Danny Ings (signing 1 year deal, John Percy.)

[SpacedX]

Danny Ings is renowned for his infectious positivity and motivation wherever he goes. If nothing else, he will bring leadership, vitality and actually, everything that you would expect from a senior pro in terms of professionalism. Something that we have been sorely lacking for years. 

[Nolucklcfc]

If he can stay fit, it’s decent. In league 1 with a much slower tempo, he should be ok. Think he played quite a lot last season. 

[AKCJ]

Ah shit, here we go again.

[Rubbersoul]

trying to be positive he might help our younger strikers and it’s only a 1 year deal.

 

And now if I’m realistic he’ll probably be a regular at the Seagrave medical centre 
 

 

[moore_94]

The club have obviously decided that because Vardy was still such a prolific striker after turning 30 that every future number 9 must now be 30+

[teblin]

On a 1 year deal, if he can stay fit (big if) this is a good signing for League one. 

[Finnegan]

Stop it

[filbertway]

 

[Jonezy]

We never learn do we. Never.

At least is a one season thing. Allegedly.

Just saw his record in the last few years. I take it back, that said this is league one might be ok. But fitness is the issue.

[Flannel_Fox]

One year deal I'm ok with. Potential upside is much bigger than the downside imo

[damolcfc]

Might as well keep ayew... international experience 🫣😝

Are u having a laugh.... we don't run.... we don't need to be fit to pass pass pass 🤣😝😝🤪🤪😉

[Stevosevic]

One year deal senior pro. Pearson did this all the time.

 

Will judge when I see what else is coming in.

At least Ings has had seasons where he has scored a decent amount of goals even if it was a long long time ago

[les-tah]

If we are going to look at starting the likes of Braybrooke page evans etc then we need this type of experience on the pitch, whether he is fit enough and the right player only time will tell i guess. He did play 20 times last season tbf

[brookfox]

Don’t hate it on a 1yr deal. Had a bit of a sense of inevitability about it. Feel like we needed at least one more experienced striker and if he can also help bring the likes of Evans and Hutchinson on then it’ll be worth it in the long term.

Thats a good point, in isolation i'd be worried.

Taking away our natural cynicism I can see why this is a good idea. Certainly seems the right type of character required and hopefully can contribute goals and know how

[Will1981]

Hopefully will have the same sort of effect as Kevin Phillips did.

[Swarles Barkley]

With a club with no strikers and no money this is what we should be expecting

[coolhandfox]

1 year contract is fine.

 

I think people need to recognise the market we are shopping in.

 

NP type of signing GTF, Hammond et al.

At least it’s only a one year deal, and we need a few experienced players to get our leadership group right.

 

Just depends if he can still chip in with a few goals at League 1 level, because he’s looked well and truly done at Championship level.

 

Also he better not be coming in as first choice.

Felt more reflective of where we are.
