    Its a shame Ronnie The Rocket and Spongefoot Church paths never crossed.
    They would have made a formidable partnership.

    I said when his signing was announced that if Roland had bought him we would be going mad as it was a ‘network’ signing - he was bought purely due to his nationality 


    Was it a Thomas or Martin Sandgaard signing ?
    Well it certainly wasn't a Bowyer or Gallen signing.  

    I suspect it was Thomas getting done over by an agent.  Danish top flight is one of the few potential sources of foreign players in League 1/lower Championship so you could argue it was a route worth investing in.

    Imagine how much Martin could’ve improved Spongefoot through some expert one2one coaching and a special fitness/kicking regime

    I was told this is the one time THomas pulled tank on a signing.  He insisted we sign Ronnie

    Did he inherit that title from Francis Jeffers?
    But presumably we didn't pay 2 and a half million for him.

    His fox nickname was clearly not for poaching goals. I always assumed it was because he was in the habit of knocking over dustbins and fornicating loudly in the street.
    Aren't we all?

    In a parallel universe there was no covid he settles in London with his wife and scores a few goals in and around the box. 

    As it was he never got up to speed, and he realised it was a mistake early doors and it could only have one outcome. Your in a foreign country, your hardly getting game time and you can't get out and about.

    The feed back was he didn't even train that much with the 1st team after a while as he was so off the pace and had niggles.
    Unfortunate.

    I recall him missing that injury time penalty against Oxford and them edging us out of the play offs ultimately because of it. How things could have been so different!

    1 in 16 for us. He's managed 1 in 18 at his current club....confirming he was never the real deal to me and a one club wonder.

    We also missed a penalty when we lost 1-0 against Peterborough, so wasnt the only factor either

    Has announced his retirement, at 35, today after failing to find a club. 


    Just says thank you to all the clubs and teammates he’s had.

    Another failed signing that cost us buckets of dough.
