Southend have said they need to get rid of Akinola to bring him in. I'd probably take Akinola here now to be honest given the striker situation, but would be very annoying essentially letting Southend have an upgrade.

Seems that the location will be the show-stopper here. Shame as he would have been a great addition I think.

I thought the whole idea of such deals was to keep them quiet....using neon envelopes kind of defeats the object 😄


They’d match his face…

Steve Evans has confirmed out chairman has spoken to the gills about his availability bit doesn't think it will happen...



Akinde had a fairly underwhelming spell at Lincoln having been injured at Barnet for quite a while.  And he hasn’t exactly set Gillingham alight.  

He may do a job in the National League but his last good season was 2016/17.

Would be a great addition, let's hope Hurst can still persuade him to put pen to paper.


Good lord, he's horrendous* .... although he takes a mean penalty.

I say horrendous, I suppose he did a job, but he's painful to watch at times. Title wins are rare (I've seen 4 by the Imps in my lifetime) but Big John will never be mentioned in the same breath as Freeman, McGinley and Rhead.

We don't need to sign has beens, spend big on a proven goal scorer from a foreign lower  league.

John Ward - Lincolnshire Poacher 91 goals in 240 games - I think we'd snap your hand off if we were offered a player with that strike rate...

That's two more title wins than we've had in my lifetime - is that 2 X Conference and 2 X 4th Division?

He was frustrating to watch at times for Lincoln and certainly doesn't close down like you would expect a Hurst forward to do.
