    Free agent Freddie Woodman is joining Liverpool as third choice keeper, know a few (possibly even me?) mentioned him early in the window as someone it might have been worth us looking at 
    Great move . 3rd choice,  doesn’t even have to turn up match days.

    Olaofe still looks to me like a bit of a punt. Has the right credentials but unproven for where we are. Much like Carey really although the latter has played at Championship level. I sincerely hope that some of our signings are going to have a better Championship profile than those two. 
  • Before Luton signed Elijah Adebayo when they were in the Champ. He got 10 goals at league two level. 

    I think this is a great move for us. Striker on the up!

    A lot of comments about his finishing are based off 1 game (in which he also scored with a great finish). You can't judge someone's finishing ability of a 1 game sample size. His finishing record is pretty decent overall 
    His xG to goals ratio is actually pretty good to be fair, around 9 for both which suggests he’s putting away the chances given to him. Godden over performed his xG by 3 so we’re all possibly putting too much expectation on strikers a bit 
    And last season Olaofe scored 20 goals from 16.8xg. His finishing is fine, and he will offer a lot more than goals to the team

    Jesus Christ, blokes not even signed yet and we’ve got comments like this already. Not sure I’ve got it in me to get through the summer

    So are you saying we’re not allowed to have opinions on players?

    He went to Wilmington Grammar school. With Kanu going to Dartford Grammar, that's quite a Dartford connection  :)

    Seems as though he is having an opinion on someone’s opinion, is that not allowed?

    When we signed that Alan Campbell bloke on loan we got excited because he would break his granny’s leg for the last digestive biscuit or something like that.
    Once a player is ours it is the nature of things to see or make the best of it.
    The crucial bit is, of course, getting the best players playing well for us once they are here.
    It didn’t happen with Campbell nor (sadly because of the length of contract) Ahadme.
    I don’t question Ahadme’s effort, but he is not the right fit for us.

    Have you all gone mad?
    Unforgiveable miss in the last seconds of injury time v Orient, at 1min 30 -blazes over  so missing out on Wembley

    And before anyone says but he scored a great goal to equalise. That was a back flick cross that just happened to go in.

    Big no thanks from me. Offload him somewhere else Stockport.
    Because he missed one chance? That is craaaaazy

    Of course everyone is allowed to have an opinion.

    But if you air an opinion out loud, or on a message board, you've got to accept that someone might disagree with that fact. If I have an opinion that I don't want people to challenge me on, I'll keep it to myself.

    Been over this already on here. If you think like this we would have never signed Yann Kerm. 

    Give your head a wobble

    Kane blazed a penalty miles over the bar to knock us out of the latest world cup, would you therefore avoid ever buying him for such a spectacular historic miss? No, grow up.

    Writing a player off due to not have ‘a better profile’ isn’t a good enough reason to write someone off before they’ve even signed unfortunately. 

    Poku and mbengue didn’t have the ‘championship profile’ would they have been written off so easily?  
    Stockport fans who watch him rave about him, so that’s good enough of an opinion from people who watch him week in and week out. People need to just get real to the fact our best chance of picking up a gem is to hoover up the best talent in league 1

    we get it, you don’t rate him. Fine, you are allowed an opinion. Better strikers than him have missed easier chances than the one you are alluding to. And that back flick showed great awareness and was a fine finish. Why don’t you just give him a chance eh, if he signs?

    Every player has missed easy chances. Even great goalscorers like Jimmy Greaves.
    Why not show the goals he has scored?

    I take it you didn't want to sign Yann Kermorgant? Historic and atrocious miss in a Champ play-off semi-final

    Rich reckons that the Spanners have a good sell on clause. Could we maybe trade a couple of players? 

    Ahadme could be a makeweight? I do think he could come good somewhere in L1/2. With us it was the fee and length of contract which made it a terrible deal. They also lost their star centre back to Blackpool , so Alex Mitchell might be of interest.

    All strikers miss chances .. but they have to be in the right position to miss them , I be more concerned if he was not getting the chances to miss cause that would mean his positioning was not good enough ….

    That miss is about a 2/10 on the Macauley-Bonne scale.

    Alex Mitchell would be a good makeweight. Not sure they'd want Ahadme if their fans are right that they want Samson Tovide. 

    Maybe DK on loan?
