Scapegoat Posted February 15, 2016 Share Posted February 15, 2016 1 in 5 at this level. Doesn't set the pulse racing, but then I think we are deluded to think we will get a 1 in 2, 1 in 3 striker. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scapegoat Posted February 15, 2016 Share Posted February 15, 2016 Young, 6 ft 1in, and had enough in the past to be described as follows by Tony Mowbray: "came here on trial and trained with the youth team and you could see the power and speed he's got. His finishing with both feet is breathtaking at times. Whether the ball drops to his right foot or left foot, he doesn't hesitate. ... Physicality isn't going to be an issue for Curtis throughout his career. He's a boy who spends a lot of time looking after his physique and he's very, very strong." All positive traits and young enough to think he has not yet made the best of them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SavageTheBeast Posted February 15, 2016 Share Posted February 15, 2016 Don't know much about him but hopefully he's decent. I think we need to offload a forward very soon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
josh_latics Posted February 15, 2016 Share Posted February 15, 2016 Don't know much about him but hopefully he's decent. I think we need to offload a forward very soon Holloway/Main/Cassidy all sound like similar (ish) players. Maybe a loan away somewhere for Cassidy so he can go and not score for someone else.

adamoafc Posted February 15, 2016 Share Posted February 15, 2016 Think this could be a very good signing for us. Shez has got it spot on so far so I'm not complaining Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Could be a player that matures and finds himself doing well...or not. Read enough to be more excited about this than Holt / Ameobi Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SavageTheBeast Posted February 15, 2016 Share Posted February 15, 2016 We need all the options we can get. I know but someone is going to be upset not making the team out of Poleon/Cassidy/Murphy/Forte/Holloway/Main Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We can finally utilise them on the wing with options up top. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gaz_Oafc Posted February 15, 2016 Share Posted February 15, 2016 The Doncaster fans used to think he was :censored:ing :censored:e, he'd get panned on their forum all the time. No idea if he's improved or not Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crusoe Posted February 15, 2016 Share Posted February 15, 2016 (edited) Weren't we linked with signing him years ago? Maybe in the Penney era? Edit: unlikely, he'd have been 17 then. Edited February 15, 2016 by Crusoe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gaz_Oafc Posted February 15, 2016 Share Posted February 15, 2016 http://www.drfc-vsc.co.uk/index.php?topic=255811.0 Doesnt sound like their opinions on him have changed.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scapegoat Posted February 15, 2016 Share Posted February 15, 2016 1 in 3 starts reads better. The DR forum doesn't. Could substitute anyone of around a dozen Latics forwards' names into that thread and pop it on here. Sometimes a change of scenery is required. How many hopeless forwards at BP have gone on to have decent goal scoring records? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NewBlue Posted February 15, 2016 Share Posted February 15, 2016 Remember him being a nuisance with no end product in a 2-2 draw at BP a year or two back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The list is endless of players that move on after being rendered useless by their current clubs fans and go on to do well. Not least from our club.
