Is supposedly the player that is signing today. A central defender who played for Rotherham but was on loan to Aberdeen for the past two seasons. Only 23 years old and I'm pretty sure Warburton knew him from his Watford days [Post edited 2 Jul 2019 15:56]

Spoken to my Rotherham mate about this today and he's perplexed. Says he's not Championship standard. |  | | |

Ex-Tottenham youth team player. Don't think he's ever played centre forward before. |  | | |

Hard to find much wholehearted praise for him anywhere but Warbs seems convinced. The kind of deal we were warned about...
Squad filler maybe worth a punt though and beggars can't be choosers this season I suppose. Not sure what this means for Hall however, even in making occasional cameos. If his career's over maybe let the last year of the contract go eh...? |  | | |

I have to admit I have never heard of him but the fact he couldn't get in the Rotherham team the last 2 seasons is a worry |  |

I do think we still need another CB. At the moment even two injuries at the back leaves us woefully short and we don’t even have Cousins as emergency right back.
If he’s free and cheap he might be useful.
Also remember v similar reviews coming from everyone when we signed Hall. |  |

I think we can take 'free and cheap' as a given |  | | |

"his father Tim was academy business manager at Watford"....the same academy Mark Warburton was working at?
Aberdeen fans seem to think he is shite. Oh well, give everyone a chance and all that |  |

Given Hall is permanently injured doesn't that make him 3rd choice? | | | |

Pretty sure hes only signed as cover and presume he is cheap as chips. Does smell of a bit of a Warburton backhander though that we were warned about by his previous clubs but hey ho. Give the bloke a chance at least | | | |

Hard to work this one out. If we are so keen to save wages etc why are we signing what appears to be a pub player? |  | | |
| Dominic Ball on 16:40 - Jul 2 with 4014 views | LowerloftLad |
okay im starting to worry now this sounds like a complete panic signing
that rotherham side that got hammered a few years back went and signed a load of scottish players that were not championship quailty |  |

Has Gary Penrice been abducted by aliens or is it just a monumental coincidence that he's found a load of players that have played for MW before?
Seems we're still talking the talk. | |

That's my big fear in all of this. Exactly the sort of 'what manager wants manager gets' player that will be left hanging around picking up his money for the last 18 months of his deal when we change the manager again. We're meant to be saving money, not stocking up on fourth choice centre backs because the bloke who's in charge at the moment knows him and his dad. | | | |

Yes, it does appear that every player we are signing has a connection. |  | | |
