What a bad couple of days to be pool fan.
The dross at Burton then seeing this.
Rhodes has been one of the few highlights of this poor campaign.
Unless we buy him or replace with a player of similar stature it's league one again next season.

Given we're going nowhere and things don't look as rosy as they were doing, I'd be surprised if he didn't want to go back more and more.

Bad timing again with the poor result yesterday and if that's repeated in the next game it puts a proper downer on the club just in time for the window.

Promotion then is massively unlikely so he's probably less inclined to stay, as let's face it he wants to score goals but goals that mean something and a playoff push is a real buzz.

With or without we will still be in league one next year don't fool yourself that we might go up because was AIN'T simple

Promotion ain’t gonna happen for quite some time. Unless Sadler 1. Gets rid of Critchley, and/or stops shopping in free/ released players and invests in some decent signings or 2. Tries to find a partner willing to invest or sells up. I think he bought the club genuinely with the best intentions, I also think he is now finding the true cost too rich for his blood.
 
Another factor in the Rhodes situation is that he needs just 6 goals to become the all-time leading scorer in the Championship. Defeats like yesterday may persuade him that the best chance of achieving this would be to return to Huddersfield for the rest of the season.

Utter bollocks… virtually every club at this level recruits free agents hardly anyone pays fees for players in L1 and we’ve paid fees for Norburn, Joseph etc… do people ever think or do some basic research before posting their shit ???

Norburn was undisclosed, so you don’t know, nor do I, whether a fee was paid or not. Joseph came in a part ex for Yates so we didn’t actually part with any money for him. Morgan was a released free agent, as were Oakley-Booth and Kouassi. Dale was already our player. So no, it’s not utter bollocks at all. Just a truth that you don’t want to hear.

Possibly we’ve already sounded them out about buying him in January, what better way to push his value up than claim they want him back
 
If he does go back….and I would be surprised if they don’t want him back if only to save some face on why he was loaned out in the first place….he will have single handedly kept us in this division. Thank you JR!
