Would Benyon come to us though in our current predicament ?
I mean, he could be playing in league 2 next season with us! Would it be seen as a step up or sideways ?

Well do we pay more than Torquay? Therefore, whatever league we are in, I can't see it being an issue. |

we need someone else for him to play alongside, someone like Kuqi or Adebola
I know nothing about the lad, except that he's scored a few this season - is he more Cox than Allison then, size wise? |

I expect we'll be heavily linked and he'll sign for Huddersfield.

Not denying we're a bigger club but maybe he has aspirations to play at a higher level, i.e. not in league 2 with us. Our league position may put him off ? |

Neither Cox & Allison both had the physicality to provide goals for themselves. Benyon definitely needs a more physical partner to work off of. Whilst he's scored a few goals this season they've all been poachers goals inside the box. If you Youtube him you can see some of the goals he's scored. I worry for the lad tbh because it may take time for him to adjust and i know some of our fans will expect a lot from him and when he doesn't provide the goals will turn on him quickly. |

He's a small fella at 5'9 so more like Cox. |

Height wise maybe but he won't create his own goals like Cox could |

The talk was that Torquay were waiting to see if they got through, which would have earned them £180k in prize money, allowing them to stave off his sale for a while. I'd imagine he's on the cards to be signed tomorrow now, given we have previously bid for him when we weren't quite so desparate.

He was pretty quick to get involved in the mandatory 'handbags' that preceeded the Crawley sending off. |
