Alarm bells ringing for me. Really not a Bowyer type of signing.
Quite the opposite for me, means the takeover must be very close.
I suppose the alarm bells for Bolder is why are we signing this bloke
Have Gallen and Bowyer been thinking out the box, did Sandgaard suggest that we take a look at him with Gallen having the final say, or has Sandgaard just gone ahead and signed him without the Management team agreeing to it
If its the latter Id be surprised but is it a sign of things to come with Sandgaard's version of Charlton where he's not overly different to Roland, just without the network of clubs

I don't know if we can say that, considering that the only transfer policy Bowyer has operated under thus far is being given a handful of peanuts in gravel to scatter outside sparrows lane in the hope that a malnourished professional footballer snuffles up to them so Bowyer, Jackson & Gallen can wrestle them into submission. You might be right, but we don't know, really.
Exciting stuff and if we are looking at strikers then I found a gem at the weekend.
He’s young, Swedish and over 6’ tall. Made his breakthrough in the last couple of seasons and is popular at Halmstad. he scored 19 in 29 - admittedly a few penalties in there but it is his calmness in front of goal that catches the eye. His positioning is good but he doesn’t snatch at shots and places them. I see a shit ton of potential in him and it seems he would be under £200k
I have a mate who is a scout in Sweden and I asked him What he thought and he said “no way would he go to League 1 - he’s going higher than that. Herenveen are very interested and it’s a matter of time before he moves somewhere”
His name is Rasmus Weidesheim-Paul and I can’t bloody attach his YouTube video properly
Alarm bells ringing for me. Really not a Bowyer type of signing.
I'm not sure we truly know what a Bowyer type signing is as he's only ever been scratching around for freebies and loans. Given actual money to spend we might see a bit of a change in approach.

A league one team signing the guy who was the leading scorer in the Danish top division? Can't see why Bowyer wouldn't want him.
But the beauty of the Gallen / Bowyer partnership is they've primarily signed players not because of their previous achievements but how they fit in the squad
Its the same we saw with Chris Powell, the years we did nothing of note between them was larely because we went after random players without developing a system first, else the early Championship squads under Roland could have been class
You'd hope with Bowyer though that he's rubber stamped it, if either he or Gallen have done then I'll be happy
No way is this a Sandgaard signing, forced on Bowyer and Gallen. The guy's been living in the US for the last 30 years, so it's not as if he'll be an expert on Danish footballers.
It's possible that the Danish connection might be an encouragement for him to join us though

We don’t know anything yet, as you say there’s plenty of scenarios surrounding this potential signings.
What is obvious is Sandgaard is involved, we can worry about little problems later.

I shouldn't think so, on the face of it. Roland's idea was the 'talent farm' bring in promising young European professionals with some top club pedigree/international youth experience and developing them to sell on at top market prices.
Plus in the meantime to send over more experienced players that could be spared from Standard or STV (Buyens, Bulot, for example), to steady the ship while the youngsters gained their experience.
Schwartz is already 31 .... and doesn't fit that scenario. He's here to add firepower to a promotion campaign, surely?

In Denmark, he's nicknamed "Plaffeministeren" ....... the definite article "en" placed at the end of the word in the Danish language.
let’s be honest, we got the likes of Bulot, Texeira, Buyens out of it. And buying from abroad gave us Igor, JBG, Bauer, Sarr.....
Looking back we would kill for that kind of signing now

Is Ronnie Schwartz the 'eyebrow raising' signing?
Im not saying this guy won’t be a bad signing but I’d be more comfortable knowing Gallen had scouted him. I hope that’s the case.

Certainly think its a region worth trying to exploit again
By that logic if we got offered Messi on a free, we should reject him, because Gallen didn't scout him.
If we get offered the chance of signing a goal scorer and Gallen and Bowyer want him I don't understand the concern.

But joking aside Football scouting is a passion of mine and this guy looked very decent
