Reading their forum there will be no return to sender, they are glad he has gone.
Hopefully he proves them wrong with the comments he could not hit a barn door and he does alot of running around but that's it

2 goals in 25 games must be a misprint.
To me and I hope I am wrong and people can slag me off it's the last throw of a man on death row.

We have to be realistic this signing is at the level we are at when sighing strikers. We haven’t got the money to splash the cash like Wrexham did when signing a proven striker like Paul Mullin. (Allegedly on £4.5k a week in national league )We have to make do with those that have showed promise in the past had a career stall and looking to get back on track. That’s what Presley is imo. Support him he could be another quigley who joined us with a not to dissimilar record

Quigley had scored 2 in 26 (based off his loans to Port Vale and Halifax), so here’s hoping Pressley can rediscover his goalscoring threat like Quigley did.

All these signings will have to balanced by out goings. One gone but there must be more to follow.

Can we stop the Elvis impersonations? It's Pressley not Presley. One is 'the king', the other sang songs. Love, Mister Pleassant. :lol:

Quigley played 143 games till he came to Barrow and scored 1 goal every 4 th game so had a far better record, this lads record 1 in 12 .
Also I think Evatt motivated him and Rooney.
Quigley scored 35 in 70 games or in every second game.

Evatt improved him and others .
I hope I am wrong but Clemence is looking more and more like a rabbit in the headlights.
Let's hope I am wrong.

Before he came to us Quigley had only scored goals at a non league level and the majority in a poor welsh league. His record at league level was 9 games for Blackpool and 11 at Port vale with no goals scored. Pressley comes to us after having actually played and scored in the football league at league one level a level up from where we are now.He is young and hungry and on paper looks a good fit for us. With some help and support from everyone around him including the supporters he might just be what we need.

Decent Interview up to saying we have good strikers already at the Club, shows players don't do research on the players at new Clubs he actually said it twice, just hope we can get out of our poor run of late.

On paper we have good strikers.
Problem is, we play on grass.
