I’ve had the maracas out and I’ve thought of our new signings song already



That’s a decent clue- West Indies connection?

The best thing you can say is that there are slight echoes of when we signed Oliver - having said that at least Oliver had a league track record. I’m assuming this would be a Foyle signing as he was working up in Scotland.  It doesn’t look great for Harry Smith that we’ve signed him.

Look, we've had plenty of strikers firing on all cylinders that have been **** here, Harrad, Constantine, and plenty of strikers who were misfits and became amazing, Bayo, Oliver. Like everybody, he has at least 5 games before I'll make my mind up on him, let's see the lad show what he can do before we decide if we are happy or not with the signing.

9 goals is more than twice what any of our strikers got in the league last year.

A decent 1 in 3 record across his career but the vast majority of those goals have come at a very low level. His goal return at national league or higher is considerably lower, however having just watched the scout report video the club have put out there's some really good hold up play, layoffs and knock downs. He looks like a more mobile version of Oliver.

I think someone with those attributes doing the dirty work alongside Rose could prove an effective combo. Welcome aboard the good ship Cobblers, Nicke!

Exactly, but I'll give him a bit longer than five games to adjust to the increase in standard... Wink

If Kabamba was coming in with crystal clear potential to score 20+ goals a season, he wouldn't be coming to Cobblers!
Vadaine Oliver came in with similar figures and worked his socks off and acheived a new career peak

Read that Kabamba was a sprinter in his youth and has some serious pace so even if he offers nothing else, he can stretch some teams
Something we havent been able to do in 2/3 years since Curle came in really

I'd have 11 track runners out there if I could!

Apparently he can't keep his footing, imagine him & Ashley-Seal upfront.  Cheesy

One thing I will say is with Brady's background as a coach & his obvious intelligence as a person, I think he's a good bet to improve some rough diamonds.

We are starting to amass a lot of strikers! would make sense to get rid of a few. I would think Smith & Rose would probably be the most easy to offload.

Good luck Nicke. We wish you every success.

One comment regarding footing - Kilmarnock play on an artificial pitch which may be part of the problem.

Seems like a decent signing and not sure what some people are expecting with a limited budget.
Importantly JB is getting to pick his own team and we’ll soon see if he is going to work some league two magic.
The keeper situation will be the biggy.
