hereford fan here just said as much, said he always scored good goals but must have added tap-ins to his game.
So him and Raffa both a little bit lightweight. One more striker to come then I reckon, plus a potential loanee nearer kick-off

Connell is actually a bit shit....ended up at Conference level as a consequence. Don't expect the new Cox or Austin here, maybe the new Jimmy Gilligan.

I was a bit meh when i first saw we had signed him, But just watched that video of some of his goals and can see that with decent service he could certainly notch a few

Don't really know much about him to be honest. If he is as light weight as people are saying we'll need a good target man for him to work off of

There's no question he's lightweight...just take a look at a picture.

But it's a striker we need, not a prop forward. As others have said, with the right partner he'll be just fine.

Is that a supposition, or have you seen him play? |

Tbf that picture is about 5 years old. And he's only just reached his physical peak now. |

Just watched some of the goals he scored and im struggling to work out if hes left or right footed he scored the majority of his goals with his left foot but the free-kick he scored he took with his right.
Looks a good signing to me

Reg could be right of course, only time will tell. But to say he's shit before he's even dotted the i's and crossed the t's!!!
