Feel a bit sorry for Paul Osew! Got one match at left-back, looked good, then shuffled to right back again and now down the pecking order. Wonder if it'll be him who leaves rather than Guinness-Walker.

Oxford: the club website says he was released by Portsmouth?

Only looking to bring in one forward, then. Also implication is that the striker isn't an old hand.

Comments from other fans are VERY positive about LB. Sounds like another transfer committee success story :)

Welcome Lee Brown. Let's hope that's an incentive for people to snap up the remaining 269 tickets still on sale for tomorrow.

Lee Brown has already scored more goals from open play at Plough Lane than Mebude and Pressley.

Pompey article says Brown has joined us on a free transfer. Not mentioned by us!

That’s good news Hash regarding Rudoni. Hopefully we can get him to extend in the summer for another year or two. Great that Brown has finally signed too.

It is Lee Brown.

A full back that scores. Bit like Ashley Cole.

Bluewomble, Rudoni is signed until the end of next season apparently so we can probably hold out until the summer.

DH, LB, and Nathan Elder to mentor the forwards like Darius wasted wage

Lee Brown’s initials stand for Left Back. Woah.

Last season I bet on the opposition for all of our last 8 or so games, maybe I should start earlier?

KD - just seen that. I was just thinking what the reaction would be if the 'new signing' is a contract extension for NGW!

I would expect Guinness-Defending to be released in the summer.

Rudoni [Link]

Brown has always impressed me when I've seen him play and he would add some much needed experience (+ hopefully fix a problem position). But possibly surprising if we see him as a longish term option at left back given there's been talk of Jack Currie (another left back) being the next academy product to break into the 1st team? We've also got Osew and NGW so you'd guess that at least one of them will be surplus to requirements if Brown is on a 2.5 year deal. Another theory is that Robbo wants to switch to a back 3 in the longer term and sees Brown as a good left sided centre back option. Definitely a very good short term signing but will be interesting to see what's planned over the longer term.

Signing imminent....

Presumably Rudoni is contracted to 2023, or expected to extend? Can't have him leave for nowt this summer!

I beg to differ, unless we get an experienced forward (hopefully 2) we are in trouble. I guess we'll see where we are come April 30th. It doesnt matter now but for instance those strikers Pompey let go, Marquis and Harrison would have been perfect for us and improved us untold. Not relegation or promotion candidates but a nice comfortable 10th to 15th place finish.

Jack staying? [Link]
