Absolutely thrilled with this signing! A real statement of intent by the club, and one of the players from around the league that has always been on my wishlist (since he put 4 past us playing for Hull) - I'm not sure how the rest of the off season is going to go, but these first two announcements will take some beating!
As a side note, all the positive press from last seasons players (and players just signed) is absolutely fantastic. Ridiculous amounts of praise have been heaped on the owners, team, management and fans by last seasons team, and it seems a lot of players are taking note! ...Echoes from inside the club suggest that we really are the team to play for in the UK right now and I have never been so excited to see how our team will shape up!
...would just like to see some of our brits tied up now, as a few surprises have happened so far (Boxill, D Phillips)
And not that I would ever give Lord/Franny recruitment advice, but...
How exciting would this line look:
Salters/Biz - Culligan - Doucet
(although I think we may be waiting just one more season for Biz)
