Brighton are closing in on the signing of Barnsley striker Chris O'Grady. #barnsleyfc #bhafc

 

[KJP]

Who?

 

[TSB]

Who?

Scored fifteen goals for a woeful Barnsley side last year. Unlikely to cost much. Could be a good signing.

How miserably underwhelming. 28 year old journeyman

 

[Smirko]

Doesn't he have a brother called Toxteth....!?

 

[Bra]

Could be good but not in replacement for ulloa

 

[The Tactician]

Honestly, I'm not blown away.

 

[BASINGSTOKESEAGULL]

If he signs to be in competition with Ulloa, good signing. If Ulloa leaves and he's the replacement, underwhelming.

 

[Surf's Up]

No no no no no , please no.

 

[Springal]

What a big **** you from the board.

Suspect likely he was lined up to play with Leo but, after Leicester's renewed interest, we'll be after another striker too.

Ulloa is clearly leaving.

 

[S'hampton Seagull]

Doubt he will be the Ulloa replacement, this will be as well as surely?

 

[The Modfather]

distinctly underwhelmed

Absolutely. My first reaction was not great. But, looking at his record for Barnsley, he could be a good addition to the squad. If Ulloa goes, I assume we will buy another striker to compete with him and CMS.

For all those who will have a go, he scored more goals than any of our players last season in a relegated team!

 

[matbha]

wow pathetic is that what the **** is going on

 

[Thunder Bolt]

Replacement for Hoskins, I would have thought.

 

[carteater]

I don't mean to offend anyone but - some people on here need to stop wetting themselves, spend ages moaning about no signings then when there are signings you moan, yeah sure he's a "28 year old journeyman" the fact is that he scored more goals for a relegated side in the championship than Ulloa did in the championship, so don't get all pissy, I'm sure he'll do well..., besides we don't even know if its just a wind up yet...

Sadly that appears to be the best season of his career, managed 9 in 51 the season before.
