    Didn't think we'd be able to accomplish signing a new #1 this summer, so I'm very pleased. Never warmed to TK and felt like he never really warmed to this club either.

    Wait and see is the pragmatic view but the good news is that we’ve moved on from Kaminski and signed someone that has played in the championship , even if Wrexham have ditched him

    Anyone know if he can catch the ball?
    Seen enough punches, parries and flapping recently to last me a lifetime.

    So is he the first Arthur to play for us since Horsfield?
    I believe so. Unless you count Todd Arthur Lucien KANE.

    Welcome Arthur.

    Don’t know why I’m particularly pleased with this signing, but I am!, he’s been a real pain in the arse against us, hope he brings that for us!!

    Excellent, good signing and would be brilliant if he’s able to start on Saturday. 

    When was the last time Arthur O played a game ?

    If Big AO can be as successful as Joe Aribo and Ademola Lookman who both have represented Nigeria then this will be an excellent loan signing.

    Sometimes being somewhere you are wanted can make a player, feel like NJ will have really made it clear how much he is wanted, could be a perfect fit.

    Makes me even more happy we got him … and have to laugh at the prat who believes we will finish more than 20 points behind them … think they have a rude awakening facing them this season

    A very good goalie from what I've seen of him. 

    Hoping he'll feel like a big step up from what we've had recently.

    Hope he is as good as the great Hortha Arsefield.

    Better than Thuram-Ulien who not even ‘Alf a’ goalkeeper.

    With our 2 first choice keepers with such ‘traditional names’ as William and Arthur I’m surprised the marketing team haven’t declared it a nod to 1947 like the away kit 😉😀

    F*** 'em.

    With their superstar actor owners (Ryan Reynolds and the other one that no-one remembers) they can pretend they're in Marvel's "multi-verse" and they've still got him ...

    Seems a humble lad in the interview, although when these players are asked what they bring, I think it would be funny if they replied.. I think I’m fucking great and brillant at everything!!! 
    As I wrote that I said it in northern like the fella in Rita,Sue and Bob too!😂

    So why has he left high flying Wrexham? And if he's good, why have Wrexham let him go?

    Pleased with this, an upgrade on TK and likely within a reasonable shout of making it permanent if he does well. 

    Not paying out a fee for him now will hopefully allow us to spend on a right winger.

    Sorry if this has already been said but the Wrexham fans on Insta seem in the main to be gutted he’s gone

    Because the management team have decided to buy a GK from a prem team assuming he’s better.

    Many Disney fans are saying he’s not.
