Langstaff

Just knew we would be going for him, I got massive doubts though wether he can step up to this level, but Luke knows him so hopefully it pays off.
 
Don't know I feel about it if it happens.

27yr old who hasn't done it past league 2, would hope that the 7 figure isn't past 1M.
 
Just watched a video of his goals at Notts County.
We’ll need to start playing the ball forwards a lot more.
 
Notts co dropped quickly away from the play offs when Luke left, gotta think that Langstaff leaving was in the offing.
It's a big gamble, we are wary cos Yates has been shite. But anything would be an upgrade on him.
 
Fee seems a bit excessive for a player at the wrong end of his twenties and hasn't been tested at a decent level.

Would rather we spent the money unearthing another player like Ronald. I guess it's a transfer being pushed for by the manager.

Jury is out for me, on this one.
 
41 goals 6 assists in non league in 22/23 and 29 goals 4 assists in league two in 23/24.
Bulk of both of those seasons were under the guidance of Williams.
I could see why he would want to push for him as his new main man.
 
At least LW knows the player, the levels he has played and should be in a position to work out if he can cut it at our level.

That's true, at least this isn't a complete punt in to the unknown. The only stumbling block for me, is any potential fee.

Similar to Martin with Downes, O’Reilly, Ogbene and Key.
Fingers crossed LW has a few more ideas to go with Langstaff (who does look deadly).
 
Don't reckon it will be that much? surely not.

£1m or so plus add ons for a striker who has destroyed conference league and league two in the past two seasons wouldn't be terrible business. We sold Whittaker for £1m who had nowhere near the kind of numbers Langstaff has got, just like us I would suspect that Notts County would demand a tasty sell on fee in case he does make it big but £1m would in my opinion be a reasonable fee for a side who doesn't want to sell their star striker.

Still a big jump up, but yeah you can see why LW is interested.
