    I get your point but if you're thinking he'll be much of an upgrade on devine or anderson I think you'll be disappointed.

    Anderson.

    Looks like we've signed a dud in Longridge too.

    I'm not a lover of what other teams fans think or say, you only have to see some of the comments on here ;), I take your point, but as I've posted so far Bowyer hasn't made a poor signing IMO this season ?.

    OK you lads have me there but lets wait and see how the season pans out he may be required at some time but yes not the best so far.

    Fingers crossed we never get to the stage where we need to rely on Anderson again. Poor man’s Akpan and that’s saying a great deal

    Maybe Anderson's a late developer :whistle:.

    Don't get this signing.

    Seems like a job for the boys signing.

    He isn't that good and it just makes offering Anderson & Devine new contracts seem more foolish.

    Did Taylor play in the second half of the Liverpool friendly?

    Not knocking. Just asking someone to confirm if it's the same guy I saw play for us during pre-season. Also stated the reason he might have looked not very good - lack of match fitness. If it is the same lad, hope he's been training.
    With regards to Bowyers signings - I'd say Anderson is a bad un (he signed his contract), and I don't think Henley or Longridge are much cop either, but on the whole, I think he's an excellent recruiter, so I hope this latest one comes up trumps

    Footnote: I wrote this before reading the posts after your response. Others seem to confirm that Anderson and Longridge aren't much cop.

    Seems to have the same ability Cullen did, which was to improve whoever played along side him as well. Palmer and Akpans best form has been along side Cooke.

    I dont think this is a bad signing as its only short term.If he does get fit and plays as cover for the injured midfielders and plays well . We will have the option of extending his contract to the end of the season.

    Seems an okay back up to me. Played under Bowyer twice before at Blackburn and Blackpool, so Bowyer will know all about and must trust him to come in and do a job.

    If I recall, he was steady enough against Liverpool.
