Leon Lobjoit signed permanent contract at Sixfields from Buckingham Town.
Just announced on BBC Northampton, however no official confirmation from the club yet. Strange!

Has been on trial, previously at MK Dons (Youth) and Coventry City.

Worth a shout, gives us a different option to what we have upfront and won't cost the earth.
Good signing.

And QPR. Hopefully fatherhood has helped refocus his desires as a provider and what must be last chance saloon after the other clubs. Wish him well and if he could bring 30% of those goals with him that'd be good.

Can't see anything on Twitter regarding this! If we did sign him now would he be eligible for the last few games of the season or have the rules changed meaning we can't register him?

As explained at the top, this was announced on BBC Northampton with an interview with the player himself (about 4.40pm). Maybe this shouldn't have been announced until a later date. I have e-mailed Gareth Willsher, but as yet have not received a reply.

Gareth has replied. Radio Northampton announced the signing early. There was an embargo until 6pm to allow all the paperwork to be completed. They are going to take this matter up with BBC Northampton.
Oh dear, looks like they're in trouble.

Fair play to the club for signing a local non league talent. I actually saw him play for Buckingham earlier this season. Whilst it's a step up I can't beleive we've won the race to sign him. In fact I can't beleive no one else took a punt. I said to a friend at the time he reminded me of Jermaine Defoe. Let's hope he does the bizz

shows what I know! Didn't Atkins get some criticism when signing Jamie Hand? Got a non league team to sign him from whatever league club it was so we could then sign him outside of window as a favour? Might have just imagined/fabricated that!!

You are a tit. Not negative at all you fool. I incorrectly thought he would be clear to play but apparently is not and highlighted my own error.
I'm pleased for him and hope he takes his chance and it benefits all parties.

My guess is that he had an attitude problem which led to him throwing away his chances at me dons, qpr and Coventry. Hopefully he's sorted this now and is willing to put the effort in.
Alternatives could be that he's a late bloomer, like Harry Kane.
Or he's just a bit s*** and we've got it wrong.
