Breaking News Shaquile Coulthirst signs

[Angell Delight]

The last Freddy goal?

And Shrimper Bolton can you nip along to Burnden Park and see what is happening with Sean Bolger?

Burnden Park? Might be a bit pointless unless you need to do your shopping..... :winking:

When, not if he scores for the first team perhaps we should have Shaq Attack - 'Easier Said Than Done' blasting from the PA system.

He's short, extremely quick, good upper body strength, good ball control. He'll create his own chances and is a good finisher

He is 5' 11'' I don't call that short. He's quick, but not extremely quick. He doesn't create his own chances, he relies on balls played down the side or in between centre backs.

I've seen him a few times and he is a good finisher. Given the right service he'll do well. Given poor service, he'll be off back to The Lane via the Break Clause.

Watched the couple of goals he scored for Torquay (v Bristol Rovers and v Mansfield) last season on youtube. They are both headers - somehow I was expecting him outpacing ailing centre backs and beating the for pace! Good to know there is more than one string to his bow!

A good striker who at L2 level to be one of you 4 + is another big step forward

One of my few trips to RH last season was the unremarkable win against Torquay. I remember Shaq being the only player for them who really gave us anything to worry about. I just assumed he was one of their regulars at the time. Could prove a very useful aquisition. Hope he shines.

didn't he only come off the bench with about 20 minutes to go.

he's a funny one actually, Spurs have a history going back years of having strikers you score bucketloads for the youth and reserve teams, but then just never ever quite kick on to the first team...then become lower league at best....I've seen this kid play a few times for Spurs youth sides (and in that European NewGen or whatever it's called) and he's been absolutely superb, so hopefully he is going to make a top flight career for himself and not be the next Rory Allen, Neale Fenn, Lee Barnard or Jamie Slabber

I think so. From memory he caused us several problems and put in one peach of a cross that somehow wasn't converted.
