I am very hopeful for Novak, he seems to have a very good reputation in the game and is widely tipped to succeed.
I am sure that LC will give him a fair chance too.

sorry to be negative but i doubt he will get 6. Firstly cos he will be 3rd or 4th choice. And secondly cos he is makin a seriously big step up. But i am hoping he will be good. But if hes not then i wont be complaining

But if hes not then i wont be complaining If he's quick and sharp with a good pre season he will be on 12 goals by Christmas. Against all the old farts running around in a lot of Division 1 teams all you need is speed, guts and an eye for goal - sounds like he has them all. Good luck Novak |

well i saw him play at gateshead vs stalybridge he is being seriously overrated. I cant stress this enough. he is nowhere near prolific enouGH YET to score lots of goals in this league. I too hope he does well and i am not putting him down i just think people will be  when he isnt as good as they think. I do have faith in clark to turn him into a decent player. He defo wont be on 12 goals by xmas and i think the others that were at the gateshead vs stalybridge match will agree with me |

I've been waiting weeks for someone to notice the KoL/Novak tie in ;D ;D Before KoL though I threw in an Eels song with a Novak tie in and had 'Novakaine for the soul'... I'm sure I'll change it again soon |

Wow didn't realise he missed was 10 games behind but still ended up as division top scorer..
He is obviously too good for that division so hopefully the jump isn't as big as it looks on paper. I don't think Novak will set League 1 alight next season or anything, but the thing with strikers is they either have it in front or goal or don't, and he looks to have it. Instincts don't change when jumping leagues and with a team of decent players around him there is no reason why he wouldn't be able to make the jump. Not saying he will be prolific, but he should be able to bag a few provided he has the required attributes that can (and will) be improved.
As long as we don't rely on him for goals and have some proven strikers to bag the goals we need.
There wont be any pressure from me though as I know he is potentially one for the future but I'm not writing next season off for him just because he's come from a lower league.

In which the sound is totally different to their new stuff, and in my opinion . . . Awesome.  |

But if hes not then i wont be complaining Craig Mackail-Smith, George Boyd and Aaron McLean all made a fairly quick step up, so let's not write off this young man so quickly. He's a good young player with huge potential, what's to say he won't be a success? We've let a few good un's up front slip by over the last few years and are due a change of fortune in that department. |

We've let a few good un's up front slip by over the last few years and are due a change of fortune in that department. I agree, it concerns me how much time people are prepared to give. He's 20 now, and let's be honest, we are a 3rd division club. If he's 'one for the future', by the time he cracks into the team we will be in the premier league according to our management team. If he can't hack it at our level now, he probably never will. I don't expect him to contribute 28 goals, but he should certainly be aiming to get well into double figures next season. |

If you'd been to see him regularly throughout the season then people might be more inclined to take your opinion seriously. |
