We might as well sign Ted Moult to be honest. The words "fit" and "best" spring to mind.
Because Boothroyd lost the plot last summer and thought that Roy O'Donovan and Clive Platt would supply the firepower to get us promoted!How did he do at Nothampton Liam, why didn't they keep him? Genuine questions.
Lads, I know it's the harsh reality talking about this, but it's SO fucking depressing. Discussing if someone ex Hinkley or Nuneaton can do a job for us. How low have we sunk ffs.
Not sure why these 2 things correlate. I think it has more to do with the amount of gems to come out of non league in recent years. Everyone wants to think they have spotted the next one.

Sorry Reg because I always enjoy your posts but here lies the problem with football. We always had a great scouting network and many of CCFC greats came from non-league or lower league clubs.()Houchen, Regis, Stephens, Oggy, Pearce) Now people frown on such players. If we sign a numpty from Belguim, Holland or France we are so happy because the name seems exotic.
Football fans are so inconsistant. In their lives they vote UKIP and want foreigners out the country but they want a team of foreign named players who have played for some French Div3 team. Yet, they don't want to risk the chance to find another Ricky Lambert. I think Moult is a great risk to take. He lives in the area, has a strong desire to succeed and scores goals wherever he's been.

Moult always looked promising and when we let him go I had a feeling it might be a decision we would regret (a bit like when we released a young Steve Morison).

Know nothing of the lad but if he's tried at this level before and not made, I'm not sure it's worth the pennies.
Could be Northamptons style didn't suit him and ours would but we need to ensure that we're getting our signings spot on this Summer.
