Saw him on loan at City & Royston years ago.
Terrific name.

Looks like a hedge against Smith leaving at any point either now, in Jan or at the end of the season to me.
Been out for a year so won't be expecting to play week in week out & may take a bit of time to get back into the groove of things. Allows us to integrate him, cover injuries, have a plan B or C, & then be ready to step up if we need him to if Smith does go. Also means we're in pole position to extend his contract should we wish to. Seems like a smart move in that sense.

Apart from his most recent injury savaged season, seems to have had a couple of decent years at league one level. Looks a like a good gamble on paper

Back up to Ironside so assume he's a number 9 type? 14 in 32 appearances for Donny with 12 of those appearances from the bench so looks a solid signing if we can get him fit again.

Definitely worth a punt on a 12-month contract.
Welcome to the finest club in East Anglia Fejiri

Where did this come from?! A player I rate, I've always thought of him as a pacey player rather than a classic centre forward but he's most definitely a striker. I would suspect that one of our attacking options is probably off in the near future but this signing is a happy surprise.

Very much doubt this is a signing to replace anybody leaving, that would seem a rediculous gamble. Does seem like a very shrewd gamble with the Jan window in mind. Plenty of time to assess him in case we get a big offer for Smithy from a desperate club. If he can get fully fit quickly he could be just the sort of player the squad needs. Look forward to seeing him in the glorious amber shirt. Welcome to East Anglia’s finest club.

Reading comments from Donny fans and Bonner saying he wouldn't be here if he hadn't got injured suggests it's a very shrewd gamble. Hopefully one that will be pay off similar to when we picked up Uche when he was scratching around for a club but clearly wasn't fit.
Strong, powerful, pacey and knows where the net is. Keep him fit and we have a top striker on our hands according to Donny fans.

Good mix of goals here - left foot, right foot, headers, long range blasters, 6 yard box poaches, penalties and direct free kick. Looks quite pacy too and also loves the ear cup / shush celebration - definite Smith replacement.

That’s Sam’s January replacement signed nice and early!
Lots of time to bed in and get some minutes before we really need him.
Great work!
