If we sign Massanka even the clapping boys would have had enough.

Team him with Tollitt and Oswell in a front three. Sounds promising. Just got to sign the two first though

‘Raw’ can be a euphemism for ‘crap’ but it can also mean someone who is young, has potential, but has not yet shown it.

Massanka played in a very poor WREXHAM team and struggled to impose himself. However, those who write him off may be a bit premature, especially those clamouring for Fondop’s return from Maidenhead.

Massanka will probably not return to us but I would prefer him to Fondop. The lad has more potential and is willing to listen and learn. If given a chance maybe, just maybe, BH would be able to coach him into becoming a good striker.

Finally, I think the 3 giants you mention would be less condemning and more open to a prospect at his right level!

No those three giants would be ruthless and wouldn't waste their time trying to polish turds. He's 22 now so he isn't some youngster finding his feet.

I can't believe we're discussing this. I think we both agree we need far better than both Fondop and Massanka. I still think/hope Oswell will do well here. If he was playing with an injury then that explains a lot.

Does all this wish we signed this player and that serve any purpose. Not for me anyway. I know that the manager will not take a blind bit of notice of it so what is the point . Except for Matty Done of course.

I very much doubt anyone posts players they'd like us to sign with an expectation that BH will act on it.

Better fcking not be. If he does you might have to ban me, it would be for the best.
Him signing would be on par if not worse than Rutherford being retained.
