Was this from the same person that gave you you're details about Mason?
If so I'd take it with a HUGE pinch of salt.

Considering a "pinch of salt" is a tiny measure, what is a HUGE pinch of salt?

So for clarity, you can only read that chaps posts, providing your given a HUGE pinch of salt by that bloke, or someone similar?
Personally I believe that the guys hands are normal and it's the woman who is in the wrong, with incredibly tiny hands.

That's Zhao-Liang, the World's tallest man (reet good at basketball) of course he has massive hands, very busy at this time of year appearing in "Jack And The Beanstalk" with Linda and Maureen from THE NOLANS at The Shaw Theatre. As well as his usual pinch of salt duties.

| Good short term option really, bags of experience to rub off on the younger players and still a handful.

That's how this game works, there's only me that's against it so far.
If his brother started posting on here shouting at people when they opine that Keef's rubbish like he used to years ago on Sub Standard then I'll be all in favour.

Depends on the player I suppose, Keith Senior is still a very good SL level player.

| Balls, past it now and not played since his injury. The only factor making this worthwhile would be the pay as you play deal being murmured, otherwise steer clear.

| Does a murmured rumour have more or less substance than one said in a load authoritative voice, say, like Brian Blessed?

Or
Tony Martin (Example) = small contract and 33 at the end of next season, vs Senior = 36
I'm not saying Martin is a good signing, far from it, and made this point in rather stronger terms at the time. Key difference = FC fans being able to say what they see, rather than say "If it's a deal done by Mike Smith, it must be utterly brilliant."

| Senior? My god, don't any of you ever criticise us again.
When did he last play? Hasn't he just had a knee reconstruction? Which he's then had several problems with in rehabilitation due to infections? Isn't he 36?
You've really outdone us this time, well done.
He won't sign on a pay as you play deal either, what's in that for him? Are those contracts even allowed with a live cap? How much cap you going to keep spare in case he's needed?
Baffling signing.

| Oh give over, get off your knees and put the tissues away.
It's an HDM exclusive which means it's probably as crap as Reece Lyne, if it's true, however, and we do sign Senior, more fool us. We can still laugh at your lot though, of course we can, because you say we can't or shouldn't just makes it more worthwhile.

I posted in reference to your own fans reactions (noted, not yours) to the HDM 'exclusive' rather than the 'exclusive' itself.

You are choosing to ignore the comparison with the ridicule pointed at the signing of the 2 and a half years younger Martin, I see, which is understandable.
But the inescapable fact is that it is extremely rare for signings by Rovers, even ones that are the height of mediocrity or ones with ludicrous hype (Ratu, Fozzard, Ward, Mason, blah, blah, blah) are welcomed on here with "Great signing in the context of <insert comment on magnificent potential if unproven, incredible experience to bring off the pitch if past it>. Perhaps on FC's board we are overly critical, with a universal lukewarm, if not downright frosty, reception for the likes of Aspinwall and Martin, but we do at least apply some sort of critique. Considering both sides are much of a muchness and mid-table mediocrity fodder, I'd say we are nearer to reality. Just an observation.

| Sport is about hopes and aspirations, what's the point in being miserable about your own team??
On the other point, all Martin;'s are brill, plaice or Lemon Sole.

'" 'I'm not saying Martin is a good signing, far from it, and made this point in rather stronger terms at the time.'
'Key difference = FC fans being able to say what they see, rather than say "If it's a deal done by Mike Smith, it must be utterly brilliant.'
So in the one breath you are saying that YOU don't like the signing but then state that FC FANS (Notice the plural there without the word 'some'?) are able to say what they see, rather than say 'Blah, Blah'
Even a one eyed FC fan can see what you were saying and it was rather a silly thing to say.
Like I said please quote me saying that ta.
Infact in the post above you have confirmed you WERE talking in the universal plural with the line 'Perhaps on FC's board we are overly critical, with a universal lukewarm, if not downright frosty, reception for the likes of Aspinwall and Martin, but we do at least apply some sort of critique.'
So I think we can confirm you WERE saying what I thought you were ta.
Unless of course you can explain what you meant by 'universal'
Oh and also if this rumour is true then there is everychance we will be paying Senior a fair bit less (Who is the first 17 is he going to get in front of?) than you are paying for Martin, Still as long as you are happy.
