Fervid Posted January 22, 2021 Share Posted January 22, 2021 Some mouths on here said the same about big Bam when he signed, who the fuck is he where’s he from etc etc. Give the new lad a chance ffs, same old shit from some fans. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For that reason I've held back abit but he's 24 years old and hes only managed 2 career goals (for Eastleigh) and he's a striker that has to be a concern. Add into the fact the record of our esteemed sporting director, and the player he is replacing then you have to be abit worried. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
League one forever Posted January 22, 2021 Share Posted January 22, 2021 I don’t think it’s unfair to look at a players past and either be hopeful or pessimistic. He may score a few after not scoring in seven years. He might be shit. His record suggests the former, but time will tell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We just sold Rowe, one of our better players for peanuts and this guy has played just 10 professional games of football, that's not a lot for a 24 year old. That’s 8 more league games at 24 than the 31 year old we signed last January ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

deyres42 Posted January 22, 2021 Share Posted January 22, 2021 Calm down lads, we've signed hundreds of these types in recent times, he won't start more than 3 games before being released in the summer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"What is wrong with Urko Vera" At the end of the day, regardless of the past this guy may be good or he may be shit, as was the case when Rowe signed. I guess we'll find out in the coming weeks.

oafc1955 Posted January 22, 2021 Share Posted January 22, 2021 He’s been at the club for weeks so I trust a decision to give him a contract is based on his performances in training. Why, especially in this current climate, would they sign a player just for the sake of it?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the frustration is perhaps that we have been in terminal decline for years, are struggling to make any impression in the bottom tier and have just sold one of our better players and a proven goalscorer..... Bam is fabulous but do you honestly think he will be with us next season? We all support every player that plays for Latics but I think we all fear we know where this once great little club is heading Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chris15Arm Posted January 23, 2021 Share Posted January 23, 2021 I'd argue that a Premier league team saw enough to keep hold of him until 23/24 yr old despite him not being first team. Must have something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
