CallumPar Posted January 30 Share Posted January 30 6’2 striker, just turned 21.

Stellaboz Posted January 30 Share Posted January 30 Stunned, a signing! And a striker! There'll be fans that'll be raging that we've tried to address a problem area. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Out of contract at Blackpool in the summer. If he plays well, I’m sure a contract will be offered by us. Similar situation to Fagan-Walcott. Seems like we’re kind of using the loan deal as a trial. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DAFC. Posted January 30 Share Posted January 30 Obviously give the guy a chance, but doesn't exactly get the plums pumping. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob1885 Posted January 30 Share Posted January 30 (edited) Hope he does well but I can't remember ever being as underwhelmed at a signing before. Wish we'd no bothered. Clearly skint. Edited January 30 by Rob1885 -7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Toun Clock Posted January 30 Share Posted January 30 Bit of height up there which is good, looks physical from his Instagram. Stats maybe not amazing but give the boy a chance. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

parsboi Posted January 30 Share Posted January 30 6ft 2, that’s our Todorov replacement/alternative. sometimes it’s not so much about what the signing brings on the park, but this might light some fire under the feet of the other strikers. Good luck to the laddie, welcome and fingers crossed he does well. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Toun Clock Posted January 30 Share Posted January 30 (edited) The Courier reporting we're "running the rule" over Josh McPake. Would be a good signing, done well with QP last season. Sounds like a bit of homework done on Holmes, mentions us seeing him when watching Moffat initially and McPake has spoken to Steven Dobbie about him.

Heaton Posted January 30 Share Posted January 30 Aye its a bit of a meh signing but to be honest, about 80% of our loan signings have been decent. Will reserve judgement until we see the boy in action. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HoBNob Posted January 30 Share Posted January 30 We're also hoping to sign a defender before the window shuts. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DA Baracus Posted January 30 Share Posted January 30 What are folk expecting in the January window? It's almost always loans at this level. Seems the club can't win. Fans are saying to make signings, the club do, fans are saying the signings are underwhelming. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CallumPar Posted January 30 Share Posted January 30 It doesn’t seem to be any more of a ‘meh’ signing than Fisher, Otoo, KRH and Moffat were at the time. All turned out to be decent enough. Hopefully the boy does well and earns himself a longer stay at EEP. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
