A big strong lad formally at Harrogate Town.

Lacks experience but could be a right handful for defenders at NSL level. Lets hope so.

He certainly is a big looking lad, but looks more like a manager at Tesco's than a football player!

Still, I was wrong once before.

I am not expecting anything too fantastic, the lad is only 20 a couple of months ago and has never scored in mens football. He has four goals in the under 23 team, which is a poor level.

He obviously has no experience or leadership qualities BUT we wish him well for the next month and hope he finds the back of the net.

Enjoy your stay, good luck.

Any relation to Femi who plays at Boreham Wood?

Could add some spice to the 01MAR fixture if so.

Certainly looks to be powerful and athletic. Derby wouldn't sign him if they didn't think he had potential, and training at their club would have developed him, no doubt. Good luck in yellow Manny!

To be fair we didn't know what to expect from Sinclair Armstrong either. These sorts of players can be anything.

Sometimes it's Sinclair. Other times it's Rob Street.

Still, he seems a big lad and clearly we've been crying out for somebody to ease the pressure on Cooke a bit.
