In Powell we trust. Why wouldnt you have a look at one of the stars of the African Nations Cup and signing him up makes sense because you'd think he would interest other clubs. Could be the new Jorge Costa. Hope to get a look at him over the next 7 days.
Or we find out he's better than what we've got, sign him up to a longer deal in the summer and get promoted next year.
I say we wait and find out first, and leave the judgements of whether its a "complete waste of time and effort" until we know for sure.
I am still waiting for Alonso to lead us to the promised land.
We made about 20 signings last season and you're still bitching about the only one that didn't really come off. I just don't get some people's relentless negativity.
I work with two African guys. One from Nigeria and the other Zimbabwe. They both follow African football very closely and say that this guy will end up playing either in the Premier League or in Spain. Hope they are right.

How does this stop other clubs signing him ? He'll be available on a Bosman in a month !
I find it really odd, given that the home office are quite strict when it comes to permits for non-EU players, that they issued one for such a short term contract - it's hardly a ringing endorsement of his abilities.

We're not Spanish.
No, but our new owners will be... according to the friend of a friend of a milkman who does a round near the house of someone who knows Slater according to someone who read it on a website once. Or so I hear.

Why wouldn't he get a work permit? He meets all the criteria for one.

Complete waste of time and effort that could have been focused on bringing a junior in.

Anyone been down to Sparrows to check out the player in training?
