Orient appear to have made a bid for Shrewsbury striker Lee Angol

Got to be a joke. His agent trying to drum up interest. Move on, nothing to see here.

Why is that a joke?
He did well at Lincoln when they got promoted, and had a decent record at Peterborough.

Because after he fractured his ankle in 2016 his scoring stats are pretty average and clubs seem happy to move him on.

He started 16 games (+13) and scored 9 goals for Mansfield in 2017.
He still only 24.

Only £200,000 received for Bonne? Surely not.

His last 2 moves have involved fees. Last to a league 1 club. Maybe he needs to be close to home and some tlc to be happy. He is still only 24, why be underwelmed.

10 in 34
4 in 27 following that, clearly never much rated at Shrewsbury.
Maybe Conference/League two is his level. He gets very mixed fans reviews. Some seeing him as a great signing, others a decent 4th striker. Seems a bit Bonne like in as much as he chases around a lot so perhaps that’s the attraction. Hard working like Bonne but without the goals.
Perhaps he is seen as a good backup striker, depending on who else come in, we are expecting two.
But with two strikers coming in I assumed one would be a decent striker with another playing second fiddle. I hope if he comes he is the latter. With money in the bank I hoped we could attract someone better.

Bergen, it sounds like dOh is looking at it from a different angle to you.

He's had a bad last season, but before that it's not bad at all.
You say he hasn't got goals like Bonne- remind me of Bonne's record before he arrived?

It doesn't matter who it is, people will be underwhelmed.

I would not be underwhelmed if it was Shaq Coulhirst, now he is a good goal scorer.

Bonnes league scoring record was largely non existent. For a then 18 year old playing at League one and two level after a prolific youth scoring record, Great signing, inspired, just moved up too soon. . Angol is 24 so more info about his ability at a generally lower level

This could be a cute signing, I don't know why people are being so obtuse about it.

Proper underwhelming. Not even managed 10 league goals in a season.
Hopefully just here as back up to Harold and Wilkinson.

He got 11 in 33 for Peterborough.

Harrold is not going to be a starter and you know it.

Now Joe Widdowson has cut his hair we need another Afro hairstyle even if it’s a short one.
