    I may be in a minority but I was never that excited about him so I'm not all that bothered he's signed for the blunts.

    Really good signing at this level.

    Sheffield United becoming favourites to win the league in my opinion

    Really good bit of business by them to sign a proven scorer from a pretty good level. I hope whoever the striker is we are trying to bring in is of the same class.

    Maybe a good laiker but cant be described as wow. Really do think our hopes ave been made to be unrealistically too high on this one.

    Nothing at all to suggest we were ever interested in him. I've found nothing online linking him with us. However, I do feel he could be a decent bit of business for them. But he's no O'Grady.

    Id rather have Higdon than O'grady.

    cant think of any striker we could realistically sign who would be better

    Them offering a 2 year contract, could be a big factor in joining them. I think the blunts are taking a massive gamble on this. For a goal scorer like he is, his transfers have all been free :nails:

    Blunts will be very dangerous with Higdon and Jamie Murphy linking back up again, they were at Motherwell together.

    History is littered with strikers who have scored goals in Scotland but not been a success in England. Hoping Higden is another and Hemmings isn't!!

    Is that the same Radio Deedar who told us that Winnall was never a Blunts target?

    Their bias only becomes more blatant every season.

    Could be wrong but don't the BBC pay to cover us? I remember there being a period where they didn't cover us at all for some reason.

    They've just said Higdon rejected us and Chesterfield to joint the blunts.
