http://www.bristolrovers.co.uk/news/article/new-deal-for-matt-777800.aspx I'm pleased. Signs that things are moving ready for next season. Harrold may not be everyone's first choice, but he's definitely worth having in the squad, given that we already have Brunt and Richards. A one year contract is ideal. If he looks good we can offer an extension; if not then we're not tied to him. Smith, Harrold...right...who's next?
Knew John Ward would like Harrold. He is his type of player. I reckon we have a season of long ball in front of us, but as long as it gets us places, I couldn't care less
good news. 1 year is good to see how he is after a bad injury and its a chance for him to prove himself. pleased for him as reading twitter, he loves the club, loves the fans and he loves the banter with the players. personally i think ward will see him like a john/gareth taylor type of player so he needs a pacy player to join him and brunt. also harrold said on twitter yesterday.... that be good news. thought he be out for the last games as well.
Incase there was some who cant open that link provided p49, here is a few bits that may interest.... please log in to view this image Harrold has today signed a new one year contract with the club, with an option for a further year. Higgs said... Ward said... Harrold said...
This is great news we still need Matty and he still has a lot to offer us I have a feeling his best is yet to come.
Whenever i've seen him play for your lot he's looked a decent player, slightly bemused that after he scored 18 for you last year some gasheads I know didn't want him to sign on for another year.
with him in the team it encourages route 1 football. some fans didnt like that style. i dont like that style. but it gets goals as you mentioned. hopefully ward can use him effectively without as much route 1.
