Fair enough. Do you think Sinclair is the answer then?

Depends on the question. Is he the answer to being our new main striker? No. Is he a very cheap low risk option to be a back-up for Taylor, Baldock and ideally one other? Maybe.

Maybe this isn’t the time to suggest we all meet for a pint?

Out of Sinclair, Jones & Barker.. I’d say Barker is the only one who I’d of been happy with as an acceptable signing.

The days are gone of shopping for players like Sinclair/Jones I think. We are no longer a L2 club ran by Lenegan.

I'm game, it would be interesting. Me, Kip and Leysboy in the corner drowning our sorrows, ScotchEgg getting the Jaegers in checking the odds for us to get promoted, Ryanio drawing a cock on the darts chalkboard.

Not sure that Brandon Barker is a great example to use of a player that really stuck it to the naysayers, given he played just 22 minutes of football at Reading and has now gone to a mid-table team in the Cypriot league.

Re Jerome Sinclair, he’s apparently opening a fried chicken franchise in Birmingham. I am not even kidding. It’s your lucky day @greatunclekip

Man, you always deliver the goods. Answers my question about what he’s been doing

If they open on a Tuesday night or Saturday afternoon he’ll be very “busy” then!

You know I earlier said I would give up if he rocked up. Can I just shock you? I love Jerome Sinclair

Working on his secret recipe?

 

[holdsteady]

I actually want us to sign him now, imagine if we all get free fried chicken buckets at JFC? I mean with the cost of petrol and the drive to Birmingham it will cost me a wedge but I can’t turn down free stuff.

Can anyone confirm the Findlay deal is still a goer. Seems ok. Vital for us to keep more clean sheets next season

Reported as hitting a stumbling block!!

 

[Yellowarmy]

Yes, just confirming that this is rubbish

Hopefully, in desperate need of his services.

 

[pidge]

With Findlay being in the US it isn’t as easy as just turning up for a medical and signing documents . He’ll have to pack up all his things and move before signing because it isn’t like he can return anytime soon like a player who is located in the Uk. This transfer was always going to take a bit longer.

 

[Yellowarmy]

I was thinking, presumably, he would also return to Scotland 1st to sort a few things. Vital signing for me.

 

[westyorkshireexile]

Strikes me as a similar situation to Sam Smith. When on loan from Reading, didn't look as though he would score as long as he had a hole in his backside. Look at him now for Cambridge, 15 goals and looked very dangerous when he played against us.
Who can tell?

Sam Smith was a young lad on an early career loan.

Sinclair isn’t.

 

[Yellows1]

I was talking about bringing 3 or 4 in within the next week. I agree that we need plenty more than that.

Sure thing
