He wasn't partically being considered until this bit of late form, wether olly wants a fee I don't know, rovers were trying to negotiate with milwall paying a percentage of his wage rovers are trying to meet the difference. i think the fact jermaine wants to move this way may sway it. Olly eh? I'd completely forgotten that he was at Millwall. Do you think that he's likely to be a benevolent Tony Pulis-type figure and likely to cut us a deal. Or is he still ploughing his own furrow? I suppose that time will tell, but that does change the whole perspective for me. Ollie thinks only of Ollie and will do us no favours - this potential deal will die

But I agree that he won't feel the need to go out of his way to assist BRFC.

I would entirely agree with that statement, baldersgas. I think that he's still licking his wounds, and will continue to do so for some time to come. But equally fanatical has also raised an extremely valid point, and anyone who knows their history of BRFC will recognise what it is that I'm talking about.

Now could this be some smoke and mirrors - seems rather strange if so; Della-Verde, Cunnington and Martin were signed with little/nothing in the press/rumour control?

That may well be the case 1986gas, who knows eh? Most certainly we all have differing views on virtually everything under the sun, so why should this be any different. But I suppose that it all comes down to an individuals own perspective of events, based on his personal knowledge of occurrences and history. That's why he is regarded as a hero to some, but not all. Television interviews have a lot to answer for.

Most certainly we all have differing views on virtually everything under the sun, so why should this be any different. But I suppose that it all comes down to an individuals own perspective of events, based on his personal knowledge of occurrences and history. That's why he is regarded as a hero to some, but not all. Television interviews have a lot to answer for. I hear what you are saying Brizzle, not everything is always as it seems and crystal clear, aside from individual opinions on Ollie though, one thing that can't really be disregarded is he wanted those around him to be as ambitious as he was back then, but he didn't seem to realise that those around him didn't have the financial resources or desire to attempt to take Rovers to a new level, for me that was when he fell out of love for Rovers. The worst interview of all and I remember it like it was yesterday, when he said, and I quote as near as damn to his words back then '' If the fans think they want promotion badly then believe me the players want it 10 times more'' personally I took that as the most insulting thing any manager has said about Rovers fans (and that includes Buckles lower expectation as I believe he had a point, and still does), I wrote to Ollie saying where do you think the likes of Roberts Cureton etc will be in 12 months and where will the fans be ? Within about 6 months our free scoring strike force were gone, not in a dignified way if you recall as both strikers were unprofessional in terms of application when particularly Uncle Cyril couldn't get JR off to WBA as soon as he would have liked at a price they wanted. So yes as you rightly point out interview are not always a true reflection of the person, except for Mr Higgs, his words and actions, or lack of match perfectly!

Football fans are weirdo's
Alan Gow was said by many to be the messiah (60 odd goals in over 300 games)
Jermaine Easter's record isnt good goals wise but scored more in about the same number of games all at a higher level than Gow
It's a strange game football

I don't get all this we might be signing Easter hype. If there are teams in league 1 and 2 showing an interest why drop out of the FL to come to us? I don't buy the wanting to be closer to home explanation as there are alternatives to Bristol.
If I'm wrong I'll eat my own pants.
