A lot of business needs to be done but think this one could be a very astute signing, especially on a free. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Philb125 Posted August 13, 2020 Share Posted August 13, 2020 Hold on I’m confused. I’d given up hope after many seasoned posters on here told us we could forget about signing anyone if other clubs were in for him? We could forget if Watford were in. That no one would come with us on minus12. Does this mean the negativity was unwarranted and we can begin to get excited again for the season ahead?

SiJ Posted August 13, 2020 Share Posted August 13, 2020 We have been missing a physical edge for a while. Sounds like he could very much bring that. Him and Iorfa could form quite the combative pair. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hope that leg has healed nicely and won’t be a weak spot. The bone in most cases grows stronger Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WalthamOwl Posted August 13, 2020 Share Posted August 13, 2020 Bitter Wigan fans already saying he can’t defend and is no good on the ball and they only started playing well when he was out the team 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HOOTIE AND THE SHIT TU Posted August 13, 2020 Share Posted August 13, 2020 I hope he's the new Reda Just a bloke, who used up all his luck in one go when he met his wife. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Owls-Fan Posted August 13, 2020 Share Posted August 13, 2020 One of the good things about this is our points deduction and form of last season hasn’t put off a decent championship player. Despite interest from elsewhere. Hopefully a sign of things to come 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The way I see it is, if we offer a reasonable and competitive (not silly) then we've got a chance of getting some half decent players in. Given the current climate, players/agents can't be too choosy. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bluesteel Posted August 13, 2020 Share Posted August 13, 2020 (edited) We haven’t signed a centre half accustomed to this league since Tom Lees joined have we? Iorfa converted comfortably but signed as a full back. Sasso, Venancio, Van Aken, Borner have all come in from overseas because centre halves who have done ok never mind well in this league can cost a few million pounds. So I think there are real positives with this move and it’s something we’ve ignored. Even without a deduction I’d have been happy with it as this is the kind of signing a club looking for the playoffs would be making, IMO. We could’ve easily looked north of the border or abroad again or hoped someone from leagues one or two can step up.

Road Runner Posted August 13, 2020 Share Posted August 13, 2020 Two big powerful players signed. Exactly what we have been missing for years, glad a manager is finally seeing what we need. So far so good. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sgt Wednesday Posted August 13, 2020 Share Posted August 13, 2020 Very good bit of business, happy. I have always thought we could do with a player similar, big, powerful CB. Attacks the ball very well, with Iorfa's pace next to him it could be a very strong pairing. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
