A good player - and the right age to want to make a good impression so hopefully he will do well here.

But it is a knee jerk signing - we are in a relegation battle so sign a defender to shore us up (well actually our goals against column isnt too bad). 

Our real problems are all in midfield - balancing attack with defence,  winning and retaining the ball,  any spark of creativity.

Start to resolve that one and we have a chance of surviving...

Hucks could talk Saffers into coming back and Earnshaw must be fed up with sitting on the bench [:D]

 

Just joking!!

Earnshaw''s where he belongs

A good start to the Roeder era.

Strengthen the defence. Now, see how easy that was Grant?

All we need now is Smith and Brellier to click.

also we need our Strikers and Att midfielders to find the net a few times a game, and were climbing up this God Forsaken League.

Great Signing.  Roeder has started well.

I can''t believe the amount of people sniping at Grant because of this signing.

Can''t you just move on? Starting with getting behind the boys on Sunday...

we need Safri back desperately (he is only on loan isn''t he?), what are the rules in recalling him back to us, anyone know?

Youssef Safri was sold outright to Southampton this August.

Broadie, pipe down!!!! I have read all these posts and know one is having a proper snipe at PG, but in all fairness you have to ask the question why he didn’t bring any one in…….. we were all crying out for a CH all summer.

Sorry, my bad!!  I was convinced it was a loan because it happened so fast.

Looks like a great signing.  Hopefully we''ve finally got a defender to replace Malky.

I am so hoping for a midfielder today! It also looks like Roeder has prioritised a left back and his comments today about Lappin point to him not being happy to play players out of position. Good start!

I agree with West One (&Hucks),  we need Safri back desperately (he is only on loan isn''t he?), what are the rules in recalling him back to us, anyone know?  Without a decent midfield who can close players down, it wouldn''t matter if we had Bowen, Culverhouse, Watson & Bruce (in their primes!!) in defence. You can''t defend and squeeze teams up the field from your 18 yard box.

On a positive note though, great signing Glenn, like everyone has already said it''s only taken 3 seasons to realise it!
