Clayton Donaldson

Really pleased with this, and very pleasantly surprised that he has dropped to league 2. Despite his age, I would have expected him to secure a move to at least a league 1 club.

Well done to all at the club who have made this possible

Welcome home Clayton

 

Good signing. Age is only a number and he keeps himself in good nick.

 

He’s come too retire

Good signing for this league

 

Got to tell us the next one first pal.

 

Only if you spill the beans on the other two signings.

 

I think you'll hear many City fans waxing lyrical about our front two this season, not sure we will be keeping Scannell but if we can with young Ismael they should get plenty of service.

 

This sort of signing would have never happened under the old dictator so bit of credit should go to owners to let Bowyer actually bring in who he wants

 

The bottom pic is the game I was talking about Jay, he was unbelievable.

 

his goals will come in handy , 1 in 32 games last season .

 

This is a good signing, Donaldson will bring vast amounts of experience and leadership which we've sorely missed. Plus he's a proper horrible b*****d on the pitch, something else we've missed. As for his ability, we'll just have go wait and see and hope his legs haven't gone. Although 36 year old Fabio Quagliarella was the top scorer in Italy this year, outscoring Ronaldo so age isn't everything.

 

Very happy with this signing.

I know we’ve signed a lot but we need a lot more. Hopefully 7 more in my opinion.

1 cb perm-hopefully to replace o’conner
1 cb loan-hopefully paudie
1 cm perm-leader sort/ball winner
1cm loan-creative sort/ball player
1 striker perm-likely Cullen
1 striker loan-a grafter channel runner sort

 

Burns unit bet he at least doubles that tally next year?

 

Not that worried for Donaldson’s goal record, for me he can turn Doyle from a 10-12 goal a season to a 20+

 

I'd expect:

Paulie O'C
If A O'C leaves, another experienced CB
A ball winner
If Akpan leaves, a creative sort, maybe Butterfield coming back
A left winger
If Scanell leaves, another will get
A striker in addition to Donaldson.

Think that might be it. Maybe a loan or two.

 

He scored almost from the corner flag near the TLDallas stand. Brilliant goal

Edit - actually I’m thinking of Calvin Zola. The game you’re thinking of was the last game of the season at home. Crewe thumped us 5-1 with Shaun Miller bagging 2

 

That was Calvin Zola!

 

Even when past their best they still have a presence up front
