Bristol Rovers fans split as Tyler Smith recalled by Sheffield United and sent back to League One

Bristol Rovers fans are split over the news of Tyler Smith heading back to Sheffield United.

The striker has been recalled from the Gas by the Blades - and immediately sent out on loan again to League One rivals Rochdale.

Whilst some Rovers fans were disappointed to see him go, others felt it freed up space in their squad for more signings.

Dan Wright: Right decision. Will probably score goals elsewhere but we need to free the wages for better. Now we HAVE to get better.

Mancgas: Suspect it’s more to do with injury and game time but good luck to lad. One to watch for future when he’s strengthened and physically matured.

Andrew Haskins: Why are people actually upset by this?! Some people mind! Hardly played, our system doesn’t lead to his style of play, probably came a season too early with the change of manager and they style he wants to play.

Jer Kinsman: Has great potential but too lightweight at the moment for the challenges we currently face.

Holmz: I rated this geezer actually... fast and could finish. Obviously not the finished product but if he was he’d be playing for Sheffield United.

Jason Radnedge: Showed glimpses at times, but drifts in and out games is my honest assessment. Definite potential though.

Ryan Herbert: Never set the world alight. Won't be missed. Just get rid of Adeboyejo now. Perhaps get a older head to help out up top, these young lads we've had for the last few years just ain't up to it.

Seb Hurcombe: Not surprised really. Wonder if Nichols will now stay until the end of the season, although if I was him I’m not sure I’d want to having been told I wasn’t wanted.
