Srg Posted May 15, 2014 Share Posted May 15, 2014 Had a phenomenal season for Rotherham this year and has set 2 up (and hit the bar) and sent then to Wembley. Fair play to the lad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Srg Posted May 15, 2014 Author Share Posted May 15, 2014 Also, was a really good game tonight if anyone watched it. A good end to end play off game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RaphaRam Posted May 15, 2014 Share Posted May 15, 2014 He was brilliant. Rovrum's right back Tavernier has been excellent this season as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndyinLiverpool Posted May 15, 2014 Share Posted May 15, 2014 He was brilliant. Rovrum's right back Tavernier has been excellent this season as well. Right back you say? We're going to need one of them soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ambitious Posted May 15, 2014 Share Posted May 15, 2014 I've just looked at the reaction over Pringle on Twitter - it's staggering. Cellino was at the game tonight and there is a selection of Leeds fans begging for Cellino to go in for him. Forest fans want him to sign.. QPR fans want him to sign.. Wolves fans want him to sign.. Crystal Palace fans want him to sign.. Wednesday fans want him to sign.. Wigan fans, Brighton fans...etc They can't get enough of the guy, I used to watch him for Ilkeston and thought he was 'decent' but was surprised when we signed him, as I didn't think he was Ilkeston's best player, at the time. I thought he did okay here, not enough to warrant a new deal perhaps, yet it looks to have come back to well and truly bite us on the arse. Although, I doubt he'd get in our team at the minute, which I guess is some comfort that we didn't totally **** up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CumbrianRam Posted May 16, 2014 Share Posted May 16, 2014 Don't care really, not like we are missing him. We got a sell on clause too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Duracell Posted May 16, 2014 Share Posted May 16, 2014 yet it looks to have come back to well and truly bite us on the arse. I don't buy that at all, do you think he'd have reached his potential playing a dozen games for Derby every season? He's found a decent level to learn his trade by playing week in, week out. He'd still be the same Ben Pringle if we'd kept him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ambitious Posted May 16, 2014 Share Posted May 16, 2014 Don't care really, not like we are missing him. We got a sell on clause too. Really? You know roughly the percentage? I think he'll move this summer, for roughly £1m to £1.5m Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wouldn't argue with that, just more the fact we should have kept him (in hindsight) We could have easily loaned him for the games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe, but did we see anything to suggest we should? Sometimes with these players they just need a fresh start to flourish. He looked so out of his depth against Leicester, that I never thought we'd see him at this level again. Nice to see something's working out for him though.

Perky1106 Posted May 16, 2014 Share Posted May 16, 2014 It's just football. Some players take time to blossom. Seven years ago we had some young lad on trial called Craig Bryson and the manager at the time didn't think he was good enough to sign. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only other player that came close to him was that winger that went to Eastwood (sam duncan i believe?). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's who I thought was better - I didn't go often, but I saw Duncan tear FC United and Eastwood to shreds that season. In comparison, Pringle was a hard worker and put himself within 5-yards of the ball at all times. I said Pringle would perhaps go on higher due to his work-rate and style, but Duncan I thought was the more technically gifted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
