CONFIRMED David Edgar

[Barney]

Well that's decisive action anyhow...as Tarquin says, was he a target before..?

Must have been one of them I reckon..can you sort all contract stuff out that quick..maybe?

I think he might have been a target but I also think the result on saturday gave NA the kick up the arse he needed to go out and get them over the line.

 

[Slim Man]

The last canadian we had was shorter than most of our current squad.

Yet I'd still fancy him to win a header against Collins and McEveley

 

[Come from away]

He is listed by Team Canada at 193 cm or 6'4".

Good old wikipedia gives 6'2 lets see what SUFC says.

 

[HeCanDoMagic]

Will he play centre back though?

Went to Huddersfield to play centre midfield. And wanted to play there for Birmingham too.

 

[Bladesince59]

I can see McEverly being moved to left back then.

At Barnsley ?

In his post match interview, Adkins says they had hoped to get a CB, but hadn't quite managed "to get it over the line" (bit like our strikers), so presumably this is him. If it isn't there'll be another one imminently, which we still need anyway.

We still need a keeper, centre half and Harris to get fit.

Edgar has been acknowledged for having good leadership skills; he has been described as a player who organizes the other members of his defensive line through his vocality. According to Wikipedia
.
This could be a great signing.

Damn. Shit. Gutted. Fancied my chances of getting in the squad with the CBs we had, that's my dream ruined.

Fuck ya all, I'm off to watch When Saturday Comes (again).

 

[pommpey]

Good. Seems a good player.

FFWD >> 1652: Saturday 15 Aug 15 Sheffield United 0 - 3 Chesterfield

He's almost certainly an awful leader who couldn't organise a piss up in a brewery, in that case

 

[Houso]

Awesome news.

One more please Nigel.

And his voice is so high only dogs can hear it.

 

[Slim Man]

And his voice is so high only dogs can hear it.

And he when in one v one situations his bollocks go back inside him

 

[William Henry Foulkes]

Good old wikipedia gives 6'2 lets see what SUFC says.

Fact fans: You're taller in the morning than you are in the evening.

Maybe he's 6'4 *and* 6'2 ;-)

 

[Shalalalafenoughty]

Useful skill if you're standing in a defensive wall.

You weren't the chap in the Fleur De Lis I was talking to about WSC on Saturday were you?

 

[William Henry Foulkes]

He will do for me if he can just head a fekin ball

Collins got in at least one bullet header on Satdi.

Not me. I was at home on Saturday I'm afraid (or maybe for the best?)

 

[Guesty]

Well the weather was nice but that's about all I can say!

There were definitely a few forum readers at the game because at the train station were three lads probably in their twenties and I heard one say to the other 'yeah, but are you a blade or a bladey blade?'.

 

[BouncinBlade]

Should give us a much needed lift at the back. I would say we need another cb and a keeper to provide competition for Howard.

Long is clearly not readynand Willis could do with a loan spell.

Don't think long will ever be ready to be honest.

Well he didn't say "eh!" once so that's a start

 

[SouthEssexBlade]

Well he didn't say "eh!" once so that's a start

No, but he did used the 'M' word.

 

[finlaytheblade]

There is no recall option

He is effectively a free transfer like sammon as both are free agents next year both will be trying to win contracts with us or other clubs a good position for us to be in

 

[cahill]

Height given as 6ft 4in on this message board whilst the Stir reports him at 6ft 2in. Kinell lost 2inch in 2 minutes, he'll be 2ft 6in by midnight.

Blades sign midget centre half

 

[bladeinspaceandtime]

No, but he did used the 'M' word.

Yes, I cringed when I heard that. Disappointing.
