Smacks of desperation, only 8 players signed and the first game just 21 days away !

Personally I think it’s a great signing, he was my favourite ever player to ever pull on a Weston shirt ever.
I was really hoping but never dared to dream that when Mickey Bell took over that he’d pull every string he could to get such an asset back to the Woodspring and now it’s happened. I feel like we’ve won the lottery and couldn’t be happier.
Onwards and upwards!!!!

I'm with you Latchy....why else would he have had better offers to turn down if he wasn't absolute class! I think once he's got a dozen or so games under his belt he could prove all the doubters wrong and maybe become the new "fans favourite".....just a shame it's gonna take him three years to play that many.

I certainly think that he’s going to be the topic of many a discussion on the terrace(s) this coming season.

You confident we will get a crowd this season Latchy ? Yes, I think the usual suspects will be there, just have to all huddle together during the winter months to keep warm but I take your point, I don't think the man on the turnstile will be to overworked this season. Perhaps our new youthfull approach will work and the players may be able to convince their school friends to come along as well.
