Doubt it, would be very expensive you would think as he was championship top scorer last season and I believe signed a contract extension at Swansea earlier this year.

Did you miss the 50 odd posts in this very thread confirming he's signed for them?

It was even publicised by a well known, very trustworthy local Blackburn journalist.

Time to move on.

What are you talking about? He signed for Blackburn. 2 year deal 

Can’t believe he signed for Blackburn (as confirmed by Dave from Slough on Twitter and is still talking to Swansea……

He is a good player and will cost £0 in a transfer fee. They have probably offered him a bigger contract than us.

Suspect the Swansea move is made up BS personally...  The guy who tweeted it is pretty unreliable, and usually you'd get a better source (like Romano) verifying it quite quickly afterwards

Longer quite possibly, bigger financially I doubt very much.

Well that's a shit move for him. Don't understand that at all.

It's a smokescreen so Ross can concentrate on his main target. Which is Blackburn

1 year v 3 years.

i suspect if it works out that way he will pocket more money at Swansea

He might also just want a fresh start. Everything about his time here screams treatment rooms and injuries. Could just be a simple as that.

If he gets a straight three year deal at any club, his fuckin agent is a genius.

International, former Premier League player who spent the summer at the World Cup.

Some pretty strong selling points there

With what, a total of about four minutes game time

I do wonder if Stewart was the player who allegedly kicked off once we were kicked out the final. That was his chance to get the year extension and get to play in the Prem, to show he could cut it at that level and prove himself. Also, with fewer games and arguably a less physical demanding league, proven that he could have coped in the Prem. Would have set him up nicely to get that one last big contract. Instead he’s off to Swansea.

I reckon it was Scienza. 

[Cabrone]

If he stays healthy it's a cracking signing for them, when fit he was great.

Was kinda hoping we might have kept him but if a player wants out there's no point keeping them against their will. Best of luck to Ross.

So, who is going to replace him?

Let's not get bogged down with the details. That experience will look great on his CV!

[LiberalCommunist]

Looking forward to seeing him play, whilst it doesn't mean a gasp of anxiety when he goes to control the ball. 

No hard feelings, but also no tears.
