They absolutely reek of a tinpot club who think they're massive because they play in England. Suspect they'll get told to f**k off again and we'll get a delightful "didn't want him anyway" breakdown from their manager. I haven't got much against Rotherham as a club, but you do have to wonder if it's a good move for Rooney. Yes he'll maybe earn a bit more a week, but they are the ultimate yo-yo club who can't compete in the Championship. At best he does enough to get noticed and gets a move to a more established Championship side, at worst he's plugged into a system that won't allow him to stand out, he'll end up out of favour when things don't go to plan and they just decide to throw money at the next signing and he'll end up back up here with Dundee United or moneybags St Mirren trying to rebuild his career. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mizfit Posted July 14, 2021 Share Posted July 14, 2021 If Rotherham were going to step up and perform at the championship they’d have done it by now, but they keep fucking it up when promoted. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They applied for 1201 fans and were granted 1201 fans, the rest was made up of staff, players, stewards etc. Barring any disasters from last night (don't think that there was any) head of operations was saying that Hopefully 2400 for Fleetwood game will be applied for and granted ( guessing that's the total of season ticket holders). Saints said 1000 season ticket holders would gain entry via a ballot so where did the other 201 come from along with the 399 hangers on to make your 1600.

Widge Posted July 14, 2021 Share Posted July 14, 2021 As far as I’m aware the defender Rotherham have bid again for is Mark Beevers, I don’t think they’ll be back in for Rooney. Suspect the joke of an offer and the assumption we are an amateur outfit persuaded them not to bother us again. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A bit harsh calling our double cup winning heroes "hangers on". 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I take it that a good many of the "Hangers on " will be corporate sponsors who pump thousands into the club every year 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lang Toon Saintee Posted July 14, 2021 Share Posted July 14, 2021 (edited) Callum was being interviewed at length by Sky Sports about last season and his plans for this season...One of the production guys said that it is due to be shown on Sky Sports News next Tuesday.

We look like we passed the ball around very nicely Edit: here's the link https://www.pnefc.net/ifollow/latest-videos/ The whole game is up now for free. Quite a good watch for a friendly. Agree with others that we look good. Fitness and hunger were there. No passengers and a few real stand-outs; Booth, Rooney, Kerr, Gordon, MOH, May, McCann all impressed. Muzz did OK but looked slow to me. Of the subs, thought Devine looked particularly good. A bit surprised not to see Kane in the squad, The PNE commentators were, I thought, very balanced, knew our players and had clearly done their research. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RandomGuy. Posted July 15, 2021 Share Posted July 15, 2021 Confirmation Saints took £2.6m from the Government in terms of the loan. https://www.gov.scot/publications/foi-202100215652/ Absolute no brainer to do so, IMO. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tree house tam Posted July 16, 2021 Share Posted July 16, 2021 I trust the club to know which level to put the youngsters in, after all they've been doing it for years. Non league with Broomhill used to be the starting point for loans then onto lower SPFL, that's a process I'm totally fine with. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RandomGuy. Posted July 16, 2021 Share Posted July 16, 2021 I'd guess that sometimes it's more about who's at the club, in terms of players and coaches, and how the club intend to use the player, that matter when loaning youngsters out, rather than purely being as high a level as possible. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
