That looks a proper signing that; and completely out of the blue

A bit of versatility upfront added to his vast experience in the game. Hope it goes well Tom and welcome to the Bluebirds

Cracking signing on the face of it, a lot of appearances at Championship and League One level over the last 7/8 seasons.

Springs me back to the signing of David Worrall. Experienced head who’s had a good career but on the way down. Hope I am wrong as I’ve seen Barky play many times over the years and on his day he is quality.
Still need a No9 for me the right side is certainly loaded with firepower if required though

Have we not got Cameron and Hemmings?

He's 32, could be LHG syndrome

Good player in my view, not the sharpest tool in the box but a hard worker. Good signing
(Ha, Hadrian, I wrote this before I saw your post in similar vein. I doubt we know the same Derby supporter!)

I thought he gave a very honest interview. Fingers crossed he’s the missing link we’re looking for.

Neither are a no 9 (both are more like a no10) think we need a pacey no9 to run behind defenders. The fact the no9 shirt is still available might mean we are still waiting
