    Ivory Coast striker Aruna Dindane has joined the Nigels until the end of the season. Anyone remember him from Portsmouth?

    Throwing in kids with no experience at a point in the season where we are looking over our shoulder at the bottom teams would be catastrophic. Haven't heard of the fella but that's because I don't follow African or Moldovan football but he has international and first team experience so could be just what we need to steer us to safety. Bring in the kids when we are safe or have just missed out on the play offs :) .

    Going by their record he will banging them in for fun and sold next season for zillions.

  • Dindane...mmmm. when he first came to england i thought he had an excellent future..he seemed to adapt really well. Nice physical presence...not really a player with great awareness or clinical finishing but he is a player who makes chances and takes some because he is involved in play

    Hope he now falls off a cliff...stripey nigel ;)

    The new Claude Makalele. Probably.

    I'd like to see him play before I pass judgement. Good luck to the boy
  • I've just got a feeling about this one. He's going to be awesome.

    Burkina Faso lost narrowly in the African Cup final, and being a DM you'd guess he had a pretty important role in the team. He shouldn't be on a big wage so I don't think we have anything to lose here.

    good luck to him.

    whom has anyone else immediately below us in the league signed and how do they compare quality wise to the two guys that we have just brought in ?Probably not worth answering as between now and the end of the season we are all about to discover in any event.

    That just sounds a stupid thing to want to do. Why not just slag him off like the others on here?

    Good luck new Red warrior!

    Another player stuck at a hotel, someone go and cheer him up.

    Cheering up? Lets hope he just doesnt, in a moment of boredom, find this site and read some of the w***nky comments about him by people with no idea who he is.

    Welcome Florent, do well.
    You may have tumbled on the root of the "charltonisation" of players process... THIS BLOODY SITE! ;-)

    Will we ever see him play?

    How long before someone pops up with I_Saw_Rouamba_Play

    Asked Richard Cawley when he should be available , got a reply saying that he thought that the club only brought him in Incase of an emergency however he thinks that there is an option to sign him on a further deal

    Maybe they wanted a second defensive midfielder if Hughes wasn't up to it.

    He has to have played in over 75% of his nations "A" games in the last two years, which he has. And the nation has to be ranked above 75 in the FIFA rankings, which they are. Shouldn't have much problem getting a permit tbh.

    Don't think we would get a work permit if we said that to the UKBA.

    Seems like a sensible short-term contract to see if he settles and the posters on here who've seen him were impressed by his tournament performances.

    Meanwhile, here are a few pix of Moldova - and one from Tiraspol in the breakaway republic of Transdniestra. Officially still no photography permitted in this little Stalinist outpost. I gave the "border" guard an England shirt to ensure smooth transit and he hailed the next passing car and instructed the driver to drop me in the city centre. As someone suggested, should hopefully be a little easier settling in London.

    Hope we see Rouamba next week at some point. Good chance to see if he is worth a longer contract

    Doubt we'll see him. We snapped him up more with next season in mind as others were circling for him.
