DunRobin 465 Posted December 12, 2015 Repeating from another thread, What has changed Dak's mind and situation is somewhat unexpectedly getting contracts offered in Poland and Denmark and then Swindon!! His family have advised him to go for it! What is unexpected about him getting offers? He's not exactly an unknown quantity! Probably more to do with Ford trying to keep clubs away from him, in case he needed to make team changes later! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
outofdarkness 84 Posted December 12, 2015 Well done Rosco.What a side.As a Wolves fan i can honestly say Swindon have a very solid looking side.Like any team you need to remain relatively injury free and if that happens i can see Swindon finishing top two. Good luck Swindon fans Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
YerRopes 3,009 Posted December 12, 2015 (edited) A big welcome back to Morra and Dak There is definitely potential in the 2016 Robins side, yet I'd still have the Pirates as favourites.. Apparently Dak was chased by a number of EL clubs, so I'm pleased he decided to choose Swindon, just shows that some Poole supporters know f**k all Good post from our Kiwi correspondent elsewhere that we would be stronger with Batch.. Probably true, but he is such a bottler (esp in the wet)... Am happy with the team and we should just make the PO's..

Good luck Swindon fans Very magnanimous post darkers....Rosco certainly deserves credit for continually assembling sides that challenge for the title/playoffs. He's not tactically astute but makes up for it in his recruiting skills! North wouldn't have been my choice for the last place in the team, but that said, seems like he is a fairly popular choice with fellow Robins fans. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Gemini 4,894 Posted December 13, 2015 .....Yer Ropes......Apparently Dak was chased by a number of EL clubs, so I'm pleased he decided to choose Swindon, just shows that some Poole supporters know f**k all I like to think that he has some integrity after all and was not happy to be used by Matt Ford to bend the rules so chose to go elsewhere next season once he'd made his mind up what he was doing in 2016.

INCOGNITO 357 Posted December 13, 2015 So will Australia be using the Abbey to practice for the SWC this year !! Decent team with potential but at the moment can see them battling with Belle Vue for the runners up spot behind Poole Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
hagonshocker 1,956 Posted December 13, 2015 Hmmm, not that I have the best memory or anything but all these people defending Rosco, I take it you didn't moan about Middlo not having Brits in the Poole team when he was GB boss??

Skidder1 7,637 Posted December 13, 2015 (edited) Whereas of course he fully expected to not get any offers and instead be a full time carer for his dad. Yeah right. What you don't seem to (want to) grasp is that Dak wasn't originally too fussed about coming back to the EL or being a squad member for Rybnik in the Polish 2nd tier. However what has changed and very few expected it, is that Rybnik have gone into Poland's Extraleague as a replacement for one of the bankrupt clubs! An Extraleague contract as well as interest from 2 or 3 EL clubs (not to mention the Danish League contract!!) was enough to make him reconsider. I really don't mind if certain people choose to disbelieve what i'm saying, but that's what you get from speaking to Dak directly.
