He'd have to be pretty poor not to be an improvement on Spurr.

My thoughts too (although would have Spurr as back up lb based on his 1st season here and flexibility) but then the lad hasn't played much competitive football which is a bit of a worry. Plus our past history of lowering standards - it's not a given he'll be better.

[chaddyrovers]

He played at Ewood last season for West Ham Under-21 but I can't say he stood out. At the end of the day he is our player for next season and you can't judge him until he has a few games under his belt so we can see how he does. Hopefully, he'll be an improvement on Spurr.

Didnt West Ham spend 1 mil on him?

So clearly they have seen something in him to buy him.

Hope Spurr doesnt sign here

Really? Spurr is that bad? Is it all about pace these days?

I personally think that the ideal full back should be fairly quick, and whilst Spurr isn't, he's a decent championship defender

[Mike Graham]

Great minds...?

Is that Posh Spice on your Avatar?

Hopefully he'll chalk up a decent number of appearances for us.

He will probably get blackballed.

IMO He is a poor full back, slow and turns like a tanker!

We desperately need pace throughout the team on last seasons evidence.

[Mike E]

So, any other names in the frame?

[Mike Graham]

Someone called Taylor?

[ABBEY]

Great minds...?

Is there an option of a loan EXTENSION if he's good

Trying a bit too hard there BM.

Always take the pink instead of brown.

[JBiz]

Does this signing prove that agents are still in the frame?

[funny-old-game]

It's that my cue to post

Always

[BigUts]

Come on lads break it up. The mods will have to chalk off all the posts!

[bigbrandjohn]

Is this a potted version of the transfer news?

[JBiz]

Anyone any info on O'Sullivans future?

Burnt his Bridge, he's screwed

[den]

When was the last time that we brought in a player who was better than they one they replaced?

Apart from Rhodes, obviously. Den.

I haven't got a cue what you're talking about.

[JBiz]

Burnt his Bridge, he's screwed

Who did he screw? Maybe there is a plant in the dressing room.

[roverandout]

I bet his agent has pocketed a few quid,

[oldjamfan1]

I'm glad we didn't baulk at the wages.

[patrickvalery]

Willie be a Thorne in the side of the opposition? He was Reardon football after all. I only hope we get crystal palace in the cup so he can Mark Williams.
