Good luck to the lad.

Sounds a bit like Worsul4eva’s fairy tale about Cook at Accrington.

I know, its a ridiculous thought, it may even help our defence with the ball not coming straight back at us, how about that one

Williams had a poor game - made a few key mistakes!

Still have, unfortunately!!

Interesting piece that…

Clearly his injuries limited more regular stints in the Bantams starting line-up and we have to pray he’ll stay fit as we look to hit the second half of the season but it’s obvious they saw some great performances from him (incl of course vs us last January…)

Fingers crossed he enjoys another promotion this season!

Good read that, thanks for the link.

Brings back some bad memories though. This guy owes us :rofl:

MS said Hancock would be fit to play in the Vertu trophy next Tuesday so in that sense Okeke does not need replacing. However the fact he can cover both sides means he will be missed.Whether we can find a similar player is doubtful for the money we would wish to pay when we have other priorities.

Perhaps it isn’t his job to score goals. The same as Josh Gordon. :slightly_smiling_face:

Yes it’s possible. Having scored 2 against us I was surprised he hadn’t scored more.

But his stats aren’t too bad on closer inspection and he seems to be a popular signing so let’s just see how he does

I wonder what sort of fee we paid for him?

I believe Clarke was originally signed as a RWB, but Barrett’s form has meant he’s only got time on the pitch in midfield (apart from a couple of very brief appearances at WB - mainly in the Vertu games), so it’s hard to say whether he could adequately fill the hole if we lose or drop Barrett for a few games. Of course you’d then also have the question as to whether he’s more useful to us there or in the middle where we’ve been using him.

Overall though, with Hancock back (covered by Harper) and Clarke/Adomah both potential cover for Barrett (especially if we strengthen in midfield and up front), then I’d have to say Okeke is not such a big loss in the scheme of things.

Probably around 100k at a guess I’d say as he’s out of contract this summer.

Great signing to start the transfer window with obviously injury record is a cause for concern but hopefully stays fit and will no doubt be a much needed boost to our midfield.

At least his minutes won’t be being managed by another club.
