    If he's still in contract with Ruvveram then it's a loan, possibly with a view to a permanent later.

    Rotherham already have a song for him. Watch from 5:50

    It’s not the musicians it’s the conductor.

    Adding another player (however much needed), is masking the real problem that is Collins. He hasn’t got a clue so no doubt any new player will be lost in a cobweb of Collins formations.

    Any chance we'll find out today whether the deal has gone through or not?

    Correct. We’ve got two players in Miller and Doyle who know where the net is.
    Unfortunately neither them, nor Ball, are likely to get opportunities in a team playing as shambolically as we are now.
    We don’t create chances, so other than giving us another option up top, I can’t see how this signing will enhance our team.

    Ball is a very good player. Not sure he's exactly what we need though (ignoring the fact every team needs good players)

    Aye but Rotherham make us under PP look like Brazil. Players suit teams and styles. Don't dismiss him because he's not playing

    Scannell, Payne, McGowan, O'Connor etc, etc are all good players Damo.

    Problem is we have a coach/es who have succeeded only in making them look like me on a football pitch on a Sunday morning after 10 pints the night before.

    Ball must have decided to retire from professional football if he's prepared to work under this lot.

    Good signing I think and he’s good on the ball too. What we need if we are to play on the deck and not a direct target man.

    Too little far too late. Collins will end up playing him at left back.
