    I think this is a good solid signing.

    Donny and Killie fans seem to rate him. He has obviously got over his bad injury he suffered with Donny with player of the year awards at Killie.

    Welcome back to Yorkshire and hope your stay is a success

    P.s. its time they brought out the new kit so these new signings don't have to pose with the awful pink kits!

    This is more like it, but another over 30...

    Get some younger players in sharpish!

    Lovely to see Brad getting a cameo in the announcement vid as well.

    More likely Tilt here as skipper, than backup!

    6ft 4inches. Good height. I'm hoping we'll see our defenders score a few more goals next season.

    I’ve seen this said by a couple of people, whilst nobody is a guaranteed starter there’s no way he has signed on the basis of being a back up!

    Yes we have added physicality at the back and from set pieces we could do with a good set piece taker now

    Yes there was a lot of negativity about his signing but supporters of the clubs he played for seem to rate him and both the director of football and manager both know him well

    There is a potential for a few red cards in our defence now we need good cover

    Tilt IS the left side of the back three, you arnt hoping for Kelly are you. If so your sights are far too low .

    Where will the cover come from though? I'm sure you said earlier you think that's us done for defenders now if Kelly signs.

    A minimum of 6 is required tbh .Someone said 4 last year was enough and we saw Halliday in the back three and Richards I believe.? That didn’t work out well.

    One injury and one suspension and we are barrell scraping with 4 or 5 ?

    Hunts will be let go and Byrne a back seat surely ?

    Great signing but we need a replacement for calamity Walker its great getting all these defenders but if your keeper is a calamity and is always beaten at his near post whats the point ?

    Only one keeper kept more clean sheets
