They’re doing this well, credit to them.

Smith from Northampton id say. The number of question marks is the same number of letters as Northampton

Ahhhhh the comforting feeling of having a Plan B this time. Now we just need someone who can cross

We're just one more Smith away from an entry in the upper class twit of the year competition.

[positive post] This sounds like a great signing [/positive post]

Hm.

I hope he does well.

Next stop, promotion!
Welcome on board Harry.

Needed a big lump.
Things are taking shape,

According to whoscored.com, he was Northampton Towns best player last season.

2 minutes of him here. Looks a bit more than the big bloke up front

Agreed, he looks very useful from these clips.
One wonders why Northampton are letting him go, but regardless, I trust someone of Kenny Jacketts experience that he’s made a good choice and that we can improve him with the right coaching.

Didn’t we pay a fee for him .? Somebody on Facebook reckons Northampton wanted to keep him

Yes, signed for an undisclosed fee (in line with league rules about not disclosing fees).

Hurry up Harry!!!!!
We’re going down the pub.

He's a bit of a donkey, if memory serves, but we needed a big lump and we've got one. I can't imagine he'll start every game. I hope we're going to be a little easier on the eye than that.

I assume we haven't paid much but offered a good sell on clause, and promotion payment

We weren’t very easy on the eye last year when DJ was too poor on the ball to hold it up and too short to win anything in the air. Don’t really care how attractively we play as long as there’s some sort of plan that’s better than ‘hope Wilko does something or the oppo misplace a backpass for DJ’.

Looks a decent signing at L2 level and fills a hole - Smith and Smyth up front will also make life easier for Dulcet Dave!

No. You can bet your life DD will fcuk up those two very similar sounding names somehow.

Easier on the eye like when we were scrapping our way to the National League title?

looks like a great signing hope I am right.
