This is what Holloway said when he arrived "He has got a fantastic work ethic, he gives us an attacking threat, and he has got versatility as well, which is so important in the modern game.”
Our scouts must be absolute garbage, 500k loss on Wheeler will be same amount for Goss and I'm guessing Smyth and Manning (Once Wallace is fit) as well, so much for talent spotting probably a 2m loss in total
 
Anyone think Hugill is going to need any motivation going into the season? I'd recommend Warburton pins this article on his locker before every game.......

He was brought in to add depth to the striking department but one has to believe that he was not thoroughly scouted.
Indeed, if Hugill added anything, it was genuine embarrassment. He has been one of the worst signings in the club’s recent history.
They had better hope QPR take a shine to him and ultimately rid the Irons of their burden.

Pretty big assumption re Smyth and Manning, one on loan to continue his development and the other clearly in the mix for the first team.

I think both will be surplus to requirements under MW. Preferred to see them both and Wheeler given decent runs last sesson

Was our Director of Football in place during these signings?
 
Hugill - bought for £10 mill and played 3 games.
I think that if a club wanted me then they would have played me. Most strikers are confidence players so when a manager does this it is hardly likely to fill you with confidence that your manager believes in you!!
We need to give the boy a chance - after all he has something to prove. After spammers he went to Middlesboro - one might say out of the frying pan into the fire.
Maybe being at a club that wants him will make a difference
 
Please take a look at the squad numbers on the Offy.!!!!

Sorry but I could not find a way to post a link from my phone. Perhaps someone more technically competence could post them on here?

I think that the squad numbers give a very good insight of our potential first team and the thoughts of Mark Warburton..

Leistner and Luongo currently do NOT have squad numbers.

Lumley has kept his no. 13 shirt.

Not a very good read from Hugill's or our perspective. Let's hope that he gets off to a flying start and gains some much needed confidence.
Remember how Sir Les was dismissed and sent out on loan when he was about Hugill's age?
