We have justed signed him from Sunderland, we being Cov, and I know he was on loan with you at the end of last season.

Is he any good? Is he quick?

very quick with an eye for goal. He worked hard too.

Very good player at our level, hope he does it for you.

Its hard for us to say whether he'll make it at Championship level because there is a fair sized gap between the divisions and we've only seen him for a relatively small amount of time.

He was great for us, as misterb says he has pace, any eye for goal, works hard and is hungry. 9 goals in 15 games in a team as crap as ours last season shouldn't be sniffed at.

If you were in our division I'd be saying you have a great player who'll get you 20 goals next season but I have reservations about whether he'll make it in the Championship.

I hope he does though as he was fantastic for us and without him we'd be in Division 4.

Let us know how he gets on.

We also thought that Daryll Duffy was good when he came on loan to us, virtually sunk without trace since.

Another prospect lost, lets hope Behan comes of age next season!

Im still wondering who these signings are Turner said we would be drooling over, hope one is Nardiello

This comment is coming from a bloke who left the other board as they were constantly pulling the club down. Strange

Deep down I knew we couldn't afford him, but I'm still disappointed to see he's signed for somebody else.

I agree with the comment that he was a cracking league one player, championship quality, not sure, we'll see.

He can score goals and score lots of them. anyway, when have you ever signed anyone from us who didn't make it at championship level.
