McBurnie said: “I’m buzzing. It’s been a long time coming. Everyone has worked really hard to get to this point. A big thank you to Jared (Dublin), the owner and the manager for getting it done. “Jared spoke to me at the end of last season. I was in Spain last year, and from the start, I said to Jared that for me to come back to England, it had to be something special. “I needed to come back for something that excites me, and at the same time, is right for me and my family. “There’s something to be said for a team and a manager that really wants you. When I spoke to the manager, the first thing he said to me was, ‘Can you score me 15 goals?’ “I’ve come in as more of an experienced player. I’ll try to use my experience to help some of the younger boys in that leadership role. I’ll put myself about, make it hard for defenders and chip in with some goals. “I don’t think I’ve ever known so many players going into a club! I’m excited to play with some old friends and some new ones as well. I can’t wait to get out there on the training pitch and get in front of the fans.”
Next door neighbour said he was having his medical this afternoon... Welcome Oli...All the best at HCAFC.
Great signing. Expensive! But great signing. I've put £100 on us to win the league with a 32 point headstart at 20/1 on Bet365.
Terry is a great fella...He seems to know what's happening well before its announced. Never wrong yet. He must be on the bat phone to someone at the club.
I like many others must be hoping all players start the season with a clean sheet, the manager (head coach) can instill a team ethos (I think he can), and the squad are prepared to die for each other (and us). There's a long way to go until the window closes but I'm looking forward to Saturday at the moment. We know some will not be making an appearance just yet (McBurnie?) Still a bit too game showy with the announcements for my liking. Looking forward to a rousing chorus of 'mauled'.
Top 6 finish on sky bet 15/2 and to be promoted 18/1..... Both good value imo Just waiting to see where Oli drops in odds wise for top scorer
