gutted about riggot but you can t do anything about injurys just hope dj brings in a decent defender
b4 the tranfer window closes
Fri Jan 07, 2011 4:29 pm
Riggott had long enuff to prove fitness , Loovens had long enuff to prove he wants return visit - neither any great loss . Move on - look elsewhere !!

need at least 2 centre backs
Fri Jan 07, 2011 4:39 pm
Loovens probably lost it if he's out of favour do we really want him, has the Koumas saga written all over it
Riggot 3 Months wait 1 game and out, waste of money. Unlucky for him with injuries but plenty more fish in the sea.
Think the beast will be good its what we need another big player up front, we have a very short squad up front where the long ball rarely works with no JB.

i thought riggott done well against coventry, annis is he going then?
Fri Jan 07, 2011 4:46 pm
Let's go all out for Woodgate, he never gets injured :-s
Fri Jan 07, 2011 4:50 pm

Surely, if we signed Woodgate, we'd be in the same boat as we are with Riggot?

I Believe So.

I Believe So.
But Annis, all this talk about Woodgate, people are forgetting about his injury problems. No different from riggott in my opinion and a waste of a signing when there are younger, fitter players we could be looking to sign

Chippy it looks like at this moment as long as players have No Big Transfer Fees or Clubs Dont Want the money upfront, thats the players were going for, We are prepared to pay Big Wages.

I feel absolutely gutted for Riggott....all that time trying to get back fit. I really feel for him. It also raises the question that if we had a reserve team would have he still broken down again?
I'm torn on Loovens, there is no doubting his skills but if his heart isn't in it then why bother with him.
Also I am really looking forward to seeing Parkin in a City shirt. Lets give him a chance, he's got that something that us fans will relate to. He could become a bit of a fans favourite...like Leo was.
Fri Jan 07, 2011 6:06 pm
Terrible shame for the lad riggot, you can't help but feel for him the lad just needs a break.
Loovens can stick it as far as im concerned, think he's making a massive mistake - genuine chance to make it into the prem with a club he would already be familiar with. He can stay at celtic and sit on the bench.
Be good for Parkin to get a run out too, get him up to speed for the league games and familiar with the other lads in the team.

Harsh but true. No prizes for soft decisions in football.
Have every sympathy for Riggott, he looked the part to me when he played but clearly his body is knackered and it does sound like retirement pending as I thought poor lad. I'm pretty sure he was on a pay per play deal with city so doubt it cost us much.
Fri Jan 07, 2011 6:26 pm
Riggott should never have been signed. Funny how 90 other league clubs would'nt touch him with a barge pole. As for Loovens, no thanks.
Fri Jan 07, 2011 6:35 pm
Shame about Riggot as he is a good player, very unfortunate
Fri Jan 07, 2011 6:51 pm
What an update.
And we didn't have to wait
Fri Jan 07, 2011 6:58 pm
Perhaps we should try and sell him to Liverpool first for £8m
Fri Jan 07, 2011 7:10 pm
Fair play to Jones or whoever done the Riggott deal, looks like they covered every corner......imagine if PR had done it
Fri Jan 07, 2011 7:23 pm
sign curtis davies and danny shittu or woodgate , and vaughan maybe routledge
Fri Jan 07, 2011 8:39 pm
shame about riggot but why do dj constantly go after previous players forget loovens and go after someone who hasnt played for you
Fri Jan 07, 2011 8:42 pm
What was Riggots latest injury problem Annis ? I felt for the lad. As to Loovens it was clear he did not want to come back here and i do not want another passionless player here. Look forward to seeing how Parkin gets on tomorrow
