Striker signed on loan

Jon Macken signed from Derby County on loan.

 

Really ?

Get in.

 

For Us?

If true that's bloody brilliant. I remember him last season being subbed off at Oakwell against us and throwing a hissy fit kicking the dugout and that

 

Good signing if true

Plenty of experience

 

just got the news via text nt

 

Given my track record in judging strikers

He'll be ****.</p>

Delighted at that mind, bit of a coup for us.</p>

 

Its now on official site nt

 

Stats..

I'd say

We've bagged ourselves a striker with genuine top level experience, not just someone who's played in the ressies fora prem team. Let's hope he gets plenty of goals (if we can muster up some sort of service)</p>

 

He Can't Be...........

worse than when we got Deon Burton on loan from them to play up front

 

RE: I'd say

True. If he's got to traipse back to the halfway line to get the ball then the Oakwell intelligencia will no doubt be barracking him for not notching.</p>

Looking forward to seeing Howard feeding him the bullets in a cliche stylee.</p>

 

at least he's got a proper footballer's name

 

RE: I'd say

He has a fairly decent strike rate of around 1 in 3 for the league.</p>

I havent seen him much , is he quick or is he a box man?</p>

 

RE: I'd say

At Preston he seemed to have good pace over short distances - get himself clear of the defender and get a shot in.</p>

Don't know about his all round game, certainly not a target man though.</p>

 

Davey will soon change that

Or at least try to</p>

Targetmenaplenty</p>

 

he's a legend at preston too

so hes bound to smash 3 in or miss 3 open goals this saturday....

 

I thought that

Should spice up his debut a little bit.</p>

Wonder if there's a view to a permanent signing</p>

 

Halls Should Be Nervous

Signs on loan for Preston and has to make his debut away from home and by marking a Preston legend. Mackem will get a good hand from the away fans. Lets hope he plays better than the last time he played at Oakwell (Y) (Y) (Y)

 

Chuffed to bits, he'll be a great asset for us. nt

 

Good signing

A couple of goals on his debut against his old club will do nicely!
