Wakefield - unused sub on saturdayBall - played 77 minutesMcCormick -played 58 minutes
Isn't that a bit hypocritical when we get agents saying the same thing to us and we say no we cannot accept that?

Aren't they still training with us and just going to the other clubs for matches? I thought I'd read that was the case.
WellRed ... then perfect way of developing them .YEARS ago when I was a kid playing at Rovers the Juniors trained twice a week , Tuesday and Thursday at Bellevue and a game for the Northern Intermediates or A team if they could find your address to 'call you up' for the Saturday game . I still have some of the invitations that I will give the club to put in the Belle Vue bar if they are interested ... Seasons 1958- 1961. Jack Crayston Manager ' ex Arsenal and England centre half. Good OLD OLD days but which are my inseparable links with Rovers even after 40 years abroad. My team mates included Ray Veall , Rovers and Everton , Barry Swallow ( Ernie's lad ) whose Dad played for our all conquering 1946 team at right half . Barry went on to captain the first team at Rovers then York City where he eventually became a Director . His Dad became publican of the great pub in Edenthorpe ... can't remember the name but was and still is on the main road from Donny to Thorne.? The first team in those days was ... Gregg , Makepeace, Graham, Teasedale, Patterson, Brown, Mooney, Tindill, Mc Morran , Jeffrey, Walker . I can still picture them now in the 25,000 packed Belle Vue taking on Liverpool , West Ham, tra la la la . We'll soon be back up there .
it still is pal plenty of rovers fans specially in the bar
