I'm not one for moaning about players when we don't even know that we're interested let alone signed them..... BUT... Aldershot didn't want him. Dag & Red didn't want him. Would this therefore be a good signing  or a bad signing   |

Isn't he someone we tried to bid good money for the season before last?

Yep we bid £50k for him apparently under Wilson, but he does have a massive attitude problem and I think he could be trouble in the dressing room and disrupt players. Has an eye for a goal though. Not convinced he would be right for us. |

Footballers are a funny old bunch. 'Oh I had offers from better League One teams but I chose Dagenham & Redbridge... In hindsight it wasn't a good idea....'  |

Would this therefore be a good signing or a bad signing Who knows, look at Parkin. Brilliant for us, didn't cut it elsewhere (though injury did play a big part). Regardless, if we are serious about going up then the stats don't look good enough for this to be a player we'd bank a promotion challenge on. Then again, I don't know whether our budget is sufficient for better anyway. There is nothing to suggest this is the case, but my paranoia makes me hope this isn't PMSL agency pushing players on the club. |

He's nothing to do with that agency.

Easy to make judgements from the comfort of your laptop. I would rather trust our scouts etc. Looking at our woeful attacking last season he might be exactly what he want.

Who knows
Indeed, but I'd be encouraged if we do beat off the likes of D and R and capture Marvellous Marvin's signature. He's the sort of thing we need, my fear with di Canio, is that we'll end up with a job lot of Prem kids and Carlos Kickaballs, totally unsuited to a wet Tuesday night in Accrington. |

This happens with a lot of our potential signings. Almost all of them get written off by our fans for one reason or another. We have to be realistic here, we are in League 2. |

Based upon this statement then Pericard was exactly what we wanted then as his scoring record was similar and his ability was scouted by our own scouts. |
