    Lee Gregory scored 10 in 20 last season at age 36.

    I wish I looked as fit as him when I was 37. If we’d signed Cristiano Ronaldo would be saying the same about his age? I think not. I’m excited about this signing

    Yay.

    Fully appreciate the opposing views, and understand the concern. But this pleases me. You can’t have a squad full of unproven lads with no guile, no bol**x. You need a b*st*rd or two. Players who’ve been there and done it.

    The high press worries are silly. He won’t be leading a press. But he will be scoring daft goals and leading the group when needed.

    If it doesn’t work out, so be it. Neither did Cosgrove who hasn’t a thousandth of David’s talent.

    Look at his goal catalogue. Great signing.

    Just need Gareth Barry now to steady the midfield.

    Maybe we’ve signed the new captain

    It's true, he's signed, just seen it on YouTube and there he is in a Barnsley cardigan.

    Better than any striking options apart from DKD, who I doubt will be here at the start of the season. So I’m ok with it tbh, would rather watch him then Watters.

    Yes 37 is just a number.
    Unfortunately it’s quite a big number.
    However, I’ve heard of him and quite prepared to give the lad a chance

    I’m ok with this / much better than the scattergun approach of last couple of season when we’ve ended up with Dallas/Shaw/ Cosgrove / Watters - who none have been any good or hardly even played.

    a lot of the defences in this division aren’t much better than league 2? He should be able to give us something.

    Experience and quality - on the decline but that isn’t an issue.

    The concern is though that they keep bleating about playing a high pressing game, wanting quick turnovers etc - he’s never been quick and he’s bound to have lost his legs to an extent, so how do those things mix?

    Left field; but I’m not unhappy per se.

    I’m ok with this signing. Quality player. Of course I don’t expect him to play every game, but what a good lad to have in the squad.

    Personally i think him and DKD would be a mouth watering prospect two players who have great football brains.
