As expected, Paul Dickov has returned to the club, signing a two year deal and speaking in gushing terms about the club.
"Blackburn offered me a great deal to stay there, two years, and they were going into Europe, but I just felt that the chance of coming back here was too big a pull for me. Financially, I could have gone elsewhere but this is the club I support and it's one where I want to be successful."
Yes he will be a trier and give us all for the cause but I just can't see how he will offer an upgrade over anyone already at the club apart from as a 'role' player to come off from the bench and try and provide a spark to the team - and given the way we finished the season maybe that will be a vital role come next season.
