Great News.

Hanley will be here next season. was our Best CB last season.

[Tom]

Good news

He was potentially heading elsewhere but the managerial merry go round in the premier league probably put an end to that

[Batman.]

Not bothered.

[T.J.Newton]

More good news, the clubs on a role this week(this must be killing some people )

The obscure thread title needs changing - and quick - to avoid getting people's hopes up.

I'm sure I wasn't the only one hoping Venkys were off.

[DE.]

[tkturner]

Good news, retaining the guys who actually put a bit of effort in is essential

[Mafioso]

[Stuart]

Done

What was the title?

Hanley played well last season and I'm pleased to see him stay. He's not a top drawer defender but he's good and should get better with age. Wish he'd lose a few pounds (weight) though.

[LDRover]

He's decent, certainly not in the top ten central defenders in the league but he can only improve.

However, I'm sure that the main thing about this deal will be a minimum release clause.

[rovers11]

Great news. All this deal means is that he'll be here next season and certainly not the next 5 years. Contracts are worthless nowadays. He'll be off next summer if we don't get promoted.

[davulsukur]

Good news. Bowyer rates him highly from the praise he gave him last season.

[Lhrover]

One of our best players imo

[Batman.]

One of our best players imo

Hence us finishing in our lowest league position in over two decades.

[patrickvalery]

Can't fault his effort and that is always nice to see. But sometimes playing center half means playing cutely as well as booming tackles and gargantuan headers. When he learns how to do this he might be a top level player. But, as is the case with most championship and below level clubs, we'll almost certainly never see that rounded performance from Hanley because its our job to produce the raw essentials and sell to a PL side who can apply the finishing touches. Such is life. Glad he is signed up. If nothing else it means another first teamer who won't need bedding in next season.

Better to keep our best players.

[roverandout]

rovers don't have any 'best players' (apart from Rhodes)

[TBTF]

I am defo renewing now!!

Nothing against the lad but if thats us on a roll (not role) then i fear for us.

Very odd that every player news so far is an additional cost........ am i missing something or is there a coach getting ready to leave??
