I don't think I have been this optimistic about new signings since we managed to get Pittman and Fraser in from newly promoted Bournemouth , which I assumed (wrongly) would be players that would help us at least make the Playoffs again the next season but as we know Fraser got injured, Ainsley Niles wasn't that good and for some reason we released the likes of Ando to bring in non-players like Giles Coke.. anyway that's by the by, the point is Waghorn has given me some more optimism in what I thought would be a hard thought campaign trying to avoid the drop.
The logic behind the signing is flawless, he's someone with experience at this level that's already played alongside Garner. Neither have been prolific in the Championship, and neither were top scorers at the top level in Scotland either BUT Garner seems to have come here with a new pair of legs, easily our best player during the pre-season and scoring on Saturday so confidence will be running high with him and now Waghorn is being given another chance to perform at this level with Ipswich.
My only negative from Saturday aside from seeing Dozzell in what could potentially be a career ending injury was, just who are we going to partner Garner with? Sears for me has lost it, we needed someone else and Didz you are lucky to get a full season from. Waghorn hopefully is that solution.
Well done to the manager and the club for making this one happen. Hopefully we won't lose 3-1 to Luton and the negativity won't creep back in, but this is Evans era Ipswich after all, we should expect the worse! |  |

It does seem we finally have genuine competition for places throughout the squad, and not just a bunch of filler making up the numbers |  |

fingers crossed. He's not in Pitman's class but he's an entirely different type of player and more likely to defend as well which will be needed at times! |  | | |

We're still a bit thin in some areas though. We have a lot of Midfield options but in terms of solid CB's we have Webster who I am still not convinced by and Smith who was never the best and Chambers who's always prone to a gaffe or two. I would like us to sign a solid centre half now, someone natural to that position who's going to play 40 odd games uninjured ... maybe I am being picky? | |

A bit picky yes! Don't know of any championship defences that don't have a mistake in them | |

Is there a tune for Waghorn yet ?
If not then you've hit it there.
Wag-horny, horny, horny horny
Wag-horny, horny, horny horny
Or is it a bit too wordy ? |  | | |

They would have worked together extensively in training and will know each other's roles. That's what pros do. They're expecting to learn about and work alongside everyone they have to play with in a squad, even at a big club like Rangers where there's loads of options.
It's good that they have knowledge of each other already and I expect Mick will have asked Garner about how he works with him before he signed, if Garner had said they don't play well together or don't get on he'd never have been signed.
It's smart. | |

Martyn Waghorn 1million by The_Romford_Blue 7 Aug 2017 1:31Ohhh Martyn's Waghorns magic
He wears a magic hat
He used to play for Rangers, but he said no f*ck that
He followed Joey Garner, to wear the white and blue
And when we win the Chanpionship we'll sing this song for you
[grin]
