Arsenal didn't get half the fee. They received, courtesy of Spurs, a percentage of the profit Rovers made over the original £7m paid for him. More than enough to compensate for the solitary point that his flukey "wonder" goal contributed to.

Bob, Blackburn,

Thanks Ryan. Always nice to be patronised by our more sophisticated neighbours from that haven of progress that is Manchestoh.

Incidentally, the vast majority of Blackburn fans are local, a concept which is obviously very difficult for some of you glory hunters to comprehend.

Bob, Blackburn,

Notwithstanding the 1-0 mauling that multi-million pound Tottenham gave Rovers' remaining 10 men , we have been relegation fodder for about as long as Spurs have been certs to begin their domination of Europe. Still not happened yet has it? Spurs are a massive two points in front of us though.

Bob, Blackburn,

Bob, I thought Arsenal got 50% of the fee?

Blackburn Bob, Bentleys goal against Arsenal was worth at least 18 million!
Shall we call it evens?

Bob sounds like the typical local Blackburn fan. One can only laugh at the poor souls. Blackburn is a slightly backwards town and the clubs over-achievement is due to come to an end.

Ryan, Manchester, England

Well well Paul, I can only use one phrase to sum up how the other managers in the Premiership compare to you... men against boys. Ouch.

Chris, Twyford,

Enjoy the Championship Bob,

Jules , Northampton,

Joe Jordan was complaining at the perceived 'treatment' that Bentley (over-rated Beckham wannabe who can't make 2nd reserve for England and booked for simulation in this match) was receiving from Ooijer, a seasoned pro with a long and successful career with PSV and Holland. Thanks for the £18m.

Bob, Blackburn,

Dave in Wolverhamton. Hull City got a penalty at Old Trafford.

Tom, Bridlington, UK

Joe Jordan had a valid point! Paul Ince puts out a team in his own playing image - gutsy but scrappy and niggly. The referee indulged this style too much, while giving yellow cards to Bentley and Jenas when they themselves had been fouled.

Austin, London,

Ince has'nt got it................Men against boys.........

Alan, glasgow,

Paul, dry your eyes - you're losing the plot and we're all laughing at you

Terry Tibbs, Glasgow, UK

Ince is in way over his head.Will be fired come January and replaced by Allardyce.

R.Moss, Bolton, England

Poor Mr Ince. There are some other things that are certain in modern day football. If you have a player constantly hacking out at an opponent he will likely get sent off, especially if he has already been booked. That is neither Joe Jordan nor the referee's fault but indiscipline from the player.

Paul, Petersffield,

Ince will never change he has a chip on his shoulder as big as the UK he was the same when he played, he will always react like this.
Its probably the job is too big for him and he is cracking up.
Best get back to Milton Keynes or wherever he was a big fish in a little pond

J Barrett, Newcastle on Tyne, England

Poor Premier clubs have some substandard players.
Example: Blackburn's left back, red carded after
at least 3 dangerous tackles.

Answer: don't defend bad players.
Address gap between wealthy clubs and paupers


e.g. Man City Buffon bid 50 million?
Can Blackburn, Stoke etc match this?

Leigh Vernier, Riyadh, Saudi Arabia

Poor Mr Ince. There are some things that are certain in modern day football. One, that you are not going to get penalties against Chelsea, Man U or Liverpool, particualrly at their grounds, and two, the same applies to any team managed by Harry Redknapp. No, I don't know why that is either.
