Curtis Main

[the vicar]

DF says he is fit and back in the squad but has he ever been fit is so fit for what   

[Monkcaster_Rover]

Could be shit or bust for Curtis, this. Personally I hope he turns it around and proves us all wrong as he has shown us he has real quality, in bursts.

Come on Curtis lad make us scran our own words.

[PDX_Rover]

Will be interesting to see if he can cut it under a better man manager... I hope so.

[DRFC]

Williams couldn't buy a goal under Dickov.

Let's see if Main shows the same improvement that Williams has under DF.

[the vicar]

I hope he proves me wrong, but chickens and headless come to mind

[DRFC]

People said the same about Williams playing in a system that seemed to discourage shots on goal.

We'll see.

[Jonathan]

Absolutely. Let's give him a chance. I'm sure we'd all prefer him to succeed than fall flat (I hope so anyway). New manager, new start for him. He has more chance of stepping up to the plate with our support than with our derision.

Have a look here, after 49 seconds in...

More of this please!

[Dare to dream!]

He's clearly got ability and I think if we persevere with him he will turn out into a good player.

[murham]

Confidence fellas confidence the game is built on it

Let's give the lad a chance and hopefully he will pay us back

I wonder how Theo would've done under Ferguson...

[roverstillidie91]

Just get behind him, never heard anything so ridiculous. It is like fans are wanting him to fail.

Fresh start and all that, he could turn out to be a steal if he starts scoring. Only good to keep Tyson/Williams on their toes.

Support the club but also support the players on the pitch.

Fergie is good but I don't think he's a miracle worker...

I too thought he was shite, but he did show flashes of quality. Rare, granted, but I think there is something there. Just very, very, very, very, very, very deep down.

[IDM]

How many goals last season?

I don't want any rovers player to fail  only you you can't make a silk purse out of a pigs ear now can you

[Upton Rover]

I really do think the lad will do good with DF hes shown that he as the ability. Just seems to try to hard. Resulting him looking very average. Lets get behind him and see what he can do.

[glosterred]

I think Curtis is one that needs shipping out on loan to get some decent game time and hopefully his confidence back.

COYR

[bobjimwilly]

Should flog Main if possible; not good enough for this league.

[roverstillidie91]

Sorry.. that wasn't an opinion directed at you shall I add in reply to your comment. I get what you mean but as the emphasis is on attacking football I think he will thrive.

What really brassed me off that day was the way in which the BC players taunted the fans with their goal celebrations.
Especially that first one.
Surely refs should book players for those kind of actions.

[The Red Baron]

As the referee was the useless Stuart Attwell, it's no surprise he let them get away with it.

[drfchound]

That explains that one then.

[DearneValleyRover]

It will be interesting to see how he does now he's fit because I don't think he ever has been since he joined, Dickov wasn't one for the training ground.

The lad has quite exceptional ability, but he's clearly never been crafted into a footballer. If Ferguson could pull that one off, we'd have a gem on our hands.

[DRFC]

Indeed. He's so naturally talented it hurts to watch sometimes because he makes so many technical mistakes that should have been beaten out of him already.

If anyone will make a man of Main it'll be Fergie. The question is will Rovers fans give him time?

[Bentley Bullet]

I've been watching darts on telly today. It broke my heart thinking that I'd missed the boat by packing the game in. I think back to the half a dozen times when I hit 180 during my 25 years of playing the game.

That proves to me that I had exceptional ability, but I'd clearly not been crafted into a darts player!

You like Curtis?

[DRFC]

I've seen worse players at Rovers.

[Mike_F]

One Rovers fan will give him all the time he has left after getting his signature tattooed on him in the Summer. What a numpty! 😉
