Quoted from Mariner93er
I think Hooper's going to be the striker we all want to see signed. He's quick, strong and clearly has ability. But it's a matter of getting him to perform. In terms of Vernam liking to come short, you need that kind of player to link up play with the midfielders in the formation it looks like we'll be playing.


I agree with this. He´s clearly a player who needs a lot of man management and some understanding from his manager which is why he fared so poorly under Slade. But Jolley has shown that he can get more out of them in a very short space of time than Slade could so if he gets JJ some confidence there´s no reason he couldn´t bag 15/20 for us this season.

Maybe the striker signing for Town Bentley heard about was Scott Vernon for Clee Town.


Through the door there came familiar laughter,
I saw your face and heard you call my name.
Oh my friend we're older but no wiser,
For in our hearts the dreams are still the same.

I have it from a very good source that our new striker will be signing this week, Roy of the Rovers, having a medical this afternoon as Jolley just wants to ensure a 64 year old can still leap like a salmon. My source, Desperate Dan.

Quoted from Bentley
Defo a striker signing before Saturday. From what I hear a satment of intent from the board well done if true.


Looks like Bentley was right all along.......Jolley is interviewed about the Vernam signing on iFollow in Rotherham's ground so I assume the deal was done last Friday.



When Leeds trainer Les Cocker was once told Norman Hunter had broken a leg, he asked: “Whose is it?”

Quick-everyone who gave Bentley a red cross change it to a green tick.  WELL DONE BENTLEY-YOU ARE NOW POSTER OF THE WEEK-   keep the good work up.
