Pleased for Pierre to be here until the end of the season. A player reborn!

I saw someone on Twitter say he was brought in because we had so many injuries, Ollie Westbury rightly pointed out that wasn't the case, when he was signed the only defender who was injured was Morgan and that's why I was questioning why we signed him as we had plenty of cover With the injuries we've had it looks to have been a masterstroke by Taylor/Moore, it of course would sound very strange to say that they've been 'lucky' to have all those injuries (and I'm not suggesting they are) but if we hadn't then I suspect we would have seen little of Pierre, he'd be getting released and it would have looked a bizarre little episode. But strange how things work out. He must have forgotten about George Nurse, not sure Fleming wasn’t 🤕 and Thorpe , oh and feeney went off the week before and wasnt in the squad the week Pierre arrived ( Pierre was ) so more the case of Ollie Westbury incorrectly pointed out.....

He's done really well at CB, but I'm not sure Aaron Pierre was brought in to mauraude up and down the flanks and provide cover at LWB and RWB.

Think both player and club will be happy with that and if the latter were umming and ahing I think that performance at Wycombe would have made up their mind, he was everywhere. Corny I know but he's getting on a bit now, his options are no doubt limited, he knows the club and the fans and so with that said, I have no doubt he'll be looking to give it his all whenever asked to play. And if he can maintain performances like that at Wycombe then a good addition. Fingers crossed.

Happy to hold my hand up and say I was wrong. It is possible you know, to be wrong. It just takes humility to admit it! Same here, he had spells at Wimbledon and Sutton United last season and neither had worked out, I thought his best days were behind him but to be fair to him he has probably returned to being the defender we all knew and loved when he had first signed for us.

Any idea about his injury on Saturday? And how long is he likely to be out for?

Probably prefer Feeney on the Right and Dunkley back to Centre but I hope the Big Man is back again soon as well.

Good signing we need a decent striker 🙄 only a crazy manager would chuck Pierre up top late on ;-)

Pierre and Benning looked unispiring signings at the time but it now looks like the recruitment department knew what they were doing.

Hopefully those who were wanting Pierre to be dropped yesterday are enjoying a massive piece of humble pie after yesterday.
