The quality of the signings the Scot has made this summer—which has increased to double figures with Dawson’s free-transfer arrival from Sheffield Wednesday—as well as the speed at which they have come in demonstrate his recruiting power.
After declining a new contract offer from the Owls at the end of the previous season, Dawson received an initial contact on Friday, and by Monday, the transaction was finalised and delivered.
Dawson noted that Evans’s explanation of his role at New York Stadium to him was rather clear, and that this aligned with the impressions he had formed of him.

Dawson noted that Evans’s explanation of his role at New York Stadium to him was rather clear, and that this aligned with the impressions he had formed of him.
He clarified, “(He’s) really clear in how he sees it, what sort of characters he wants.” “He completed his work ahead of schedule with numerous signings.
“I spent most of the summer watching from a distance, thinking, ‘Whoa, what a project that’s going to be next season,’ as I saw those signings.
“He just stated what he expected from myself and any other player wearing that Rotherham United jersey when I spoke with him. I found it to be melodious.
Clarity is crucial in all fields of work and life. People are curious about their status, value, and where they are in the world.
“The management excels in that area.
Although I haven’t worked with him before, everyone I’ve spoken to says that the man-management aspect of things is excellent, so I’m really looking forward to working with him and his team. I am eager to get going.
As a Wednesday player, Dawson was promoted from League One through the 2023 play-offs. Prior to that, he had spent the previous season on loan with Exeter City, where he was managed by Matt Taylor, to escape League Two.
He stated, “As football players, you want to be competing at the highest levels of the league.” “I mentioned to the manager that I would like to participate in games that are meaningful, where teams are fighting for the top spot in the table.
That’s what motivates me as a player, and at the conclusion of the campaign, I want to add another medal to my collection.
“With the signings the manager has already made, Rotherham will become well-known.”
It’s possible that certain individuals are trying to turn us over, but maybe we can gain the upper hand.
“No matter what football club you play for, you have to have high standards and perform every week as a professional football player.”The managers made an effort to sign players who understand what it takes and have experience in this league.
We’ll need to take note of those awful 1-0 victories and focus on that aspect of the game because that’s what League One’s all about, in my view.
It cannot always be attractive.
“It all comes down to winning, no matter what football team you play for. If you’re not winning, things get tough, which is how it should be, in my opinion.”
