STUART Ripley is set for talks with Southampton - but stresses that he is in no hurry to leave Ewood Park.
Blackburn Rovers have accepted a bid for £1.5 million from the Saints for the 30-year-old winger.
And Ripley confirmed that he will talk to Southampton boss David Jones next week to see what is on offer at the Dell and to weigh up his options.
"The bid has been made and accepted and that in itself tells a story," said Ripley.
Rovers' latest Double Your Money £500 winner is 650A (P Matthewman of Blackburn).
Existing Blackburn Rovers season ticket holders are reminded that the last date for guaranteed renewal of their existing seat is Saturday, July 4, 1998. For further details on season tickets either visit the stadium or call the season ticket hotline free on 0321 one-nil one-nil one-nil.
