Is he a current International?
Will he be buggering off every 6-8 weeks for games?
TM said neither player signed yesterday would be involved tonight.All very hush hush. If true how good is he, when will we know, will he feature tomorrow or when, who will he replace, Cole ? Fleck ?
Would definitely say that about Jodi Jones. I just wonder if the Bulgarian's English isn't so good. Might take him a little while to incorporate into the team's ethos.It does piss me off when we sign players but then don't stick them in the squad.
At the moment we have nothing to lose and everything to gain.

Yep. Sometimes I think it is all ravelled up in the red tape of statistical charts and game plans and paperwork.I find this reluctance to put new signings straight in a puzzle too. Way back in 1968 we bought 2 players on deadline day Chris Cattlin and Ernie Hunt, both went straight into the team against reigning champions Manchester United, Bobby Charlton, Denis Law, George Best and co, we won 2-0. Players are signed nowadays and wait weeks for their debut.

What ethos is that then? Bottling it completely?
Well maybe.What ethos is that then? Bottling it completely?
Agree with you Chubster
If they are both match fit I agree.Jones and Vlad need to be in the squad tonight. One is a winger with pace and and eye for goal. That kind of player causes havoc in this league. Vlad is an international midfielder who has also played champions league footy. He was also captain of the Levski who are Bulgarian champions. The guy has pedigree and it's shocking to find him willing to play in League 1.
Both need to be on the bench tonight at least. Could be game changers for us and at this stage the unknown will cause opposition problems.
That's unfair IMO - he had recently been signed by fc kuban krasnodar until the deal was annuled due to finance issues. Very respectable team in the russian lge with the likes of felipe santana playing for them...Another shit signing. If he was any good why the hell would he need a trial with a mid table league 1 club...

We know it won't happen though.
Jones may well be on the bench, mind. I don't quite get TM's thinking on this. He says Jones is just 18 and one for the future and worries about throwing him in too early, but the lad has played 35 times for Dagenham and Redbridge! He's hardly a novice.

Yeah why dont we sign Harry Kane or sumfink?
Exactly that.
If they are not match for throw them on with 20-25mins to go and mix it up a bit.
No worries Ten Suits McMensa
Exactly, especially if it is somebody pacey and unknown. I wonder if that is why Armstrong did so well at the start of the season too before people were clued up about how to play against him?
I bet a tired defender defending a lead rubs their hands together when they see Fortune come on, rather than a young pacey forward with something to prove!
