One year too late, but late is better than never. Take us back up, Jamie Really? Imagine he had signed last summer it would have been another name to add to the treatment room. The queue outside Phil Kite's room already equaled a distance equivalent of the Earth to the Moon. We would have probably had to pay a fee and higher wages too being in the League. IF his injuries are behind him then this is the perfect time to sign him in my opinion. Especially as he is already proven in this league. Don't know about that, he scored plenty at the end of the season when he came back from injury.

Does anybody know the length of contract? 2 years is my guess.

Even if he had missed a lot of games, I bet his extra 5 goals would have kept us in the league. He'd have nabbed the equaliser against Mansfield !

Haha I suppose, we would have probably loaned him out to Exeter in January though so it wouldn't have mattered anyway... Regardless, he's ours now so hopefully his goals this season will get us out of this league.

What can we expect from you? "Goals. Anything in the box and it will be in the back of the net"
Just what we've been missing.

Toteend has posted on another forum that he is on a 12 month deal with a view to increasing it if he does well for us at some point in the season.
At last a sensible deal

Seen a few clips of him on Youtube and he looks like exactly the type of striker we've been crying out for.
Bright, lively, always looking to get in behind, and a tidy finisher.
If we can keep him fit and give him the service, he'll score goals for us IMO.

His style of play reminds me a lot of Cureton in his younger years.

can we please stop talking about player signings....
it's having a detrimental effect on the serious posts in the gentleman's lounge....
that aside, this looks like a decent signing

White is reunited with Darrell Clarke3:59pm Friday 6th June 2014 in Sport By Joel Holt Salisbury Journal: White reunites with Darrell Clarke White reunites with Darrell Clarke HIGH scoring Jamie White has become the latest player to part company with Salisbury City after signing for league rivals Bristol Rovers. White’s future at Salisbury became uncertain following speculation he would be reunited with old boss Darrell Clarke at the Memorial Ground, as reported in the Journal last month. And, despite being one of two players signed on until 2015 at Old Sarum, the 24-year-old terminated his contract to join the Pirates. Clarke brought White to Salisbury from Winchester City in 2012 and was the joint top scorer in Conference South with 25 goals in their promotion winning season. But a much-need hernia operation during last summer, when Mikey Harris took over as manager from Clarke, proved a major setback for the striker, tilting to 11 goals in 29 appearances. “I have worked with Jamie before and he is a great signing for the club,” admitted Clarke. “I signed him when I was at Salisbury and he is a goalscorer who averages one goal every two games, and he has the potential to be a 20 goal a season man. “He is proven at this level and has the potential to further his career with us. I look forward to working with him.” The deal is subject to FA approval and the player completing his medical. Clarke is part of the best man team at Harris’ wedding tomorrow. www.salisburyjournal.co.uk/sport/11262623._/

Seem's like a good signing for this level. Hopefully he settles in well and can stay fit.

At last a striker with the nous to stick the ball in the net on a regular basis.Welcome on board Jamie,confident that if he can stay fit he will perform like a young Jamie Cureton.Might even bung a Pavarotti on him to be the leagues top scorer. I like to think myself pretty urbane and streetwise. I have no idea what a Pavarotti is. Pony, Monkey, Nelson etched etc. do tell old boy
