New forward signs

I assume this is the last loan signing to cover all the needed areas.

Difference in this one is he is here for the rest of the season where as the others seem to be initial month so they seem to rate him.

He looks decent enough, would have preferred a CM but another player who knows how to score isn’t bad. Just hope he gets the service needed.

people are complaining about his picture, saying he does not looked thrilled to be here. 🤣

i think its a good signing, what notts mentioned in their article sounds useful and i think if he can play wide it will be more useful. hes not been described as a striker, more a forward which means he could play elsewhere.

looks the type of player you need at this level.

Exactly my thoughts @NottsTastic, struggling to see him as an upgrade on Tyson who we let go and just see him as an option. Wootton and Dennis would score us plenty of goals with a dominant midfield behind them. Would have much prefered out efforts were put into finding a central midfielder who is an upgrade on what we already have.

I think you have to take this signing as it comes, if he scores and does well great.

He could be one of these cover signings that won't get much game time but won't be bothering Ardley, or causing him headaches.

I am looking forward to see what he brings to the team, but we have Wootton, Dennis and Thomas.

Ardley seems to prefer Thomas despite Dennis seeming to be the most likely to score or contribute to games, so I'm not sure how the new forward will fit in. It's probably going to be as an impact sub.

It's all depending on how he does for us and, how frequently he will get game time. I can see him being used in rotation, mostly coming on from off the bench.

Wes Thomas and Kristian Dennis are two different types of players.

If you want pace and directness, you want Thomas. If you have the ball going into the oppositions box a lot, or want to make them think about marking someone a little trickier then Dennis is your man.

Hopefully this new loan striker brings something different.

Good signing for this level, he has the experience which some of the other squad players doesn't and this could be his way into the squad. I wouldn't write him off before seeing how he settles in.

He could grab some of those important goals that are needed.

Posted

Can't be any worse than what we could have signed, if he gets goals great but if he don't, he won't play. Simple...

Cover or not, he needs time

I am personally glad the club has signed a striker, I would have found a way to let Nathan Tyson play myself but if this player can bag some goals. It will all prove to be worthwhile I think.

Posted

My only wish for him is that he plays in a direct manner, as this would benefit other players. Kyle Wootton takes the brunt of being the player to hold the ball up, Wes Thomas needs the service and Kristian Dennis is the fox in the box type striker.

None of these have the ability to run directly at players, neither are they intimidating at all.

I'm pleased with the signing.

Good signing for our level, I agree his experience could be useful.

Posted

It's a signing that should give the club a boost, if he's got goals in him, great because we need them right now.

Posted

Looked good today, I would like to see him handle a better squad that’s setup well but I felt impressed.

Posted

He slotted in well, thought O'Brien and Crawford helped to settle him into the side.

Posted

I would assume so because theres been quite a few short term loans this season.

Posted

Good addition, I thought he looked good.

One of those players who want to play and do well, you can see that. Bigger test coming up, I think he should start in the next league game.

Posted

He looked strong from what I seen and he put himself about, I would considering giving him the nod to start tomorrow alongside Kyle Wootton.

Posted

If he gets those goals needed to win games, it will prove to be a good signing. I think I need to see him for a more games before I can say anything, as I want to see how he copes being well marked or against a team that parks the bus.

I am happy with the signing though, it does make sense.

Posted

I am looking forward to a chance to get a proper look at him, if he continues to score, some won't think twice. Let's hope he can fire us to a finish insid the playoffs. Anyone who helps Kyle Wootton would be labelled good business in my mind.

Posted

I wouldnt think we need anymore loans/players even in an emergency.

Posted

How’s he getting on? I know he scored in his debut but since, has he looked like someone capable of scoring on a regular basis? Does he make good movement?

Posted

I am hoping to see Scott Wilson more at home, he looks a good player just needs a couple of goals to get going.
