He did take a free kick at one of the last two away games, can't remember which, which struck me as being an odd choice, but he hit it and hit it hard, so I'm not surprised.

I suspect he was part of the WBA team who also scored 100+ goals to get themselves promoted from the championship too?

I'm happy with this! He could be a better version of Clive Platt, who despite his critics actually offered something out other strikers at the time didn't. They aren't prolific, but they can bring people into play, hold it up, unsettle defences, lay it off to a more of a goal scorer, and we...

Got to love a surprise!

Sure I went last year. Looked a little like 1964 but sure it wasn't! :D Guessing you mean competitively. Remember last years friendly as it rained and they wouldn't open the covered area for us!

Being a midweek game, it'll be just our luck we will get Exeter or Plymouth. Then again, all are treks for midweek. Bristol midweek will be a jaunt too. Bleeding M5 traffic!

My thoughts exactly. I hope we just struggled to find the right player in the window rather than all our attention being put on this one transfer 'for the future'

Just read the CET article. I like him already as he seems to have asked for the chance himself and not via an agent :D If there's one profession other than footballer that's greedy, selfish, and get over inflated wages / bonuses it's bloody agents!!

Asking for cash for him may have scuppered any deal and we might have ended up losing him through mutual consent anyway. No point dragging it out IMO. Clearly isn't in the plans, seems a bit home sick despite the other Scots within the squad, probably best for all involved that he left.

Probably the most truthful tweet ever tweeted! Would like to have thought we would have brought someone else in as an actual signing from another club, but guess I am only convincing myself that there was ever a chance of that happening after Vincelot came in. Do hope we get a couple more in ASAP.

I hope this isn't our only deal on deadline day. Strange he's only got a 4 month contract though? Must be some concerns around his fitness but we want to give him a fair crack, and atleast if he's actually signed he can also become an option in the first team if he impresses in this time

Wonder how his trial at Nuneaton went

Not at all! Armstrong was a marked man. Their strikers were not marked men. And there was two of them. We had one. As for Burge not being at fault, do you not think he should have atleast tried to claim the first one? Even if it meant taking out Reda at the same time, I think he should have...

And Kate Abdo alongside him :D

Good signing for them. Shame it's never worked for him in the prem with West Brom and not getting a look in at Watford, but he's a great Championship player. Hopefully it will allow Samuels to leave on loan now

No denying he looked better yesterday in the second half. And yes, he's not been here long, I'm not criticising him, but don't think he poses as much of a threat as Armstrong, so doubt opponents will be thinking 'he's a man we should mark out of a game'.

Jim White has arrived!

Just once more :D

Id take him back, although I don't think I'd believe anyone who uses the word 'sauce' in place of 'source'. And the same goes for 'soccer'. American shite!

Another from their live feed. Interesting one as think he used to be pretty nifty, not that means we'd be in for him though; Potential target for the Sky Blues? At a time when City are searching for tricky wingers, interestingly Adam Hammill has departed Huddersfield Town by mutual consent...
