He'll waste another year by making about 10 first team appearances (8 off the bench and 2 starts in the cup if you were wondering).

 

Agree that he'll probably stay with us (due to our lack of depth in forward positions). Hopefully he has the talent to make an impact for us when he does get a chance- I've been very impressed with the little I've seen of him.

I can see the sense of a loan move but at the same time we don't have another striker quite like him. He looks a useful option to have around.

 

Aye but only if we're actually going to use him.

 

Being an unused sub is a canny thing for a few weeks, because it gets him settled into the matchday routine and used to doing away trips with the first team squad etc. After that though it's an absolute waste of time if we just put bloody Shola on anyway instead of him.

This frustrated me quite a bit last season actually. Games when we could have really used that pace in the dying moments of a game and he'd bring Shola on.

Shouldn't be required to stick around to be used here before he's ready, needs a loan for his own development. Hate that he may be used as an excuse not to strengthen up front, we're ridiculously thin up top.

I think what will happen is he'll spend the first half of the season here getting the odd sub appearance, if he makes a big enough impact his role will gradually increase and if not he'll get a League One/SPL loan in January.

Hope he doesn't have sex before marriage, because that would really jeopardise any potential dispute he has with the club in the future. Full Christian or fuck off for me.

On a "selfish" note I am fond of our players that are religious as they are more likely to live sensible lifestyles with little to no alcohol.

Agreed. Should help in the old humility stakes too As much of a decent pro I thought Simpson was - his off field antics lead me to believe he was distracted in some way. The shit app, the WAG girlfriend et al.,
