Lloyd Kerry Joins Town

This morning town signed CM Lloyd Kerry... massive signing in my opinion!

Kerry was a free agent however had previously been at Tamworth of the conference but after they were relegated he left the club (I assume they had to reduce their wage budget) last season he was the fans player of the year and very much a fans favorite.

In his time at Tamworth he played 58 games and scored just 3 goals, so it is unlikely that he will be that supply line we have all be talking about (although you never know.)

I checked out there forum and there was some interesting comments:

I would only keep Duane Courtney and Lloyd Kerry if it is possible, might be doing others an injustice, but they are the only ones who have impressed me this season

That quote was taken the day they were relegated. For me that's interesting because at that time fans are normally extremely reactionary and they want rid of everyone and yet he was clearly still rated by the fans.


And a few more by their fans just wishing him to stay (there were loads so I selected just a few)

For me he seems to be the DM for a 4-3-3 formation and if so he appears to be a very good signing by Mr Weaver as he clearly played very well in the conference... although having said that so did Anton Brown and he ended up being very average for us. Never the less welcome to Town Lloyd!!

Very exciting signing. Some great comments from the Tamworth fans and hopefully become a fans favourite at the CNG too. Just need a RB, another CM and possibly CF and we are good to go.

Great work NZTownFan -those reviews say everything, sounds like just the sort of player we need in midfield.

He is number 7 for Hinkley (Red shirts) and sets up the first and scores an exquisite second.

Yes, looks like a good signing, we have 14 signed up now, so need at least 4 more, probably 5. A right back, 2 more midfielders, another winger/forward perhaps.

No doubt we shall see numerous trialists in the coming weeks (25 days to go!). Wonder if Michael Woods will come back and try and win a contract? Would people like to see him back? I think I would.
