    We did get Vaughan Doyle and Donaldson here and I bet they were not on a pittance

    Watt didn't play against us at Carlisle. I know it was a forgettable performance by Bowyer's squad that day !

    Watt didn't play against us, he signed in the January transfer window.

    Have you seen Sutton play?.

    Scunthorpe were negotiating a 2 year contract with him prior to Covid. Scunthorpe can no longer afford to keep him, that's a bit different to them not wanting him, or been good enough for them.

    Its madness on their part that Bolton have offered a 3 year contract to Doyle. Doyle had a wonderful purple patch between August and January for Swindon, don't think he scored after they signed him permanently though. Did nothing of note for 2 or 3 seasons before we signed him. Massive gamble for a club who have had recent well documented financial woes

    I agree ,nobody should just walk into a team and I hope our signings give good competition all around the squad.

    There goes lazy @Fordy117@Fordy117 again looking at players just because he has heard about them rather finding our own talented players

    They can’t afford him to fail because most of their budget has gone on 2 players

    I've changed my mind, now we've signed Billy Clarke this seems like an ok signing.

    I kind of want to ask that if he's so "highly rated" , how come he's only made 50 appearances in the past 5 years? But I won't. Hopefully he does the business for us - I see from wiki that he's been played mostly as a right back.

    Sounds poor for a team with ambitions of promotion, misses the first three of the season after getting sent off in his last game.

    Best thing you can do is up your standards for the club.

    Learn from the best to be the best!

    No assists - this club doesn't learn...No decent scouting system - the club doesn't learn.

    I wish Levi all the best and welcome to the club.

    Yeah, same pal...Hopefully he isn't a Guthrie like signing but we need players that have a been of quality now.

    Our contracted players barring Wood are not good enough.

    50 games at that age is either one of the two choices you mention or a premier league player that has hung around the club too long. And he ain't a premiership player.

    Have to see what happens, he can't be any worse than Mellor. You'll be able to tell after a few games whether he's good enough.

    Don't you find what you've posted rather ironic, you're the ambitious Bradford City fan (I think) who believes going into non-league and building again won't be a bad thing, which is it @Fordy117@Fordy117 ?.

    Happy clappers don't know the word AMBITION.

    We've signed a player... I hope he's very good and is up for a promotion fight.
