    Looks like we're about to sign Scott Sinclair as a free agent. It's in the Bristol Post and other sources - a homecoming for the local lad and he's only 33.

    As we only really have Jasper as an out and out winger, I reckon Scott, if fit, could do a good job for us - what do you guys think?

    Amazing signing. Hopefully he'll stay for the whole season.

    Yes, he's got a short-term deal until January so here's hoping he does well and stays with us until at least next summer.

    These are the goals from Preston, which show that he's still an amazing talent. Look out for the 40 yard lob v Bournemouth...

    A few of those will not go amiss in the next few games!! Some cracking finishes in that video.

    He's been training with Chelsea to build up his fitness before joining us a few weeks ago. Match fitness shouldn't be much of an issue.

    If he starts on the bench on Saturday and we are still in the game when he comes on, I'd imagine he would lift the crowd a lot. Could make a massive difference.

    Sinclair had a good effort on goal in the second half. He's going to be brilliant when he's up to speed. Evans' free kick in the second half is worth a look too.

    These are the Derby version of the highlights - 15 mins rather than 2. The defending was a shocker, but the finishing was pretty smart.

    Hopefully Sinclair will start against Rochdale in the Cup on Saturday - looking forward to seeing him get up to speed and showing us what he can do. He'll bring quality and experience for sure, just need to get him some game time and keep him fit.
