Lets all sing together · Jul 23, 2013

#skyblues can confirm unnamed French striker currently on trial is former @ReadingFC striker Mathieu Manset. More to follow... #pusb

RoboCCFC90 · Jul 23, 2013

So much for wanting to keep it a big secret.

Gint11 · Jul 23, 2013

Bit behind with this update!

jesus-wept · Jul 23, 2013

Is he any good ? And remember we are talking for division 3

Sub · Jul 23, 2013

he will be waiting a long time to sign for this club !!

RoboCCFC90 · Jul 23, 2013

It's the last part that makes me wonder "more to follow". We know how hard Steven Pressley has been trying to keep his identity secret in fear of another club poaching in, so why reveal his name now? He can't sign any time so why would there be more to follow?

jesus-wept · Jul 23, 2013

I hope Pressley is talking with certain knowledge.

Nick · Jul 23, 2013

Most of us knew this last week

CCFC96 · Jul 23, 2013

I released this breaking news... I'm so proud :claping hands:

Are they revealing his name because they know they now have no chance of signing him due to the ongoing embargo? just a thought!

Most likely, but I thought SP wanted to sign Manset on a Pre-Contract Agreement?

CCFC96 · Jul 23, 2013

They've probably released his name as he will have signed a pre-contract agreement

Hope so!

Has anyone explained yet how Pompey signed all them players last season whilst in Admin, yet we've signed no-one at all??????

sw88 · Jul 23, 2013

Still confused by all the secrecy.

After McGoldrick I don't want to dismiss his chances before seeing him play competitively, but I'm not convinced he's the answer. Can't see him fitting in alongside Clarke, and hope he's not a replacement......

Did they have an embargo?

It is funny how they want to keep it a massive secret but they post pictures of them online? As if nobody has any sort of brain to figure out who it is.

On 6 January, Manset announced through Twitter that his contract with Sion was terminated due to "irreconcilable differences".

ArchieLittle · Jul 23, 2013

Pompey were allowed to sign players on short term contracts after persuading the FL that they didn't have enough players to reliably field a team.
That may be kind of difficult for us to claim when we have players sitting around in the bomb squad.

Nick · Jul 23, 2013

He also started out at the same club as Guillaume Beuzelin

Manchester_sky_blue · Jul 23, 2013

Pre-contract agreements mean nothing, not worth the paper they are written on. I suspect he will shortly sign for someone else and fishface/waggy dog/Elvis will come out with the usual diatribe of "we did everything we could to secure him" "its the FL's fault" "if ACL hadnt forced us into admin we could have signed players and now look we have missed out on one".

CCFC96 · Jul 23, 2013

Went on to hereford forum to see what they thought of him http://unofficialbulls.proboards.com/thread/37840/mathieu-manset

SkyBlue_Bear83 · Jul 23, 2013

The general opinion is talent not in question just attitude and stamina. We've had enough players like that on recent years but may be worth a 12 month deal

covcity4life · Jul 23, 2013

youtube (as always) video makes him look like a don!

hope he sings, we could do with more physicality.

mark82 · Jul 23, 2013

Hope he is used to playing in front of small crowds.

Porkchophill · Jul 23, 2013

Watched him on saturday he s a big unit bit like an adebola didnt see enough of him to pass judgement but some of the other lads that seen him play last weds said he looked the part

Dhinsa's_Millions · Jul 23, 2013

Maybe we can get him then loan him to Nuneaton.

Or maybe we can get Pressley to give us an artists impression of Joy Seppala ala Crimewatch.

jesus-wept · Jul 23, 2013

Can he score 20 goals a season ? Leon Clarke can.

diggerdaley · Jul 23, 2013

Released by Carlisle Utd,oh dear...

Physicality was a good word, respect. But why does his singing ability have anything to do with it?

Clarke has been labelled with the Bad Attitude before and he's done well for us so far. Here's hoping he's in the same category come the end of next season...

Wasn't Clarke released by Swindon?

Released by Charlton Athletic WM.

orig skyblue87 · Jul 23, 2013

He looked ok in both games last week. Big strong lad, but went down with ease under pressure. Would need to judge him when fully fit and firing on all cylinders.

They didn't have enough players to field a team and fill a bench. We do. They were only month to month deals anyway I think.
