On the fence regards the player himself but good to see sought targets actually being acquired.

Quoted from Roast Em Bobby
Was hoping we'd get a taller winger as I'm still a bit worried worried about a lack of height in forward areas, if crosses come in from either side our forwards/wingers coming in at the back post all seem relatively small

Vernan - 1.7m
Khan - 1.75m
Eisa - 1.8m
Wilson 1.8m
Rose - 1.73m
Orsi - 1.88m

Plus our midfielders who get forward are also all sub 6ft as well
Holoham, Clifton (maybe Hunt)

Looks like we are going to have to be pacey and play it on the deck to get most of our goals


No way is Orsi 1.88m
Wikipedia must be wrong. Look at a squad photo he’s the same height as Efete - who is shown as 1.83m.

I’m sure your view from the council house puts you in a great position to comment on Vernam.

That said, I’m not overwhelmed by this signing, it’s decent but that is all.


I forgot to mention injury prone too … a 3yr contract is very generous, you must have money to burn?

Wikipedia is often wrong as anyone can add anything they wish to a players profile.

I can’t figure out if I’m excited about this signing or it’s just a solid player.

It feels like Vernam has improved at town whilst he’s been away. No doubt a talent but is he remembered more fondly as being a shining light along a steaming turd of a football club?


Don't think he got better being away, that 5 game purple patch showed he had potential far greater than L2. The rest of his time here suggested it was likely to be unrealised potential.

He's better than we had last season, but I  expect more of the Vernam that drifted mostly out of games than anything else. He wouldn't be here otherwise

Have we signed the lifelong Grimsby supporting Vernam or the lifelong Lincoln supporting Vernam?


According to his old mates from Caistor Grammar, he always supported Scunny! Anyway, who cares, he seemed to love scoring against them that time at Swann Stadium.

I thought you would be in a better mood to be honest, with your club lifting the treble and all that (not Lincoln, obviously).

Pleased with this signing.  His brilliant goal at Colchester shows his potential.
