It's fair to say that Matt Penney has been the signing so far that has generated the least excitement so far this summer. That is of course, not to say he can't go on and prove himself a shrewd signing, though from maybe being more of a squad player to begin with.
It's got me thinking though, which signings in ITFC history have gone on to have a much bigger impact than first thought when they joined. Tarrico is the one that springs most readily to mind.
Any others? |  |

Mark Venus.
Was very underwhelmed when he came as part of the Sedgeley deal. |  |

Tarrico, think he was only signed to help Paz settle in. |  |

I mentioned him in the OP but you may have missed it in amongst the rest of the text.
I just remember that debut of his v Bolton in the League Cup. Absolutely not a sign of things to come a year or so later. | |

Just goes to show!
Taricco’s debut was one of the worst performances I’d ever seen from a Town player. Whole side was abysmal but he was the worst. If I recall, 3-0 home defeat to a side a division below.
Then he became one of my favourite players of all time. What a player. |  | | |

Drinan. I thought he wouldn't be up to much, but he far exceeded that expectation!
Sorry, that's harsh. |  |

Steve Whitton.
Why waste money on dross like him thought I. Looks like he’s carrying a dozen bricks on a hod.
Proved to be a big part of the 1991/92 Div 2 Winning team. |  | | |

Wilnis was another, brought in to replace Treacle, didn’t think he’d be much of a replacement, but gave us 10 years very good service |  |
