He sounds a bit like Nadesan not the physical presence that I think we need.

That’s a bit presumptuous to assume we will be playing 1 up front all the time. I don’t think it’s a strange signing, the lad has scored goals at this level and Yen’s has seen him in training at Exeter so knows what he’s about.

He claims his best position is no 9. If he can reclaim his form when he played for Exeter we will have made a very good signing.

I remember him now, had an absolute stormer when Exeter played Liverpool in the FA Cup a few seasons back...

Strange game, shown live on council telly, think the famous curse of the Liverpool keeper struck & vague recollection that it was first time I had heard of Joe Maguire (who would like it known that he is not Harry's brother).

I stand by my opinion the lad has been awful for 4 years although hope he gets the opportunity to prove me wrong
