If you get into a debate with a Rotherham fan, you know where to go. Try to keep well away from Rotherham fans. Even when i am in Rotherham. Not difficult though as most support Wednesday, United or Leeds.

Anyone have any idea how to pronounce his first name ?

Back on topic, I see Harry Kane is 29 going on 30...No shortage of suitors it seems. No resale value? But too old/ too shit for us then?Marquis is 30. How many on here were crying out for us to sign him last year?Talk about tantrums and contradictions. I put it down to one or two posters needing their nappies changed!
Yes, I seem to remember folk moaning that May was rubbish and not good enough, get rid, etc. Funny how when these players go to another club, don't have fans on their back, they do much better. A bit of encouragement does wonders for their confidence and performances. Does make you wonder where the problem lies at times...Quote from: Donnybob on January 24, 2023, 10:04:10 amBack on topic, I see Harry Kane is 29 going on 30...No shortage of suitors it seems.

I hope that I am wrong, but adding another pension plan onto our payroll seems to be the idea of new blood coming into the squad, I hope he is fit, he has been running the line in National league, but is that at the same pace as Lg.2? What happens to George now this striker is here? We only play one up front, so he gets dropped? Or do we play him as a support to George, so we bench either Molyneux or Hurst, can he operate quickly enough to replace those options? We will see, good luck to him. I hope he makes a difference, but I hold my judgment.

Looks like a fox in the box. One of those who doesn't really care how they go in, either at pace or bubbling across the line.Prepared to have a go from all angles including overhead kicks. Perhaps an instinctive goalscorer and hopefully, a little bit sharper than AgardNot a hold up type player by the looks but he's been brought in to add another option to George and our other attacking players. Good luck to him. A great opportunity Saturday to make a mark in front of our fans at Mansfield should he get on to the pitch.

Fox in the box is an interesting analogy, I’d assumed he would be more of an all rounder given his ability to play across the forward line. Will be interesting to see how/where he fits in.
That’s the first time I can remember the local area being a reason (albeit minor) to join the club. Sounds like he lives in the town, sorry city. I like what he has to say, and I hope it works for both parties. Hopefully this puts all the silly rumours “ we won’t compete or pay with… to bed”Promotion is still within our sights, and I feel we are doing the right things to enable that. Come on you reds!
And yet Marquis has been far worse everywhere he has been since leaving us. Is that because the Portsmouth, Lincoln & Bristol Rovers fans are even worse?
