    how come when he goes for headers he ends up lower than when he was standing still?

    He's been a poor man's Tedic so far.

    Which is of course to damn with faint praise.

    I think he is stealing a wage. I wouldn't pay him in washers. I would like to see his spreadsheet stats.

    Just looked up what he is being paid. Over £10,000 - scandalous waste of money.

    Really want him to succeed as we really need a physical presence up top but I’m not impressed thus far. Thought he blew a great chance early in second half when he neither got a shot or cross in from a great position.

    There's no way we're paying this in league one when we were already 'skint' before he came in. Surely

    Likewise. His finishing hasn't been great at all, but I think he's hurrying opposition, and he's linking up well with our midfield. There's a reason we've played better in the two games before today when he got subbed on. Actually thought Phillips had his best game of the season too, made some cracking long passes that second half

    There’s not many things I can say with certainty but we aren’t paying him that. He is sorted however as Birmingham paid off his contract which probably is that a week.

    No idea how accurate this site is but it has him at just under 5k a week.

    Not at all accurate. They could of course be including the Birmingham pay off in his wages but that’s about as reliable a website as Cosgrove is a goal scorer.

    I thought he did well, considering he had to play against Reading and the ref.
