I can't comment on the player as I know nothing about him, but what this signing seems to show yet again is how limited (or lazy) Gent's scope is.

 

George Miller MkII

 

Christ we love rolling this nonsense out don’t we. Rolling back the years as per. I have a short memory.. Kurtis Guthrie, Theo Robinson, George Miller, Austin Samuels, Vadaine Oliver, Caolan Lavery, Nathan Delfounso, Tom Elliot, Aramide Oteh, Lee Angol, Clayton Donaldson, James Vaughan, Lee Novak, Tom Clare and Eion Doyle.

There is roughly 5 years of strikers for you there. We sign crap. We are crap.

 

Donaldson Vaughan and lee Novak we’re not dreadful

 

Is there anything more Bradford City than the manager saying he knew CK was for us when he told him (about his previous loan spells in league 2), 'I couldn't stick the ball in the back of the net. I had chances but I just couldn't do it'. I mean, that's the problem we have with the players that are here already so he should fit right in.

 

That’s why I like Parky. Gets players in who can make an immediate impact and get out of the division as quickly as possible. If we were mid table in league one then I could see the need for “potentials” to supplement an established squad. Parky’s blueprint should be pretty easy to follow but our CEO can’t see it, yet we as fans have a pretty good idea of what’s needed.

 

Do you really know how a football business runs? If you don’t have support staff to include coaches, physio, medical, ground staff, security, admin, ticket sales do you expect Kevin McDonald to do it in his spare time?
That comment lays out what utter nonsense is posted on here sometimes ? Well done!

 

I don’t think we have skimped but there is a level of incompetence. We have changed managers who all want different players, plus we have no identity so that despite different managers we should have a plan and an identity and style of play. We haven’t, so here we are having to try and carve out a set of players that can actually do the job,

 

Yes. He looks quite aggressive. Almost like a younger model of Walker, but more direct. In fairness, his Dad's a bit of 'roll your sleeves up character' and so I can imagine there is no way he'll coast through matches - as he will surely have been an influence.

It was a decent opening. Let's hope for a few more.

 

They will if we line up with 8 defensively minded outfield players again!

If we were in the play offs I'd be happy if the manager wanted to set up negative but with nothing to play for league wise I think he should be a little less cautious and try and build some partnerships for players he wants to keep before the annual summer rebuild.

 

Good shout with comparison to Daisy McNiven in style and build. Not sure Daisy ever had a man bun though!

 

In fairness Tulloch never had much of a chance and when he did, i.e. Newport, he was good.

Note, I'm judging Kavanagh after three matches against four different types of opposition and he's looked good against them all.

 

Agree. He defo has that cocky ‘don’t care who I clatter’ gene from his dad. Keep up the bright start, Callum

 

50 million pound bid incoming.....

 

Don't be daft. Even Bradford City don't do 2.5 year loan deals .....................

 

He has 20 goals in 28 games for the Boro U21 team, including 5 in 8 games this season in the PL2. Poor record in his L2 runs so far with Newport and Harrogate. Not like he was barely used either in L2, 13 starts at this level from 31 games. Might be struggling to transfer his youth form to the mens game? Didn't Thierry Nevers have a great record at West Ham and Readings U21s?

Always time on his side and we've got another long contract on the books, cant see him making the team much this season unless we have injuries.

 

Next season. Kavanagh & Young with Cook on the bench. Ideal scenario.

 

We were going to get Wyke, then we made our CEO cry and he pulled the plug.

 

I am sure he won't be the worst forward we have signed in recent years. We have to give him a chance, after all, he has a better record at 20 than Nahki did.
