I'll be happier when it reads "Experienced winger Michael is making a Roots Hall return"! Great signing when it's finalized.

Some of his goals in this clip are enough to get any Shrimper chomping at the bit for the new season.

Michael, Will you please just hurry up and sign your bloody contract.

We need to get on with discussing your wages in an informed and controlled manner.

No need for discussion mate. He's on 20k a week plus add-ons. My reliable sauce, Mr Heinze told me.

That 2nd goal was quality

Not official until it's official! :unsure:

The third one (goal E) was pretty tasty too!

Me too, He will probably tweet something in the morning confirming it, along with the line "read all about it in today's Echo" as per normal.

You can hardly blame him for that. It's 68p or something, if you're in the area just go out and buy one!

Shouldn't that be Goal C?

Chris Phillips tweeted that its in todays echo but article hasnt been released or put on line yet. That to me suggests its done and will be announced tomorrow

Is it me or is Chris Phillips approach now a bit different than in the past?

He would generally tweet the news first, now seems to be saying wait for the paper.

Looks like his has been told to let the paper itself to be breaking the news?

When in the Twitter era it has to be hard for journalists as the paper becomes old news very quickly

No, I did mean his third one (His are A - a tap in, C - free kick and E - little chip on a break).

Indeed, if the policy is now to wait for the paper the impact he will have will plummet. Always been the best source of information and if he does have to keep quiet till the paper comes out wont be as good as the past.

Hope Im imagining it .

I'm really pleased with this signing, and as much as I liked Will, I would consider this another one of Phil's upgrades on the squad. That's just hope he lives up to the hype. I also think Kightly probably has half a dozen goals in him at League One.

Talking of goals, obviously pending no injuries & Brown not playing a lone striker formation, I can see Cox achieving around 25 goals next season.

I should say so, he got 4 in 10 for Burton in the league above.

Double figures shouldn't be a shock.

I like these two goals for the hunger and desire.

What a player!

Last season there were times Cox would do something and it wouldn't come off because the players around him were not on the same wavelength.. mainly because of Cox's experience in the Prem. I think this is why he worked so well with MAF in that stint. I also think that he and Kightly will have a bromance given their experience

Ah right.

Note to self : Watch the video, first! :facepalm:

 

[Tommy2holes]

Yeah the free kick was good. But the take and chip was different gear. IF we sign Kightly today then we have a greater chance this season to seal a top 6 spot.

Kightly set for Blues comeback

MICHAEL Kightly is closing in on a return to Southend United, Echosport understands.
