Careful, enthusiasm is a punishable offence on here.
I agree with you that this is a good signing, but will say that its OK to save me from the slings and arrows.

Partly agree, it "could" be a good signing, it's not yet a "defo" good signing.
Could be a disasterous signing.

He has a better goal/game conversion rate than any of our current strickers

when i saw BH play at walkers last season, he was deadly when he went forward and he has scored important goals, least for the tap in and one on ones i have more confident with him then fryatt
Not this season he hasn't. He's scored two goals in 24 games this season. And that's in a team that's creating a lot more chances than we are.

Fair dues, but I responding to Graz saying that his goal scoring record wasn't particularly good so I was comparing their career stats.

If Howard completes his move in time, I think tomorrow we'll be seeing Fryatt and Howard up top with Hume in behind. Which sounds pretty decent to me.

I did say in my next post that his record was actually better than I thought
I just saw the 16 in 66 at the bottom to start with.. Probably still better than our other strikers, but still not great. (just over 1 in 4)

I agree.
I think instead or worring about the wingers, we should be looking at two attacking CMs who can slot the ball through to the forwards on the floor.

Didn't IH say that he wasn't going to sign anyone from Plymouth?

Forget Eastenders and King Lear, Ollie has a new starring role:

I've heard him say the eaxct opposite on several occasions.
Me too, I thought at one point he said he was going to take all of their players?
No.
He said he wouldn't approach them for their players, if they want to sell anyone to us it would be up to them to contact us. So they've probably decided they don't want Hayles any more and thought it would be easy to offload him to us.

Agreed and IMO only adds to fan indifference when excitement is required. As BF would say anyhoo, let's see if he really does deserve to be barracked first before starting. :icon_wink

According to the OS, we "captured" him, that would indicate that a chase took place first.

Like all the chases for all the other players we have signed going back to Junior Lewis and beyond. :icon_roll
