Think we need to be patient and view the squad in September. If we get in some younger players, mixed with players like Gibson then fine. If we end up in another situation where an old injury prone player like Stevens is our only option, backed up by a midfielder playing left back then the club will get it big time

It’s only a team talk article… but decent signing if true. About 5-7yrs ago perhaps. Sure he was always on TP's wanted list when Gibson was at Boro but we never managed to get him in his prime.. Maybe my expectations have been lowered after our more recent 30 plus defender signings, but if he’s here to compete for a spot against Wilmot and Rose to play alongside a more ambitious signing I would be pretty happy. If we sign another centre back (or even none others at all) that is not much of an upgrade on those 3 then fair enough I’ll be complaining as much as anyone come the end of August.

We'll get a good tune out of Gibson as long as he isn't Robin us blind

Here we go, it's always like this on here!!!... a few puns will get some hot under the collar!! Anyway I agree mate, he should be able to pull the strings. They'll be fretting Once he gets into a rhythm he’ll be the lead we’ve needed.

It'll be OK if he does the bass-ics.

Fed up with so called fans pedd(a)lling their 'wah-wah' nonsense about every signing.

Knowing us we'll go for the much cheaper and younger option Ben Epiphone who plays in League 2, and try and get a decent tune out of him

My son is currently at Warwick university but he told me that he is getting a good univibe over this signing

[br utter shite I'm more than happy to be against the grain given the grain are a bunch of knuckle dragging morons. Getting called out by morons for not fitting in with their views, it's like a badge of honour.

Left footed central defender with a lot of experience on a free, not much to complain about there I think!

To be fair the Norwich fans on there board were saying he’s decent on the ball, prone to the odd mistake but will go with there best wishes. One even said he was there best defender

I really love a steady Eddie defender, exactly what any team need in central defence!

Sounds like a team player.
Just what we need and left footed as well.

McNally and Clark only played 4 games between them? Only Hoever played more for us last season than McNally. As for Gibson never really rated him but it’s often hard to really know what players are like until you see them play week in week out, he’s left footed though at least.

What's with the obsession with a left footed CB? Genuinely curious.

Good experienced pro, will add balance to the defence being left footed.
Admittedly I hope we spend decent money on another centre half, I’d worry if he was our main centre back signing.
