    Can't help but be excited by a new signing! Especially a striker!! I'm buzzing to see him in the team.

    On the plus side if he is a total disaster we have a perfect name for him straight away, Carillon

    How would people feel if he was our only signing?

    I'd be okay.. he is the sorely sought out striker we need.
    Although id rather us sign a CB also.

    Extremely miffed, one signing and the same Manager is sailing too close to the wind IMO and Les Reed will have to answer some serious questions if we are ultimately relegated.

    I still think I'd prefer another forward player to a CB tbh.

    Yeah, preferably one with pace in the £25-30m bracket...

    Agreed, would stink of trying to do 'just enough' for me.

    The main concern I have is that this guy is obviously a Pellegrino signing, and if we lose on Wednesday then surely the board must be really thinking of making a change at manager. But you have to back the manager while he's here and I'd suggest that this signing shows that we are going to stick with Pellegrino til the end of the season unless we really get cut adrift.

    If we really get cut adrift it will probably be too late looking at the fixtures.

    Well yeah, my point being that it is survive with Pellegrino or go down with him. We aren't going to be changing manager to keep us up it would appear.

    There is absolutely no excuse for not spending all of the VVD money available to us in this transfer window, we said he was not for sale at the start of the season , so this is "extra" money not budgeted for, No reason at all that it shouldn't be reinvested into the squad in January.

    I agree.

    Infact even though I want him gone I would be absolutely baffled if we sacked him after a defeat to Brighton.

    Oh come on. Is this a "I got pissed and shagged Angela Rudd and now MI5 want to kill me" amazing? No? Your wife been cast in a remake of "Fatal Attraction" so you've sold the kids' rabbit? You can't do this to us. I'll fret about it now, and stop worrying about who we are going to sign.

    So let's get this straight. No ambiguity. We sack him and we're ****ed. We don't sack him and we're ****ed.

    Great.
