Charles Vernam hasn't resigned for Bradford, would he make a decent No9?

I would imagine he is going to League One, he came on quite strong towards the end of the year. Last time I checked Bradford were one of the favourites for promotion with Mark Hughes in charge so if he's not wanting to stay there I can't see him coming back to us. Would be nice though.

Shurely Shume Mishtake? It should read 'DESPITE Mark Hughes being in charge!

IMO Vernam is not an out  and out striker, more of a McAtee type player and i dont really see how you could fit both in the side, i feel sure most would say McAtee is the better player, Vernam scores the odd 'worldy' but often goes missing in games, which McAtee doesnt.
Even if he wanted to come back, he would be a no for me, unless McAtee moves up the leagues (which i hope isnt the case)

To be fair to Hughes, he did alright there back end of last season.  Certainly better than I expected him to do so.  

He won't have gone there for shits and giggles, they'll invest heavily this season.

Regards Vernam, he's not a No 9.  He never really looked like a centre forward when he was here, his best work came from the left hand side of attack.  If he was offered to us in that position, I'd drive him back here myself.  As a central striker, I'll pass.  As pointed out though, he ended the season well and imagine he's got bigger suitors lined up...although he's another who is local and by all accounts has desires to remain local.

I think he'd be a strong addition as someone who could play off the left or potentially at 10 when McAtee wasn't available.

Tom Eaves has been released by Hull, IMO he would be a great signing and would bag a hatfull in L2

Just read Vernam's wiki page  

"Vernam was attached to Scunthorpe United as a youth player. In 2012 he was given a six-day trial by Italian giants A.C. Milan, however this did not result in a contract offer and Vernam returned to Scunthorpe"


When Leeds trainer Les Cocker was once told Norman Hunter had broken a leg, he asked: “Whose is it?”

He'd be quality. He'll end up at Wednesday or similar I imagine
