Another Burton Reject

What a fantastic signing, didn't think this one would happen due to his status at Burton. Wow!!

[Stag95]

Free transfer? Wow that’s amazing business.

[Marky Mark]

Whose position will he be taking?

[lifestags]

Quality signing this, very versatile and is a proper powerhouse, delighted.

Long contract again so Clough is very confident about him, I do hope this doesn’t mean Hawkins is now a full time CB though.

[BH_Stag]

What a brilliant signing. That could be absolutely huge for us going in to the second half of this season because he offers cover in so many positions.

Striker
Right forward
Right of a diamond
Right wing back
Right back
Probably even left wing back.

A signing that gives us so many options - probably why he’s been described as the most versatile player in the EFL! Up the Stags!!!

Brilliant signing

Real statement signings so far in this transfer window. 2 and a half year deal as well. This could end up being one hell of a transfer window for us. Exciting times. COYS!!

I think we will get another CB on loan now that Shelvey and it looks like Forrester isn't going to come back due to injury, it would be ideal to release Hawkins from defence.

Oates, Akins, Hawkins, Johnson, Bowery. What a strike force though, Cloughie is getting us to outscore everyone

Think he will be for this season at least!

[STAGS FOR LIFE]

Fantastic news ,welcome to MTFC Lucas

[MTFCMusings]

Happy with this! Burton article confirms we tried to sign him a year ago too.

Only slight concern another 2.5 year deal for a 32 year old, but his fitness record seems pretty good over the years.

[robda1st]

That is awesome business to get him on a free

[cassellswasmagic]

Great signing.

Least we won’t be going on about how crap the transfer window has been

NC must have been reading the board thinking ‘you know what, these guys know what they’re talking about. I’d better try harder to sign players’

[Jimstag]

The question is where does he fit right now? Unless there’s injuries/covid I’d say the bench at the moment, try and keep an in form team together?

Really pleased with the signing, a true squad player but a strong standard for league two in all of them

we’ve had enough injuries for 2 seasons, don’t fancy anymore.

[stagsfan6493]

Why are people concerned where he fits in? He’ll be on the bench until he can replace someone out of form or if he impresses as coming on as a sub.

It’ll be nice to have some depth!
