Quoted from Poojah


I only realised at the very end of the video that it wasn’t from the fanless, Covid season.


I think it's from a pre season game at Ilkeston.

Quite excited by this one, it's great to see so many positive moves in the transfer market so soon in the close season.

Exciting times!

Be good to see him linking up with Hunt - a more mobile frontline should bring the best out of him & his passing/vision.

Another one we can't fathom - South London to Grimsby. I've never heard anything as unrealistic.

Where will he live, what about his social life and how will he cope ( being a young man and all that) from being so far away from a big city?

It did not work out for Chesterfield when they putt all their eggs in one basket with one top striker.
Spreading the goals around the team is a far better approach and less of a risk.

You've got to remember the owners had a video made to send to prospective players highlighting all the good bits of the 'Meggies Riviera', it's clearly a very good film!

It's even more impressive when you consider that Donovan Wilson is the only footballer in the whole of the UK who is moving clubs this summer.

A Sutton fan we know says this about him:

"Good on his day but they were too few and far between. Might do well with a new challenge as he may have gone a bit stake with us and the way we played.
He is useful at shielding the ball on the ground one on one and can turn players,  but tends to go it alone rather than bringing others into play."

Also said Donovan is not much good in the air so whacking it up to him won't work, but he seems a likeable bloke.

We have had a few Donovans playing for us over the years.

If you are as good as them you will do for me lad.

Heard that he was too mellow in the yellow of Sutton, but that he's quick enough to catch the wind.
