the_mighty_bosh Posted July 19, 2019 Share Posted July 19, 2019 Credit where it's due, great video and a signing that I think could make a real impact. Pacy and a decent finisher from what I've seen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oldham82 Posted July 19, 2019 Share Posted July 19, 2019 Highly rated at maccesfield there gutted he had gone. Hopefully will bag alot of goals for us. Need another striker though or 2. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JTM Posted July 19, 2019 Share Posted July 19, 2019 Decent sign that but why only another one year deal? Couldn't we have given him at least 2? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BP1960 Posted July 19, 2019 Share Posted July 19, 2019 Seems quick, strong and shoots on sight. one footed perhaps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And if he turns out to be less than what we expect, people will moan that he got a two year deal. It's no-win, no-win situation with some fans.

Wardie Posted July 19, 2019 Share Posted July 19, 2019 Sorry, I didn't mean that to sound like it did. Good luck to the lad, here's hoping he does the business. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vera looked to have suffered a bad injury in the last friendly, might not see him for a while. Two new strikers if the Benin lad has also signed.

Even so, it's not good to have practically every contract ending at the same time. Corney resorted to this, and we ended up with nearly a whole new squad each season. The better players leave, and it's impossible to build a decent squad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crusoe Posted July 19, 2019 Share Posted July 19, 2019 Yeah, I agree. Slightly surprised it wasn't two years. It's possible that Wilson (and Mills) only wanted one-year deals so they could move next summer or demand an uplift to re-sign, but still. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chickenbaltipie Posted July 19, 2019 Share Posted July 19, 2019 Looks a decent acquisition, seems to pressurise defenders from the front, little bit of a Dwight Gayle swagger about him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikeroyboy Posted July 19, 2019 Share Posted July 19, 2019 Quite a promising video. Sharp finishing even with some defensive howlers. Also some decent through ball. Long time since we signed an experienced, in form striker at our level. Our owner should be in his comfort zone with contracts, perhaps nothing to worry about there. Championship next target after promotion to L1 isn’t it? May need to upgrade sooner rather than later. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Londonboy Posted July 19, 2019 Share Posted July 19, 2019 Wilson looks a good signing with a decent proven scoring record at L2 level so very happy to get him on board. You'd hope we could create more chances for him than Mac did and maybe he can score the 15-20 goals we will need to push us towards the top end of the league. Partnered with Desire, if he's signed has some potential (more than OG and Vera anyway!!) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's no-win, no-win situation with some fans. I get that, but signing another of the league's teams top scorers and it being a decent signing for us was just hoping for 2. He's here anyway let's hope he's as decent a signing we think he is Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Correct, he was visibly struggling at Curzon with his ankle, both AL and ML were in attendance that day and I was staggered he signed never mind was offered a two year deal, probably came recommended by Rhodes and has to be one of our biggest failures ever.
