Millers make record signing with Pope...

The Millers have paid £150,000 for the 23 year old striker who hit 9 goals for Crewe last season, equalling a club record which the club paid for Lee Glover, Alan Lee, Tony Towner and Martin Butler.

The clubs chief operating officer Paul Douglas told themillers.co.uk; "Tom has agreed terms on a deal with us today and we are looking forward to seeing him action when pre-season starts next month,"

"I believe the signing of Tom is proof of this clubs undoubted ambition to challenge with the top teams in the division. We are very pleased to have signed him and I am sure he will be a real hit with our supporters." he added.
