James O'Connor

Is supposedly signing from doncaster in thenext few days. He can play anywhere in the back four including both full backs, exactly the kind of player we are looking for i guess. He got their play of the year award a few seasons back!

All that leaves now is a centre forward! Nearly there Nigel, we need that goal scorer. im guessing we wont see him until bailey and Davies go!

Thoughts?

Jimmy O'Connor is a really solid player - you have made an excellent signing. The problem for Jimmy last season was the Mckay plan. He lost his place to Chimbonda and probably unfairly. He came to Rovers as a right back (good defender) who can get forward, put in good crosses and score the occasional goal. He also developed as an excellent central defender and covered our injury crisis in that position for almost a whole season - played excellently there too. Always gives 100%. Good luck to him - I hope he does a good job for you.

Doesn't sound a bad replacement for Brayford lads

thanks crazyrover, whenever a fan praises a leaving player, you know he must have something about him.

How was Barnes? I am not antagonising, I am generally interested?

I put my credence in Crazy Rover. He knows O'Connor ove several seasons and sounds as if he knows what he is talking about.

"Jimmy O'Connor is a really solid player - you have made an excellent signing" is what he says. That'll do for me on this topic until we see him at PP.

I am with Ramdini on this one, while he is no over-weight, Welshmen or a premiership player with a "wealth of premiership experience" under his belt, he is now a ram and deserves our support accordingly.
