I don't thing he does and I don't think a young striker could save Blackburn in the current state that they are in.

I believe he was a panic buy for them.

Goodwillie needs a season at our level to learn his trade.

You are correct, I don't believe there is anything in the rulebook about loaning a player out after you have bought him.

Come on now, Scotland has been a goldmine for us in recent years.

And believe I Goodwillie is better then all the Scottish players we have signed in recent years.

Not allowed, as you can only play for 2 clubs in one season under fifa rules.....he's played for blackburn and dundee so we cant.....same reason why the romelu lukaku deal to stoke fell through.
