Really excellent news, just when some was needed. I've been watching his progress at Brackley and he seems to come off the bench in the 85th minute most games which seems such a waste.

Desperately needed, can't keep relying on Tom Lorraine for goals.

Now if we could just get Shawn Richards back as well that'd be lovely.

Don't remember if this has been mentioned before but Jack is the grandson of the Cobblers legend, Dave Bowen, who was manager of the Cobblers when they rose to the First Division in 1965-66. He also had an illustrious playing career and was captain of Wales in the 1958 World Cup Finals in Sweden, playing for Arsenal and also managed Wales for around 10 years. His son, Keith, Jack's father also had a good League career with the Cobblers, Brentford and Colchester so Jack certainly has the right pedigree. Let's hope we can keep him for longer than a month as I feel he may be key to us securing a playoff berth.

Claudio is part of a record-breaking Tooting & Mitcham side currently running away with the Ryman Div One South. Clearly he's moved quite a distance away from the area.

It would be nice to see a bit more snap and bite in our midfield, like the old days of Quiggs! Feel we've been lacking that type of player to drag us through a bad game

He's put up an old picture on instagram of him in a diamonds kit with two winky faces so I wouldn't be surprised to see a return! we can hope so anyway.
