Nolan

Nolan is looking like a great signing.

Does the simple things well, a real good creative passing player that takes the opportunity to exploit the space. Has a great shot too. Being in there with an experienced Disley is also benefitting him and he seems to be getting stuck in to do the central ball winning now.

Wrexham and Lincoln's loss I would say.

His signing upset the whingers,
They thought he was a minger;
But to those who waved a finger,
Jon is now the Ginger Ninja.  

And long may he continue.

I've saw him on 3 occasions against us, seemed poor all the time. I was pessimistic when his name was announced but he seems to be scoring the goals from midfield currently. Let's keep this roll going and see how much pressure we can apply.

I've not seen him play yet but he's rubbish. I will spend 90 minutes on Saturday screaming for Clay to be brought on. I've not even credited him with that goal last night. In my mind it was a clearance that he sliced. How dare he sign for us and then expect to play. And he can stop that box to box nonsense too. Idiotic signing. In fact I've just remembered that I can't watch him on Saturday, because on reading that he'd signed for us, I put my foot through my season ticket and sent John Fenty the bill.

Interesting discussion on him over at Gimpville. Including the usual clueless misunderstanding shock revelation that Nolan is STILL AN IMP !! *

And he's a ging..er !

Pleased that he's made a good start but gotta feel a tad sorry for Clay. Still Nolan has come in and scored 2 goals already, something which Clay lacks in his game. Maybe this will really spur him on a bit.

This sums up the fishy IMO.

Hurst got shot down straight away for signing him, he is slowly firming his place in the starting 11, nearly scored against Gateshead and did score last night.

Ill admit i was slightly disappointed when we signed him, but how often have we shot Hurst down and been wrong !

Clay for example
Arnold got stick when he first signed

Really liked the look of him last night. Composed on the ball, can pass well with both feet, creative and seems to read the game well. great finish, too. He had a half chance before that, too if i recall, when he ran into the box and had a few changes to shoot but opted to pass in the end.

3 games, 2 goals and an assist(?). great start, keep it up Jon!

Not by everyone. I've never understood why Clay gets so much praise because he is average. Not a bad player but not creative enough for the heart of the team. I've only seen Nolan once and that was against poor opposition but he is quick thinking and makes things happen. Clay is going to have a hard time getting back in the team. Some say they feel sorry for Clay but if you don't better your players as you go along, you stand still.
