palace451 Posted July 2, 2014 Report Share Posted July 2, 2014 Palace Fan here Wilbs is a top target man, his hold up play is superb, if you have a someone to work off him he'll do really well for you. At league 1 level I imagine he'd be good for 10 goals a season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That can't be right, he's a useless lump that we shouldn't be signing, not when Alexis Sanchez is up for grabs :grr: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Esmond Million's Bung Posted July 2, 2014 Report Share Posted July 2, 2014 And so it continues.... Bristol City FC and the Pilton Pop Festival (Glastonbury for you young 'uns) - have you noticed the similarity between the two? I'm referring to the 'Sunday afternoon Legends Spot' They had Kenny Rogers, we had Jody Morris, They had Dolly Parton and we get Wilbraham. I'm hoping that next year, Glastonbury book the late Waylon Jennings so that we can sign the ghost of Bobby Moore. Oh I don't know it could be worse, Glastonbury could have re-booked Rolf Harris and we could have signed Marlon King. Is this not the exact signing we were trying to stop though? 34 year old lump who was on his way down about 4 years ago? I'm stunned that some people are actually happy with this signing!! SURELY there HAS to be better out there? All the good work we have done in the market and then we go and do this? Makes no sense at all. But of course let's put the boot in before a ball is kicked, not only to the new signing but the manager as well, next week the kit will be shit, the new sponsor will be Xytex cryo international (cuts out the middle man for *******) and there will be a hosepipe ban and the new pitch will die. One year win/win, IMO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

B-Rizzle Posted July 2, 2014 Report Share Posted July 2, 2014 Not overly enthralled, however he is the right type of striker we need. I'm encouraged by his previous partnership with Baldock and his experience although he could end up being our 'Harewood' signing of the summer. Hope it's the former! Welcome Aaron!

Smokey Posted July 2, 2014 Report Share Posted July 2, 2014 Not the sort of signing i was hoping to see us make, but he must have something about him to keep playing for clubs that get promoted. Lets wait to see how he does before we start to rip into him. Not a lot of people were happy when we 1st signed wade elliott until they saw him play a few games for us Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nibor Posted July 2, 2014 Report Share Posted July 2, 2014 My point exactly, but we aren't entitled to an opinion are we? There are a fair few numpties who are only capable of black and white. Ignore em. I just don't want to see us playing the sort of football where a towering target man is useful. It's not good to watch and it's not usually effective. We'll see how we do.

Nope, I may be wrong or I might be right, the same as I may be wrong about Freeman being an Excellent signing... Its just my opinion which I am entitled to!

Northern Red Posted July 2, 2014 Report Share Posted July 2, 2014 Can't say I'm overly thrilled with this but it's only a 1 year deal and I suppose he's what GJ would call "another club in the bag". Gives us another option if we do need to go a bit more direct. And he's not Tyrone Barnett. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nibor Posted July 2, 2014 Report Share Posted July 2, 2014 1st sentence the numpties willing to give the guy a chance?. No, the kind of numpty who thinks being less than enthused about a signing has anything at all to do with whether you will give them a chance. That sort of numpty lives in a world where you have to be totally for or totally against something. Daily Mail readers and people of that ilk. Best ignored.
