    Hes played over 100 games the majority in League One.I would expect him to be on the bench tomorrow.

    I assume there was doubt as to whether this had gone through on time, given how late it has been announced.

    We knew about this yesterday of course but I’d feared it might not have gone through. Very pleased to have another midfield option.

    Just watched his video clip. I know we shouldn't get carried away with a 3 minute vid of his best bits but he actually looks like a proper footballer. Good distribution, excellent close control and some top distribution. Looking forward to seeing him in the shirt.

    It's so weird signing a player from the league below who couldn't get a game in mk dons first team for our first team?

    Not gonna put the lad down personally as I hope he proves me wrong.

    It is a typical Barnsley signing

    The amount of people hammering the signing before he's even kicked a ball, is embarrassing. Proper Wednesday tackle. Let's be fair, he won't need to be a world-beater, to improve on the performances we've seen this season from Styles & Russell. If he's prepared to graft and put a tackle in, he'll be fine.

    If he plays well until the end of the season, qe will have to apply for a grant to afford his transfer fee.

    I would like to think a committed Grant would be more effective than a half arsed Styles in the run in.

    We can but welcome him and wish him all the best. I reckon he'll offer something.

    Hope we're looking to sign him in the summer, as that will mean he's done well for us (or he's done sh.ite and we sign him anyway (we've form for it!)).

    The last player we got from MK Dons who was struggling to get in the first team, didn't do too bad for us.(Callum Brittain)
