He came to Grimsby but was "proper poorly" with tonsilitis which then developed into glandular fever so the only impact he made was at the Princess Diana Hospital , he returned to Pompey but came back as a 93 day loan. I believe he was injured during a training session which meant he wasn't in contention to even warm the bench. Crap Town fans didn't seem to rate him as being any good even at L2 level.

Mmmmm? Marvellous
He's on trial with us, sign him up for a year, what have we got to lose?
If he rekindles some of the FLAIR in that video, then he is urely worth a punt.
Certainly another option in the arsenal. Better then Holroyd from what it seems....

Looks handy. Still, not the 25 goal a season striker we need so....blah, blah, blah. In all seriousness he does look good in that so worth a punt if he can fit/get into the team.

well he looked good last night out on the left and scored a brave goal with his head, give him a go....
Why? Holroyd scored masses of goals at youth and non-league football. Why is another player who scores goals at several levels below L1 football better than Holroyd? He may well be but I don't think a YouTube compilation of him scoring goals against lesser footballers justifies the claim - we'd need a bit more evidence.
I suspect that song is quite rude.
Re Glandular Fever (also know as The Kissing Disease!!) - my daughter had this. It takes 6 months to recover and can take a couple of years to get your full mojo back (leaves you prone to colds, you get tired very easily etc). Maybe affected him at his time at Grimsby.

I had Glandular Fever when i was 20 and it took me about 2 years to fully recover, and for 10 or so years my immune system was screwed and I would get Flu and colds constantly... I can see how this would have affected him for a long period of time!
Exactly, these youtube videos are generally made by the players agent, showing all the good things the player has done in matches. Half of what we saw was in parks football, so basically youth team level. Holroyd has scored regularly at Conference level which is obviosly a higher standard. I am not saying don't sign this player, but that these videos are misleading. You could make up a similar thing for Holroyd and it would be just as impressive, probably.

see first half he looked fantastic , but second half for me no one covered themselves in glory
he has serious potential - shame we've run out of pre-seasons to test with some of the more first team players really.
