Joan Luque signs.

[Stamford Imp]

Just confirmed on the club's official twitter account.

 

[NottyImp]

Phew!

 

[Warrington Imp]

Nice one

I wonder how much Danny will tell us about the process. I'm really interested to know why we (or he) waited until this late to do this.

 

[Eweimps]

Yessss

 

[nlondonimp]

6 months. after the trial length, just shows how sure we are of him...

 

[HitherImp]

Thank goodness for that!!

Welcome officially to the Bank, Joan, although I suspect you know your way round quite well by now....

Got to be our bigger neighbours grimesby trying to butt in???????

 

[Croozey]

Thank goodness. Think he will add some flair to the team.

Taken their time - need a CB now quickly

 

[Impish]

I agree 6 months seems a strange timescale though in DC we trust, it gives Joan that time to try and cement a longer deal.

Commanding replacement for Waterfall now please.

Unless we're signing a free agent. In any event I can't see the new player starting on Saturday unless we're pushed for numbers.

Good to get him in and I assume a similar deal to that Eardley had at this time last year which didn't turn out too bad

Although if you have most of the cards and have an option it's perfect.

If the 6 months turns out nearly so well as the Eardley initial contract we will all be happy. Pity Battersby was never on rolling 6 month contracts.

 

[nlondonimp]

anyway, about time! sabrage that cava.

i hope he smashes it and we are renegotiating his contract before the end of august...

He is left footed isn't he? If so we could have the option of switching to 4-4-2 during games again with Anderson, Andrade and even Pett in the frame.

Edit - just saw that right footed free kick. Is he two footed then?

 

[nlondonimp]

he is right footed, but all the clips show him playing wide left.
unlike a lot of those types, he appears to have a decent left foot too.

 

[Impetus]

“He came here from Barcelona with two pairs of boots, a ruck sack, nowhere to live, no money, and a huge language barrier. I took a punt and offered him £35 a week, but promised to give him all I could in terms of coaching and support."

Great write-up on today's deal here:
