I actually think this has the potential to be a decent deal for us.

But why couldn’t this have happened a month ago? Reeks of him fishing for a better deal or shopping around with other clubs.

Presumably because we had no idea if a player who hadn’t played any meaningful football for four months was fit enough to contribute.

What’s the delay? How many training sessions do we need to see?

Indeed. I feel we are being mugged over somehow
Is he pulling the wool over our eyes by being good in training?
Mega brain plan from Paterson if true.

Announcement tomorrow morning then you’d assume
It needs to be before midday for him to be in Saturdays squad doesn't it?

Just thinking if the delay has been until EMC is back fit as he might only fit into plans as a winger? Who knows

Yeah it’s a bit of a weird signing. Though I expect if he’s been training with us he’s been getting up to speed. But once EMC and Wright are back I don’t see where he fits in other than giving others a rest.

You've answered your own question there at the end tbf.

Players will need a rest, players will get injured, players will get suspended.

It's a sensible and logical signing. No fees, wages likely not astronomical, short term commitment, seemingly good to have around the place, experienced Championship player etc.

Decent back up and makes our bench even stronger.

Agreed, with the caveat that the people saying this is already done could very well be talking out of their anus'.
Probably best to wait for an announcement from the club at this point.

North Leics…...unfortunately
Pato , Wilson, with Eccles…. We just need Shipley and Connor Coventry to sign and the good ship HMS Coventry is good to sail.

by decision they mean he's had to accept a shorter and smaller deal than he wanted as no one else is white knighting him
Positive thinking please DOD - this is a good piece of recruitment and adds depth
