That`s a good signing, Simmo`s doing ok, along with the return to the club of Robinson, McCalmont and Barclay, he`s getting some quality players into the club.

Fantastic stuff, some real competition now across our central defenders.
Morecambe fans seem devastated which is a good sign.
Apparently he’s a huge threat from set pieces, should bag a few goals given how effective we are at them.
Very interesting to see where Simmo plays him, feels like he and Huntington will be completing for the central defender in the 3.
He also looks f*cking massive in that photo, must be at least 6’3/4’?

I like that he's apparently good in both boxes. That was something we were possibly going to miss with Feeny.
Seems to be a no-nonsense, give it all type, so I'm sure he'll be well liked here.

My mate who supports Morecambe says he’s fairly average speed and not the slowcoach Charlton fans make him out to be

Consensus amongst Charlton fans seems to be that he suffered due to the change of footballing style there. Common comments seems to be that he'd do well for a more direct team but struggle with playing it out from the back. They also suggest that he'd be solid as the central defender in a 3. As ragingblue suggests, it could be that he's competition for Hunts in the central role, with Barclay and Mellish likely to occupy the RCB and LCB roles respectively (assuming we're sticking to a 3). Ellis and Whelan can both cover CB, so that gives us 6 options at CB. Armer and Robinson should push each other at LWB. Kilsby may or may not feature at some point - had we not won the playoffs I'd imagine he'd have been in contention for sure but the step to league 1 may have come just a bit too early for him, so possibly another loan for him? Just need competition for Ellis at RWB (come on Fin, you know you want to be here), and the defence looks sorted to me.

Well he got an unexpected promotion at Morecambe after they'd been down the wrong end of the table for what seemed like year on year and he got a decent move to Charlton from it.
I can't comment on his abilities as I don't remember him much. I think he'll play RCB where Feeney played.
