I think it will be easier for most of us if we just call him Frankie

That header he scored against us was a beauty

[MachoMadness]

Scored past us for Lincoln a few weeks back. His only goal of a stop-start spell at Lincoln. Know nowt about him other than that.

[RugbyRover]

Looked good against us which doesn't say I lot I know. Bit surprised Lincoln let him go.

Everton may have recalled him and Lincoln had no say

[LincsRover]

Sounds a good start, I remember him for Lincoln and he looked good. One of my Lincoln supporting mates can’t understand why he didn’t stay and is, to say the least, disappointed, he thought he’d go to a championship side when he left!

[mushRTID]

He looked very good against us!

[roversdude]

Is he cup tied

[ncRover]

Contract at Everton ends this summer

[donnievic]

Is he cup tied

yes in both cups

[steve@dcfd]

Is he cup tied

Not sure but that's the least of our worries he can play in the league.

He’s also the one who missed the open goal against us. But looks a decent prospect and here’s hoping he can have the same impact street had

A bit about him here from a Lincoln Fan

That was the worst miss I've ever seen in pro football. It was an empty net with no-one near him.

Good header he scored though.

Conga in the South anyone?

Do-do-do Francis Ok or on kwo

[jmt23]

Probably knew he was coming to us and wanted to prove to Grant he’s a Viking and will never be an Imp.
 It was a bad miss though, thank god. Can you imagine the melt down on here if that was Hanlan.

Great signing going by what little I’ve seen.

The bewildering thought process of football fans. Can’t get a game for Lincoln gut thought he’d go to a championship team!

[LincsRover]

Sounds like a lack of starts as he played 20 times for Lincoln but only started 3. Sounds up for it, welcome to Donny & bring your best scoring boots! 

[steve@dcfd]

According to Stacey's article he might do okay at a bottom of league 1 club.

Exactly my thought when he sad it! They’re doing well this season but a good few are going all billy big b*ll*x already and seem to think automatics is a given!

Same with people thinking kyle hurst still should be given a chance her when he struggled at gateshead

Yo Frankie !!

[karldew]

Can see it now…

Fans belting out “Do-do-do, Francis Oko-ron-kwo” whilst forming a big conga in the stands at Peterborough away. Not sure if it’ll be the goal that keeps us up, or the one to get us in the play-offs

I'm not expecting much from him, I hope to be proved wrong on it for sure! I've asked someone very much up to date with things at Everton (at all levels) and he's not exactly told me to expect much. I really hope the lad goes onto great things with us.

[CJK]

I liked the look of him in the game at Sincil Bank. I think that might be an astute signing.

[Barmby Rover]

Rob Street, was a bit of a dead loss at Lincoln, till he came here. Don't underestimate his abilities until you see him over 5-6 games. Fingers crossed he can make a difference.
