Hopefully can do some of the legwork up front and save Marriotts legs.
Should be a good addition.
Slightly worried that despite being from Halifax he has only 2 apperances at Bradford both in the EFL Trophy, not sure if that counts.

Are we sure Leam is being consulted on these signings?

Yes, we have to ensure that any new signings have played at Valley Parade in the past.

Looks like he was playing most games before the spell at Luton

Guess that’s what you end up in this league; any quality player will have some caveat to them

Every transfer thread not only got ‘I’d rather have’ but also the ‘has he played at Bradford’ jokes attached now? Great.

its genrally SDR that does the 'i'd rather have' posts, which are extremley annoying perhaps hes thinks hes being funny. hes the worst poster on the board though so its to be expected. He offers nothing of value to any thread its a winder why he continues to post, i might ust start deleting his posts from now on

Encouraged by reading that he’s very good at pressing. Something we massively lacked last year, we were generally terrible at it

I hope not!
If he is the comedy level of Mrs. Browns Boys we are in trouble.
However Leam = Miranda!

Think it’s a straight whelm rather than an over or an under.
Agreed spot on

As for player, yeah, had to look him up. Looks fine, no inside knowledge. He any good?

Ah yes two more crackers. Guess some sort of logic with the first but the second is as bad as the Bradford/Rather ones

Rather have Doc Brown.

But I don't know if Doc Brown has played at Bradford or played for Leam. Guess I'll have to ask AI.

If we can get a list together we can submit them to the chap who does the welcome interview and he can slot them in so we won't need to ask them again on here

That would actually be quite funny. Once anyway, not every single transfer from now to the end of time

The trouble with typefaces -

Is it Al (AY EY) or AI (AY EL, short for Alan)?

Reminds me of the joke:

What is ET short for?
Little legs

You can blame the Bradford one on Richardson.

Decent signing.

I've seen him with Scotland and he'll certainly be able to help with defending from the front; moving into channels; etc. Can play as a striker; a wide forward; and an attacking midfielder.

Maybe Harvey Knibbs is the most similar player we've had to him in recent seasons (in terms of what he does on the pitch anyway).

28
injured a lot
Non-scoring striker

This sounds liked Leam's ideal signing.
