Owen has been a very busy man In the past week, having now completed the signing of 4 players for Blackburn. As this Rovers Revolution continues we have seen some familiar faces enter Ewood park and some who never left! But first lets take a look at so called "flying Feeney"
Feeney originally joined rovers back in the 20113/14 season and lets say he didn't have the best time. Only making 6 appearances and contributed basically nothing whilst on the field. But since he left Rovers his form has improved considerably! making just under 80 appearances for Bolton in just under 2 years. He scored 7 goals and got 5 assists last season. He also created 81 chances. At the age of 29 ,having signed a two year plus contract, it seems as though Feeney may end he's career at Blackburn. Although he hasn't had a star studded career Feeney will want some of his final years to be his best so hopefully he can bag a few goals like this...
Stephen Hendrie
Hendrie came as a surprise to most. It is widely accepted that Blackburn need to add some defenders to their ranks but no would have guessed that Hendrie was going to be the first to bolster that defence. Relatively unknown the Scottish under 21 has received mixed opinions as fans don't know weather to react excited or scared that a young defender will be siting in our back line.so here are some stats and facts:
He made 100 appearances for Hamilton before the age of 20.
He has been part of the Scottish national team since u17 level.
Made his brake through at only 16 making he's debut in July 2011 and then received a call up to the Scottish u17 in October of the same year.
He scored his first ever goal for Southend last season as you can see below...(skip to the end)

Danny Graham
You just have to love this guy. At the end of last season I and many others were convinced that he was going to leave. Having only been on loan and a contract running down I thought that many other championship clubs would come in and snatch him off us. Their had been reports that both Rangers and Celtic had been interested. And why not? He proved in only half a season that he still knows where the goal is and that he is willing to work incredibly hard to get it. Also with a new manager at the helm we thought that he may not appreciate Danny as much as we. But eventually after what seemed days of speculation it was reviled that Danny was staying and I cannot say how happy I am about that. Continue the way that he is Owen may yet re-build a sinking ship.
