I hear from a Blades work mate that they have signed (or are signing) JCR from Notts Co. As I said the other week I wouldn't have minded him back for us but the general consensus on here was a definite no.
Don't think he's anywhere near the player we sold to Bristol City, getting on in years now. If that's the sort of player Sheff U are targeting then I don't think they'll be as much of a runaway favourite as a lot of people are making out.
Alan Biggs will be on twitter soon, saying that's a brilliant signing. Think he wants to shag Nigel Clough. edit - just looked - he has.
JCR on move to BL "without doubt this is the biggest club I've played for, I can't wait to get started" #sufc #twitterblades
I haven't seen any League 1 football this season (with the exception of some of the standard we've played) but have taken note of the play off's since our relegation was confirmed. Rotherham seem to play a very pacey style like we played with Shuker, Devanney and Hayes when we were last in L1. I hope this style is adopted this coming season with some good flowing attacking football. For that reason, I don't think JCR would have been a suitable target for us. He's getting on a bit now and surely will lose if not already lost his pace.
How's this happened I didn't think you could sign players until last week in July ? Must be because they've known which league they'll be in next season since January eh wonder how long they've had their season ticket money in
One of the stars in that division last season, to be fair. But I expected the Blunts to be shopping a little higher if I'm honest, what with their Arab owner and lucrative cup run. Suppose it adds to the occasion when we beat them twice.
He not their type of player at all & they will be moaning about him on radio de da within 5 games. I think we got his best football out of him.
We can and we have several times. There's no rush to sign players is there? After all they can't play until August. No point jumping the gun and signing has been players for the sake of it, like Campbell Ryce. Sent from my SM-G900F using Tapatalk
Will play a few games then disappear for a couple of months before being released by mutual consent, I really hope he is the claibre of player they are looking at all summer
If with a rich owner and cup run they are being linked to garbage like JCR, I dread to think who we are after
