    He's the right type of striker by the looks of it. At least no more Guthrie.

    :joy::joy::joy::joy::joy:

    For McCalls sake I hope it works out for this young lad.
    He didn't have to use his iPad for this one.

    Underwhelming.

    We badly needed pace and something different up front. Let’s hope this lad is the answer.

    wish the lad good luck.Season loan will give
    him time to settle in.He's shown he can do
    it against a league side albeit with depleted
    squad but I'm optomistic about this.Pace and
    learning off Novak could mean we have goals
    in us now.Hope he's available for Harrogate!

    I wouldn't say its great, half the squad has very little if no first team experience. I'd say we're no better or worse than most of the division. Agree with the comment regarding quality, i've seen very little of it so far in league 2 this season. The salry cap has evened things up a lot.

    We could have literally signed a human being with a bit of pace and some of our lot would have got excited. I agree, it does look like a last minute type of signing, i'm sure he would have been available a lot earlier than this for loaning if we'd been seriously looking at him. But that said' i'll give him a a few months before reserving full judgement.

    Said it's great to play for a team playing in maroon and gold.

    Lets hope so Lancs - knowing how these things work though Monday is a big game for City, lose to the Bettys Tea Boys and (rightly) there will be some very sobering comments. Even WOAP article today talks about the embarrassment of meeting them in a league match, so it is vital we put down a marker in this match or we are going to face a lot of ribbing from not only Harrogate but Leeds and Hudds as well :*@
    So young Samuels, if you want to warm yourself even more to City fans - you know what you have to do! :thumbup:

    Nope... I want him to succeed. But i fear history will end up repeating itself. He continues to make the same mistakes, and doesn't learn from them. He's a very good coach that I have no doubts.

    As for the this signing, I just think like others do, it's very lazy one.

    Can’t say he would fill me with much hope. Seen him play a few times against United u18 and u23's and while he looked good at u18 level he seemed to lose something in the step up which isn’t uncommon, some players who did great at u18 struggle when it steps up to the u23's and they are playing against a wider age gap.

    And his stats seem to backup what I’ve seen. They aren’t anywhere near as impressive as they were at u18 level and actually the more he has struggled the worse his stats seem to have become

    Clubs will have to rely much more on scouting, coaching and astute recruitment.

    Erm.....
