Gaetan Bong signs 2 year deal [Flair]

[Juan Albion]

Is he related to Kevin Phillips Bong?

That's a slightly silly post, if you don't mind me saying so.

Bong Left back Rosenior right back = Calde reserve left back & Bruno reserve right back (hopefully)

And Chicksen? We need at least one more centre back too, possibly two.

There is F all wrong with that

Another solid signing in a position we haven't had a player for 3 years. I really don't know what people expect on here, I don't understand the moaning.

Who were people expecting us, a team that finished 20th last season, to sign for a left back? He is a left back who has now got a small bit of experience in the Championship and he was free. Imagine if we had splashed a few million on him, then him being a flop. It's not the most important position on the pitch, and we have someone who will do a job.

And the songs will be great!

So, Long Bong can't go wrong, and when on song he'll bang our gong.

I think Calde will become the new OGH. A utility player who we can bring on no matter where we need a player and who will run themselves in to the ground for the club.

Didn't Hart play a run of games at RB one season? Maybe up front is next on the list for Calderon.

1. I'm just glad we've signed a Cameroon left- back who isn't Assou-Ekotto.
2. Surely this means Liam Rosenior gets the nickname 'BIng'?

 

[Sheebo]

I've seen half a dozen tweets from mainly Wigan fans saying he's a good signing and was v good for them and about 3 Wigan fans saying he's gash so guess it will be a case of wait and see

Irrelevant, probably, but the words Assou-Ekotto always makes me think of a dessert in a decent restaurant. I'd probably choose the cheese though.

Happy Birthday!

 

[OzMike]

Well at least we haven't spent any money on signing him.

Yes, saving it for a couple of proven players or just saving it.
Ref. Toko.

Even then you'd need to watch out for his cousin, Ossau-Iraty.

On topic: have to confess I'd never heard of him, so I've got nothing to add to the conversation about his relative merits. However, it's a good thing yo have our own LB again, and he does indeed look flair.

Looks a solid signing. Loving how the club keep coming up with surprises. Top work keeping everything guarded.

 

[Tony Towner's Fridge]

So we have Gaetan and Daniel Akindayini with his very impressive gold Rolex. All we need now is Sepp Blatter and Katie Price and we will have

Bong,Bling, Bung and Bang

Gaetan my son!

Off to get my Bong tattoo done tomorrow. Might put it next to my Toko one just underneat Harley.

Hope your tattooist can spell better than you

With Rosenior able to cover left back, does this mean the end of Chicksen's days at the albion
