Tyrone Shoelaces Posted November 19, 2013 Share Posted November 19, 2013 Not heard of the lad at Rochdale. Good player? Lots of clubs watching him. Todays Rochdale Observer say Wolves are sniffing around. Rumours on the Dale site of a £ 300k bid from them. He's rated highly by the faithful at Spotland and Holt, LeFondre, Murray and Lambert all made their names there recently. I've not seen him play so I can't add much to the story.

Majiball Posted November 19, 2013 Share Posted November 19, 2013 Not heard of the lad at Rochdale. Good player? he's doing well there scoring and creating, they released him, he went non league for a year and now he's easily there main man having signed in the summer. he may need a bit longer before he's ready for the championship but if his current form continues he'd be worth the punt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chaddyrovers Posted November 19, 2013 Share Posted November 19, 2013 if we could ever get rid of Best then I would like to see us sign a target man type of striker. tho I defo would like to sign Wells from Bradford. very quick player. could add pace to our strikers which we lack Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wonder if the 'Dale would do a straight swap ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FGS5635 Posted November 20, 2013 Share Posted November 20, 2013 I'd look for a left sided player and start playing King up top. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mullionvagrant Posted November 20, 2013 Share Posted November 20, 2013 Aren't we in debt anyway!! Might as well just buy a few more strikers on large wages and offer them 10 year contracts. We could even sell Rhodes, Dunn and Rochina. If we really search around i'm sure we can find a few whose legs have gone a few years ago and have huge egos....you know the type- like sitting on the bench, love twitter, can't spell!!

Neal Posted November 20, 2013 Author Share Posted November 20, 2013 Personally like the idea of buying the best from the leagues below us. Less risk, lower wages &lower expectations... Such as the lad at Rochdale. We are what we are as they say. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mullionvagrant Posted November 20, 2013 Share Posted November 20, 2013 I know it's not the correct place (couldn't find where best to discuss this) but with regard to players etc. Fabio Nunes?? I'm presuming contractual clauses/agent add ons etc...but surly rather than pay additional wages for a striker etc but as an attacking winger he could get a small run on the pitch???

thenodrog Posted November 22, 2013 Share Posted November 22, 2013 With our bleak outlook decent players and their agents are hardly going to be wetting themselves at the prospect of signing for BRFC are they? I'd imagine that the best that we could hope for would be Shefki Kuqi. ! sorry TJ.... just read your post. Great minds eh? We have Rhodes and both Rochina and Dunn to compete to play off him. No one will take Best or DJ so they can be back up. If we are to sign a player, then our biggest weakness is in goal. Quite right. Always build from the back.

McClarky Posted November 22, 2013 Share Posted November 22, 2013 This bloke has 12 in 81 over 5 years. Would we not be better trying to bring someone through from our u21 ranks rather than splurging more cash out on someone with such a meagre goals return who probably won't get in our team anyway. You would even back Campbell or Best to score ahead of this fella.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jimmy612 Posted November 22, 2013 Share Posted November 22, 2013 he is a target man type of striker we need in the squad. we dont have this IMO in the squad Agreed Chad. For those complaining about his goal tally - I get the felling that more often than not he will be used as an outlet when it's backs to the wall. Not as our main talisman. If he's decent back to goal and can hold it up and bring the '3' behind into the game then I would be happy to see him arrive. Something we've been crying out for since we lost Yak, and could be absolutely key to us relieving pressure away from home. Only question would be is he here to sit on the bench and do the last 25mins or is he here to partner Rhodes? Might I add Sam Vokes had only scored 20 odd in nearly 150 games before this season. He's just banged in 9 in 15. I'd take that at the moment, wouldn't you? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Amo Posted November 22, 2013 Share Posted November 22, 2013 Rhodes will score enough goals for the pair of them. We just need a half-decent targetman to complement what's lacking from Jordan's game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
roversfan99 Posted November 22, 2013 Share Posted November 22, 2013 No we dont, any time we have played with Best and Rhodes for example, that has left us outnumbered in midfield and leads to lots of long ball which leaves Rhodes redundant. Rhodes plays better with someone like Dunn linking him and the rest of the team, which youd have seen if you attended games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
