What a great day (hopefully). I don't know how the hell AK keeps doing this! He seems to be very good at getting players down here who on paper at least, are a class above what we have previously been able to attract. Karl Hawley is obviously a familiar name and would be a good signing, however the major coup which I cannot believe is that Callum Ball is willing to play for us. I have seen him play a couple of times and remember the Coventry fans at the time being very excited about having the kid on loan. Haven't got time to check it all out etc but I'm sure he had a bad foot injury which limited his appearances for Cov. I remember him being big and strong, probably not as good in the air as he should be for his height,(only slight criticism), but far better and quicker on the deck than you would first imagine. I will go as far to say in my opinion if he does sign and he is match fit, we will not only have the best target man in league 2 by some distance, but also one of the classiest players. No pi@@ing about here we are getting a lad who would start in the majority of league one sides on loan and probably some of the smaller championship clubs.
If Cov fans had a choice between a fit Callum Ball coming back to them or Mr Mansett I would think 90%
Would vote Callum.
I will believe it when it's on dot con, I am staggered, #bloody amazed
