Market10 May 2032

Ciaran McGuckin hands in a written request

“I have nothing bad to say about this place. I just need to be somewhere else.” It is in writing now, which changes what Rotherham United can pretend not to have heard.

Ciaran McGuckin has one foot out of the door

Terms are settled between the clubs and the rest is paperwork and a photograph. Around Rotherham United they have already started talking about him in the past tense.

Baldur Kári Helgason honoured for the season

The kind of year that ends with a name being read out in a hall. Rotherham United had the benefit of it every week and now have the problem of everybody else knowing.

Boardroom10 May 2032

Rotherham United to lose Ciaran McGuckin for free

There is no worse way to lose a footballer. Ciaran McGuckin has pre-agreed a move away, which means every appearance between now and June is made by a man the club can no longer sell, and somebody upstairs will be asked why the contract was allowed to get here.

Words exchanged at Rotherham United

Denzel Hall and a teammate said things this week that will take longer than a week to unsay. It was not about football, and both of them play on Saturday.

Clemens Astrup frozen out at Rotherham United

This is not rotation. Clemens Astrup has not been in the manager's plans for some time, and nobody at Rotherham United is pretending otherwise.

A row about effort at Rotherham United

Somebody said out loud what several people thought about how hard another man trains, and Ryan Kavuma-McQueen was in the middle of it. The one dressing-room argument that is genuinely about football.

Rotherham United count the cost of losing Peter Wright

40 days, the scan says, and scans are kinder than reality. The fixtures in that window have just become somebody else’s job.

The dugout10 May 2032

The manager makes an example of Robbie Cundy

“If you cannot run for the shirt, somebody else will wear it.” No name was used and none was needed; every player in that room knew who it was for.

Boardroom8 Sep 2031

Rotherham United write off $244.9K on Jay Bird

He arrived for a fee and leaves for a fraction of it. $244.9K of what Rotherham United paid for Jay Bird is money the club will not see again, and the boardroom will be asked about it for two seasons.

Charlie Rosenqvist puts it in writing

“This is not anger. I have thought about it for months, and nothing that has happened lately changed my mind.” The request is on a desk at Rotherham United, and it is not being withdrawn.

Market8 Sep 2031

The Burton Albion deal is off

Everything was agreed until it was not, and Yari Vanderhallen reports back to Rotherham United with a summer to forget. Neither club is saying who walked away from the table.

Medical ends the Louis Page deal

Everything was agreed with Manchester City and then the doctor spoke. Rotherham United have walked away from a signing on the advice of somebody who never saw him play, which is how it is supposed to work.

Squad8 Sep 2031

Ciaran McGuckin in a row with a teammate

It was not about football and everybody who saw it knows that. Two men who have to play together on Saturday said things at Rotherham United this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Squad8 Sep 2031

Words at Rotherham United training over how hard people work

Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Ryan Kavuma-McQueen is at the centre of it, and the squad will now find out whether the standard rises or the pair of them simply stop speaking.

Transfer targets8 Sep 2031

Rotherham United rebuffed over Melker Ellborg

Not now, not at any price the club was prepared to say out loud. Brighton have kept their man, and Rotherham United go back to a list with one name crossed off it.

Squad8 Sep 2031

Rotherham United count the cost of losing Peter Wright

36 days, the scan says, and scans are kinder than reality. The fixtures in that window have just become somebody else’s job.

Ryan Kavuma-McQueen needs a bigger stage

He is doing things every Saturday that nobody around him can answer. It is flattering for a season and a problem after that, and Rotherham United know which stage they are at.
