“Cracking signing. A proven Championship goal scorer who bagged 20 last season in a struggling side - we would have been mad to turn down the opportunity to sign such a player.
Although we have 6 strikers on the books, Brooker is continually injured and Akinde is still very raw. Expecting Adebola to play 46 games is also a big ask, so to get in an experienced finisher such as John is an excellent addition.”
