Mbwana Samatta. Sold. Puns still banned.

In The Shirt On The Pitch (ITSOTP).

An actual striker for Tuesday.

I was underwhelmed with the signing at first, but I can't wait to see how he gets on.
He certainly has a plenty of fans, home and in Belgium.

There must be something about him.

[Big Ming]

Be nice if he can play without fear, unlike most of the rest of them.It's been going on a bit too long now.
Perhaps we can actually try and string a 90 minute performance together against Watford..... say Burnley first half with Brighton second half.
Anyway, it would be nice to see a determined effort to win, as opposed to trying to avoid defeat.
Welcome, Mbwana. Please try to hit the ground running. Know it's a big ask.

He's not played in 3 weeks, so he might not be the sharpest.

Does anybody subscribe to The Athletic?

Supposed to be a good article on there about Samatta.

Him and Drinky can try and outsharpen each other then.

When he is announced, with the shirt stretch, can we have a 24/48 punfest window to allow us all to get it out of our systems.

If we don't play Joe Dolce over the PA prior to his debut I will be gutted. It would be pure 'music theatre'.

To be fair the most recent footage of Drinkwater and Reina playing prior to joining us is on Pathe Newsreel.

Wasn't Joe Dolce from Sutton Coldfield? Is he still around ? If so he could sing the song in front of the Holte like that bloke singing Ynwa on the last day of the Holte terracing - against Liverpool

Is this supposed to be ironic? 3 weeks is nothing.

[frank black]

Amazed we got the work permit sorted that quickly.

That was exactly what Banik Ostrava told us when we signed Ivo Stas
