John McAtee & Jon Nolan deemed lazy and useless.. I'll wish him the very best of luck before writing him off and hope that he goes from strength to strength with us. Welcome aboard.

When we make signings that look like this on paper on deadline day, thats when I worry, when we snatch them up this early on, thats when I think hurst is onto something

However some of the more educated ones pointed out that he could be decent in League 2 under the right guidance. We all know how that turned out. The same could be said for Pyke. Maybe dropping down a level will be just the move to find some consistency and confidence.

Just worried about the length of the contract which I think is a pretty valid concern. It's policy to offer 2 year contracts "were possible" now, they have said the idea is that gives players who have been identified as potentially successful (which is why we've signed them) the best chance to be successful as the longer contract enables them to relax and concentrate on football. That's the idea anyway. We will just have to see if it works and how often mistakes are made requiring payoffs.
