    Nobody wanted Angol either? I’ll hold judgment, until I see him play ten games .

    Really? City released French to sign for Wrexham and then signed a player Wrexham released?
    Angol with a career record arguably worse than Guthrie?
    They might turn out to be great signings, who knows, but they’re a bit meh at the moment

    Hard to judge the lad with that starting 11 at Chesterfield, but I'm sure Adams had his reasons for making that selection.

    Lavery, although I see he’s 28 not 32, so younger than I thought! 6 years then :D

    I've resolved to shelve all my previous knee jerks this season. I hope I can stick by it. Time will tell.

    As Idle says, he gives us another option up front but not really one to get the juices flowing.

    Adams says he possesses traits that will help us and complement what we already have.

    Any ideas what his strengths are?

    Ya think? That would take us to 8 forwards if another one. I dont see how that fits into 3 on a match day with 2/3 on the bench.

    Crankshaw or Vernan to depart?!

    If he is playing one up top then id say 3 is enough for this level. I think Lavery was brought in as he offers something different and isnt a target man. We can shake things up as we dont want to be too predictable. If Lavery isnt competent enough on his own can always play him with Angol/Eisa/Vernan. They can play through the middle too.

    Anything else can be addressed in January anyway. Id say its enough for 4 months of football.

    There again did Angol get the juices flowing?

    Pretty astute signing imho, you never know with Lavery, could be another?

    Could Watt cover for any absence of Cooke?

    I dont think he is good enough. If window is shut and we have injuries he could offer something as a freebie. I dont think that something is enough now though.

    He will probably end up in the NL given he hasnt been snapped up yet.
