Here are some highlights from a few years back

Lots to like from his highlights (although who has bad highlights?) strong, comfortable on the ball whilst marked, able to get behind a defence. Looks a good fit for what we need. Would have been a nice back-up to Cards.

My highlight reel also looks decent ... so a pinch of salt with these

It's just a shame that with all the names we have been linked with, this seems a bit underwhelming

Not to mention, loosing Cards on top

Hopefully pepple and forson announced today anyone know the chances of this happening

 

[HML]

Understand that Forest Green are set to announce the signing of a striker from the EFL later on today, who they have spent a decent fee on. This doesn’t mean Cardwell is definitely staying, however, if anything it is a slight positive.

Well i was right with this but looks like Cardwell is still off. Absolutely despise those vegans. As for Pepple, absolutely awful striker going off what i’ve heard from Grimsby and Bromley fans. Fuming.

Makes you wonder just what we are paying JS for as the signings don't fill you with confidence

 

[South Bank Hank]

He’s just Aribim Pepple
You won’t know which way to go…

 

[Shrimp and two veg]

I'm hearing far from being outbid, we are in fact beating other clubs to signatures, the actions of a big club indeed. Come on you Southend boys. As much as i like Cards, we can do better and will need to up our game a bit from last season. Fingers crossed.

I ask myself when did it actually start?

When they stopped us going extinct.

Exactly most of them are ****e. Cardwell and GSM for instance. Useless

 

[Danshrimper]

Pepple’s record sounds awfully similar to Cardwell’s 1 in 37 for Grimsby. So let’s not judge him too soon.

Besides, it’s not like he is being signed as Cardwell’s replacement. We need someone in up front urgently, so a loan makes sense at short notice. We can just send him back to Luton if it doesn’t work out.

Daggers fans in meltdown already, he told them he wasnt going to sign as he wanted to be higher up the pyramid. I like this kid already..

The few gems are sadly outweighed by mediocre players

 

[Shrimper95]

There’s been plenty of players that have come in with an underwhelming record, anyone remember a certain Barry Corr?

Keenan Appiah-Forson Would be a very good signing- loads of potential to play higher and already a proven performer in this league

BIlel anyone ? Ryan Hall? Quite the team that one..

Hide the scissors

 

[Clinton Baptiste]

Corr had Ryan Hall putting the ball on a plate for him, that was key.

 

[WillMay333]

People really slating cards are so quick to forget when he lead the line without being paid, stuck by us, some sad sad people in this fanbase

These type of signings are often the biggest surprise in a positive way. Bought by Luton when in Prem based on performances and goals in Canadian Prem (don’t know what level that is)- but Luton saw something and JS has strong contacts at Luton. That has more value than the views of a few Bromley and Grimsby fans (think DC relationship with Sheff U and what that brought)….and few people know less about football than football fans it seems…
