Skalak looks to be a big upgrade on Elvis and will put Murphy, Lua Lua and Knockers under pressure. Well done BHAFC! Great signing! NOW 2 1/2 hrs to get that elusive striker!

Latest tweet from club suggests this is the big signing and there is nothing more tonight "this is the one you have been waiting for"

 

[Cadiz Seagull]

Sounds like a good signing. Well done the club. And under the radar until pretty recently.

Am I right in saying if we took Murray or Ulloa on loan today they wouldn't be available for the playoffs? If so, that would explain why we haven't signed an out and out striker; as I understand it we can still do that after today. It wouldn't make sense to bring either in and not have them for the playoffs, if that's where we end up.

Underwhelming if true.

Can I go to bed now?

Looks good on the video released by the club. Takes a mean free kick.

To be fair, every single player we've signed since Stephen bloody Dobbie has looked liked Messi in their 'best of' compilations.


Edit: take that back. He does take a mean free kick!

I don't know much about him either but if CH rates him then that is good enough for me

That's the right answer

So we may have been waiting for a "big" name, but this guy sounds very good. And had any of us heard of Knockheart? And look how pleased we are with him.

 

[deletebeepbeepbeep]

Seems like more of a combatative gritty winger like Knockaert, just the type of player Hughton likes so that's a positive.

For everyone who is underwhelmed, what Championship clubs have signed a striker that you would have liked? And I am discounting Rhodes as the fee is completely unreasonable.

Everyone had heard of knockaert

Some people obviously think we are Barcelona, man u or even sheff wed lol!

LOL

Really? An integal part of a useful Czech international team and you're underwhelmed.
Wow.
Some people have incredibly high expectations. Not sure who you were hoping for but I'd say he's an impressive addition to our squad.

 

[RM-Taylor]

Jordan Rhodes has signed for Middlesbrough.

 

[Aveacarlin']

I am very encouraged by what Chris Hughton says about Jiri in The Argus
