Now stop moaning Russ. I said I'd get you a new striker if I had to carry him here myself and here he is.

Every player we sign gets labelled as sh1t by their former fans. If we have signed Hooper, then we'll see what he has to offer. Would be great if he scored the winner against Vale, finishing a cross from Kelly.

Pretty much every player in the bottom 2 divisions has been released by a club at some point so will have one set of former supporters who won't exactly speak highly of them.

It's about our Slade's ability to man-manage and get the best out of said player. And i think that's something Slade is good at. So I'm confident Slade could get more out of a player that's not realised their potential previously.

And if you don't believe in man management then you won't believe how Rotherham ended up in LG 1

No idea what is happening but Tyler Walker didnt make the bench for Forest's opening fixture.

IF it is to be JJ Hooper then seems a bit odd that it hasnt been tied up yet. RS said about the player must want to be here but with Hooper on trial it would seem strange if he was hesitating.

Who knows

One of the most exciting strikers in an age is already in the building in Ahkeem
Rose. Once this kid gets his chance following international clearance, which he will, then he is going to be one of the best finds in an age as strikers go.

He is absolutely rapid and is a superb finisher. Handled correctly then Ahkeem
Rose is going to be a massive fans favourite

Why would Rose need international clearance? Hasnt he been with us for months on a pro deal?

Because he was born in Jamaica. Yes he signed a pro contract because of his age, even though he was only playing youth / reserve football. But whilst he wasn't in the reckoning for first team football, international clearance wasn't an issue. But I understand that now he is a serious consideration this season for first team squad consideration, that under FA & EFL regs we have to go through an international clearance procedure. It is a formality and will happen, but can take a bit of time.

Going to be a super player though in my opinion
