[SIGNED FOR PNE] Stuart Beavon

[cakusmaxmius]

Rumoured to be interested in him according to Sky. Could be a good move. Scored 25 goals for a team that's been relegated. ALthough Charlton could scupper our chances.

Sky Sports understands Charlton, Sheffield United and Preston are chasing Wycombe striker Stuart Beavon.

Beavon has been Wycombe's shining light this season, scoring 25 goals for the Chairboys in League One.
Wycombe face a major fight to keep hold of their star forward now their relegation to League Two has been confirmed.
Championship-bound Charlton are thought to be admirers of Beavon as they look to bolster their squad, while Sheffield United are also in the market for striking reinforcements next season.
Preston boss Graham Westley is believed to be keen on winning the race to land Beavon as he looks to rebuild the squad at Deepdale after a disappointing campaign.

I hope so, a very good player in my opinion. Could easily play at championship level and considering Cheds predicament it wouldnt be a bad shout.

 

[gavtheblade]

if he gets a couple on saturday-i`ll buy him for us!

 

[stannyblade]

Could be a blade legend without even playing for us. Imagine signing him after he scored the goal that takes us up

 

[Kenilworth]

Or will he want to join the massive and put in a below par performance satdi cos he wants to play for them in the Champ?

 

[super_pig]

he doesn't take penalties either.. i did mention this last week.. ahem

 

[sothall blade]

if he gets a couple on saturday-i`ll buy him for us!

and i will go and fetch him

 

[EasyBlade]

He's off to Charlton.

 

[Kenilworth]

Not off to Charlton according to the oracle that is TalkSport

Seems like the Lions and SUFC are in the running - as well as Preston
Apparently we have money to spend?

 

[creswell blade]

Wouldnt mind signing him, he sounds a decent prospect. Mind you i thought Beattie would have done a job for us but i was wrong so what do i know

 

[Revolution]

When I've seen his name in the media this season I've been thinking "surely Stuart Beavon has retired by now? And isn't he a midfielder?"

It turns out this is Stuart Beavon jr and I was thinking of his Dad. Wow, I'm getting old.

 

[BerksBlade]

Maybe it's his dad we're after!

 

[Blade58]

I f'kin hope there's some mileage in this

[SotonBlade]

I'm not sure on this guy, don't really know much about him if i'm honest. All i know is his appearance to goals ratio isn't great

 

[creswell blade]

Someone on twitter as said that the deal for Stuart beavon will be signed and sealed by Thursday.

Lets hope so and lets hope his last seasons goal tally can be bettered

 

[creswell blade]

well he

Lets hope so and lets hope his last seasons goal tally can be bettered

Well he claims hes heard it from 7 differant sources so id say its looking good

The strange thing is ive heard Wycombe have lined up james beattie as his replacement if he does come to us

 

[DazBlade88]

I'm happy for us to be signing Beavon depending on the fee. 25 in 45 this season is great in a relegated side but I think we might be able to get him reasonably cheap.

I do hope we're bringing in a younger, pacey striker aswell, as we'll have strikers that are all nearer 30 than 20.

 

[mattbianco1]

I hear what people are saying regarding his goals to games ratio. But, he is now a proven scorer in the division we are in. Evans was shite until last season.

Ched Evans 1st season for us: 1 in 9 ratio
2nd season: 1 in 4
last season: 1 in 1.2

Stuart Beavon
1st season for Wycombe: 1 in 9.3
2nd season: 1 in 8.4
Last season 1 in 1.8

Overall: 1 in 3.5

No further questions your honour

 

[mattbianco1]

I wanted 2 signings. Stuart Beavon & Williams from Yeovil. Both will do great IMO

Thanks for the link, '58. I see our old friend Len is still bringing a ray of sunshine to proceedings!

Might be a half decent signing but hardly any need for the cartwheels.

Sounds like quite a sensible comment to me.

 

[BusheyBlade]

Mate who supports Wycombe reckons it is a done deal. Says he'll be top scorer next season if true...he's obviously not watched us much!

What's your mate basing his statement on Bushey? Any idea?

 

[Balham]

Pretty much any striker we bring in is going to be favourite for top scorer: Cresswell and Porter might get 15 between them.

 

[Kenilworth]

Beavon deal completed. Announced tomorrow.

[MidgetBlade]

Expected to be announced tomorrow.

 

[Kenilworth]

We will need some songs that can be altered to suit - replacing Heaven with Beavon
Anyone got any suggestions?

Neither "I'm in Beavon" or "Thank Beavon for Little Girls" seem appropriate, really

 

[SwissBlade]

Has anyone checked that he's not in court next April?

 

[SwissBlade]

His Wikipedia page obviously knows something....
