At the time I was living in Glenrothes, and knew a fair few members of the Glenrothes Arabs supporters club. Him and his mate Victor "Spit the Dog" Ferreyra were invited to their end of season awards do. Both turned up in shell suits, hoovered up more than half the raffle prizes between them and fucked off back to Dundee before the clock had even struck 10. I'm not sure Rojas ever played a single first team match for United. 4 minutes ago, Ten Caat said: I remember him for a different reason.

He'll score a couple goals at some point then bang in 90. Will be England's number 9 at Euro 2024. Then suddenly he'll turn absolutely hopeless again and not score for 3 years at any level Link to comment

Was quite surprised they were still outs the top 6. McKenna has had a good season and is well thought of, with rumours Leicester are after him. But another hamstring injury would not look good on his CV. Hopefully not, and we get some sell on % of a big money transfer. Link to comment

Nearly 500 career appearances. Played 66 international matches and scored 9 goals. I've not actually seen him play since he left us, but I really just remember him being like (original) Ronaldo in some games, and like a guy who had two left feet and had never seen a football before in most other games. Plenty pace and power - goes a long way in modern day football it seems. Link to comment

He never really got a run here. Rooney was still banging them in and Stockley seemed to get sent off for next to nothing most times he played. Cards were definitely going to be marked if he stayed another season and smashing Tierneys teeth out! Link to comment

Would have fouls given against him before he’d even made a challenge in the air sometimes. Scored a lovely goal v Partick Thistle was it? Link to comment

I reckon he could have easy been a 15-20 goal striker here if he got the games. But it was the same problem for Shankland trying to break into the team…. If you are playing a system with 1 up front and the guy with the number 9 shirt is banging in 20-30 goals every season then it’s going to be very hard to get a run. could do with a young shankland or a stockley trying to get into the team now!
