Hand on heart probably about 10th on my list when we got the news regarding JCH.
On the one hand you might say 10th...
On the other that's much higher than normal. I'm optimistic.

Wouldn't have even featured on my list tbh. Hugely underwhelmed but fingers crossed he turns out to be an inspired signing, ala JCH.

All we can do is give the lad a chance - thankfully not in person to start with as that may help him settle quickly

Would be OK as a second striker but not sure about up front as our No.9. Hope we didn't pay more than £75k compensation ....if Gills want more we should take chances at Tribunal. He does have pace which is a positive but would be surprised if he hits double figures in a season on goal tally but that's OK if part of a front 2 or 3.

Wiki says he averages about a goal every 5 games in his career. Maybe his prolific spell starts this season ? Good luck and welcome to the Gas.

I think there is definitely potential for this to be a good signing, whilst he's not been prolific so far in his career, he's shown at the ages of 21, 22 and 23 that he's got goals in him in league one and with a bit of coaching and belief in him, he could be the next on the long conveyor belt of strikers to make a name for himself at Rovers.
We gave JCH that opportunity to come in and become our leading number 9, could work again with Hanlan, we'll see.

I remember DC saying that it’s not about getting a striker who’s just had a great goal scoring season but getting the timing right and getting one who is just about to.

I mentioned on here a couple a couple of weeks ago that him and Humphrys would be a good couple of signing - see Hanlon as being given the vacant No 7 shirt - hopefully we can still get Humphrys to fill the No 9 shirt - but seems unlikely. Will be interesting to see what shirt he’s given.

"With Ben Garner’s coaching, the Gas believe he can add more consistency to his game in front of goal to match his physical and technical qualities."
Oh dear we're fecked!
