Ross Stewart an adequate replacement for BBD?

Discuss.

2 very different players and position wise aswell. 

Stewart is a good signing if we can make it happen.

Yes we'd also need someone who can play on the left if BBD went. I meant more replacing the goals than the actual position.

id`e take the sacrifice,stewart is target man type who can hold the ball up and contribute goals,gallagher can`t do that well and i don`t know what hirst brings(though he still does`nt look match fit)stewart more like a mobile danny graham,what we need imo

Rod used to be on Brentford’s books as a lad.

[only2garners]

Rod’s definitely a right winger.

Both.

Think we should still replace Diaz with Dembele 

[47er]

A front line of Brereton,Dolan and Hedges doesn't exactly strike terror into opposition defences does it?

We need someone central (and tough) to take these centre-backs on. With Dack just behind him to put him through.

there will be some serious scouting going  on at the moment come january transfer window i expect diaz to be sold and jdt`s choice of player to arrive here,i don`t think in any way he`s got the personel he wants,going to be some departures as well

Diaz won’t be sold he will sign for a Spanish club for free I bet.

Far too small and nowhere near physical enough. Dembele is basically a better version of Dolan.

He doesn't score goals with regularity.I wouldn't mind Dembele but not as a Brererton replacement

He’s a similar player in as far as running with the ball is concerned but as you say - he doesn’t get as many goals as BBD.

I also like Stewart and if we can sign him cheap or on a free transfer then I would doing it

I hope the club is currently looking for a signing for the left side forward position for next season

I've said in previous posts. Either Sevilla or Valenica in my opinion he will sign a pre contract with

[chaddyrovers]

Looks like Cardiff will leave caretaker manager Mark Hudson in charge. They don't appear to have any plans to bring in external appointment at this stage. 

In my opinion, it makes sacking Steve Morrison even stranger than I did before.

Very strange decision. Number 2s really work long term, and it's not like he's taking over from a successful manager with the foundations in place for success.

Once or twice I've seen them this season and they've looked either superb (Birmingham) or woeful. They seem to struggle in front of goal, a problem that has plagued them for a while now.

Your last point could equally be describing the Rovers.

[islander200]

Paul Warne being strongly linked with Derby.

Was linked here be interesting to see how he does at a club with higher expectations than Rotherham if he does join Derby 

[roversfan99]

Can only think that he will be about to earn significantly more, and will dress it up with the usual new challenge rhetoric. Cant really blame him if so though.

[chaddyrovers]

no surprised that Derby wants Warne as their next manager. They are under new ownership and its bigger club than Rotherham. Probably a bigger budget than Rotherham for him. 

He has done a very good job at Rotherham 

[Tyrone Shoelaces]

David Unsworth, who was talked about regarding the Roverd job, is the new manager at Oldham.

[chaddyrovers]

Paul Warne has left Rotherham for Derby now. 

Rotherham chairman has said they already had 30 people applying for job before Warne deal was confirmed. I think Mark Bonner or someone Jonathan Woodgate would be good options for them

[roversfan99]

Appointing Woodgate would be a one way ticket to League 1, what he has done to suggest being a good option is beyond me.

Rotherham are in a weird situation, the definition of a yo-yo club but seem more competitive than usual at this level. That being said, they have had their manager poached by a League 1 club which perhaps suggests that they don't have much money to offer their manager, so they will have to be creative.

Do they maybe tempt Warnock into a last hurrah at a former club, giving them the best possible chance of a second season, or maybe try and poach someone themselves like Gareth Ainsworth?

[chaddyrovers]

Warnock, did nothing at Boro in his last job. Yet again another manager should be left in retirement. 

Woodgate got Bournemouth to playoffs when he was caretaker for half season. 

IMO,  Rotherham need a new manager. I stand by 2 suggestions
