Am i right in saying that he has not played a 1st team game for a year. Had no squad number this season, and have been playing with the development team.
Played a couple of game on loan with West ham, where he got exposed.
How long will it take for him to get fit to play at champ level.?
I think a few people should read the TBH thread when we were linked and signed him.
Having great defenders doesn't score goals or win games. It just means that we might get a flukey win here and there (see Watford at home).
Couldn't agree more mate but in the absence of another forward coming on board we need to be solid at the back and If RoJo contributes to this then we have a chance to win games.
Let's face it we have been poor at set pieces / second ball from those all season and hopefully his aerial ability will help plus give us a threat at the other end assuming we can get some decent deliveries into the box for once.
Welcome Roger you come with a clean sheet for me and here's hoping you help achieve plenty of those in the remaining 18 matches.
Oh goody, another player who isn't match fit, along with Vetokel, Watt, Wiggins, Lepoint and Moussa who just isn't ever fit. Will Bulot be available on Saturday or will he have a minor injury as well

Released from contract so I assume a loan would not be agreed by Wolves (as we would not pay all his wages?), and he could of stayed and picked up his wages until the end of his contract, (but wanted to leave?).
The contract we have him on is not longer so it is not that.
The only conclusion I can draw is that he wants to earn a new contract and therefore wants to put himself in the shop window. Good news for us if this is correct as he will be putting in the effort.
I can see why negotiations went on a bit and of course I probably have it wrong. I would be interested to know why this sort of deal happens if I am wrong.

As you say, the chance to win a contract or put himself in the shop window.
If be interested to know if anybody else was interested in him.
I know when looking for players we're not shopping at Waitrose these days but it feels like we've been rummaging in the bins behind the Spar shop. (No offense Roger!!!)
A goalie (network) A midfielder (non network) A defensive midfielder (non network) A CB (not network)
Need another striker but we never got one let's see what comes in the loan market
Tut tut.... All these network signings!!! Grrrr (shakes head furiously)
Playing devils wossisname, 25% of our signings from five clubs out of a possible, what, 5 or 6 thousand in Europe? And matching you for sarcasm, as our massed ranks of sharpshooting strikers are regularly plundering three goals a game, that's shrewd recruitment TL...

Good luck to him.
V384 Roger William SMART Debut 25/08/1973
Eamonn was ROGERS.
The last time he looked decent was at Birmingham in 2010/11 season.
(scott dann had a good partnership with him)
That's a life time in football.
I am normally quite optimistic on signings.
