5pm Signing

[Northants Pie]

As Leigh Curtis has alluded to it being an experienced centre half who do we think it will be and who would you like.

I'll go for Mike Williamson for both.

Is Shaun Brisley any good?

He seems to have a good experience with lower tier clubs, but I really don't recall him at all.

I'm the same really, as I don't know anything about him at all.  I am however positive about his signing for 3 reasons though:

1. Nolan worked with him at Orient so should know what he's getting.

2. He's described as 'a talker and a leader', so should fit into the team ethos Nolan is trying to build.

3. He plugs one of the most obvious gaps in the squad.  At least Hollis and Duffy have serious competition now.

Pretty much everything @Elite_pie said. Plus the fanbase, even those that have so far been somewhat critical of previous signings, are taking their hat off to this one, so I'm positive it's a pretty good call.

Well fans seem to be happy with this signing so happy days he has some good attributes to his name so am hopefull.

[Fozzy]

Don't remember that much about him, but anybody that is going to split up the Hollis and Duffy terror twin partnership will be a good signing in my book!

[Northants Pie]

He has had phases of being an extremely good centre half and then phases of making some basic mistakes but overall I think he will be an excellent addition to the squad

From what I read on the Carlisle forum he seems to have some ability but they didn't see the best of him and struggled to get into a poor defence. Let's hope we can get the best out of him. I'm encouraged that Kevin Nolan has already worked with him and knows what he's getting.
