A gamble. This forum was rabid all summer for an experienced striker to be signed, and the Club did what they could to satisfy that.Malabus wrote:Vassell, we will be lucky if he plays 25% of the season...is he really worth the wage?

Meanwhile George Lloyd gets fifteen minutes a match at Port Vale.That seemed a good idea at the time too. Vassell is excellent when he plays but seems to have missed a lot of games in recent years. Hopefully he will get going and contribute. Time for Williams to be the recall hero.
Fair enough to point out Vassell but Raglan,Hussey and Boyle all teeter on the edge of breaking down.

Not really, even their fans at the time were saying he wouldn't get much game time as he would be probably 4th choice when their other strikers were all fit. And MD surely knew that. As much as he says about it's good for GL's development, I think he just needed someone else to pay (part of) his wages.horlickfanclub wrote:Meanwhile George Lloyd gets fifteen minutes a match at Port Vale.That seemed a good idea at the time too.
If Williams is recalled, then he needs to do much better when he played against Preston. He did not win one header throughout the whole time he was on the pitch.horlickfanclub wrote:Meanwhile George Lloyd gets fifteen minutes a match at Port Vale.That seemed a good idea at the time too.

Perry, Vassell and Joseph are decent at L1 level. Tuesday’s game is not the basis to judge them on.Nesty wrote:I said in the close season that any signings we made especially in relation to strikers had to be better than what we had. I just hope that our two young loan players come good.
