[Drover]

Good start,welcome Robbie!

[PDX_Rover]

Gotts Got Gotten.

[Jonathan]

Seems to have had a good schooling at Leeds and done well with Barrow. Upgrade on Clifton maybe? Keen to hear opinions from those that know more about him than me.

[roversdude]

Great signing
Wonder if we will transfer list any of our current midfielders

[big fat yorkshire pudding]

Least surprising signing of the window and a good one for me.  Feels a good deal.

[Upton Rover]

I rember seeing a interview with Marcelo Bielsa
And he rated him highly, transformed him from a Right back to centre midfield, welcome

[donnyspadge]

Just been reading barrows page and all the fans on it are wishing him well and are gutted he's going...

If you scroll further down to the who should stay and go all of them are saying gotts will be gone but they wish he would stay

[DonnyBazR0ver]

The ball is rolling. Welcome Robbie. Must be one of the earliest new signings and shows with McCann there's no let up in his forward planning.

Can't say I know much about him, so intrigued to hear what he can offer.

[CheeseToastie]

Fans players and supporters club player of the year. Mate I play 6 a side with is a Leeds fan and has said he was always going to be too good for Barrows level and was always a tidy player in their youth team that was destined to make it there but just didn't hopefully he kicks on with us and shows what he's really about buzzing with this one.

[Alan Southstand]

Something wrong with your keyboard, DBR?

 

He’s meant to be a box to box type, high energy. He started out at Leeds as a right back, but Bielsa saw more in him.

[DRFCSouth]

Remember being impressed by him last season at ours. Hopefully a good signing.

[DonnyOsmond]

Haven't looked into him yet but the way he's described sounds more competition for Bailey?

[IDM]

Perhaps Bailey will play CB more often?

[Lesonthewest]

Excellent signing, welcome Robbie.

[mushRTID]

I read him as more competition for SBarra and Clifton.

[PDX_Rover]

Good signing I think. Good engine and gets stuck in.

[In the box]

Great signing

we are at least two down anyway after loans returning !!

Crew could easily stay

[drfchound]

I can’t off the top of my head think,of a player that we had for two seasons in a row (on loan).
Has it happened, it does seem to be a rarity.

Jordan Houghton?

[Alan Southstand]

With us getting promoted, it does change the normal loan ‘dynamic’, in that if loans have done well, the parent Club usually like to test them at the next level and we’ve just done that, so it’s feasible that a loan could quite easily return for another season. Hope that applies to TSL, Crew and Street!

[roversdude]

Not full seasons but Sam Johnstone

[ncRover]

I read him as more competition for SBarra and Clifton.

I’d loan Sbarra out personally

[Sven Vath]

Gotts: "spoke to Grant earlier......er, in my career"

Jordan Houghton?

Yeah, good shout that.
Anyone else?

Jonathan Forte

[CJK]

Ryan Mason?

[colincramb]

I remember him being very good against us in the 4-2 game last season and was running the midfield until they bizarrely subbed him. Changed the game in our favour. Good signing for me
