Does this mean we got him on a free transfer, if so and he does get a few goals for us it could be a good bit of business not having to dip into the 1.2 million we got for JCH .If he can get 10 plus goals and the other black striker we signed can get a few between them they may be able to match or exceed JCH total for last year, so could be a better signing than some might think. Couldn’t just say the other striker we signed rather than the other black striker??

If you are silly enough to read this forum, don’t worry. Most of us are level headed enough to wish you well and give you time. Put on that magic shirt with the famous quarters and play with passion and pride and you’ll be just fine. Become good friends with Ayunga and train hard. There is a place in our evolving team to become a striking legend. We are due one. Good luck.

Apparently Evans only found out an hour ago(in real time, an hour before announcement!)
Dear, oh dear. 🤭
If true, Brandon..... you're starting to become a Gas hero already!
Welcome and good luck..

So yeh it does need to be said.

Wouldn't have even featured on my list tbh. Hugely underwhelmed but fingers crossed he turns out to be an inspired signing, ala JCH. Normally you would say “better than nothing” But then you look at Bennett and think “actually, nothing is better”. Ah well, another striker with an underwhelming goals return but then in all honesty that was always what we were likely to get. I get the impression BG likes it that way too, I don’t think he wants the board to buy the best striker in the league for him, he wants to create a 30 goal a season striker himself. Good luck to the lad. I think we might all be needing a bit of luck this season.

Very quick and will really worry defenders, a guy that will run the channels he has not shown that he is a poacher, but Rovers fans should not underrate him. I would play both him And JA together, a combination of presence and athleticism, they need polishing but the two of them when both on the pitch will give opponents plenty to think about. I’d be surprised if we see a pair of central strikers in the same team for a while, seems to be out of fashion at all levels of the pro game. I think we’ll have a forward line of Hanlon central with Nicholson and JML either side.

Need Kilgour to regain his form and Ehmer to be the dominating better Craig-like defender. We have a decent keeper and good wing backs in Hare and Tutonda. Might take a bit of time to click but it should be an exciting ride none the less! Never a dull moment being a gashead!

Welcome to The Gas, Brandon.
Let's hope he's fit and raring to go for Saturday.

what has he said wrong? Don’t get it Over sensitive,enough crap going on without you making it a issue That I don’t see the point of why he had to mention the colour of his skin, he wouldn’t say the other white striker we signed. So yeh it does need to be said. I am sorry for any offence but i mentioned the players colour because i couldn't remember how to spell his name so by mentioning his colour it would more clearly identify who i meant .

Welcome to the gas Brandon. Personally I think this could turn out to be a great bit of business. ... the key is signing players just before they go on prolific form and whilst to date his goal return has been modest, he certainly has all the right attributes and potential to be a success...
I'd start with Ayunga as our lone forward Sat as he deserves it and will be high on confidence from Tuesday as well as Brandon not having had any real training time with the squad but I would like to see him get a decent amount of time coming on to make an impression

Seeings as we’ve only signed 1 other striker just saying the other striker probably would have done.
