Sounds like an exciting player in looking forward to seeing him play. Good depth now.

Slightly concerning he’s had 11 clubs and he’s 28 but I trust Richie to get the best out of him

As with other League 1 players no idea how good he is aside from the highlights so we shall see on Saturday and beyond. Glad we have some cover out wide now. Comments from fans on Twitter sound positive though.

Striker time next though I'd be (pleasantly) surprised if that gets sorted before Saturday

Happy with RW being happy with this signing.
I’m happy if your happy that Richie is happy🙊

Luckily some of you are not our manager otherwise we'd never sign anyone.
Now come on Dave don’t think this is a bad signing it’s just we need a number 9 and I think that’s what people are hoping for,but I think we will? Bosch🙊

The only problem we have is in Jordan’s interview he states on more than one occasion he has had no pre-season and will need some time to get up to speed, which is not ideal when, Dan Agyei now out for 5 months.
Looks like we will be playing with Theo and Pegrum as wingers (who correct me if I am wrong are both left wingers)?
Feeding Piggott who will play as a no.9, but is a no.10, as we don’t have a no.9.
Can’t wait for start of season

Desperate signing.

The squad was looking light on Jordan's. Glad this has been rectified.

It does seem as if we've had to take some chances with the forward players. Players that have potential but for whatever reason haven't fulfilled it. Presumably Richie backs his man management skills to get the necessary out of these boys...

I trust our recruitment, signings have been spot on this season, so I am sure Jordan Graham will be a good signing, but he is not match fit and had no pre-season, which with the situation we find ourselves in, with no forwards due to injuries, is not ideal.
In RW we trust.
Now let’s get a No.9!

Ok but we're still one striker short up front . At the moment our striker options couldn't punch it's way out of a wet paper bag .

I think pigot will score goals but will he score enough? People are forgetting we have other players in the team and let’s face it we really didn’t have a 9 last season and yet we did ok and they chipped in with goals. Pigot imo is an upgrade on last season,is he a fox in the box,probably not? Also everyone is assuming that we will play 433 and looking at the team strength again imo it’s in midfield so perhaps Richie will use a different formation? No good trying to fit square pegs in round holes. However we could do with a decent 9 no question and personally I don’t think we have enough in the kitty? But here’s a point Ling said in his interview that there holding money back for the January window but what’s the point of that if we need to bring in someone now,let’s not wait till we are down the bottom let’s get out of the traps early like we did last year.i know peoples opinion will differ from mine🙈

People are panicking a little too much on here i feel.

We have two goalscorers/strikers/no9's, Sotiriou & Piggot available. Seeing as richie play a 4-2-3-1 formation, then only one striker is needed in a formation, so if Pigott starts, then at some time Ruel will come on to replace him.

Ruel scored 9 last season, only 1 goal behind Smyth, so im confident if he's played as a no.9, he will score goals.

Losing Agyie was terrible, but we have options still.

I think Jordan Graham will be a good signing, and even though he hasnt had a pre-season, he will play himself into fitness. On Saturday, he will be on the bench, and get 20 mins, from the 70th min, against slightly tiring defenders. Next game he will get 30 mins, until hes playing 90 mins by the end of the month.

Chill out dudes, we'll be OK

If he gets 20 mins on his first game, 30 mins on his second game and 40 mins on his third game, he'll be playing all day by Christmas !

" Chill out dudes , we'll be OK". I hope I don't need to get back to you on that one because those types of statements have habit of turning around and biting you on the arse .
