Fantastic news, been impressed by him this season, I think Alfie will go far in the game and become a valuable asset for us in the future so it's very positive that Rovers have managed to extend his deal. It means the club will avoid a Lockyer scenario when he does eventually leave us to go onto bigger things and that hopefully we will see him in the quarters for a few more seasons to come. It's one piece of good news after another at the club at the moment. Looking forward to the new season. Just a little balance, at the end of Alfie's contract, he will be just 6 months older than Tom was at the end of his contract. However, we are in the driving seat for now. Yeah that's what I meant, for the next couple of years. I think there will be interest for him next summer if he has another good year which is why hopefully this avoids a Lockyer scenario as he would of been out of contract then.

Well done all concerned. I would think and hope he will be a mainstay of the defence for the next few years. UTG!

I think this could the first time in my lifetime we’ve secured one of our brightest prospects/players on a long term deal and will one day be sold on for a considerable profit.
But in the meantime, brilliant that we’ve kept him.

Great news. Massive player for us. You've seen the Instagram posts of him working out in the gym then! Fantastic news, definitely a future captain at some point.

Fantastic news. Now hopefully we can do the same with JCH, although I expect he will be the hardest to tie down to a long term deal.

Yes but why would he want to leave a Championship club about to start playing games in the best football stadium in Bristol..........

I would have released him. Erratic at best.
Only joking. Great news!

Great news! This guy has the potential to play at a much higher level. Let's hope it's with Rovers.

Best news yet, alongside Jaakola. Could not have afforded another Lockyer situation so this is excellent!

Are you horfield in disguise.... horfield doesn't joke. Could you go the city forum and constantly big up a top coach that is crying out for a chance at managing a league club? I mean it worked for us with garner so maybe you could f**k city up in the same way?

Great news. Does this dispell the notion that BG lost the dressing room with this latest cobtract extension

He's looked great under GC and PT but shocking under BG. What's the common denominator?
