Nile Ranger ?

Already been done page 7 Hopkin To Go thread, mate.

 

@Silverbantam has only just done the bin rummage. For him its a scoop.

 

Seriously... watch the interview from last week with true Geordie podcast he explains his life

Yes he did get drunk and crack a women.. so did collymore and he scored an overhead against Leeds



Yes he got a picture of himself with a gun

Yes he’s had a life where he was in the hood in London whatever

Remember when Taylor was manager there was a striker called Grant? He murdered someone





The guy scores goals

Have you seen him? He’s talented, he’s 6ft.5 or whatever

He’s crazy

Just get him out of bed on time

 

Seriously



It’s worth the risk





It’s that or f**|€|€|ing relegation


I know it’s sad but he’s worth a shot, we’re bottom of the league, this guy can score goals he just can’t get out of bed

 

You his agent?

 

He's shite, definitely not the answer and the last thing we need

 

First reaction was no thanks, more baggage than Heathrow. But hey, like Silver says, desperate times call for desperate measures. And he is certainly a character. He will probably go off the rails again before long, but might see us through to January.

 

Is he a bit of a lad? Don’t know anything about him? Can he put it in the net? Does he give defenders a nightmare? If yes, not interested in his history, short term contract to see how he does.

Career to date is, shall we say, eventful

He's a big lad, and quick. Goalscoring record not great. But we need a target man who's not under contract, been around, and there's not many of those about.

 

His record does not look the best but we need something up front?

Can't see him being on much money, probably pay as you play?

 

With a 'legal history' like that on Wiki, 'character' might not be the word I'd use!

 

Good job Mason's not here to carry out his fit and proper person test anymore

 

Think he`d be a good signing, considering the mess were in. Jamie Lawrence was a bit of a lad but look how he turned out. Chance to prove himself.

 

'Character' being a euphemism for 'absolute nut job'

 

Last chance I'd say.

We badly need a center back.

 

Well he looks a handful in more ways than one! We can see how he does surely? We are desperate.
