Apparently the go-to ITK on Grimsby's forum says Danny Johnson is Swindon bound. Loose link of course but a link nonetheless.

I could have put it in the former Swindon players thread, but seems that penalty villain and chief wind up merchant Harry M hasn't endeared himself to Hibs again. Can't really see much way back for him given his personality. Perhaps a season long loan to us next season might be an option? https://www.scotsman.com/sport/football/hibs/hibs-ponder-next-harry-mckirdy-move-after-latest-social-media-faux-pas-41394780 goals and probably about 5th or 6th choice. |

It’ll be Supermarine and guest slots in night clubs for him in a few years. Naturally I’d take 2021/22 McKirdy back. I just don’t think we (or anyone else) is likely to see 2021/22 McKirdy again. |

Flynn seems a bit more disciplinarian than Garner. Not sure a return would work out well!
That said, I'd give it a go.

Danny Johnson strikes me as an old Luke Jephcott. Not sure I see the point.
We need a big, strong target man IMO.

Would certainly fire up the atmosphere at the CG if nothing else! If Garner fancies it, Colchester could be a destination. |

I was speaking to a fellow fan before the Vale away leg about Harry, and I said he'd be out of league football within 5 years. Even though we were shite this season, he would've been better off sticking around. Having said that, not sure how much Morris would've put up with! |

Why not both? I'm not sure Austin for another year is the right play anyway. |

The problem with LJ was that we just never really played to his strengths. Plymouth fans before we signed him said he was a fox in the box and not much else. I think his link up play was pretty good, but ultimately he was pretty wasted in what we were trying to do. I'd happily take DJ on a free. 12 goals for Flynn last season and if Flynn can get the best out of him I don't see why not. Would Jamille Matt and Danny Johnson be a decent pair. I know some people don't like Flynn using his filofax to get players he's worked with before, and at 30 and 33 are not spring chickens but I wouldn't be disappointed if we went down that route. |

I think that's a bit harsh. He's only 23 and has nearly 50 career goals to his name. 18 goals in league one in the 202/21 for Plymouth shows he knows where the goal is. I'll admit his spell at us was pretty disappointing but I don't think you can write him off as being absolutely crap based on that. |

Corrected. I think he will score goals in L2 under the right style and tactics. |

Someone like Joshua Umerah from Hartlepool is top of my list for the type of player we need. A big battering ram to occupy a few defenders.
