As long as he's kissing our badge two or three times every game then I'll be more than happy. Smile

For all his faults, his goal against the Hun tribute act gave my two laddies, and probably most Rovers fans under the age of 25, their greatest moment, so far.
As far as I'm concerned, I hope he's sooked the face of the lion on our jersey by the time Santa comes.

Not just a goal scorer but a great link-up player. Very rarely wastes a pass, and always a danger to the opposition. Time will tell if he still has the pace and stamina needed, but even just coming off the bench for 20 minutes he’s well worth his wages (if he’s earning anything as an ‘amateur’ signing 😀).

Was just reading that. Does that mean he is not actually signed as yet?

He has signed, he has a very long pen.

Trained today with the full timers. Imagine once he's trained a few weeks he'll be good to go. Unsure if any closed door games have been arranged.

He's played regularly in the second tier of Australian state football over the summer, so he'll be fit enough, and match fit enough.

And, yes, he did pretty well, scoring a few goals, linking up well and, by all accounts, being a good positive influence in the dressing room. Kinda like you would've expected.

So I say welcome back JB, another piece in John McG's jigsaw that has us back in the Championship in 2020

I see he has not lost the ability to not chase ball that are played into the corners but turn around and moan. Hasn't changed a bit. Hope he is not being put up to replace Vaughn whilst he's out injured. Prefer any of the two yougnster Bowie or Smith before him. At least they chase balls and through passes. End of rant get well soon Louis.

Baird staying until the seasons end, that's a surprise.
Wont please everyone but if he performs more like he did on Saturday it'll be a huge plus.
