stuart fleetwood i wish!! This is a quiet way of saying WE GOT NO MONEY

[Pendle Red]

I liked Rommy a good footballer & true gent

All the Best for the future Rommy

Gutted really am and my 2 lads are upset. As much as i wish Rommy well and good look ' just wish it was'nt true especialy after the fans forum in the crown when boco was mentioned and we we're told their was'nt a problem

[melonhigh]

Sad. Wonder if Coley will have anything to say?

[Doug]

My partner is not a Stanley Fan, in fact I considered divorce, but in truth she was gobbsmacked when I told her Rommey was leaving, she even watched the ACN matches too see him.

I really think this is a bad day for us.

If the Telegraph story was true, then it won't be the first time that players have been forced out of the club due to xenophobic attitudes.

I think there's a tendency when players leave the club to sentimentalise them. Boco was ok in the Conference, but to be honest he hasn't really made the step up since we won promotion. I can't see any English league clubs lining up to sign him. If he does stay in the UK I'd be surprised if he became a regular in any team above Blue Square Premier level.

[shakermaker]

Quite upset at this but not surprised.

Gutted for a few reasons;
1) Alone; Rommy's presence in a Stanley shirt brought life to the whole team. Passes improved when he was involved, we showed skill and confidence.
2) How great was it to see a lad so happy to play football in the modern day! Of course, with this much personal passion in his game; it was inevitable that with things going wrong off the pitch, performances upon it would be affected.
3) As others have said if we'd have put him on the transfer list in the summer we'd have achieved a transfer fee, however as it is we've probably had to pay his contract out!
4) A true gent.

Don't put bloody ideas in his head............

came 'home' for the Leicester game last year and applauded Rommy as he headed for the dressing rooms after the game - seeing this, he came over to shake hands with this ordinary fan. What a gent - other than Mullers once saying hello during a warm up, no other player has acknowledged my support.Shame to see him leave - respect and best wishes, Rommy.

That reminds me of when he first joined us and when he was leaving the pitch I shouted "I love you Rommy" in French..he grinned and gave a big thumbs up...reminded him about it a year later on a night out and he remembered it, and we had a good laugh about it

[Oldgobbin]

Agreed. Very sorry to see him go, but if a player is unsettled and doesn't want to stay, then it's pointless to stand in his way. Bonne chance Rommy, et tous nos meilleurs souhaits pour l'avenir!

My daughter and her classmates loved it when he went to a local school to help with their french lesson, his visit persueded some of them to attend Stanley games.
