We all saw that bit of marketing coming from a mile off but funny nevertheless.
Welcome George, I’m sure his immense experience will be invaluable to the likes of Connolly, Hoole, Gordon etc.

According to my son who is a Sports Scientist and was with George at Birmingham he is an extremely fit bloke and a nice bloke with it.

If he doesn’t get many games, it’ll likely mean we'd gotten the Beefy from his first season back, with a dominant Wilson, so if Friend struggles to get games it may be for a good reason, with a solid backup waiting to go if needed! If we somehow got Connor Taylor back too I’d feel like we’d have a rock solid unit even when injuries crop up

Had no idea he is Jamie Cureton's son.
"Friend is also pictured with his dad and former Rovers' legend Jamie Cureton at The Memorial Stadium in 1998."

Fairplay to the admin with the tweet was surprised they didn't go with the friends theme tune

Oh you miserable git! I agree. Better than the 6 last season. Perhaps he's had a season or two or off so he's had a nice rest for this season's play off push. Not sure whether JB see him as a starter or just back up when we need a bit of experience on the pitch. Perhaps this season we won't throw away so many points in the last few minutes of a game.

Can see him being used in the Whelan role. Might start some of the tougher games where we need some organisation and defensive mindset from the start. But mostly used from the bench if we are holding on or starting to lose control of a game towards the end.
