I suppose it puts those penny pinching claims to bed.
I wish it would put you to bed.

What’s the point of that? Clampy does have a point, one thing is for certain our owners are not scared to back the manager and they have certainly spent a huge amount of money since they saved us from disaster.

Followed him since Exeter.   Bloody good player.  He will do well for us.

Brian did mention him a few times whenever he scored and I did give him a little bit of stick over it but fair play, it was a good spot, well hopefully it will be. Fair play Brian.

Always nice signing a striker. The anticipation, hoping they'll be another hero of the Holte..

Glad we’ve backed Deans judgement, fee seems far too high.

Cheap considering fees for strikers in this League. Havertz to Chelsea for £85m? Haller a flop to West Ham at £45m? Joelinton a flop to Newcastle at £40m? I think Ollie will do well for us. He is young, has pace, can hold the ball up and a decent scoring rate.


When you look at them this guy could be a bargain
