Stephen Warnock has told rovers.co.uk that he has not handed in a transfer request despite rumours in the press.It would seem that the full back was simply the latest "target" for the national press who seem hell bent on creating unrest within the team ahead of the new season.
Hardly a day goes by without a story appearing from nowhere suggesting there is a player revolt or criticising new manager Paul Ince.
It is unfair to even try judging Ince before a ball has been kicked in his first season as a Premiership manager, yet rumours like the one surrounding Warnock seem to hint there is a bad feeling within the Rovers camp.
However, the England international has rejected speculation that he is planning to follow Brad Friedel and David Bentley to the Ewood exit door.
"The reports are rubbish, I have not handed in a transfer request," Warnock explained to rovers.co.uk.
Meanwhile, all is not rosy for former boss Mark Hughes. The Manchester City manager hasn't been given the huge transfer kitty promised by the club as they lured him away from Ewood Park. Instead it looks as though Hughes will be forced to sell players first if he wants to add fresh faces to the squad.
Reports say that the Welshman is concerned about recent attempts to sell players without his consent. Although the City job isn't perhaps turning out the way it was advertised Mark Hughes has no intentions of walking away from the Manchester club.
