Stephen Dobbie

[DMnumber4]

This is our man! Completely changed the face of the game tonight, had an instant impact and looked very sharp.

He's out of favour with Paulo Sousa at Swansea (hence the loan move) despite all their striking problems. The general consensus in Wales is that PS wants to clear out players that Martinez bought who he doesn't want e.g. Bauza, Pintado, Dobbie and replace them with his own e.g. Kuqi  

Dobbie came on against us at Bloomfield Road and scored a peach. Has a proven goalscoring record: http://www.soccerbase.com/players_details.sd?playerid=35703

Good player but surely Blackpool will be in the driving seat to sign him.

If they go up I can't see it happening, he's not THAT good.

You could be right. Though I wouldn't put it past Holloway to show faith in the loanees that have done well for him and go for them permanently. Afterall Blackpool would probably pocket the TV money and not spend silly money on new signings. We'll see. Chances are he'll be leaving Swansea as he doesn't fit into their system of playing one up front. If Blackpool don't want him then we should take a look.

When I mentioned Steve Dobbie last year before he went to Blackpool I was laughed down
As I was with Jason Scotland and Years ago Billy Sharpe when he went to Scunny.
May be I should apply for a scouting job.
