wozz_oafc Posted August 6, 2009 Share Posted August 6, 2009 I have a feeling he maybe able to play CB too. He was part of Plymouths promotion side to the Championship that we despatched 4 - 1 at BP. He has since played all his (albeit very few) games at that level, shrewd signing? Better pedigree than Lomax I feel. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Better pedigree than Lomax I feel. Bigger squads in the Champ means chances can be more limited, oh and JJ's been playing LB for Weds in the last couple of years. What does that say though?

What does that say though? JJ was playing on the wing for them this preseason vs Hull that I sadly got taken to see. I sometimes wonder if we might have benefited from not playing him as a striker, to say he couldnt shoot would be an understatement Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NIKI1234 Posted August 6, 2009 Share Posted August 6, 2009 Replacement for Eardley? He is a left back Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
opinions4u Posted August 6, 2009 Share Posted August 6, 2009 He is a left back I recall reading that Jacobsen has played more than his fair share of games at right back. There doesn't seem to be much logic in signing another full back unless somebody is on their way out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

leeslover Posted August 6, 2009 Share Posted August 6, 2009 We're going to form a circle and perform the 'hokey-cokey' on any breakaway striker. I've seen a monks chain on the internet, I hope a fullbacks circle isn't anything similar Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NIKI1234 Posted August 6, 2009 Share Posted August 6, 2009 A little odd hes chosen to join us having been at Coventry and Southend perhaps thinks more chance of winning a perm deal. Again like the fact DP saying prove your worth. They might not have offered him a deal. Might have been on trial but not impressed... Anyway its an improvement on Lomax i am sure Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gaz_Oafc Posted August 6, 2009 Share Posted August 6, 2009 Had (unsuccesful) trials with Coventry (played centre half against everton and was crap), Huddersfield, Leyton Orient and Southend. Sheff Wednesday fans desperatly wanted coventry to sign him so they got relegated and think he's only good enough for league 2 max! (not my opinion, all taken from sheff wednesday forum) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

oafcprozac Posted August 6, 2009 Author Share Posted August 6, 2009 I am, hence the last line of my post Spot on, I trust my mate's assessment of him and reckons he's a decent signing, that'll do for me and I'll make my own mind up when I see him playing at BP.
