    We know, but I still bet majority would have expected him to train with development squad with cameo appearances, especially considering the jump form leagues. Or did you assume he'd be a first team player???

    He's made a good start with four goals in two games, and none of them tap ins. I compared him to COG last week and if he turns into that kind of player we have ourselves a bargain. Well done to whoever scouted him.

    It's interesting that SSW is not among the goals yet. Must be saving himself.

    Would have been nice if Brad Ash would have featured.

    So did I after Guiseley. And it's not just because they have a similar complexion. Once others see him, they'll understand. If he can be as effective for us as COGba was for us in our last second tier season, we'll have three cracking strikers minimum.

    I assumed he'd be first team. We signed him when we were in League One. It would have been a very poor move to come in and play reserve football at 25 especially when he has league football under his belt

    He had other league offers so I can't see that he's come here to play irregular football with the kids.

    Interestingly O'Grady scored a brace for Burton Albion today. I'm guessing he's on trial there? He'd make a good signing for them.

    Really good player O'Grady. One of only a sprinkling we had when trying to stay up before.

    I know we've moved on from him, but I'd have said he would be a damn good foil for either Winnall or Bradshaw.
