Matty Blair signs

[Tom-RTID]

Midfielder, 26 signs from Mansfield. 2 year deal

[Copps is Magic]

Presume we paid a fee?

[The Red Baron]

Sounds like he was out of contract. Rigo should be able to mark our card on him.

[karldew]

Contract expired by looks of it and opted to sign for us.
Won promotion with Fleetwood in the past.
Dont really no much more about him?..

[The Red Baron]

Easy chant anyway! 

[karldew]

Off their forum;

"Two year deal just been announced on their website.... apparently the manager was at the county game, must of impressed. Not sure what to think"

"Confirmed, Talk of them having a 4.5mil budget next season."

[Copps is Magic]

4.5 million budget! Haha. No where near.

[Donny Exile in York]

Was class as York were promoted back into the league at Wembley a few years ago.. was a real prospect in the conference.. found league goals and football harder since though part of the Fleetwood side that won the league two play offs a few years ago.. quick and direct..

[Retdon1]

Spoke to a lad at work who is a season ticket holder there. Says he played out wide mainly for them and is quick and can chip in with a few goals. Says hes decent for league 2 and was one of there better players last season.

[ScillyRover]

He was out for nine months with a knee ligament injury. Let's hope he's fully fit again. Versatile player, direct and pacey apparently.

[Move DRFC]

Hopefully he can persuade Tafazolli to join him. Fergie was watching him too.

[DonnyOsmond]

Is he creative? Get many assists?

[esdailles left foot]

Good to see Fergie addressing our defensive frailties!!!!

[DonnyOsmond]

Should we not sign any players until the defence is sorted or shall we go about strengthening all areas as quick as possible? We've probably approached a few defenders and they've just not agreed yet, be patient.

Tasty sis in law ( Holly Matthews ). Byker grove, waterloo road, The Bill, and can sing a bit too. Not that i think she will attend games, as it a sis in law as opposed to girl friend/wife.

[DonnyOsmond]

Having a look he sounds like a quality League Two winger but probably won't make the step up to League One if we were to go back up.

Reminds me of a description of a mishit drive in golf which runs 200 yards down the fairway.
Known as a "sister in law".
You are up there but you shouldn't be.

[dickos1]

Let's not sign anyone then
We need more than just defenders

[Copps is Magic]

We've signed two more players than near enough every club in the league at this point.

[RoverAtUni]

4.5 mill budget?

Makes sense use the budget wisely, get a solid player on a free. Spend the rest on the defence. 

[Dare to dream!]

Don't know much about him but is he right or left sided?

Signing players of the right age.

[Al4475]

£4.5m wage budget will be near the mark I would've thought - I wouldn't imagine that'd be exclusively player budget by any stretch tho!

[Wild Rover]

Its Mansfield budget not DRFC i think. As its from their forum.

[GazLaz]

Mansfields wont even be half that.

[DonnyOsmond]

It is us. The comment is

"Confirmed, Talk of them having a 4.5mil budget next season"

We don't lose much income next season so we'll be similar to last season which was about 4.5 mil.

[karldew]

Its Mansfield budget not DRFC i think. As its from their forum.

It's what they think we have for our budget.

A lot of comments about him being an average player with no end product to. Also a few saying they thought he would stay as the have been paying him while he's been out injured. 1 comment did make me laugh when they said decent wingers are available and they mentioned Jamal Campbell-Ryce though

[Al4475]

Everyone's rubbish when they leave tho' especially if they leave your club!

[Copps is Magic]

..we've been locked out of the other thread for some reason. Good signing?

Certainly some promising signs from Youtube clips, some Mansfield fans saying its a loss, so he looks a half decent signing.

Shit off a shovel from the clips I've seen. The white Dumbuya.

[BigKeif]

I'm really happy with this signing. Don't know much about him but we've been lacking proper pacey wingers for quite some time now. Showing real intentions of pushing for promotion though by signing 2 players already.

[Sad-Rovers]

We've clearly seen the same clip. Great delivery considering the speed he's going too.
