Players back then could play football no matter what age even into their 40s but players these days after 30 they fall apart on the pitch they don't put in the work but the kind of players back then could run circles around our team today

My cut off would be 28 or 29 if they are good to fit in our team 

Can we stop buying or bring in old people age 30-35 please

With the greatest of respect, to compare the game from the 70s to the modern game to draw anything approaching a conclusion is not very good reasoning.

Could we get rid of Fozzy because he too old and I feel like he going to cost us games 

So is Max Lowe 😉

Baptiste, Adams and Osborn in midfield would be solid! 

Why do people only focus on what players can’t do? 
look at what they can do. You build a team to emphasise strengths. 

Leanardo Da Silva Lopes (25) Portuguese player for Cercle Brugge in Belgium. Out of contract this summer and plays left back or central midfield. They also play high pressing football so would suit us and has played in England before with Hull, gillingham, Wigan and Peterborough. Has played 33 league games this year with 30 starts getting 3 assists and 2 goals.

To Spondon, everyone!

Perhaps Whittaker would like to come home too
 

I’ve found it difficult to find good potential loans and frees to recruit for our striking department. Not sure how much we have to spend but can imagine a large % of it will be used on our strike force. I’ve found 4 options which I think would suit our style of play, 2 from Scotland and 2 from Europe. All in a good age bracket and with a range of positives and qualities. 

Moussa Sylla (24) at Pau on loan in Ligue 2 from Caen another Ligue 2 side. Plays up front or on the wing and got 16 goals and 7 assists in 37 games. As Caen failed to be promoted from Ligue 2 and Sylla has one year left on his contract I think he could be available on a cheap deal. Fast and creative with good pressing stats. Perfect for a front two or on either wing in a three. 
 
Thelonius (Theo) Bair (24) Suggested him before and still think he suits us perfectly. A 6 foot 4 mobile striker with an eye for goal and good hold up play. 15 goals and 6 assists in his 41 games this season in Scotland. Only a year left on his contract also. Also has 2 Canadian caps with 1 goal. Took him a while to settle in Scotland but once he played to his strengths he’s been unbelievable. 
 
Zan Celar (25) Slovenian international, 6 foot 2 and loves goals. Playing for Lugano he has 51 goals in his 114 games there, with 21 of them coming in 46 games along with 4 assists. He is another with only a year left on his contract. The Swiss league does have some quality and I can’t see how he wouldn’t score goals for us. No idea what fee he would require, he is definitely the most unknown out of the 4 I’ve looked into. 
 
Bojan Miovski (24) Left footed Macedonian who impresses me whenever I see him. Would imagine he’d cost slightly less than Lewis Ferguson who Aberdeen sold to (champions league qualifying) Bologna last season for roughly 1.65 million pounds. He is probably the most expensive option on the list but he would definitely be worth it. He has 26 goals and 4 assists in his 53 Aberdeen games this season with 4 of them being in Europe. That is following last seasons tally of 18 goals and 3 assists in 42 games. He can score with both feet and good in the air standing at 6 foot 3. 

How much have we got to spend? 

I think a lack of sufficient finance will prove to be a major restriction. 

What does it matter? Provided they come in and do a job for the Rams who cares where they’ve played previously.

This stupid narrative has been pedalled by lazy links which next to none of have ever came close to being true. We get linked to Rotherham/ex rotherham players all the time, and then for some reason it annoys some fans who then just think Warne only signs players who’s phone number he has already. 

Ben Hamer has just been released from Watford and I think he’s worth a shout….only joking I’d rather have Rammie in net. 
 
Anyway, Daniel Iversen is an upgrade on Joe Wildsmith and arguably the best keeper out there in terms of who we can afford. Very good reflexes, his kicking is not the best but he’d definitely be one of the best keepers in the league. 

Did they do the same to Clough when we was signing Burton and anyone affiliated with Burton or non league? Sounds a good keeper on a loan or free to me!

I have my suspicions on this point, the fact some people on here, and elsewhere online, will push this “we only sign players from Rotherham or South Yorkshire” angle when the evidence shows otherwise. However I was hoping to hear a more expanded rationale to maybe help me understand it a bit more, perhaps I’ve misunderstood the facts.
The way I see it is we’re linked with a Goalkeeper who has plenty of Championship experience and a handful of premier league appearances to his name also, a player who is a good age at 26, who is probably based locally so won’t have massive upheaval domestically if he joins us, and may settle sooner thanks to a pre-existing relationship with the coaching staff. 

I see Rooney as a useful squad player who can cover RB or CB, but I think that his strongest position will be DCM and I would like to see him given a chance there. He would be like a new signing after not playing for so long and could save us a few bob in strengthening that part of the team.

I think we are the new Rotherham FC team 😂 that this point

This the player's we be getting now right now the team we should be playing
