Not good reading

Maybe he isnt better than harper, harper may have wanted to leave and be first choice

Aslong as he puts in good performances in a Walsall shirt, that’s all that matters for me.

Looks like a squad filler.

I’ll never knock a tryer Bags, if he gives his all for the club, that’s all you can ask for.

I have a theory i think Harper signed up on a decent wage so Grant has moved him on and brought Furlong in on a lower wage. To allow some wriggle room in the budget for another attacking player.

what if we get promoted and we’ve got league 2 players on 2/3 year deals who can’t make the step up? Maybe he’s good enough for league 2 but not league1? Then it would suit both. Hancock started the season well anyway.

Definitely needs more wages for this forward we’re gonna sign. Good business sense. Harper was 2nd choice LB so no doubt Furlong is on a bit less

Good pedigree, although I know nothing about him, bar what I’ve just read. Could be a good ā€˜un, and most importantly, he’s buzzing.

I’ve no complaints with the signings they’ve made so far. I’m showing faith.

Let’s hope he takes us the final 220 yards.

Bit underwhelmed don’t think he is that quick
