I've had a bit of time to kill, so I thought I'd do this. Feel free to discuss, or offer your own verdicts on our signings this summer 
Ched Evans - Man City - £3m: Not match fit yet, but has made a solid start. I've got no doubt he'll be an excellent signing.
Lee Williamson - Watford - £600k: Very unfortunate to get a back injury, have to hold judgement until he's played for us.
Andy Taylor - Tranmere - £400k: Hasn't overly impressed me so far. Defensively, his positional play is quite poor. He's not really got much pace to recover from that and is a bit lightweight. I think he'll get better in time, though.
Keith Treacy - Blackburn - Loan: Looks a very good player, but struggling to keep fit. He's quick, and gets at the full back. Just what you need from a winger. If he can stay fit and get 90 minutes in then he'll do well.
Mark Bunn - Blackburn - Loan: Looks impressive. His only visible weakness is his tendency to punch. Not really had a chance with any of the goals conceded, so can't fault him other than that.
Kyle Walker - Tottenham - Loan: I was dissappointed when we sold him and loaned him straight back. This has nothing to do with his footballing ability, I would have just preferred us to move on if we're selling. He's brilliant going forward, but can be suspect positionally. Luckily, unlike Taylor, his pace gets him out of trouble. He'll improve massively with experience though.
James Harper - Reading - Free: This could be the signing we've been looking for since Michael Brown left. He's always impressed me, and put in some excellent performances against us. He went stale at Reading, so I think the move will do him good.
Jordan Stewart - Derby - Swap for Hendrie: Dissappointed with this one. One player I've never liked since his days at Leicester. Left sided, where we have 2 players in each position and couldn't even get in Derby's team. I'm baffled to be honest
Kyel Reid - West Ham - Free: Has looked dangerous when brought on and in the friendlies, especially running at defenders. His final ball seems to let him down, though. Decent signing.
Glen Little - Portsmouth - Free: Even if he doesn't play, I believe he'll have a positive effect on our team. He'll help Cotterill improve his game, and can be a calming influence at the later stage of the season if needed.
Ryan France - Hull - Free: Another one I was dissappointed when we signed, and he hasn't done anything to prove me wrong unfortunately. Don't think he's up to it. His main attribute is his versatility.
