This is probably instead... Eisa seeming like a one season wonder. Ajose decent at this level for a number of years

Mo Eisa will probably go to Lincoln now.

Yes, I anticipate this is instead of Eisa. Not sure he's a one-season wonder as he was quality. We'll see if his career takes off at Bristol City or elsewhere though.

Lee Bowyer has spoken quite well about us this season, complimented us after the FA Cup tie and said today

"To be fair to him he's been a great pro and a good person around the place, I can't knock him in any way. Hopefully he goes and scores goals and they get promotion. I wish him all the best."

Seems a natural finisher. All sorts of goals here - tap in, top-corner smasher, free-kick, peno, all sorts.

Probably Elsnik? Similar player to Grant maybe

Or Sweeny and sign a permanent CB

Why would we need to send any back ?
Can have up to 8 in the squad as long as we name no more than 5 in the matchday squad.
Why weaken the team when injuries and suspensions could then leave us short ?

Some signing that is! We're 6/1 to win the league, not bad odds them.

On paper a excellent signing .He has a reputation of being lazy and drifts in and out of games but a good signing none the less .

I'd keep Elsnik, he's a good player. Just because we have more than 5 doesn't mean we can't keep them in case we have injuries or suspensions.

I understand saying Walker there as some numpties were labelling him lazy earlier in the season, but I don't remember CJ ever being called lazy?

More about drifting in and out of games, which they do.

Wow, that must be a good proportion of his goals and they're all excellent. Looks like he has the swagger of a proper finisher. Exactly what we need.

He's only hit double figures twice, and one of those was eight years ago, but over his whole career he is a one in three, one in two and half starts.

He's scored a good amount of goals in league two and one, if flitcroft can get him firing like he has CJ then it'll be a very good signing.

apparently his contract is up at end of this season so maybe he'll try his damn hardest to try and earn a contract here?

Maybe Rose out on loan also to get a bit more game time and get more fired up.

These are his goals from 2015-2016 for Swindon when he was on fire



He's also scored against us this season.
