Positivity please gentlemen🤔.  We asked for change and got it,  having watched marriot early doors there was a time when I seriously doubted him, but then the rest is history..... Good luck lad 👍

B&B, I don't think it's negative to have concerns about the new lads injury record - this is what he posted on Twitter yesterday

"Delighted to be here and kick on, I fell out of love with my biggest passion the last 2 years. But I’m ready to get fit & show what I can do"

Now, much as I wish the lad all the best there have to be questions around his fitness and I think we should be realistic about that, particularly given the size of our squad and the pressure to throw him into games sooner rather than later, but he left Bristol Rovers at the start of September

Plus we run on a small squad and seemingly have a much tighter budget than many in our League.  We already have King who is on the missing list.  Hopefully this new lad can get up to speed pdq and he gets somewhere near his true potential
What if the Hokey Cokey really is what it’s all about ?

Well, it'll be great if we see just a little of this.....

Very good. I don't think the talent the Lad has got has ever been in question, even by Joey Barton.

This level should be a Walk in the Park for him.

I wonder what his fitness level currently is.   :dontknow: Lets hope he's been working hard for the past 6 weeks.

That will be the key along with his attitude maybe. However, coming to this thread new and being able to read it all at the same time, I thought it appeared many had judged and convicted him without the trial. If (small word with a big meaning I admit), he does come with a fresh outlook and shows some of that talent, what a capture on a free.

If my memory is correct, when a certain Michael Gash joined KLFC, doubts were raised over his injury history. Whatever happened to him.😃 Lets give the lad a chance. He's only 23. To be honest a lot of the goal chances we miss are in the area, just need someone who is alert enough to convert them. If i heard it once on the radio, ive heard it ten times, ooh hes hit the side netting, crossbar, or put it wide. Maybe, just maybe we have someone who can get it in the 8 yards between the posts. :scarf:

Could be a perfect storm, but looking at that Clip and the passes he made, lets hope our current crop of players soon get on the same wavelength as him.

Agree B&G. Takes me back to the 70's, when Peterbough had Freddie Hill. Im not say ing this lad is in the same class, but Freddie came from Leeds Utd. He always seemed to be pass ahead of the rest of the team. It ok having a quality player in the team, if the rest know what he is going to do, and can make the correct runs. Time will tell, lets not judge til hes played a few games. Cant be any worse than a certain Mr. Holt. If he's as good as Simon Lappin, then happy days. :clap:

If anyone wants to know where the 8 yards are, then watch the video on the BBC website, for the great Roger Hunt, RIP,  tribute in the 1966 World Cup. Thats the way to do it. Right place, right time.

So is he a midfielder or forward ?  King replacement or option up front ?
Was hoping for more of an out n out striker …
 Do say he’s a good baller so fingers crossed
From what I've gathered he plays either side or behind the striker.
