Yep, good video here on it: https://youtu.be/s0W3vRzxzL0

Farny says the only other "catastrophic" injury we've had in recent years was AJ, so that doesn't bode well. Two-year signing as well, so hopefully he can recover and we get 1.5 seasons out of him.

I wonder if this is why we actually paid some money and brought another striker as a replacement.

Would be nice if the music was quite a bit quieter, but still appreciate the increased amount of content as of late.

In SR’s video about signing Ayunga, he did mention that it was important to strengthen the forward positions because we have an injury that’s longer than previously expected. So that definitely seems to be the case! :cry:

Hopefully signing Jonah will turn out a fantastic deal!

Maybe they have removed the video to adjust the sound, there is just a Video Unavailable notice at the link below.

They’ve uploaded a new video with lower music sound! Cheers whoever’s changed that!

Shame about Obika as he looked quick and a handful, but hopefully we will see the best of him when he returns.

The Lad's frustrated, he's renting an house round here off my Mate, wanting to make a real go of things, on a 2yr contract.

Hopefully he isn’t A-Jay Leitch-Smith mark 2, Jon comes with previous injury history as well... :cry:
