As much as it would be good to see, I think it's not going to happen. There will be increased interest in him from clubs that will pay a higher wage. I just can't physically see this one happening.

I Hope I'm wrong like

Also worth noting that Gavin Baldwin and David Blunt were stood on the sideline in the first half. I imagine they'll put a good case forward to the money men that Green is worth the money (on that showing).

Never thought I would see Greeny back in a Rovers shirt, great to see him play again & make the game look easy, sign him up!

I can't see why greeny would choose Bolton over us right now. With us he could have a good few years of wages at the end of a good career wouldn't have to live away from home and could help us back up the leagues. Even Tyler garratt turned a contract with them down to play in a league below and he had just broken into the 1st team.
Even I wouldn't sign for Bolton. ..I like regular wages

Tell me why you would not play foe Bolton, they will go places as they have some big money men in charge now

Depends what sort of risk Paul Green wants to take. Like the majority of us, I'm sure he'll have financial commitments, a standard of living to maintain.

No doubt Bolton will have a budget that will pay Greeny more in wages than we can however, he'll no doubt weigh up the pros and cons, just as he did the first time he left us.

He'll be having a good look at us and it probably helps with having Copps here. If there is a deal to be done, I trust the club will do their best to make it happen.

You know they couldn't bring in players until Garrett was sold to us, right? They'll struggle.

Seems more likely to me that they would be looking at someone like will longbottom

Has Fergie commented on the Green situation yet? To me he seems the logical like for like replacement for (significant upgrade on) Chaplow. Get him signed up. Please!

Alan Southstand · « **Reply #39 on** July 13, 2016, 12:00:08 pm by Alan Southstand »

I wouldn't exactly deem him a like-for-like replacement for Chaplow, Jon, but the bit in brackets is spot on. Greeny can play in a 4 or a 5 - it wouldn't really make a difference to him. A definate no-brainer, for me!

I'm all for signing players based on ability rather than past associations
Reading what the guys who went to Rosso (and I appreciate it was against lower level opposition) he can do a job for us

I'd rather see McCullough start in the holding role and focus on long term rather than having Greeny there for 1 year.

Assistant Manager of Bolton (Steve Parkin) is a born and bread Worksop lad and still lives there. His Daughter is the new physio at Rosso

I cant see us breaking the bank for him, but then I said that about Rowe. Lets see if he plays in any other games 1st and if he can still handle himself. At most i'd say a 1 year deal with an option of extension based on either games or promotion.

But Green can play football now LM I wait to be convinced

The trouble is we already have Keegan, McCullough and Middleton who play the holding midfield role. Can we justify a forth? I think there is a case to say Keegan is injury prone and Middleton is still learning his trade. It will be one for a the finances I imagine, who we plan on signing in other positions and whether they are the priority.

I agree. Too many players for the same position. It's unlikely we'll need to play two holding midfielders at any point this season. I think we'll only sign Green if we lose one from LM, HM or PK

Think it's time for Keegan to go, too injury prone but imagin it would be tough to find a club to take him off our hands

Jonathan · « **Reply #48 on** July 13, 2016, 02:14:18 pm by Jonathan »

Green would surely not be a holding midfield player anyway. He may have played at the base of a diamond last night but this only shows his versatility - an asset in itself.

Green would be an excellent addition I reckon.

NickDRFC · « **Reply #49 on** July 13, 2016, 02:21:30 pm by NickDRFC »

Beat me to it Jonathan. Green isn't a holding midfielder - sure, he can fill in there, but equally he could fill in at full back or the wing. For me, if there's any chance of signing him, and he's affordable, there's absolutely no reason that we shouldn't go for it.

Copps is Magic · « **Reply #50 on** July 13, 2016, 02:26:14 pm by Copps is Magic »

He definitely is a holding / ball playing midfielder. He's evolved as a player from the first time he played for us. He won't be doing the amount running he once did.

5minstogo · « **Reply #51 on** July 13, 2016, 02:28:37 pm by 5minstogo »

Fergie said post match that if he were to sign then we'd see a different position for Greeny. Not the energetic box to box player we are used to.

Yep. I would personally love to see what a Green/Rowe central midfield looks like in a 4-4-2. One to grace a higher league that.

He'll end up the right wing back

DonnyOsmond · « **Reply #54 on** July 13, 2016, 03:06:44 pm by DonnyOsmond »

I'd like to see Rowe McCullough Green in a three.

McCullough-Rowe-green-copps in a midfield diamond would be class in league 2

I think the smile on Fergie's face during his interview probably indicates he's thinking of these possibilities also.

Potentially Blairy and Copps on the wings, full backs would be terrified.

Rowe and Greeny in the centre.
