Great news to come home from work and find. Sounds like we have a good player on our hands, think Hereford possibly missed a trick and we've done well to poach him. Like the lads comments on the OS as well, thinking positive and looking to push on from last year. ML has slowly amassed a decent looking squad, one which i think can do a good job for us. I think the main issue will be giving them time to blend in together as there's quite a few new players involved, and quite a few who have been on the preripheries for a while. Will be interesting to watch. Hopefully we can hit the ground running though while Rovers struggle to mix and we can give Bucks some stick.

I also like that we've been giving out two year contracts. I know it can be a risk if you get stuck with players on long contracts who aren't any good but i personally think it shows faith in the players, and negates the risk of them having a great year and leaving for nothing, like Branno.

Superb, I really believe we now have a side that can do as well as last season. Excellent keeper, solid defence and competitive midfield that has a fair bit of versatility. The key now will be whether the front line fulfil their potential.

Last year we relied heavily on loans to supplement the side - this year we can use the loan system sparingly and hopefully find that extra spark if needed.

I saw the thread title and thought we've signed a minor !

I read on and twigged : Morris Major (signing).

A good signing, I reckon...and it should keep Danny Stevens out of the team too.

Looks another promising signing to me. Now really positive about this season

Here are a few opinions from Scunthorpe fans. Not universally positive, but they’re from a club used to being at the top of League 1 and bottom of the Championship: http://boards.footymad.net/forum.php?tn ... 2116892880" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

For those like me with too much time on their hands, here are a couple of his goals from their League 1 promotion campaign in 2008/09 - fast-forward to 1:58 and 2:20. The second one reminds me a little of Jason Fowler: " onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

He scores Scunthorpe’s 3rd in this one: " onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

Look forward to seeing him play tomorrow night. Running Tully ragged shouldn’t be too taxing for him!

Nice one. I'm happy with that. Fingers crossed Martin 'The King' Ling has amassed a half decent squad - quite an achievement given the general mood a couple weeks back!

This is an excellent signing - he looked full of potential tonight as well as scoring a very good goal

Thought that Morris looked quality last night and a lot taller than I thought he was. Gets hold of the ball and is seeing the run of players brilliantly as he did on a couple of occasions last night. Also took his goal well with his not so strong right foot.
