Finally we get one done, this might quieten the moaners for about half an hour.
Hopefully at least one more in the building today (fingers crossed).

A really good signing, just a shame we weren't signing players of this calibre after finishing 7th. Good business.

I'm assuming we do, both names. We would if he was German and I think it's the same in Dutch.

SSN had a little lesson on how Wout Weghorst's name is pronounced. Yes, sounds like "Vout Veghorst" with short vowels, rather than longer ones.
Welkom our new Number 9.

When I first wrote the article I headlined it with Wilkommen and then remembered that he wasn't German.

It's the Weg in his surname that I'm not sure of. I think will be as in Vayg rather than Veg.

And He also has two university degrees,

I've only just seen it, was too busy getting the article online. It certainly beats the Crouch robot.

A good start (can it be a start on the last day of the window?) but all that has done is replace Wood. We still desperately need some pace and physicality in midfield to try and keep hold of the ball and create something for the front 2. Lets hope this isnt the last of our dealings this window.

Should prove to be an excellent signing.
Welcome to BFC Wout, and good luck.
As for that link, has someone actually "composed" that cr@p ?

A definite upgrade on Wood that’s for sure.
Need a couple more in midfield to help out also.

Delighted to get this one done, he looks a more mobile version of Chris Wood, and his scoring stats are top drawer.
No dampner, but I would love to sign somebody to feed him in the next 12 hours.
Welcome Wout

The haters will be absolutely seething when Roberts is hurling 30 yards throw-ins into the mixer on to Wout's head.
