barnes signs

[Withdean Wanderer]

He definately isnt a 20 + goals a season man ! But will contribute , no doubt 1

Agreed.

His goals against Bristol Rovers and Saints last year were quality though - more of the same would be nice!

 

[Braders]

He's nowhere near as good as some of you make out...

Despite my rather harsh words on the other thread, I am quite pleased with this signing, as long as Barnes is seen only a squad striker who chips in with a few goals, and isn't going to be relied on as the much talked about 20+ goal a season man.

I reckon that is roughly the case , I get what Churley means (I think)

Barnes is NOT the answer to all our problems , however he is part of the solution to dealing with our upfront problem

now we have the basis of our squad strikers - we need our star striker now

it's a step in the right direction

 

[The Wizard]

If he plays regularly he will score 20+. I'd put money on it.

 

[MikeySmall]

Lloyd was still the chief scout at the time. I did have the same thought as you but that might just be wishful thinking for Gus' judgement.

A Cambridge supporting mate speaks very highly of him. Holroyd that is. Not Barry Lloyd

 

[Braders]

If he plays regularly he will score 20+. I'd put money on it.

he's good for 10-15 , obviously depends who is upfront with him throughout the season I guess

Conference football, i believe ? Bit different...and as much as i really want him to do it...i just dont see it.

As i say, maybe a good pre season with Gus and Tanno MAY help, but im not so sure

 

[Worthai Seagull]

Lets not move onto a Holroyd thread now ...this is about Barnes !

 

[Southwick_Seagull]

No chance, good squad member and if he came as cheap as suggested then a very good bit of business. Still need another forward though as mentioned.

 

[Braders]

LEAST INTERESTING PIECE OF SPECULATION EVER

just been reading the Plymouth forum and they seem to reckon he's getting the number 9 shirt for us

sorry for wasting your time with that , however given that you are reading NSC you must be used to this sort've shite

EDIT - just seen the other thread on this - feel free to throw "Fixtures" and all that bollocks at me..

 

[seagullsdaz]

Great signing, Was impressed with Barnesy last season and 4 goals in 8 last season suggests to me this lad is gonna chip in with a fair few!

 

[turienzo's lovechild]

pleased with that, i'd quite like one more goal MONSTER to complete the set

 

[Gerbil]

Well you would be wasting your money.
Barnes is good, but won't get 20 a season.

 

[questier]

Barnes signed, hopefully Greer on the way. Things are starting to look very promising

 

[Jamie_Seagull]

Brilliant.

 

[Blue and White Tiger]

Yipee!

 

[Notters]

four i think;

centre half
striker
left winger
attacking center midfield

Jesus people, give it a rest. I think we've easily got a good enough squad to chase for the playoffs yet I have no doubt Gus will sign more players.

 

[Notters]

I'm surprised so many think he's not capable of scoring 20 too! I'm with the wizard here.

 

[Psychobilly freakout]

Cmon....calm down. Is there ,really any need for this rubbish.

Talk football, not this nonsense .

Worthai, Its not nonsense fella he is a student and does support Palarse so therefore must be a retard.I dont go on palace web sites full stop never mind just comment to get a reaction.Maybe i did bite, but I had a bad day.


So glad he signed 15 this season easy.

 

[Albumen]

4 in 8 speaks for itself. He knows where the goal is and can only improve. Another good signing Gus.

 

[JJ McClure]

Very pleased to have him back, but agree with those saying we still need another striker, preferably with a bit of higher level experience.
