Title: Lots of signings
Post by: Barmby Rover on January 01, 2026, 11:46:12 am
Hundreds of them on 14 pages on the BBC site, but no Rovers yet. Wonder why?

Im sure we could also sign 100s, but we need the right one. We can both agree this would be a better choice.

Because we haven't signed anyone yet....?

In January signing players …It’s a bit like a very good quality selection of chocolates , you offer them around to be polite and you’re left with what nobody can stand !!

If they can’t play today, no point letting Luton know who we’ve signed before our game.

I'm only seeing 3, all of whom were unattached.

Including Taylor Richards, formerly of this parish, who’s signed for Crawley.

What a complete waste of talent Taylor Richard’s is. Always remember Andy Butler saying he can be whatever he wants to be but he needs to work harder. His ability is better than Crawley but obviously doesn’t have a great attitude.

Freddie Ladapo to Chesterfield on a free is an interesting one. He's had some decent spells at L1 level before.

Interesting fact about Taylor Richards; his last professional goal was for us vs Rochdale in 2021, he hasn't scored since.

How odd - so much ability in his time with us, made league one look like Sunday league at times.
He wasn’t much of a team player though.

Also, his 41 appearances for us is more than he's made for any other individual club.

Ladapo has been training with them for last few weeks.
