    Just been announced. Not sure what to think. Think we are looking backwards rather than forwards now.

    The spreadsheet has been torn up with now both our summer signings having zero resale value.

    Decent move where we are at.
    We have young talent like James and Shepherd who will benefit, and raw players like MDG, Pines and Lopata who can also only benefit.

    Experienced in an area where we're badly lacking in it. Can't grumble.

    Simply no pleasing our fanbase,

    Fans “sign someone with experience, instead of all these young players”

    Club “ok here’s Marc Roberts”

    Fans “we’re looking backwards not forwards”

    It's an interesting u-turn definitely.

    But the value they will add to those around them will be huge. See Sollbauer and Mads as the prime example

    Perhaps a positive for player retention that we'll have a few that have moved from here to elsewhere and come back, so can see the benefits of the club to those now here.

    Did we have some sort of cyber attack that we have had to rollback to a prior backup?

    Not the signing I would have made personally, but fully behind the lad. Welcome back Robbo lad.

    Totally disagree. For years we have been crying out for experience alongside young players to help them develop. He has that, is a good quality player and an affinity to the club. What’s not to like?

    plus has a monster of a throw in

    It'd be boring if we all thought the same.

    Personally, I don't mind us signing an experienced player, but it has to be someone who isn't at the detriment to the side. I really hope I'm proven wrong, but I'm not convinced Roberts is the answer.

    100% behind him mind.
