Considering both Reza and Church will still be in contract with us into next season, I'd like to think we could go and get a decent target man type rather than relying on an Obika who is probably more upper-mid League One level.

He'll do well in our league one promotion bid then
Thought he did ok for us last time and obviously scored a few important goals, but wasn't that impressed overall or fussed about him leaving. On saying that at this late stage and with the restricted options available and how desperate we are, I s'pose he's better than nothing. Hopefully feel he has a point to prove and can get those important goals again. Welcome back Jon.
Obika will certainly have a point to prove, out of contract at Spurs, and a 'failure' at Brighton, he'll be playing to get a decent club next season (whether with us or someone else)
Will he be out of contract ? Spurs gave him a new contract at the start of the season.
Decent signing, I actually think he and Sordell up top would be quite a powerful combo and would stretch defences and put them under a lot of pressure physically. Whether the goals are going to come we'll see.
Has good technique and touch, quick and attacks the channel well. Linked up well with Kermorgant but can't see him being that effective with any of our current forwards or by himself. Personally feel he needs a full season in League one to develop as a player and gain some experience. Getting few mins here and there for various sides hasn't helped him progress.
So much for Spurs refusing to loan us any more players - can't believe all the rumours on here
I thought that rumour was around Chris Powell being 'blacklisted' by certain agents and clubs for not giving enough game time to loanees.
Have I missed something here? It was also mentioned on the brighton forum posted earlier
Fataddick (Rumours are we would have got him on loan months ago, but his agent refused to deal with Chris Powell again - supposedly several agents have that view, one of the reasons Powell got the push.)
Have I missed something as to why our 'fans' are so against the man that is CP? Would like to meet a man who would have done a better and prouder job under the circumstances.. he's footballs good guy, yet hated by some of our own. sigh.

brilliant signing! anyway maybe spurs didnt like him being on the bench time and time again by powell and by brighton!! a deal that he has to start games this time round maybe!
I've rated him since I saw him play for Yeovil years ago (I think he scored down there in THAT game) and was over the moon the first time we signed him. He scored goals when he wasn't even starting games in his last spell here so hopefully he'll be in the first XI this time round.
He's quick, strong, good with his feet and head and knows how to score goals in this division. A quality signing. If only RD had backed Powell with signings like this.
I also think that's nonsense about Powell not giving loanees game time. Jackson was s loan signing, albeit not Powell's, and was his captain. If you were good enough, you played.

What's that all about?
I actually don't know . I haven't got a link,but from memory I think the rumour was first mentioned on the Dr Kish Blog.
I was personally pro Powell , but now wonder whether there was any truth in this.

It's still not a reason to sack him. Maybe back him with permanent signings instead.
Good news, even if not in the Conor Wickham type bracket.
He did well for us last time but may have done a lot better if he had started more, rather than coming off the bench and have limited time to get into games.

Big morale booster with the fans
Can't be. He would never have left Brighton if he was.
Should be able to pick up one easily right now.
