5ft 10 🤔
Hopefully the other one is a proper big lad (if this does turn out to be true!).

If true it's more about his development than getting us a goal scorer in I would think....

He's got a 1 in 3 goal ratio.
Scored 4 goals in 21 games for Colchester in League One 4 years ago.
His latest spell was his most prolific, 6 goals in 8 games for Torquay in The Conference.

Will he play for free? If so he might just fit into our competitive budget.

From what little digging I’ve done, I’d be up for this loan. Seems rated by Cardiff.

If true sounds like another Telford situation. But then we most likely have no money to spend. I’d be happy with mid table finish now, hopefully Reilly comes good as I have little faith in Nichols to find the back of the net.

Only 5'9". I wouldn't say he's your typical No.9. He's certainly not going to be winning too many headers against 6'+ centre backs.
For someone who is 23 - 24 before Christmas - he hasn't played much. Very little experience when you compare him to others players his age.
74 Appearances in all competitons - including Cardiff youth - and 18 goals, so not quite 1 in 4. However, almost all his experience has been at a lower level. Good record in the Conference with Torquay but only average in L2 with Newport. It would be a gamble as he's relatively untried in L1.

Heard this too - was expecting it to be announced this afternoon. One we missed out on was Sam Surridge - he’s gone to Oldham to get more starts. We weren’t prepared to guarantee first team football. Shame as he’s nightly though if by Eddie Howe

I’ve got little faith in Nichols to even leave his hair alone long enough to even look like he wants to try and score. Got a good feeling about Reilly though he looks hungry and he’s got good movement.

I'll be totally honest, I've not seen a massive a mount if him in recent years, but I was hoping for a player with a bit more pedigree than this. A Cole or Toney type.
When I recommended him he was a good 17-year-old prospect for the future and one to go into our academy or reserves.
But whatever, if he signs I wish him well and hope he can do the business.
