Whilst he may have scored well for Barnet this season, in his last 2 tries in league football (with Portsmouth and Northampton) he failed to score, and is this tweet has any truth in reality, if you have a player who is willing to take such action just to get their way, that's not exactly the mentality we need in a squad of very tightly knit players, which is totally integral to our success.

Looking at his stats he has done alright in the National League. However he has yet to prove he can score goals on a regular basis at league two level. He should fit in quite nicely with us!!!

With one goal in our last 5 matches (and that direct from a corner) it's understandable that Matt might want to try something different. If you listen to his post-match interviews, he regularly bemoans 'lack of quality in the last third'. Interestingly worded 'tweet' - it doesn't say that that the player has 'threatened' to go on strike if not allowed to leave - just that he 'may' go on strike.

If there's any truth in the story, I'd need some convincing that this is the player to solve our goalscoring problem. He's had fourteen clubs (including loans) in the past ten years, and will be 30 in February. Looks like another journeyman striker who can score a few in the National League but isn't quite up to EFL standard.

Blessed is the person who having nothing to say abstains from giving us wordy evidence of the fact.

We have allways got goals from around the pitch rather than from a couple up front, it's been that way for a while now.
So with so many of our midfield and influential players out it's no surprise there has been a struggle with goals. It did not help when we lost Tanto who we have not managed to replace. It seems that perhaps Matt has not got faith in Topi or others he brought in, at least for the immediate solution, who have only really been warming the bench.
As for Twitter posts, take a hand full of salt, though I am sure we are fishing about.

I can't recall any signing we've made based on a "football insider" rumour, or actually from any rumour on social media posts. So totally agree. A lot of these rumours are started by the player and/or respective agent to command a better transfer elsewhere or to try and link players to club to improve their own contracts. I'm still amazed at how many people still fall for this nonsense.

You mean, on the day the club announced the signing ?

Please feel free to find any "rumours" that didn't take place on the day of the signing, literally announced by the club a few hours later (as in the time it took for Tony Dolbear to write up the story around his day job).
