    So what do we know about this lad? Nice to see the midfield being bolstered.

    Peter O'Rourke has clarified on Twitter. Looks to have legs.

    Don’t know about his footballing ability however I think he’s the brother of the lad tapping Michelle Keegan.

    Right or wrong, Twitter and “having legs” are words not to be used in the same paragraph!

    Usually a reliable site and if true should hopefully be another good signing. If we get him to like he was a couple of seasons ago when he scored 13 goals from midfield before falling out with their manager which resulted in him leaving Gills.

    He knows this division and is a good age at 28 - another good signing if he comes.

    Hopefully he can get his brother's missus to VP for a few games 'n all. :rolleyes:

    Can't say he's anyone who's caught my eye at this level. But worried that Southend only looked to keep him on reduced terms...

    How are we signing players without a manager/head coach? :confused:

    Decent player whilst at Gills, as above only left due to a fall out. Don't know why he left Southend however. i believe he's good mates with Dack, possibly house share up north?

    28, goal scoring experienced midfielder, I'd definitely be happy if it comes off,and would show we aren't just after cheap kids.

    House share? He's 28 not 18! Probably got a wife or long term girlfriend he'd rather shack up with.

    Go through Tom and Dom and Ask Edin.Or perhaps the more sinister power of Telephony.
    Seriously we do have others at the club capable of bringing transfer activity to a successful conclusion.

    Had to compete with Plymouth and Charlton for his signature allegedly, if true then his wages could have been inflated. Southend through a fair bit at their team last season with no success, with the likes of Ferdinand, Knightly and Cox. They might just be trying to cut their cloth accordingly. Unless they have a mega rich owner like Scunny.
