That's the difference. We are now going after players that other clubs want, rather than trying to pick up the best of the ones that nobody is interested in.

 

Who knows how many of those games were from the bench or if he played wider though?
Also, he maybe just needs a settled run in a side to grow in confidence.

I like this signing. He's a good age with plenty of higher level experience and he's a good fit in terms of something we don't yet have at the club.

Ticks all the boxes for me, or at least on paper.

 

Spoke to a Swindon fan who said he's got decent pace and that he would be very good partnering Cook or playing just off him. Happy with the signing.

 

After 65 years of supporting WHU, I've conditioned myself to rejoice in any smidgen of hope. Take anything positive as you'll be waiting a long time for the next

 

The building in the background was the old cricket pavilion for St Edwards school playing fields. When they built the new school circa 60/61 WHU shared the pitches with the school.

 

Now you've just ruined all my perceptions of @Interested Bystander I had this impression that he was really Ray Winstone or at least Danny Dyer. Now you tell me he's called Colin !!!

 

These three did.

 

Other than the loan at Barrow he's never played below L1 though. 24 years old and nearly 130 games in all comps, definitely something to work with.

 

Aren't most of his games at League One level or higher?

If he drops down and gets more game time, you would think he'd have more success - so I'm not too worried about his record.

He won't be expected to score more than Cook. If he can contribute double figures that would be an improvement on last year by far.

 

Looks like the right kind of signing.

Have a feeling it won't impact Vadaine either.

Squad is coming together, signings seem to be at a good level.

 

Looks like a very good signing for this level.

That's the much needed pacy striker we have been crying out for. Squad shaping up nicely now after the 3 signings in the last few days.

 

I think it’s the right policy giving long contracts it takes away speculation every year and let’s face it if it fails who wants to rot away in the background players will move on

 

Hopefully with Pattison and Smith we might be more of a handful now and less of the slow casual passing

 

On the upside based on minutes played he's scored a goal every 2.4 games in the Championship

 

Colin, you do realise such positivity will make some of our resident posters confused

 

Lies! Clubs can't achieve things like European trophies if they don't own their own ground - Fordy says so!

 

Sounds just what we need, a bit of pace up top.

 

Your last words are the difference between this and last season. Seem to be signing more players that have played in leagues above as opposed to ones like Young and Odusina.
