On radio humberside bout rovers ......... In the morning

Your signing McGoldrick.

Bogg off BB

South stand development !!

Thats what im hoping it is... coss we dont want him!! (please please please)

No chance we signing mcgoldrick rovers ain't that desperate never ever Trevor I quite like rover49 scenario however I think it could be about player or players hang on isn't this the mike White who says fc signed Mcdonnell

Lovegrove. New 3 year deal according to humberside on twitter.

Phew that's a relief for a minute I thought he was of to fc must ave dreamt that lol
Absolutely brill news welll done kr for securing this deal.

could it be bout ben galea?

No. Its about Rhys.

An update on Ben's injury, its a grade one tear so it will be more towards 4 wks than 2 or 3.

Apologies.

I've just heard Rover's won't be offering him a new contract. Its overshadowed the Rhys news IMO.

This is a real double-edged sword. Gutted that Galea will be going, although given his <50% availability this season, I can understand the club's rationale. I truly hope he gets the send off he has earned, a brilliant signing for Rovers who has never been anything less than 100% professional in his Rovers career.

On the flipside, great news over the Lovegrove retention - another who was "nailed on" to cross the river. Just need Taylor sorting now.

You've got Hodgson, Cox, Lovegrove, Mika and your new signing.

Why would you keep Galea?

He's played really well this season and would still do a good job next year.

I don't see Hodgson's long term position as 2nd row, Cox still hasn't proved if he's gonna be good enough, Lovegrove is a prop. Other than that, I agree (sort of!).

The try Galea scored at Huddersfield is one that no-one else at the club could have, they need to learn from him how to run that type of line.

I'm not saying he hasn't but would you prefer to keep him for a year or sign Paterson for 2?

I think we have room for both. Even with Mika.

Really sad to see Ben go,he has been by far rovers best import since our return to the top flight I M O. That said i believe its the correct decision his body is obviously failing him, all the best Ben in whatever you do !posting.php?mode=reply&f=59&t=531800&tsmp=1341472087#

I am pleased for lovegrove he always tries is best and gives 100 ps

Totally agree regards Rhys now rovers have backed him he will get even better!

I am gutted bout Ben galea and I think if he could have carried on for the rest of the season he may have been offered another year.

Great news about Rhys, not so good about Ben. Been one of our better signings but i can see why Rovers offered a reduced salary, regular injuries creeping in. The signing of Paterson i feel gave scope for Rovers decision to not offer a new deal. Hope he gets another contract soon in S/L.

Surely there must be a couple of big signings due for next year? You've shed an absolute fortune in salaries since 2010.

i'd like to think so and with a couple more big earners leaving it must leave room for a big name, or are we shying away from them as such after some big names not living up to there billing/wages

It's all about building a team and squad capable of competing

Sure marquee big money signings appease the fans short term during another poor season but strength in depth when injuries bite is more worthwhile
