Anyone heard of Brandon?!

Scored Oxford’s goal of the season last year…….

We desperately need a Winston Reid type character. Not this guy. Presumably Ejaria is out for a good while yet.

What an odd signing. I thought we’d get an experienced CB.

Lowdown on Barker:

- Very Quick but limited end product
- Often tries too much but can leave a defender for dead.
- Ok crossing ability.
- Didnt play much for us, more a benchwarmer
- Not a flashy player but very direct.
- Was on loan at Oxford and done very well

Maybe it is a very cheap option that could be used as an impact player off the bench with one eye towards L1 if we do go down (based on his performances for Oxford). Which would actually be pretty decent planning by the club.

Can only assume that a CB is still in the pipeline but is yet to be confirmed yet.

This doesn't really make a great deal of sense, but might do if we go down and we keep him on and we can't keep the likes of Hoilett and/or Halilovic on next season.

I’m sure Vic will be especially happy :lol: Although it was something I repeatedly called for too

Still, if it that’s the end of TDB in that left attacking midfield role, its already a plus point

Need to start preparing for next season following the mass scramble to leave in the summer.

So the manager was apparently leaving but instead we've signed a player?

This season just keeps on giving.

Poor barsteward should get a new agent! Imagine being handed a short term contract here at this time........its like being a stand up comedian at a wake for a couple of murdered kids.
