Link below is for me a welcome reminder that although things look gloomy in our short term future we should all remember that the long term future is better than it has ever been at the club (certainly in my lifetime anyway). Is a long video but if you skip to 58:39 Roden gives a nice summary which shows for me that we have made a genuinely important long term signing. It also makes me feel secure that the owners are hear for the long haul if appointments like this are made even while we are looking likely for the drop Massively underrated area and I am certain this guy will save us lots of points over the coming years. Also of note link has some really interesting and insightful words from Gary Speed.

What an excellent post Peter D. I haven't been able to watch the whole vid but I got the general gist of it and it's a very interesting aspect to the game. One that lots of us are probably not aware of. Damian Roden does indeed look like a good aquisition and I can only echo what you have said above.
Nice post PD. I actually went to Uni at Liverpool John Moores University myself, so it brought back a few happy but blurry memories from my student days too.
