    Hang about. All those saying he's a great replacement for BRE......BRE wasn't in the team!

    Very happy we're getting competition for places now, but not sure if it's wise to break up a defence that for once looks pretty solid.

    I said I was happy :)
    Just concerned we're going to replace a player at the back just for the sake of it. As long as Caravan is happy knowing he's not a starter at the moment.

    By all accounts Plymouth are gutted to loose him, both manager and fans, he was wanted to be closer to his family and wanted a longer contract, happy days we have got this deal done, well done Lee turnbull

    Or Ryan Lowe!

    Seriously, thanks for taking time out with your comments.

    He is a player who has always played well against us, so along with the rest of the Bantams fans, really pleased and surprised with this signing

    I have seen him listed as right footed so those saying he is a replacement for BRE may be technically wrong.
    Staunton to come back on the left side and AOC to go at the end of the season.
    Seeing as he has spent a few years at scunny and look where they are now, i dont know if it is an endorsement or not.
    Local lad,experienced so a good piece of business from the new crew.

    This Clayton bashing is wrong he was playing well up to his injury in his first season here. And he has been far from our worst player this season. His age is catching up with him now but we have had far worse

    Interesting comments on the facebook Plymouth fans forum.
    General consensus is his level's league two, however they're disappointed he's left as their current crop of centre halfs aren't as good.
    He's very vocal and has good organisation skills, however lacks pace.
    comments range from "He's our best player" to "Good, we can now bring someone better in"

    However, he's respected and hasn't left under a cloud, every comment wished him well, and understood he wanted to be up north with his family.

    Sorry Mr A. O'Connor but you'll be moving on at the end of the season!

    "However, he's respected and hasn't left under a cloud, every comment wished him well, and understood he wanted to be up north with his family."
    In my view and City's by the sounds of it he's here for all the right reasons.
    Bet his family are over the moon, brilliant.
    Mr Turnbull you've done your homework on this signing that's for sure.
    Ticks all the boxes.
