    I am cautiously optimistic for next season if this is the type of signings we are making.

    Good start, now for Novak and Ajose.

    This would be similar to the Hayes / BWP partnership for me, although more dangerous as Novak gets more goals

    Well, there's our one step forward, what's the two steps back to be? JBG leaving on a free? Cousins joining Palace?

    this is a bit peculiar as from the YouTube clips it looks like he is right footed and played on the right - weird!

    Was this the bloke we was linked with when Wilder was going to come in?

    Funny how the signing is pleasing news, yet the very mention of thanking Katrien angers me

    I think we all feel the same!

    He very much looks like a JBG replacement... He's not the fastest but can (probably) cross and definitely get a shot away.

    I have a feeling he might fare better than JBG in L1. His physicality leads me to think that anyway.

    Welcome Ricky. Looks decent from the YouTube clip (so does everyone except Ba). Gives JBG some competition. Anyone know why he has not been playing any higher at 28?

    So not really a Slade signing then, one of his "top targets" who happened to be linked with us a month before. hmmmm

    Looks like a player with pretty decent technical ability from that clip

    Seems like one who has just slipped under the net... He was released by Southend as a kid and came through the ranks @ Chelmsford.

    League 2 or not, 11 goals from our wide is very impressive. Follow this up with Ajoze and Novak and I'll start to get very excited for next season. This is a very good signing imo

    Doe at pass the height test.

    Looks like over a few years he's caught the ball very well.

    Good joss at Charlton.

    Don't know much about him but the Northampton fans seem to like him. Hopefully he can reproduce his L2 form a division above. Could be a good start.
