A bit disappointed that it's not an out and out striker we're getting but as usual I will give the lad a chance and reserve judgement.

Is it definitely this one? http://www.soccerbase.com/players_detai ... erid=49098

Oh.

". He only made one appearance for the club before asking to return to Queens Park Rangers[6]" Bless!!!

or... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Danny_Rose .. but he is also a winger and is on loan at brizzle city

EDIT: cant be him .. season long loan deal with bristol city.

Oh.

It appears so - my brother is at the game and Romone Rose is the name he gave to me.

Like others have said, it appears he is a winger/striker - which is not exactly what we were expecting maybe - but he may be seen as an alternative to Danny Stevens in the side? Personally, I haven't given up yet on Billy Kee coming good and think he should be given an extended run.

Positives - He has the height (compared to me and Danny, he is a giant). He may be keen to shake off his dodgy looking cv. His name is to die for...

Negatives - Midfielder. Cv. And his current club :evil:

Still 0-0.

We have a rather odd defensive line up of Carlisle and Halpin as full backs and Palmer and LRT as centre backs. Argyle have come closest so far after a mistake by LRT left their striker through on a 1 on 1 - good block by Potter.

Apparently Oastler is looking good in midfield - as for Rose he appears to be hard working (playing off Gritton) but not showing much at the moment.

United: Potter; Carlisle, Palmer, Rowe-Turner, Halpin, Oastler, Wroe, Yeoman, Rose Gritton, Macklin

Who are the fullbacks in that team then??? (take it Palmer and Rowe-Turner are Centre Backs).

See above ... Carlisle and young Halpin are "filling in".

No, no, no, no, nooooooooo. Am hoping it's just to give him 90 minutes run out...

And thank you CP. And your bro too, naturally.

No Senda? And Oastlers put us 1-0 up.

Winning 1-0 at half time.

We scored from a Wroe corner - bro thinks it was probably an OG though.

We are looking the better team apparently, having created the better chances. Oastler is bossing the midfield and Rose is looking good too. He is playing as a atriker, not as a winger, and looks pretty mobile, hard working and aggressive - he hit the post with a snapshot and almost put Gritts in for another.
