I make you right in part, but i guess this isnt the type of signing people would be hoping for. If he comes good then great but 31 and only scored 7 goals in 81 games and for a team that probably creates more than we do.
Yeah, but can he defend the near post at a corner?
I’m glad to see I’m not the only fan that Danny Cowley and Robbie Cowling have put on commission to move him along
No problem Cricko, I understand the disappointment some of you will be feeling, as you say the recruitment guys had lots of players lined up but maybe many of those were snapped up by others or simply didn’t want to come. I feel it might be a long road for the club financially to recover and of course that will reflect in the players you can sign. If Tom does come back it will be because the move suits him due to location, he is of an age that this might be his last move.
I thought he was very good first time round, but that was 3/4 years ago. Miley was good then too.
Colblue play nicely!I’m glad to see I’m not the only fan that Danny Cowley and Robbie Cowling have put on commission to move him along
This is on a private message, right
Injuries i can find include
Ah I didn't make myself very clear there. My point was meant to be that, if people didn't rate him then, they definitely won't now!
I make you right on this front. Im not overly pleased if we do sign him but that's nothing against Tom im just sceptical about why we would go for someone like this. However he would get my 100% support and loved him first time round and you just never know. But we already have a similar type player in Bonne at the club so would it be a risk to bring another player in similar. lets hope he scores a hattrick on Saturday
Why not most reporters of local papers rely on social media for info, most clubs tell them very little!
I wouldn't class Hopper as a target man myself. He has the ability to cover some of what a target man does but from his time with us he liked to also get in behind the defence and also run wide which doesn't fit in with our current style of play. For the hype Maher has given Cards since he left we haven't signed a striker who's preference is to receive the ball with his back to goal in a proper target man mould like you say yet still play like that. Bim was close but he also liked to run onto the ball.
Thanks mate at least his fitness isnt to be questioned. thats my bad as assumed he has been unfit without checking
If this is on the cards (no pun intended) then defo not the Striker we all crave, but I assume as hinted by other posters this would be an attempt to support and assist the Forwards already in the Club to produce the end product so obviously missing, another throw of the dice move? Also he is adapt at defending corners, which Kev made reference to the role Cards played for us and have failed to replace. Well not doubt will find out before long. Additionally if we were to also bring in the supposed targeted 'Striker' from NLS/NLN then this potentially could prove to be a more than useful acquisition.
