Kayode Odejayi

[crodonilson]

One of my cousins from Huddersfield has text me and said we have made a bid of £100,000 for Kayode Odejayi of Barnsley, a powerful centre forward who can be a real handful.

Supposedly Slade has seen a lot of him whilst at Scarborough, Grimsby and Yeovil and has always been a fan but not been able to afford him. Now he has a bit of money he wants to add a real presence up front and Odejayi fits the bill.

What does everyone think??

I reckon it would be a cracking signing, Forster won't go on forever and Odejayi and Murray would be as good a frontline in League One as you're likely to see.

 

[Ernest]

He is useless

 

[Simon Morgan]

I think he's a bit of a donkey and there are better strikers that we could sign.

 

[Brighton Breezy]

Right up there with the likes of Mark McCammon...

 

[SirDouglasLoft]

If true we're definitely not getting Owusu.

Took the words right out of my mouth.

 

[Marshy]

powerful yes, but dosent know how to score goals

 

[Jimmy Grimble]

About as useful up front as a comb on Slade's bedside table

 

[withdeanwombat]

No,no...........please no.

Remember THAT miss in the FA Cup semi-final? Long John Silver could have scored.

 

[Frutos]

I think we'd be better off with me up front if he's the alternative.

 

[Easy 10]

13 in 38 at Forest Green Rovers
30 in 148 at Cheltenham
4 in 67 at Barnsley

This is the guy who scored the winner against Chelsea in the FA Cup last year. Fairly piss-poor scoring record though, can't say I'd be thrilled.

is this the guy who scored when Barnesly beat chelsea in the cup

Yes.
Yes it is.

 

[hans kraay fan club]

Didn't he score for Barnsley against Chelsea?

 

[hans kraay fan club]

I think it might have been in the FA Cup?

 

[Easy 10]

Thats the fella, he did. Yes.

 

[alex_brighton]

anybody remeber that SITTER he missed in the fa cup semis against cardiff?
a donkey of the hightest order

It would appear from the various rumours about signings that Slade wants a big target man for next season. Are we heading for a season of route one? I wont object if it achieves promotion.

 

[Lady Whistledown]

Personally I would be decidedly underwhelmed if we signed him.

A striker who has a history of plodding around the lower leagues, not scoring very many goals.

 

[Giraffe]

Personally I would think he would give us something we haven't got at the moment, assuming Owusu is not coming. Makes sense to have the big man option available. I would doubt he would be our main striker though ahead of Forster and Murray. But a useful player to bring on.
