Fallon Plymouth Departure Brewing

Overnight it was reported that Rotherham United Manager Ronnie Moore has spoken with Plymouth gaffer Peter Reid about taking Rory Fallon away from Home Park. According to Moore "It would be nice to have somebody like him with all his experience."

At this stage however it seems - fortunately (and no disrespect to League 2's Rotherham) there may be some other clubs interested in securing the Kiwi target man. "There's a bit of interest from First Division [League 1] clubs and a Championship club ... but  to be honest, Fallon's on decent money and if these other clubs do come in for him we havent a chance."

Whether the Rotherham approach has any real wheels, it seems increasingly clear that Fallon is on the market as far as Plymouth is concerned and if somebody is prepared to take his wages off Peter Reid's hands he is a good chance to go. Furthermore, with the Plymouth Herald continuing to report that Reid's number one priority is to bring another striker to the club and with Fallon unlikely to make the team for the weekend after featuring in the Reserves 4 nil loss midweek, the reasons for Fallon to stay are also diminishing it would seem.
