I don't go along with bringing back past favourites , the only one I can think of we did that with, and it worked, was Mick Gooding. Gerry Forrest did a second spell with us but he was by then at the end of his career.
Unless the player in question is exceptional (at our level) and has a keen desire to play for us, I wouldn't consider it. Out with the old, in with the new. Its not often past glories can be resurrected.
I would love to see him back, would improve our team , he was still a menace when he came to NYS with other clubs.. one of the best players ever in a Millers shirt IMO.

I think that's not a bad rule of thumb Calypso.
Pringle always did divide opinion. I was never a great fan first time round and I wouldn't be too fussed about a return. Although in fairness some of the current crop make Pringle look like Messi. So is he better than what we have got? Yes. Is he as good as I would like to see out there for us? No.
Thing is we've got Newell. Bailey-King looked like a player when he came on for last game of the season. Could use the Pringle wages to improve the side in other areas. I personally don't think we've got a right winger.
I'm definitely not against Pringle at all, I was sorry to see him go and was disturbed to read his comments about the club ( which in light of recent experience seem to have held an element of truth, sadly) . Could he do a job for us now ? Possibly. Could we do worse? Without a doubt, its the one thing we are hitherto good at. Its just that I don't believe the answer lies with recycling past favourites.
I'm reminded back in the day at Millmoor when a game was running against us the answer, according to an old fella who stood behind me (slightly tongue in cheek I suspect) was to shout at the top of his voice.."Get Habbin on!"
