Cos they didn't fancy him in premiership, obiously.

You'll not find a Watford fan who doesn't rate him in the championship. Seen nothing but praise for him.
So in this case he has lost quality with age then?

Yes I don't doubt Doyley's a decent player, but those Watford fans have watched him through his prime years there, he's made 400 odd appearances there he's bound to go down as a bit of a cult hero.

My point was that you saying Doyley wouldn't go to Gillingham because it's 'not his level' may be false, because as I said he's aged now and it's yet to be seen as to whether he can still cut it in this division.

A 20 year old full back who's performances have earned him a call up to train with the senior England side a few months ago, or a 33 year old Lloyd Doyley who has played 6 games in the last 18 months?

Hmm, tough one that.

A 18 year old bowl cut, cheeky nandos lover who has a few wkd's cos Jamie Vardy does and calls it a sick night and who supports a football club most real football fans doesn't recognise, could never make me cry.
Don't have a bowl cut, I'm 20. Only been Nandos twice with work, don't get the hype. I also don't drink alcohol or do "nights out" good try trying to suss me out though.

Wouldn't bother arguing with him mate. You're talking to a guy who gets pissed from half a pint of Carling and plasters the pictures of the said half pint glass all over social media.

I always thought WKD was a cleaning product.

You're arguing for sake of arguing, he's made 400+ appearances at his level and higher, of course this is his level.

Well he played 8 times last season for a start...

Lee Hendire once played for England.... Training and playing with England means fuck all, in terms of ability.

Take a look at my twitter and find last picture of a pint...

I wish it took half a pint to get pissed but unlike the Royal Leamington Spa massive it doesn't...

Was his level, to rubbish him dropping down the leagues with age is stupid. Like I said, yet to be seen if this is still his level.

If not, you can sign him in preparation for L1 next season :D

Warnock won't take us down, our revolution starts today, with Best, Kelly and Frecklington coming back in the next week you'll regret that comment.

He's never played as low as league one and never will, it's beneath him.

I jest. I'm not sure whether you'll go down, but I don't think you'll get anything today.

It's called not wanting to upset the apple cart.
It's called having to remain fiercely loyal to someone you celebrated joining your club like the second coming, despite them making some truly awful signings within the first couple of weeks.

The signings are shit, Warnock is shit, Rotherham are shit. Enjoy being back in League One.

Best Kelly and Frecklington? All 3 of those players wouldn't make the bench of the majority of the teams in this league.

Paddy Kenny's banter, like grinning and showing opposition fans his belly as he picks the ball out of his net for the fifth time. Great guy Pads, top banter.

Pretty sure Best occupied Derby and Blackburn's benches in recent times and Kelly played regularly for Reading last season (and turned a new deal down) so I haven't got a fucking clue what you're on about.

What the fuck are you on about? If you mean Warnock he's been here a week and had one game a draw against Birmingham.

You also said he would keep you up and be your bloody messiah. And because you said that you feel like you need to defend and support his every action.

Yeah he is for exactly the reasons i gave, morale booster and will help get Warnock's ways and views implemented quickly.
Which players are going to get a morale boost from Warnock signing his mate who is past it? They might feel a bit more confident if he signed someone who's going to improve the team.
