Yorkshireman. 24 goals in fifty odd games for Aberdeen Of course hard to guage given the standard of that league but worth a look?
Low wages,small fee (£5m?less?)

Tall, mobile, young target-man who is getting about a goal every other game...
We can't really be bringing strikers in till we get rid of some, especially now we seem to want to play one up top. Definitely the right mould of player for a 4-3-3 though and surely too obscure a link not to have some truth to it.
Was doing well enough to be linked with Lazio but was let go by Carlisle and Wigan.... But also did come through Everton's academy which is a pretty good one.
Certainly wouldn't be a guaranteed success but I'm guessing we see ourselves picking him up on the cheap and as young risk-free ish backup (exactly what we should be going for).

Vokes Gregory Campbell Hogan Diouf
You'd imagine one or two would have to leave.

Vokes Gregory Campbell Hogan Diouf You'd imagine one or two would have to leave. Gregory, Cosgrove and Campbell would be a nice trio of options. Hogan can go back to Villa, Diouf can do something and Vokes would be hard to shift in a very literal sense.

Can I be the first to say he's dogshit and plays in a pub league? Followed by telling you I've got a bad feeling about this but hope I'm proved wrong?

Thanks for that synopsis, I'm sure I'm not alone in never having heard of this toothy tyke. I'm still in favour though, a Yorksireman in Scotland will be as close to a glamorous signing from abroad as we get :-)

Could possibly be a Chapple find this one. I remember it loosely being floated around when Jones was here.
Out of our striker pool the only one I'd keep, for various reasons, is Gregory. The rest can go and go as soon as possible for me.

You would have assumed that we will have watched him at least 25 times ONeill has already stated that the squad is too big so surely is already making plans to TRY and offload players not in his plans Never heard of this player but probably a calculated risk

Can anyone get excited about signing anyone until we've got rid of lots of players?
At the moment every new signing without selling someone just keeps storing up a problem!

Adam Rooney had a similar record over a longer period at Aberdeen but he wasn't good enough for the championship

He does move a little like Chapman used to, slightly ungainly but if he has half the career Lee Chapman had he will be very happy.

He looks to be a proper old fashioned, big lump striker. I have no doubts that if he did end up here we would be able to coach and remove any last bit of goal scoring ability from him so he too could be added to the graveyard of Stoke City strikers.
What struck me most about those clips though was just how wank goalkeeping continues to be in Scotland... even Jack could look good up there.

usually celtic or rangers snap any bits of decent talent up in scotland if they think they are any good.
