LB from Norwich, 23. Will be a free agent when his contract runs out, good player tbf, shrewd bit of business
Can’t say I remember him but to be fair we probably never attacked him during their visit to Stoke.
A young attacking left back is just what we need though so what’s not to like ? Sam McCallum first choice with Steven’s as a back up… sounds like that’s our LB vacancy filled nicely. Add the new keeper and that’s two boxes ticked
Well, that’s a huge signing in my opinion. You only have to see the comments left on stokes Twitter to see how much Rotherham fans loved him.
Like I’ve said my only concern is he let in 89 goals and got relegated which doesn’t do nothing for me , I can’t get excited over these kind of signings I’m afraid
But very few of those 89 were down to him. Goals conceded would have been well over 100 if it wasn’t for him.
Read a fans message board to get a good idea of how a player performs on a weekly basis. Rotherham fans are gutted he’s leaving. Read our message boards and everybody wants Bonham replacing and the jury is still out for most on Iverson.
We are getting a good solid Championship keeper in my book. We saw some decent keepers play against us this past season. Some of them we barely tested but Ruddy and this Rotherham keeper really stood out among the ones we did. Add a CB or two now and we are looking a lot steadier at the back.
I understand that logic, very honest.
From what I’ve watched of him he’s an exceptional shot stopper and a brilliant goalkeeper in the worst defence in the league. He’s won player of the season two years on the trot and you only win that in a horrific defence if you’re keeping more out than you’re letting in. It actually speaks volumes that he’s swept up those club awards whilst conceding 89 in a season (baring in mind we are talking about bottom of the table and a team which was relegated early on).
Understand why you may not get excited though, time will tell. I think we will know within the first ten games what kind of keeper we have signed, my assumption and hope is we have one of the best at this level.
If you can remember, the season before last Rotherham beat us at home 1-0. We absolutely battered them and couldn’t get the ball past their keeper who had a blinder…Johansson was that keeper.
Sam McCallum is a done deal apparently. Had agreed to sign a new deal at Norwich but it’s fallen through once the manager was sacked. We’d shown interest before so our deal was resurrected and it all went well from there
Seen they’ve just said goodbye to him on Twitter… he’s definitely going somewhere else. Lots of rumours with us but I’m sure he will have a fair few suiters. I haven’t seen much of him but going from Norwich fans it sounds like another steal on a freeSam McCallum is a done deal apparently.

Sounds like McCallum upped his demands and we’ve walked away from it. Well done Stoke for not being held to ransom
Good move for Edwards.
