If it is Denton we could nostalgically throw beer over his car when he first arrives. I’m sure he would appreciate that

That would be an interesting option. On the plus side, he always needs at least one defender assigned to him and is brilliant when helping out at the back.
On the other hand, he's not particularly mobile, certainly not speedy and although it is not usually his fault, playing with him often means lumping long balls, which isn't really his forte.

Of course he is a bogey man for us but I agree he is total trouble for defenders from start to finish in a way that Hanson wasn't ever. I'd forgive and forget if he came here.

Good player but don't think there's room for Burrow and Denton (or another target man) in the same team. Given a run in the team to build a partnership together Wright and Burrow should do well together. With Scott Pollock we've also got someone who can add goals from centre midfield, reminds me a bit of Simon Weatherstone.

I'm looking forward to seeing Gordon play.  I thought he was the stand out player against us for Stratford.

A weatherstone or two would be a real bonus.
