Well he's got plenty of Championship experience so that puts him above the majority of our current squad.

While we really need a striker, I suspect we are desperately trying to get anyone in who might improve the squad given the current state of the team. With the transfer window closed this guy might have been all that's available.

It's desperate measures, but that's where we are.

And no doubt turning up on an auction site near you, signed by Rory Griffiths a real piece of nostalgia this one it's from when the fireman celebrated his 44th birthday with a magnificent one all against Oxford.
I'm sure Ponty will love one.

True and a striker is needed but you hear time and again about our midfield getting over run this season Mockers mentioned it earlier. It seems that Adams is just going to keep signing cheap midfielders until one comes good, let's hope this is the one although looking at his stats he hasn't been signed for scoring goals.

Low expectations and simplistic thinking produces negative outcomes.

Interesting comment from Wotton this morning in the Brentherald about Toumani Diagouraga's performance on Tues against the MKS reserves, quote "I don't know when he last played".
Well for fecks sake shouldn't you or Derek know exactly when he played. Because he may be a decent player but he certainly ain't match fit.
Even Errorington commented in his attempt at an upbeat piece that he wasn't exactly trim, and he had played only thirteen games for Leeds last season.
Unbelievable-amateur hour again at austerity Argo.

He played a dozen games for Ipswich last season as well to be fair and was very highly rated by Brentford fans after playing over 200 games for them. He definitely won't be match fit but must say that this signing is a bit more promising than some of the others-just got a feeling that Derek may have pulled a rabbit out of the hat. Could be wrong of course and he may another Folly [double entendre intended], all will be revealed in due course.

The fact he was getting games for Championship clubs last year makes it all the more strange that he was still unattached in October. Perhaps he was initially being a bit picky, then when no paycheques arrived he suddenly realised he’d have to take the next offer - regardless of where it came from?

In theory, he should be plenty good enough for a shite League 1 side. Have we signed him till the end of the season?

Played once for Leeds last season, the other 12 for Ipswich on loan.

Thanks Pat for update, maybe you should forward the info to Paul Wotton.

a professional coach would have known I agree, but a dyed in the wool true green 'legend' has no need for such 'trivialities'
