Turned to that Rochester Rhino piece and thought- at last Dan Williams proves us cynics wrong. Then I read:

Although Williams said no deal is “imminent,” and declined to put a dollar figure on a potential deal, he said his potential investment would be significant.

Unlike Rovers, Rhinos are going out of business.

Actually, for those (ie most) of you that don't follow the American lower leagues.... the Rhinos would be a decent club for someone to turn around.

they have one of the better followings in the USL, with an average attendance of near 10,000 a game, compared to a league average of 4,000. They are a USL 1 side not USL 2 as I think was mentioned. And they are routinely one of the better sides (6 league finals appearances since 1999 at least 1 league regular season title). They have a half finished stadium that could easily be finished to add value. They've routinely pulled off scalps of the MLS clubs in the US equivalent of the FA cup over recent seasons, in fact they are the only non-MLS side to have won it since the MLS was created (winning in 1999). Heck, their set up was respected well enough that their name had been bandied about as a potential future MLS expansion location, though they were known to be behind the likes of San Jose, Seattle, Philly, and a few others.

They've got Andy Cole?

That signing made me think, is there any other footballer that has played for both teams in more local derbies that "Andrew Cole"? (Man U & Citeh, Barcodes & Sunderland, Rovers & Dingles).

Does Arsenal V Fulham count also ???

We should get a match going between our first team and the apparent squad of trialists that we've had come and go this January!

The Cole deal is only a Loan. Mind you i'm sure even dingles will be glad to be rid come the end of the season.

Not even a hint of a permanent there though, at least we have one of them.

How many apparent trialists have we had now.

Yes everyone knows what a talent Garner was apart from Bobby Downes and his fellow chums! They are about to sell another big star from the Academy Mamadia Keita to Hamburg.............He spent a week on trial with the 1st team last week and this is a guy who cannot even get near the Blackburn reserves!!

Wake up Mr Williams and sort the Academy out..............

PS Neal Trotman has Joined PNE..............Like someone said Rovers sat on there Hands!
