Done deal for 75k according to one poster on their forum Just seen that and there's not a whisper of it on here. I quite like the lack of leaks coming from our end at the minute. Highlights the gulf in professionalism the new lot have brought in.

Really good signing.
We’re definitely throwing money at it, but that’s what is needed to get back into the league.

Anyone object if I merge these two Rooney threads?

On paper a very good signing.
I just hope he is a decent character off the pitch and in the dressing room. He did celebrate in front of our fans last season and we have had players from that area cause issues in the past. Especially as we lost a couple of dressing room leaders last week who helped keep everyone's feet on the ground.

I like us having shithouses like that playing for us.

Heard rumour Alex Reid may be next in Not exactly prolific but maybe with us if true. With the signings already made certainly show the managements intent.

Really good signing there were 3 names i know for a fact would have been here last summer if the takeover hadn't took forever to go through those 3 were, John Rooney, Richie Bennett and the last one was Jordan Williams we now have 2 of those 3
This isnt meant as a negative as these experienced players are probably whats required to get out of this devilishly difficult league its certainly a lot harder than league 2, but slight worry in the medium to long term that the profile of our squad is largely 28-31 year olds so there is no real resale value in these players which is fine if we are in a position to foot the bill and accept that when giving 3yr contracts out to these players, but I would like to see a few more in 21-24 bracket that can come in ready to do a job and potentially be a more saleable asset in terms of a sustainable model

Excellent signing. Interesting to read from the barrow statement that they claim he didnt want to play league 2 football so allowed him to go. Whats all that about then, what if we are in the FL in 12 months time then what?

I look forward to you merging seventeen ‘GOAL’ threads. We'll need to suss this out properly when games come around. For me, there should be one match thread that starts some point in the week with predictions/team news etc and is followed through until Saturday night/Sunday morning with score updates, match reports etc. Makes everything nice and easy and is good to read back through in the future. It won't happen, obviously, but that's how I'd like it to work.
