Watching the vid, I like that he gets in the box and scores all those goals from close. A striker's instinct. But obviously the standard is much lower. Interesting to see if we do take a punt. Wouldn't be surprised if he's allowed to stay there for the 1st round of Champions League qualification (2nd leg is July 19th), maybe even 2nd qualifying round too (2nd leg August 2nd) so that he doesn't miss out on playing in Europe. They're unlikely to go further than that based on how Linfield usually do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

May Contain Nuts Posted June 25, 2023 Share Posted June 25, 2023 (edited) Not too sure on this guy. Keep seeing him described as "Lame striker, Lee Bonis" which is a bit off-putting! Let's hope he can improve under Paul Wame. Edited June 25, 2023 by Kokosnuss Carl Sagan 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Get him to sign a contract from a date but let him play in them games! Could do us a favour before he even joins us, value Could rocket or just be how he is Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we are in a transfer window, which we are, the move would be immediate, or you’d wait before agreeing. DiggerB and Elwood P Dowd 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

abertawe_ram Posted June 25, 2023 Share Posted June 25, 2023 In the northern Ireland manager's chat about him he mentions workrate quite a lot and that he's an ideal forward for leading the press from the front. Sounds like something Warne would appreciate. Can't help thinking of Shane Long from what I've heard/seen and I'd be very happy if we got him and he had anything like that type of career!! Maybe worth a gamble at 300k Comrade 86 and Carnero 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Billy Caskey and Vic Moreland - the horror! But I remembered back then we were in the top flight and should not have been fishing in that lake, but now we're in the third division, so it seems more appropriate.

Gee SCREAMER !! Posted June 25, 2023 Share Posted June 25, 2023 Regarding strikers. I'm pretty sure we need some cash in before we can get one that involves a fee. As I've mentioned before If you've spent 50 million paying someone else's bar bill of the best champers your not getting another round in. Hopefully we shift our Polish superstar nobody wants for enough to pay what's left of his fee as a starter. Not even sure what the loosening of transfers dealings means. We may be allowed to pay fees but only spend what's brought in.? bimmerman 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As a little kid, I remember that I used to pretend to be Billy Caskey when I played football on my front lawn… I told my dad about that a few years ago.
