Been slaughtered by the fans not good enough any more at this level ,
Interesting that he's played just nine games for them - and been on the losing side three times but that was twice to the best team in the division, Middlesboro' and to Stoke in the Capital One Cup.
In his other six games Wednesday only leaked three goals and that included clean sheets at Newcastle and QPR and at home to Birmingham.
Surely he's a better option than Fox? We also no longer have the concern about him getting injured because we can just send him back without any further financial commitment.
No chance. We treated him really poorly when he was here as a kid. No way he'd come back.
Didn't do any harm with Danny Green though. Well I mean, it did obviously, I think Danny might have had the last laugh there. He still signed for us though is what I'm saying.
If we had the money and bought this guy for £1m from Gillingham then people on here would say why are we spending that sort of money on a League 1 player.
Another club signs that player and we say on here why can't we sign players like that.

I don't agree. I think most people on here would actually be appeased by some real money being shown for a decent player with English league experience. Plus Dack has shown he can do it in League One, so if we do go down we'll have put ourselves in place to bounce back. It would be a totally sensible signing and it would show Roland is willing to spend some of his substantial wealth and is willing to accept that you need players who know the style of football they're coming in to.
Roland has half a billion quid in the bank. I don't care how much he spends on players as long as he brings in the right ones for once.
If RD lays out lets say £3m for 2/3 more players (maybe including Dack in that), yes its a lot of money, however we are only 4 points off safety and perhaps they will be able to keep us up. The cost of going down is well documented to be a loss of circa £7m at least. Hence surely it makes sense to spend £3m to save £4m, if the plan doesn't work and we go down then I guess he will be able to sell some of the players if he NEEDS to recoup his money. However with a 1/2 billion fortune we are talking about him speculating with 0.75% of his wealth!! Or put another way, if it was you and I we would be losing .75p out of £100

PENNANT SIGNS FOR SINGAPORE SIDE
Former Arsenal, Liverpool and Stoke City winger Jermaine Pennant has joined Singapore League side Tampines Rovers.
The 34-year-old has signed up for the 2016 season, with local reports in the Southeast Asian country claiming he is being paid £195,000 per month.
This site suggests S$45k basic a month, or £22k a month. Nice money by normal standards, but probably near Charlton wages

The point I was making is that it would be bad news for us if he goes to Brizzle.
He can pick a pass, has glorious technique and a real eye for goal.
I've watched quite a bit of the Gills in the last year or so.
One to watch.
We are in serious trouble yet we are still taking leaps in the dark by looking to sign players from abroad. It's madness.
He's clueless and would pretty much guarantee relegation for them.
Just need to get Iain Dowie in at Rotherham and the jobs a good 'un

and for that reason I'm out*
* that and the fact he would cost more than a packet of Wotsits
