A Striker!

[WBA123]

Will sign for us within the next 48 hours.....according to Social Media

The only striker we'll likely to get is a rail worker!

[splinter]

Is it a train driver or a doctor.

Didn’t think we would get Hugill to sign but it’s a real steal!

Strong rumours on twitter about Josh Maja joining on a free.

[WBA1955]

Maja got the number 9 shirt according to wiki. Wiki can be altered to suit but....we shall see.

Anybody know anything about him? Is he another Anelka type pension top up player?

154 appearances 45 goals which is just over 1 in 3. A good goal scoring striker you’re looking at 1 in 2. Still not bad. Let’s hope.

Still only 24 and 5ft 9, so not tall but a powerful player.

He does seem like the type of player that could make a difference but is he consistent? He never seemed to be prolific in England except for in League 1, scoring 15 goals in 24 for Sunderland.

Might be better getting HRK back ;-(

Given our current status as a club in financial ruin and only an outside chance of promotion, we need to be realistic around signings.

The fact we’re getting in a young player, no transfer fee involved, no injury record and a fair few goals last season - this feels like a really good deal.

As you say Baggiematt, given out current circumstances, it’s the best we can hope for. I love your optimism though, re outside chance of promotion. .

Not sure what he’ll bring as I know nothing about him in truth. Fingers crossed though.
