I'm assuming nothing came of DC's meeting with a free agent?

    If its him then on paper stats wise looks poor, collectively we could have put the cost of Dallas, Shaw, Watters and Cosgrove and bought a tried and tested Striker for this level. when will we learn this collection of cheap players just costs money with little chance of resale value or impact playing wise.
    There's 10.5 years worth of contracts between watters, Shaw, Dallas and Cosgrove for a total return of 15 goals, even if they were on 1k a week it would be 900k investment with watters transfer fee, not difficult to see why we're losing money hand over fist.

    Blimey, give them chance. The call was Thursday afternoon and it’s now Monday.

    I would imagine even if they have signed on the dotted line, we won’t announce until later in the week. Now I’ve said this, it will probably be announced at 5PM today.

    I saw something earlier that said Rob Staton had let it slip that the player was from the MLS but now I can’t find that and I can’t see anything on Rob’s Twitter account.

    Seems like some folk are putting 2 and 2 together and getting 5. I guess we will see soon.

    It's to be hoped that they have just left a club and are match fit. They can score lots and leave in the summer, for me, if they play their part in winning the play offs.

    Sure I heard Adam Oxley say (0n a podcast) he thought a player from America or words to that effect. Don't know if that meant an American or one playing in America.

    Seriously? Did you watch us try to play with a back 4 1st half Saturday, as much as I hate the 352 there's not a cat in hell's chance we'd be so crazy without proper defensive full backs.
    More likely 343 or 3421 I'd think

    Can't be Seb Soto then, he's an American winger with two USA caps.

    I'm hoping he's misspelt centre half personally.
