How about welcome Jordan show us what you can do.

I always remember the question marks over Pearce when he signed from Conference side Torquay. From that lesson, I'll judge Bowery in a Stags shirt.

You are what people call 'entitled'. Other clubs are scrambling around to try and keep financially afloat and we're making signings and you're moaning!!!
I've was impressed at this signing. He's played premier League football, played a lot of football in the league above, made over 100 appearances for Crewe, and joins from a team in L1.
You'd probably complain if we signed Giroud saying he doesn't score enough goals in the World Cup finals he played in.

Cheers. Let’s examine what you’ve said
He’s played premier league football. True. 6 years ago, 19 apps, 0 goals, mentioned by plenty of Villa fans as their worst player ever.
Made over 100 apps for Crewe. True. 118 apps, 23 goals. We already have a striker with a similar but better goal return. Crewe fans says he’s a hard worker but not a goal scorer. Fair enough, may fill the void left by Davies have some have said, but Davies hardly played so not much of a void filled. Also Crewe have done a lot better since he left.
Joins from a team in League One. True. Had played 59 times in League One scoring 10 goals, 8 of them were 8 years ago.
When you add in that’s he’s 28 and that we’ve probably paid a fee for him given he was still under contract at MK Dons, hopefully you can see why some may be underwhelmed, especially given some of the names which have been mentioned lately.
He may well turn out to be a good signing, and I will give him a chance as I do every player, but forgive me if I’m not doing cartwheels at the moment. At the moment it’s a solid but unspectacular signing.

Not every signing will be spectacular, do you really expect to be impressed and jump about every time a player signs? were not Man City. Hes the type of striker we will need, also a free transfer according to bbc notts. He looked really good for crewe and will bring something to this side.
