Everton interested too.. That''s us out again then

All it is basically is the Daily Star ( yeah I know I thought the same thing ) allowing his no mark Jock agent to big his man up. Blimey we are apparently competing with the mighty Bolton Wanderers and Sheff Wed.

A Gambian forward playing in the Swedish second division. Sounds wonderful.

Omar Koroma, what ever happened to him? Hmm, according to Wiki he was the first ever Gambian player to be signed by a Premier League club, but has since been released by Forest Green rovers and is unattached. Also according to Wiki, he has never scored a professional goal in his career!

Remind me which well-above-board and not possibly dodgy manager signed him for the Premier League club in question?

Saw in one source that Modou is currently on trial at Bolton, so let''s not get our hopes up.

does not sound too different from the much loved lafferty being a northern irish forward playing in the italian second division to me

Looks like he has a fair amount of pace, skill and strength from this video:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FhEf4A6SPiEWould be an unknown quantity for sure, but looks like the kind of player with the potential to be devastating from the bench against tiring legs. Thing is, though, unless we''re buying proven quality, mightn''t we as well invest the playing time in the development of Loza and/or Morris?

[ZLF 335]

any purchase should be on the basis of being better than we already have...

if he has that potential (inc loza) why not sign him?
