The David Hunt thread

Has signed till the end of the Season

From Shrewsbury I think, midfielder.

Really ?

Good news, we need a bigger squad at the moment.
Sounds like his a bit of a hard man, a similer player to Marcus Bean.

Cover for centre midfield, can't be good news for Smith then.
 

The David Hunt thread

I seem to recall we were after him in the summer but nothing came of it.

Welcome aboard David, at least your at a club now that's getting out of this poxy league!!

Didn't he play in that 5 man midfield against us in that televised loss?

Bearing in mind our promotion rivals actually agreed to settle his contract to get rid of him, then it doestn excite me very much I'm afraid. :(

:yes:

As soon as I saw Shrewsbury paid him up I thought we might be in for him as I understand he wanted to get back to the South East. Good signing.

I wasn't jumpimg up and down the last time we went for him but bods at work said he was decent.

has to be a good signing, if Bean or O'Connor are out, who would fill the void, no one. Over 200 games experience, has to be good. Well done AS :sorted:

Well summed up :sorted:

Not sure about this signing but AS must know what he's doimg especially as he was interested before in the season. Welcome aboard Mr Hunt.
 

The David Hunt thread

scotty obviously knows what he's all about and he has til end of the season to assess if he's worthy of a longer deal.
 

The David Hunt thread

Let's give him a chance and see what he can do first of all - if nothing else, he'll presumably be very keen to put one over on Shrewsbury :sorted:

..................hop on up......................

I hope he's as good as the last midfielder we got from Shrewsbury.

Oh yes Evans - I was thinking of Bobby ROSS :D

Over 200 Games behind him, looks like he could be a useful addition to the squad IMO
 

The David Hunt thread

another experienced 'body' in the squad, good to have cover for Bean and KOC, Smith must be some way from fitness too, good signing IMO.

A mate of mine who supports the Cobblers said......

"I thought he was a pretty solid midfielder. He was a regular when we got promoted but was released after 1 year in league 1 without being offered a contract, which seemed harsh"

Seems to me he might do a job in league two, certainly provides back up should (when) we need it. If Smith is still out and with Pead now injured we definately needed some back up and sounds as if we would have got he on a reasonably low wage.

Good signing AS!:sorted:
 

The David Hunt thread

Had a lot of injury problems with us and his long throws were good but never got full advantage. Hope he dosn't come back to haunt us.

very injury prone. Has had one or two decent games fro us but thats about as far as it goes.

As for his long throw, well that goes even further. It rivals Delaps and Sterlings.

We scored off it once (incidently the first time he did it) then never again.

Good luck to him.

Shrews fans on him.
 

The David Hunt thread

I recall him being very good against us when Northampton put an end to our little recovery spell under Fitzgerald. Can't argue about signing a midfielder with over 200 appearances under his belt. Left footed I think so maybe he can provide cover elsewhere ..... :fishing:

For goodness sake give the bloke a chance.For your information, one of our employees who supports Northampton Town, told me he will be a good signing in this league as he is a no nonsense player and he was disappointed when he left them. Also give AS a bit of credit - he hasn't let us down this season, and I do wish some so called supporters would let a player actually play before condemming him.:sad:

Another experienced London lad with a previous link to AS at the mid way point of his career.
We seem to be building a tight bunch of players in similar situations (mid 20s, points to prove/"unfinished business") which i hope will lead to a really ambitious effort in the latter half of the season.
If the injuries do crop up again for Hunt we can walk away in May which is a far better situation then the ridiculous extremes of the Kuffour and Brooker contracts.
 

The David Hunt thread

According to that piece on the Shrew's OS, he came off on his debut with conclusion? :suspect: :D
 

The David Hunt thread

I am not going to reserve judgement I am afraid...

(1) His hairstyle is terrible,
(2) He is lactose intolerant
and (3) His surname leaves him open to abuse from opposition wags
