    New Stadium Announcement!!!!!!

    Agreed. This announcement has caused a lot of excitement. As things stand right now, it isn’t really anything substantive, yet. This announcement, if anything, is a statement of intent. The positive is that the club is at least outlining something resembling a credible plan going forward.

    New Stadium Announcement!!!!!!

    I can’t help but think owning/part ownership of the RICOH is a pipe dream. Realistically, the club needs to secure its long term future. We cannot do that if we’re renting a stadium from landlords we’ve been at odds with in and around a decade now. Two exiles from Coventry, constant legal...

    Striker

    It’s easy to underestimate the role of strong leaders in a team environment. In this respect, McFadz was also an astute signing because Kelly needed another leader in the team going into last season. It’s possibly why Stockdale made such an impact on loan in that 1st L1 season. We’re one of...

    Burge

    Why does anyone care about this anymore? Marosi was an upgrade, and let’s just leave Burge alone and wish him the best in his career. He’ll be a good L1 ‘keeper. With a bit of fortune, maybe even Championship if he cuts the errors out.

    Realistic Expectations next season

    Agreed, slightly concerned a few people are getting carried away a bit. The positive side of this is that it shows just how much progress we’re making! But, I’m keeping a lid on it for now. Anything above the relegation zone is a successful season for me. We need to model our growth on a...

    Realistic Expectations next season

    Genuine question: How many of their L2 players remained starters in that title-winning L1 side? I’m under the impression the teams were not too unchanged minus a couple of key signings. On the topic of the thread, the sole objective is to avoid relegation. With the right recruitment, there’s...

    Squad trimming

    It’s clear to see Robins sees something in him. At times, he does look like a good player, equally, he’s anonymous at times too. It’s probably his last season to prove his worth to MR. I can’t see him being higher than 3rd in the pecking order this season for the start of next season. As for...

    Julien Dacosta 2019/20 – scout report

    DaCosta seems like he’ll make a good utility player. Playing RB, LB and RCB will be useful!

    Bottom budget

    I’m not kidding myself, next season will be a tough one. But, I’m confident Covid-19 will level the playing field for us and Rotherham in particular. A lot of teams will be cutting back as a lot of Championship teams are already close to brinkmanship in the pursuit of their own Operation...

    Transfer Rumour Marcel Hilsner

    If first impressions was all it took, Kastaneer would be a starter in our team!

    Transfer Rumour Marcel Hilsner

    Fair point. Again, I’ll mention it in passing that my initial reaction was that the 3.Bundesliga was a 4th tier division, not a 3rd tier. I want Hilßner to be a smash hit, good pedigree, decent stats in the league he was in. Ultimately, I don’t know enough about him to make an informed...

    Transfer Rumour Callum O'Hare - Confirmed

    We play with wingbacks, McCallum and Dabo are our wide players. You may as well lump Kelly or Rose as ‘right sided’ players. Vincenti, Bayliss, Thomas and Jobello all played on the ride side of midfield, when we’ve played 4-4-2, 4-2-3-1, or 4-3-3. Our shape is 3-4-2-1, with the 4 central...

    Transfer Rumour Callum O'Hare - Confirmed

    Good point. Why not also put McFadzean upfront as a target man!?

    Transfer Rumour Jonathan Panzo

    Both players are young, and can conceivably get better with age. Shipley is 23 in September, and I think he’ll develop into a decent Championship midfielder. I also like Westbrook too and wouldn’t want to get rid of him. Unless, he’s had a fall out with MR or is having a disruptive influence...

    Transfer Rumour Callum O'Hare - Confirmed

    O’Hare doesn’t play on the right flank... he’s playing as one of two attacking midfielders behind a striker. A more accurate comparison would be Dabo, if anything.

    Who else do we need

    Allen is shorter than 5”8, no idea how he was listed at 5”11. He’s tiny.

    Transfer Rumour Jonathan Panzo

    I wouldn’t be too sure, with the (potential) introduction of 5 subs being allowed, it makes having a bulkier squad all the more important.

    Transfer Rumour Jonathan Panzo

    With our track record in developing talent, I can quickly see us becoming one of the most attractive clubs younger players. Sure, we don’t have the largest resources, but, we’re an ideal stepping stone for a lot of talented young players. For someone like Panzo, first team football in the...

    Transfer Rumour Marcel Hilsner

    I sincerely hope I am mistaken and he takes the Championship by storm and propels Operation Premiership forward by a few years!
