A lot depends on how Jones turns out. A lot of players just don't come back from the kind of injuries he's had. They may regain fitness but something changes with them and they never look the same player they did before. I really hope that's not the case with Jones, would be brilliant to add him...

I watched Rochdale a lot during the Keith Hill years and it was for the most part good entertaining football and he certainly had a knack of picking up either non League gems or players from divisions above who's career had stalled for whatever reason and managed to get the best out of them.

Agree he will be but can't see Scunthorpe picking up much of his wage, perhaps 50% at best?

Most of them are only on loan or short term contracts until January. Think it was just a case of who was available and willing to sign. Not a big pool to pick from. I still rate Keith Hill as a manager though, think he is as his best when given no money to spend and he knows how to hold his own...

By selling the stadium? Just a thought......

That's understandable, especially if they were paying some or all of Addai's wages.

Curious as to how we afforded this one, can't imagine it was a cheapy deal. Even allowing for Junior Brown going out on loan, i would imagine we are still paying the bulk of his wages and i'm certain MR stated more than once that the budget was spent unless more first teamers left. Not...

A low risk signing though and had he found fitness/form it could have been good. Some signings are just worth a punt.

Sunderland's new scout maybe?

I would never call them good owners but I don't think they are the worst. I also kind of appreciate that with SISU what you see is what you get. There's no pretence that it's about anything other than the money. I think I prefer that to some white knight charging in with grand plans only for it...

It is harsh on reflection. I only meant that people expected bigger and better things from him. Is he still playing?

Liam Davis..... Possibly, sounds familiar

Arguably McSheffrey. He did made a decent career for himself but I think many thought when he left for Birmingham thatd he'd kick on to bigger things. Can recall a few from the last few years who supposedly had potential, Jeffers, Cooney, seem to recall a winger who may or may not have been...

Busy day innit! New loan signing coming in too maybe?

I'd rather see him on the bench and getting minutes in the first team. We dithered with Ponticelli and I don't think it did us or him any favours. Chuck the lad in and see what happens

Presume he'll join them on a perm in January if they can afford him or else he'll have out himself in the shop window

MR alluded to a recurrent knee injury so that may be why he dropped out of the first team

He hasn't pulled up any trees in the U23 games

Didn't MR say after O' Hare came in that our business was done?

Don't think MR would have put Brown in the first team regardless.
