I hope he's more successful for them than the last ex-GTFC thing that went their way.


Edit: I was talking about Slade - forgot Josh Gowling was now in charge.

That's quite some drop for him from League 1 down to NLN level.

On paper a great signing, but I've no idea how fit he is these days.

(Also I've just realised that it's nearly half a decade since I last saw him play)

Josh Gowling is in temporary charge there so obviously he persuaded him (he was out of contract anyway and I can't imagine there was a queue for his services)

Failed fitness test at Scunny but Hurst still wanted to sign him.

Maybe he has an injury that will not go away  but he can still play at that level.

Is it 3 ACL's he's suffered from?

Incredible character to come back from those.

Had his critics whilst here but I loved his work-rate and the way he led the line.  No doubt we upgraded on a frontman when we brought Amond in but there's plenty of occasions since we've been back in the league that I'd have had a 2014/15 LJL leading our line...

I've never seen a player with such prodigious workrate which (in my view), more than made up for his failings in other areas during his time at the club. With the injuries he's suffered in recent years, I'd imagine he wouldn't be able to continue in that manner any longer so he's probably a much weaker player than he once was. Surprised to see he's only 30 so he obviously knows his career is winding down now.

Gave us that memorable early moment at Wembley which could have ended oh so differently if Ross "Bleeding" Joyce had had the bottle to send off their keeper not long after.
