I may be wrong but I’m sure NT said that he had an association with Rob Couhig their owner/chairman.

Attacking midfield player right footed but can play anywhere across the midfield.

If only Harry was down the cafe (it were open) and Roger was at work. We could have this confirmed in a trice.

Not surprised we are after him but l am surprised Wycombe allowed this. Do they have so many good players that can let their 'warrier' go? I can only guess Wycombe's bean counters have forced this in order to stay afloat. I reckon we are one of circling vultures in this.

Looks a good signing on paper. Played in the Championship this season, started a few games - promotion experience in the division above as recently as July. Quite impressed with this.

Do we have enough to form a side completely of right-sided midfielders yet?

Now let's see if Martin Ling has the balls to get rid of his son and bring in a decent right back.

Good stuff. Hopefully this will mean that we see Conor given a run in the middle of the front 3 whilst DJ is out. He’s good enough at beating nippy fullbacks - would love to watch him marmalise this division’s cart horse CBs on the ground.

By all means upgrade the position, but why would we get rid of our best right back when Thomas and Turley are still on the books?

Wycombe forum seems to think he's far too good for this level. Interested to see if he plays as the most attacking of the midfield three as opposed to being yet another winger/inside forward type player. Seeing as we can struggle to break teams down when they sit deep (like Morecambe on Saturday), would be great to have a playmaker who can make things happen.

Yep, that's exactly the sort of role I was hoping he could play. Means we're hopefully also not so reliant on McAnuff for creativity.

Good signing. Hoping Ross doesn’t stick him out on the wing. We are desperate for more creativity in the middle. I know Clay is well liked but he is seriously limited IMO.

Freeman looks a decent signing, but the negative side is, every mid-fielder we bring in, pushes Hector down the pecking order. I cant see him starting now.....maybe a few appearances from the bench, but not much more than that

Disagree, he is doing well where he is, cutting in on that left foot.
