RedAndWhite91 Posted 8 October, 2010 Share Posted 8 October, 2010 Can't say I've ever heard of him. But then again I'd never heard of Antonio and he did well with us. Good luck to him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nexstar Posted 8 October, 2010 Share Posted 8 October, 2010 Doesn't look to have had a big impact at his previous loan clubs, but maybe he just needs to find his feet. Pacey and strong is what we need as an attacking option Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jesus Reigned Posted 8 October, 2010 Share Posted 8 October, 2010 Straight up front with Lambert tommorow or start on the bench and come on? I'd go bench to start and bring him on if it's not happening; alas I can see that being the case as Tranmere will no doubt park the bus.....

Windmill Arm 2 Posted 8 October, 2010 Share Posted 8 October, 2010 I'm sure many will whinge that he isn't Antonio. Sounds promising, he plays for Reading who play at a higher level than us, so beggars can't be choosers. I hope he starts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

oxfordshire_saint Posted 8 October, 2010 Share Posted 8 October, 2010 Asked a Reading supporting mate of mine about him, said he's had limited involvement there but is a big lad and pacy to boot.

thesaint sfc Posted 8 October, 2010 Share Posted 8 October, 2010 His Wikipedia page doesn't suggest he's too outstanding - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nicholas_Bignall But I guess we'll have to wait and see! Good luck to the fellah. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ivan Katalinic's 'tache Posted 8 October, 2010 Share Posted 8 October, 2010 Hey, let's improve another player for Reading and then watch as they won't let us sign him permanently, if he does well! Seriously though, welcome Nicholas. Let's hope you're the pacey, strong striker we need. Does this mean Barney will be out for a bit with his hand injury?

Chez Posted 8 October, 2010 Share Posted 8 October, 2010 No better than Doble imo so what's the point we have our own youngsters who need game time ! is he not? Can you describe both players in some detail as many of us on here haven't seen either player at all. Whichis quicker, better int he air, better touch, movement, do they come short, run the channels, dribble, shoot from long range, good in the air, can they beat a man, sharp, work hard across the line, create or finish, goal hangers. I think you get the picture. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
S-Clarke Posted 8 October, 2010 Share Posted 8 October, 2010 No better than Doble imo so what's the point we have our own youngsters who need game time ! he's away....with wales. This is a good signing, along with Antonio and hal-robson kanu this is one of readings promising players. Very quick, strong and powerful. If you want a comparison he's kind of like a young Patrick Agymang - i've seen him play once or twice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

derry Posted 8 October, 2010 Share Posted 8 October, 2010 My son is a mate of a senior Reading first team player, I got him to ask about Bignall. 'He's good, really quick and strong, a bit raw at times, but has got a great strike on his left foot, can play wide, but is better up the middle'. He sounds like a good signing if only for the short term. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sounds promising, he plays for Reading who play at a higher level than us, so beggars can't be choosers. I hope he starts.Wouldn't get too worked up yet. This lad is a Reading reserve, not a first team player, which is why they are willing to send him out on loan. This is probably the best we can do, but its encouraging that they have brought somebody in, even if it is for a short period. There's no reason to think he will be anything special, but he is striker which suggests he may do better than one of our midfield players played out of position. He may well be behind Goble in the pecking order and how long he stays could depend on what happens to Barnard. If Barnard's future with the club depends on his assault case, a better long term option will be needed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saint Fan CaM Posted 18 October, 2010 Share Posted 18 October, 2010 http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/teams/r/reading/9102757.stm Mmm, if it wasn't for Lamberts head injury I would suspect that the above news would have seen the end of his loan with us. As it is, I can see an extension to Xmas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
