Looks like a good signing. Good winger and greater corner taker apparently. He was Reading Captain and fans reckon him as fit and industrious.

Was wanted by Forest apparently so must still have something in the tank. Presumably this means we forget about Baker and Henderson now ...?

Getting interesting. Relief to get these new guys in to hopefully dispel any hangover from last year.

Not bad signings so far I would still like to see some fearless youths brought in though

I've always really enjoyed seeing youngsters come into the side and progress but these days managers are understandably reluctant to take a chance on raw youth, at our level at least, there's so much riding on each result. For Moses to churn out all those games last year was amazing, but he was clearly ready for it. And it's not as if many of the youngsters we haven't retained have gone on to greater things.
The idea this year seems to be to have a first-team squad of about 20 with solid experience throughout and a couple of promising youngsters in the wings. Already, when you look at last season's side it looks pretty threadbare and you wonder how the hell they did so well. In retrospect the achievement looks even more impressive.

Last season was immense on so many levels I dearly hope our home form can improve though and we can put the Crawley not beating them yet scenario firmly to bed Shame we didn't make the last hurdle last season but I'm still mightily proud of my Leyton Orient COYOS

Still can't really believe we have him. Some Reading fans would have given him another contract / at the very least still expected him to sign for a championship club and be good for them.
Chuffed!

besides his obvious skills that video clip shows that even when off balance he is difficult to knock off the ball.
