Pretty shambolic to have a signing video leaked before we’ve announced the signing.
I’d guess some folk’s heads will be getting banged together today.

Unless we’re not announcing him?
We’re just getting him to run out in the first XI at 14:55.

For those who didn't get chance to see the video before it was removed, the guy has A LOT of self belief.

Scored 9 career goals and has the 'self-belief' to say in his welcome interview that Jordan Rhodes could learn a few things of him. Hopefully this signing works out and he's not going to ruin the good dressing room we've clearly got.

It’s good that he has some confidence, he should be aiming to better the strikers that are already here; a striker needs a touch of arrogance. Think some of the comments above are harsh, he said he’s excited to learn and really liked the development plan that town have for him. Called us a massive club, a great dressing room and that he’s delighted to be here. Hardly a big time Charlie but no looks like a Couple of posters on here have already marked him, there’s even a link with Koroma again (yes let’s use it as another opportunity to randomly bash him for a supposed ‘ego’)

Good interview, refreshing change for someone within our club to have some confidence and self belief, hopefully rubs off on some others!

Fuck me. We’ve spent 5 years moaning that the club has no ambition or bollocks. Have just ‘stayed humble’ and banged on about where we’ve come from.
This lad swaggers in with a bit of self belief and everyone calls him a prick!
‘He should fit in with our apologetic, self-defeated, pathetic excuse of an outlook or fuck off. We can’t have his confidence upsetting the dressing room’.
You’re all a bunch of idiots.

Also the Karoma attitude thing is bollocks too. The lad who was named our community champion last year is apparently big time on here. Based on him not playing well? At least I hope that’s what it is based on!!!

Has hardly walked in the door and he’s being called a prick and told he can fuck off because he backs himself.

Has hardly walked in the door and he’s being called a prick and told he can fuck off because he backs himself. Has all the attributes to be a good striker, have to have confidence in your own abilities and strengths, have to want to score goals. He can sing his way through interviews or recite romantic poetry as long as he scores goals or is a huge pain in the arse to play against. Self confidence works both ways but strikers have to take the shot on, have to make the move in the box and have to challenge for stuff and chase stuff, on good and bad days for them or the team. Id rather have one that keeps believing rather than one who hides.

I didn’t get a chance to watch it before it was taken down. Can someone tell me when he first heard about our interest?

He comes over as very confident (perhaps a touch arrogant), keen, enthusiastic, wants to better himself - that's what seems to have pissed some people off already!! Bizzare.

About 6 months ago… huge club with great history…. he found a very difficult location for his interview (not that he said that but you could tell)… Bromby did an unbelievable power point presentation…. and is happy to get it over the line(not that it’s over the line).

I'd be more worried if he had said Rhodes is the complete striker and he can only dream about being as accomplished as him and will be happy to clean his boots.

It's comical that on here you're either an apologetic, shrinking violet or have bags of self belief and be arrogant about it. No reason why you can't have bags of self belief and remain humble about it. Simpson saying Rhodes can learn from him is unnecessary, particularly when combined with his reputation amongst the Ipswich fans.

He was asked if he’s looking forward to learning from experienced strikers like Rhodes and Ward, from memory he said something along the lines of ‘of course, but at the same time hopefully they can learn something from me too’

If I were picking the team I'd have a centre midfielder who's sole purpose was to create chances for Rhodes. He's an absolute deadly striker with both feet and headers and will score loads if they only find someone to feed him regular passes. You compare his coolness and composure in front of goal to (for instance) Koroma...and others , who seem to panic and just slash the ball in the general direction of the goals...

Nothing wrong with self belief. I saw the video before it’s removal and he didn’t seem overly arrogant at all, happy to be here and backed himself to improve.
Let’s put it this way; if he shows on he pitch what is needed to boost his ego, he will make us a bang tidy profit when he moves onwards.

Very happy we got this one over the line. Looks to have a lot of potential. Could imagine him wearing out the CBs in the first half and then bringing on a finisher for the 2nd when the game has opened up.

Or more likely knowing DS, start Ward and bring Simpson on with 11 minutes left when we’re 3-0 down 😉
