There will be other sales. It's a football club. For the moment can't we just enjoy the moment of signing a player that universally seems to be seen as a very good addition.
Enjoy the moment lol. Ok then I cant wait to see Pearce and Tex play alongside each other what a partnership that will be in league 1.
Sounds like a decent singing although don't remember having ever seen him personally. 4 CB's of Pearce, Lennon, Bauer and Tex with Konsa and Thomas in the wings is very good and would be in The Championship. Given the ownerss stated aim to be a Championship club with PL aspirations I will welcome the news of RoJo's departure next.
From what I have seen in our PSF's, (Welling, Bromley, Orient, Ispwich, RKC Waalwijk) Slade has used RoJo as the voice on the pitch. I know he swears a lot, but he is the most experienced defender we have had in pre season and I think Slade wants to use him quite a bit.
didn't sound like that from Slade's interview, said Rojo had played a lot of minutes and trained well but sounded to me like he'd played because there were no other options. Once Paddy is fit or even Lennon Rojo won't get a look in in my opinion
I agree with this. He will drop out when Bauer or Lenton are back or if Konsa cements his spot... but he will still have a role to play, from the bench or as cover. Useful to have an experienced CB to step in if you have a crisis.
We probably have a better back five (and cover) than many Champ sides. Can afford one or two to go. When fit plenty holding MF. Decent strikeforce but further we get forward, thinner we get.
I think it's a very good signing. Experienced and a former captain. I'm also pleased because the jury is still out for me on Bauer. I don't think we've seen enough of him to assume he's the right guy at the back. He looked okay at times last season, but, he did make a few mistakes and we were comparing him to other signings who were shit.
I imagine Tex will leave now
Agree with this Bauer has loads if potential but still youngish and plenty to learn. Johnson can teach him the Queens English and Pearce can groom him into a decent CB. Good signing, welcome to the circus Jason and good luck.

If only I could say the same about myself at a buffet.

By looking at some of Bauer's Twitter posts, I suspect that he would be giving ROJO the English lessons, and not the other way round.

By all accounts, he had a good bonus from getting promotion, so quite possibly we paid him a decent signing on fee to make up his loss in salary.
Few more needed but Rudd and Pearce are the right type of players.
