I cannot think of a single reason why we have made this signing. It's the sort of signing that Widnes, Wakey, Dobbins, Bradford would make.

Lyon, Jennings, Bridge......nah..let's take a 33 year old never been who nobody else wants !

This is far worse than making no signing at all. My complete optimism was gradually disappearing each day but this is the final straw.

Forget your season pass AP ! I won't be shelling out £225 for one !!

Lyon , jennings and Bridge were only mentioned on here not by Mcrae or AP that's why you should take what's said on here with a pinch of salt they were never going to come

Anyone who thought we'd sign any of those three are living in cloud cuckoo land.

Wow.

It's one signing. On the face of it, a very poor one, admittedly, but it doesn't mean that AP isn't the right man to lead us to success, or that McRae won't make a good DOR. I'm distinctly underwhelmed by Martin's arrival, but I'm not sure such an emotional outburst is warranted just yet.

That'll be because no one is really in the know.

Before this morning, I was optimistic for the first time in years. I cannot believe that McCrae has done this. I would rather sign nobody.

Where is all this "intent" that we were promised in AP's inspirational rallying call? Who's the forward coming in next? Jason Netherton? Danny Ward? Cusack out of retirement?

I am thoroughly disgusted ! I didn't expect Lyon, Jennings etc... but this is a complete joke.

Atleast by signing Tony Martin it means you won't be getting a pass next year. Every cloud has a silver lining.
