fabio Posted August 20, 2014 Report Share Posted August 20, 2014 I said to my mate last night we needed more options upfront and it will make us bid again for him this is great news. Fingers crossed he signs now though. Not sure if anyone will be off but my guess is it won't be sammy hopefully no one as that's a hell of a strick force with all 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Who Are Rovers? Posted August 20, 2014 Report Share Posted August 20, 2014 JET needs game time whether Agard signs or not. The fact is, with a player of JET's ability, we should of been building the team around him, not trying to fit him into it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chowie Posted August 20, 2014 Report Share Posted August 20, 2014 SC also mentions his pre-game concerns about Orient's 4 quality strikers in the player interview last night. Think he wants the same and for other clubs to worry about our front line squad depth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drew Peacock Posted August 20, 2014 Report Share Posted August 20, 2014 I suspect the aggressive bids were bullshit made up by Rotherham to try and encourage us to bid high. I expect we didn't significantly increase as we seem to have wised up a bit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The fact is, with a player of JET's ability, we should of been building the team around him, not trying to fit him into it. Why should he be promised a position? He needs to work to be in the team, prove some people wrong, especially his manager.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
B-Rizzle Posted August 20, 2014 Report Share Posted August 20, 2014 Pleased about this news and hope we get it done. However, can't see how a league one team can have three players that scored over 20 goals in lg 1 the previous season. There's no way we can accommodate everyone. I know it's a long old season and you need depth but I fully expect one of Baldock or JET to move on, more likely being JET. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fabio Posted August 20, 2014 Report Share Posted August 20, 2014 The team would have sammy and Wilbs rotating with agard and then jet as supersub unless there's any injury. Then we have Reid and burns who could fill in on top sounds and looks like a promotion winning strikeforce to me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CiderJar Posted August 20, 2014 Report Share Posted August 20, 2014 @alidurdenBBC: Rotherham have received a new bid for striker Keiran Agard that is close to meeting their valuation. It's not from #BristolCity Alistair Durden ?@alidurdenBBC 34mI understand #BristolCity have now agreed a fee with Rotherham for striker Keiran Agard, and he is free to discuss personal terms.Poor old Ali Durden, he doesn't know anything really does he?

Then we have Reid and burns who could fill in on top sounds and looks like a promotion winning strikeforce to me Reid will go out on loan im pretty certain of that. Possibly even Burn's aswell.. To be fair some serious progression is needed from Some of the young'uns this season especially Reid.. The manager is showing his intent in bringing in the likes of Agard.. Dont think the club will hang around for the academy lads too long. We will be coming up to the point very soon where it will be now or never for most of them.

fabio Posted August 20, 2014 Report Share Posted August 20, 2014 Fair point but if in loan and we get hit with a major injury one would be recalled IMO. But still great strength in the squad as a whole Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pongo88 Posted August 20, 2014 Report Share Posted August 20, 2014 My only worry is,that the gas come in for him at the last minuteHe hasn't got a beard, doesn't look like a fisherman and doesn't work part time in another job. Therefore he will not be good enough for the gas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tunnie123 Posted August 20, 2014 Report Share Posted August 20, 2014 I'm not complaining, more just wandering why a proem goal scorer who could do the job in the championship is happy dropping down to the league he worked his ass off last season to get out of?

Mendip City Posted August 20, 2014 Report Share Posted August 20, 2014 Reid will go out on loan im pretty certain of that. Possibly even Burn's aswell..

Dont think the club will hang around for the academy lads too long. We will be coming up to the point very soon where it will be now or never for most of them. You're right about the young uns. None has convinced so far and when we get promoted, how are they ever going to get a sniff of Championship football. I've seen flashes of promise from all 3 but predict they'll go the nearly-but-not-quite way of most of our youngsters. (Hope I'm wrong). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But other clubs also showing interest and deal far from done." @AndyStockhausen: Bristol City making no comment at this stage.

Both do a very good corner count I'll give them that. But beyond that? Nothing. I'm sorry but I have to stick up for Ali Durden. I think he's a good commentator. I haven't checked Twitter so if this is a genuine Tweet from him then I tend to believe him. He certainly isn't one to tweet without substance.
