So let me get this right. We should definitely keep Rosenior and go back to 4-4-2. So if we do then our first choice CB pairing is Dawson and Chester.b. We also have Harry Maguire who we all agree needs to be given a chance in the Championship. Right?

We then also have Curtis Davies who if he gets his head right is far and away better than Mcshane.

So we wouldnt keep, and Mcshane wouldnt want, to be 4th choice.

We also have Lenihan coming through at RB.

We cant keep them both.

You have not mentioned Bruce jnr, where does he fit into the scheme of things.

It's too early to say that. You don't know who's going to replace him. Wait til end of August and then complain.

Reminds me of when we got rid of Cairney and Evans, that wasn't a good decision at the time but it turned out to be a very good one as Hudd and Jake had great first seasons with us

They weren't very good decisions? I think it shows why we are not football managers. Evans has spent a load of time on the bench at a mid table Championship team and well Cairney has started for them. Everyone banged on about Fryatt. The guy that spent the majority of his season on the bench at Forest. Rose tinted glasses. People complaining is beyond me. Thanks for the effort Rosie.

Selling the pair wasn't a popular decision at the time amongst supporters, it turned out fine and I'm sure this will too. Lenihan seems like a great prospect and he'll be an awful lot cheaper than Rosenior. I know he's the perfect professional but for the last 3 years he's only really been a bit part player
 
Bruce did say he wanted a younger squad in the Championship - he'll probably use that as the reason.

It's an absolute joke decision though.

Rosie is the type we do need to keep at the club without a doubt.

Burnsy saying that Rosie turned an offer down. Hhhhmmmmm


I wud like us to try and shift McGregor and Davies to start with.

Evans has played 41 times for Blackburn this season, barely any of them from the bench.

Cairney has played 45 times for Blackburn this season, he's pretty much the first name on the team sheet.

Fryatt has played 26 games for Forest this season, scoring six times, we'd have been better off if he hadn't left.

It looks like Rosie put more effort into his football, than you do into your research.

This board implodes every time the wind changes.

Maybe some haven't noticed, but we just got relegated and there's going to be a lot of changes - some popular and some unpopular.

You get rid of the ones who played the biggest part in our relegation first.

McGregor Davies Hernandez. Jelevic and N.Doye can go as well Imo.
 
Really disappointed. If this has come from the club, shame on them. if it's come from him because he is fed up not being given a chance, well still shame on them. I genuinely believe our win ratio with Liam in the team over the last 2 seasons is probably higher than for virtually anyone else in the squad. Because on the whole , if he played, we were playing 4-4-2 and when we played 4-4-2 with a proper right back, we generally did ok.

Above all, a top bloke. my son was mascot for the game at Millwall when we got promoted. All the players had been great to him but when they were doing the pre match kick around I was worried that nobody would have time for him. Within about thirty seconds, Liam was over doing keepy -uppies with him.

Hope he might be back as a coach some time, and hope he gets a good deal with a good club.

We needed Fryatt last season and Cairney.
Did you not notice we scored **** all last season and our midfield was ****.

Bruce has made many ****ing dreadful decisions as manager but I'd say this is probably his worst yet. Rosie will not be on big wages and Bruce's ridiculous obsession with 3-5-2 combined with his love for Elmo means that we now have extremely limited options on the right. If Elmo gets injured who will play RB? Who are we going to get that will be as good or better than Rosie for free? He is a fantastic professional and a very good defender, especially at Championship level. I was hoping that he'd finish his career here and stay on as a coach, maybe even becoming manager at some point, but obviously now that looks very unlikely. I'm pissed off that my favourite player is leaving the club, and if Quinn/Macca aren't offered contracts as well I'll be furious with Bruce.

Yep, I was hoping that relegation might see an end to the obsession with Elmo and 3-5-2, but this is not an encouraging start.
 
Probably the right move to let him go.

Sure he's a good footballer that would have suited the Championship perfectly, can play on both sides, is passionate about the club, wants a training role with us later, his gran is from Hull, we have a great song about him, his wages won't be too high, is a model professional, will encourage the younger player and proabably die for the cause, but.. oh err then.. err
Yeah daft move eh?
