He'll be linked with the Rovers job whenever Berg decides to leave/gets sacked.

Fantastic signing for Accrington. I don't think they'll be able to afford him past January though unfortunately.

Nobody tell Shebby he used to play for us right?

Another waster, like Dunn, who put pies and beer before his career.

Done alright, but could have been much better if he'd taken his career seriously.

Will always remember his debut for rovers.

What a lesson he was taught that day

I'd say quite the opposite . He's a millionaire with little pace and a severe lack of technical ability who got a break when wages went through the roof. He's over achieved in my opinion.

Tend to agree with this, he's never been overly prolific really. His best return was at Sheffield United IIRC, and this was after dropping down from the Prem.

He'll be able to follow the Rovers again.....happy to have another supporter!

He was brilliant at Southampton and is a bit of a legend down there. Good luck to him, least he's giving it a go rather than resting on his laurels.
