We've had him in quarantine for a fortnight, started training yesterday.   

A while since we signed someone from Aberdeen 😊

Douglas McNeil just tweeted new striker coming in you could be right

That would be rather underwhelming.

Chat of potentially getting our hands on an up and coming Dutch wonderboy turns into signing a 30 year old journeyman from the lower reaches of the English league. 
Sam Parkin anyone?

Most probably thought the same about Sam Foley. 
 

Could be another inspirational signing by Jim.

Goalscoring record last season was actually very impressive.

Seems to enjoy being an impact player.

14 goals in under 1600 minutes on the park means a goal every one and a quarter matches.

[truesaint 437]

1 year deal. Better with sound down.

Aye right enough, On official site. 

[djchapsticks 9,212]

Scoring record is pretty decent.

Rather have the journeyman than the apprentice.

Someone's been playing funny buggers with his Wiki page mate. His stats are nowhere near that. 

He's still at least 1 in 3 striker over the course of his career, though.

Has someone chopped some of his goals off.

He seems to be able to head a ball which got me thinking, who was our last C/F that was decent in the air ?  

[scam75 435]

Been a while. Sam Parkin was ok. Basher or Yards before that. This is the first year we've been a threat from set plays into the box for donkeys.

Thommo was pretty decent in the air also.

Could be, here’s hoping. My point was more around it being a slightly less exciting signing/prospect.

Only if the journeyman is better than the apprentice. Would you rather have had the apprentice Ronaldinho or the journeyman Callum Ball? Extreme example I know, but just designed to make my point (and of course discredit yours 😘)

Fair dos insaintee. I myself didnae.

Yes, we’ll have all of those and some more besides please Kristian.

Oh aye, forgot Thommo

So did i      

So certainly a few years since we had a striker that appears to be decent in the air.

[ALBIONSAINT 1,608]

Proven goal scorer from lower league, wasn’t Gavin Reilly and Danny Mullen proven goal scorers ? Time will tell I suppose. 

[paisleysaint1973 198]

KD must be some striker if we need to posts running for him this isa speculation thread last i looked wechad signed him so not speculative anymore
