Popular Post schapmanowl Posted February 13, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted February 13, 2019 Top man is Jordan Rhodes. Letter to a fan who was bullied. Hope he comes back next year and proves the doubters wrong. 23 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Salmonbones Posted February 13, 2019 Share Posted February 13, 2019 This isn't the first time we've seen a post like this is it about Rhodes. I bet for every one of these we see, there are probably umpteen we don't too. It's something that is easy to do, but so few seem to do it. I believe the word i'm looking for here is "Humble" Not just a generic reply, absolutely lovely to see the human touch. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marble Posted February 13, 2019 Share Posted February 13, 2019 You can't deny his quality as a bloke. Would be great to see him scoring regularly in our colours. Seems like a lot would need to happen though..FFP, Bruce fancying him, him hitting form & so on. Good luck Jordan 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hope he comes back next year and proves the doubters wrong. I think we’d all like him to prove the doubters wrong. Unfortunately, he doesn’t look like he can do that at present. It’s a crying shame. In terms of his altruism. We’ve also seen this sort of thing from Forestieri and Westwood quite a bit. Didn’t Liam Palmer help an ill child recently (was that Palmer)? Semedo and Loovens were very big into the Sheffield community and good deeds. Anyway, it’s a great thing that Rhodes has done but I think it’s pretty much par for the course for your modern day footballer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NYCOWL Posted February 14, 2019 Share Posted February 14, 2019 God we’ve had some tail tugging tuggers on our books. How I wish it had worked out for Rhodes. Seems like a genuinely great person. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good luck Jordan The one thing going for him to return, is that if we can't buy any players regardless, because embargo will hit anyway (not saying it will but a possibility) then SB might want to keep him since we can't sign another striker, so might be a chance yet Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DuttyTeabags Posted February 14, 2019 Share Posted February 14, 2019 Attention Owlstalkers who want to weep and cherish the memories of dear Jordan by repeatedly clogging up Owlstalk with repeated and incessant drivel. Please stop. He's making you as boring as he is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blue and white Posted February 14, 2019 Share Posted February 14, 2019 He will return. He will get his chance under Bruce. He will rediscover his form and score for fun. The doubters will wet themselves like they did the return of Westwood and claim he is the second coming. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WalthamOwl Posted February 14, 2019 Share Posted February 14, 2019 Sounds an absolutely top bloke. It’s a shame more footballers aren’t like him. I hope he does get a chance here under Bruce during the summer. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
billyblack Posted February 14, 2019 Share Posted February 14, 2019 Seems a genuine top bloke. Lovely to read and see. How that equates to scring goals which is why he was signed is another matter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
torres Posted February 14, 2019 Share Posted February 14, 2019 Amazing Jordan, what a fine human being he is. That is what football is really all about. I doubt ive ever been prouder of our £10m, £40k a week centre forward Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Inspector Lestrade Posted February 14, 2019 Share Posted February 14, 2019 Must be one of the perks of the job that they can influence "strangers" lives if only in a small way and that they can do such much good by being professional footballers. Wouldn't surprise me that they are many similar stories that go unnoticed, unfortunately, it's rare we read of these stories in the media, they tend to concentrate on the more negative side of footballers lives.

Spencerowl Posted February 14, 2019 Share Posted February 14, 2019 He did the same for my lad last year, we managed to get almost the full 11 first teams signatures on match day in a programme and only when on the way home did we realise he had lost it. His favourite player is JR and we wrote to him and got these back. He treasures them and they have pride of place in his room. JR is alright in my book despite what happens on the pitch or wherever he plays. 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
