Speaking of strikers. Our old player Marcus Antonsson has scored 20 goals in 29 games this year (one game remaining). His contract is up at the end of the year.

Barry Douglas didn't leave much of an impression, on me at last.

It was funny, I was listening to a Swedish podcast about EFL, and they were discussing Sunderland. They thought it was so strange that Mowbray played so many players out of their natual positions. I was thinking to myself that it sounded vaguely familiar... 😉

There's a player I've never heard of! When did Bradley Who play for us? 😉

Agree. Brittain's first half was brilliant.

I was searching through older squads looking for a player who's name just escaped me (James Beattie). I found a player that I can't even remember his name at all; David Yelldell. Seems he was a goalkeeper in 04/05. Totally blank for me, don't even recognize the name, at all.

And also an awful person... "In November 2019 he was found guilty of match fixing by a Swedish court, and said he would appeal. Both Defence and Prosecution said they would appeal the sentence."

Oh yeah, that crap. Wasn't it something really absurd that Reed would have to learn to play CM by watching Richie Smallwood, or something like that? And Walton must be one of the worst keepers I've ever seen in a Rovers shirt, along with Jason Steele.

Henrique, CB from Portugal, anyone remember him? Radoslav Petrovic, Jordan Slew, Luke Varney, Simon Eastwood, Matt Grimes, Hope Akpan, Dominc Samuel, Wes Brown(!)... Wow, we've had a lot of forgettable players the last 10 years...

We mustn't (or we probably should to be honest) forget Julio Santa Cruz, the younger brother of Roque. He graced us with 11 games for the reserve team betweem 2008 and 2011.

DJ Campbell is another one I'd rather forget...

Not sure if this is the correct thread, please move if incorrect. The story of how Zidane almost joined us. https://youtu.be/TnQuKpmmj8U

Don't forget the man with probably the most ironic name in football; Leon Best. God I wish I could forget him. If I remember correctly, his only goal for us came when he scored an own goal while playing for another club...

Carlos Villanueva, another one of the forgotten ones. I remember him having some decent moments, but not much else.

It's very easy to forget that Dino Baggio and Youri Djorkaeff played for us (apologies if mentioned before).

His son is actually a decent player now, on the verge of the Swedish National Team. Plays for Lille OSC.

Wasn't that Formica? I remember reading something about Rovers helping him fix his teeth.

Wow, those names bring back so memories, especially for FM/CM. I remember Mamadi Keita becoming really good in Football Manager. My take on forgotten players, some Swedes (apologies if mentioned before) Niklas Gudmundsson Anders Andersson Patrik Andersson

Did he ask them to don't stop believin'?

@ whoever mentioned Birmancevic, seems he's on is way to Toulouse, according to Swedish media.

Sergio Pena wants out of Malmö it seems, don't know if he ever worked with JDT, but cracking player on his day. Peruvian national player as well, so should get a work permit. No idea if realistic or if he would come here.

Bellamy working as a coach at Burnley just feels so wrong. 😞

I booked tickets to Passenger in Gothenburg today. Although, to be honest I booked it mostly to see the opening act, Luke Sital-Singh. Class singer/songwriter. If you're into sad music.

Get in line mate! 😉

Ah, shit, sorry! I didn't see that you're Norwegian. 😂 Apologies. Got up at 4.30 this morning, have to blame that I guess...
