malek Posted September 2, 2015 Share Posted September 2, 2015 I know people expected big money striker signing with us, but why taking it out on this deal. Signing talented fella proven in very physical non League in hope that we can improve him can only be a good news. We shouldnt neglect academy and development squads now we have bit of money to spend. After all the good work we did in order to start producing and developing young talent, it would be a huge step backwards. Btw. He impressed in friendly game last week, and apparently scored great goal. Welcome to SWFC and good luck Tom. Btw. Kivo, I would love to hear if you could write bit more about this player.

g-owls Posted September 2, 2015 Share Posted September 2, 2015 Who knows, he could end up making the club money. I've nothing against the club bringing in good young local players. What's to lose? Stuart Pearce, Ian Wright and Antonio all came from the non-leagues. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
malek Posted September 3, 2015 Share Posted September 3, 2015 Anyone knows if we signed this guy, is he still on trial, or what ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wolfmanjack Posted September 3, 2015 Share Posted September 3, 2015 Carl Shutt......or am I being whooooshed? He wasn't from a local side, he played for Spalding United, and was someone Howard Wilkinson knew and remembered, from when he managed at non league level.

I didn't say he was. I was just guessing at who he was trying to remember the name of. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Inspector Lestrade Posted September 3, 2015 Share Posted September 3, 2015 Who was that other lad who played for us? I think he had been a binman at one point. Was it something Walker? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

M Royds Posted September 3, 2015 Share Posted September 3, 2015 Tom Elliot - is he the one from Radiohead or McFly?No, he the Orange MP for Fermanagh and South Tyrone.Beastly fellow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wolfmanjack Posted September 3, 2015 Share Posted September 3, 2015 Colin - and yes he used to be a binman. In the Star at the time, Howard Wilkinson announced that we'd be signing a defender from a foreign club, and World Cup striker. We promptly signed the donkey, Kenny Brannigan from some Scottish team, and Colin Walker who somehow managed to play for New Zealand in the World Cup.
