[York Alty]

a genuine Alty hero.

An end of an era but that is life.

Good luck Rod and thanks for the goals and 100% club commitment.

[RocketDan]

Give that man a knighthood. I'd have to say that in the short time i have been watching Alty Rod Thornley was always my favourite player.

[Altysmiffy]

Rod is a true gent and a legend. I hope, maybe selfishly, he retains links with Alty.

I wish him all the very best whatever he oes & wherever he goes & I will keep doing the Rod-watch whenever England are on the telly.

[Alty Blue]

This should never have been allowed to happen. Given a first team place, I'm sure he could score more goals than the rest of the strikers. Gutted.

Good Luck ROD.    A True ALTY Legend.

[man in the stand]

Sad to see you go Rod but all the best..

Unfortunately I disagree.

I think the injuries Rod has suffered have mounted up, I can't remember the last time Rod completed 90 mins for the first team in a competitive mach. Hard decisions have to be made in football, and if it's best for the club for Rod to move on then that's the way it has to be.

On a more positive note, thanks Rod for all the great memories, a true Alty legend!

[Alex]

thanks for everything rod and good luck for the future.

my best memories of rod are the playoff final and of course the opener against northwich last year a true alty legend

[Inaura]

A model (semi) professional and a great lad. Hope wherever he goes he gets first team football as he's got a good shot and a good instinct for goal. Was a really entertaining member of the squad and deserves regular first team football somewhere!

[lukealty12]

Great lad, An alty legend, good luck rod!

[altyf]

I AM GUTTED...I THINK IM GONNA CRY!!!! 
YOU ARE A  LEGEND ROD...NEVER FORGET SOME GREAT MOMENTS...I really hoped to see you back in the team...you showed with your goal at st albans last year youve still got something to give!! Il never forget your goal against Vics or the play-off final!!! and of course Nuneaton!!!!

I dont know what else to say...except...for one last time...

I would walk 500 miles and I would walk 500 more just to be the man who walks a 1000 miles to see Rod Thornley score!!!
ROD THORNLEY ROD THORNLEY ROD THORNLEY!!!

 
HOPE TO SEE YOU AT MOSS LANE ONE DAY!

[robininstockport]

Quality player always with a smile on his face wheter on the bench or not. Alty thro' and thro' good luck Rod and family we will miss home and away

[jhcorbett]

maybe it's best for Rod, maybe it's best for Alty - I DON'T KNOW, but can't help feeling very sad that Rod's gone!

[Mrs Warbouys]
