At last we have an out and out winger. Good luck Dave, welcome to The Gas. p.s. Smile. It's not that bad here! Well said. Welcome to the Gas. You have our support; respect the shirt; and please give it your very best. We are willing you to succeed.

I hear Di Maria is looking for a move... Perhaps he will match some people's expectations. No, someone like Jolley would have been a realistic good signing for this level. "Realistic". He played 50 games for Newport last season and looks to feature this season too. I don't get why people think he's being shipped out on a whim?

D.C Says he's a quick player with a good delivery which is all well and good we have needed a winger for years with this ability. But I had to comment when D.C first put...."HE CHIPS IN WITH A FEW GOALS" That's what got me to be a bit cautious. 205 games 17 goals. Don't get me wrong I'm all for giving him every chance in the world. If he can run..send in a good pass a few good assists and scores 1 or 2 goals and shows he is interested in the game he plays then I would be more than happy....unlike the long haired freak.....limited passes....0 assists ok scored 15 goals before he couldn't give a toss. Anyone who knows me I will back any player who pulls on the blue and white quarters and puts in 100%.

It's what Martin does now in a Rovers shirt which is important, given he played Conference football last season at least he knows what's required at this level.
When did we last convince an experienced left winger to sign for us? Even Carayol was a relative youngster? Jeff Hughes more left midfielder than winger, Lewis Haldane wasn't a winger.

Did he not get the memo about facial hair expectation amongst our fans? Welcome to the Gas Dave - hope it's a good move for all parties.

To be fair to the lad, I think he was brought in to create goals rather than score goals and hopefully he can provide the service that the strikers have been waiting for. Good luck to the lad.

My mate, a regular at milwall said "dartford Dave" is a very good player and should do well at this level. My problem is is that it's a long time since he played at the den so it would be a bit like one of us saying that Nathan Ellington is a very good player!

One thing I have learnt over the years is that each set of supporters tend to have differing opinions of players. Stockport fans had lots of positive things to say about Dominic Blizzard when we signed him but you would be hard pushed to find a Gashead with something positive to say about him. There are many more examples of players who we rate and other club's supporters don't and vice versa. I will judge him when I see him.

The sooner some on here realise we are a NON LEAGUE TEAM the better. Good luck to the lad I say, never seen him play myself so I for one will not pre judge him. Luton were a non league team last season and he couldn't get into their team. You could say the same for Matty Taylor,couldn't get in FGR's team and they were not as good as Luton,sent on loan to chester where he scored 6. So you never know the lad may be just what we need. Welcome to the Gas Dave and good luck

Welcome to the Gas Dave and good luck Matty Taylor's stats are hideous. On paper he looked a sh*te signing. Thankfully things are not decided on paper and I can see with my own eyes that he is going to turn out to be a good signing. Can't wait for him to notch his first goal and then I'm sure he's going to get going.

These guys could all turn out to be good signings, but patience is a virtue, yes it was not good Tuesday first half especially, I honestly think it will take 15-20 games for this team to settle in, thats a long time, then again I dont expect promtion this year!

Not fair to compare to Matty Taylor as he was played out of position out om the wing and my friend who is a FGR fan said a lot of their fans rate him and acknowledge he was played out of position whilst there. Also he proved how good he was with Chester so as I said an awful comparison to make.

On a different note did we not sign Monkhouse as a winger ? i thought him and Gosling were are main wingers for the season.
