I can see why this is being ridiculed considering the continuous back and forth every window.

However, I think it’s a good signing. He’s got plenty of Championship experience, is technically very good and can play across the front three.

He’ll also be 10000% committed and demonstrate that on the pitch, something we’ve all moaned about lacking this year.

It’s low risk, low cost and at the least gives us an attacking creative option off the bench.

If it’s a deal to the end of the season it’s worth a go. If he can add small contributions but boost our in-game management for the younger players, it might really help.

why does everyone give ITK's shit, they're giving information they have to us, shit happens sometimes that delays announcements, and frank isnt about to say in the press conf that "oh yeah hes having a medical and were planning on signing him today" when things could fall through.

i know i know GIMOC was/is still about n 2 weeks late to his 48hours signing announcement, but id rather had some excitement about transfers than another thread about vegetables football chants (sorry @Sky Blue Harry H )

Haha - no offence taken mate - happy to hear rumours about stuff/potential ins/outs etc, it's just the 'leaking' of team news on social media that I think is wrong (but a minor irritation in the bigger picture). PUSB!

Surely there's no rule saying players need to be announced as long as they have signed and done paper work?

In theory (and I'm not saying this is the case here), a club could sign a player and not do an announcement and just put them in the squad on match day.

what a dichotomy of ITKs

I don’t think he is, or at least not planned to, but I will bow to higher knowledge…. and also that prick GIMOC

They'd be something majorly wrong with the signing, if he didn't!

Cant see it being the next few days anyway, very minimal training today, none Tuesday or Wednesday, so the only proper training session is Thursday. Maybe then.

I do notice we have a PDL game v Birmingham Friday wouldn't be surprised to see him play that then announce if he comes through it ok

Last i heard was it wasnt far off last week. Again though I don't think this 3 games in 7 days is going to help things complete this week

Would the match, hold off the admin team? If no training today would be a great time to get him holding a t shirt at Ryton no?

And that is why us sensible folk are saying it’s a ridiculous signing.

those are crazy wages for somebody who’s played 45 minutes in 6 months

You see this is the issue isn’t it. He was apparently signed and done but now turns out he hasn’t even agreed wages with us?

Face value 7K when we are apparently pot-less is a lot for a player we don’t even know if he can last 90 minutes. I would understand it if he played a lot in America but he barely played four games.

Still think he’s a good signing but not at that price.

Wouldn’t have an issue with a low base and playing bonuses. Wouldn’t want to sign him and then he never gets fit enough or good enough to play.

He does have a habit if I’m not wrong of asking for more once it’s been agreed? Did it to us when Swansea signed him if not wrong?

Disagree when we don’t have funds. Could easily bring in a loan player or two with that.
