Who is your marquee signing? 11:56 - Jun 28 with 4686 viewsSheffordBlue

Lots of talk about needing a marquee signing. Not needing a marquee signing. What on earth is a marquee signing.

Interested in who people think meets the following criteria:

1) Is a big enough name to warrant the term 'marquee'.
2) Would fit into our current set up?
3) Would want to join us?
4) Is feasible for us to sign based on wages/budget etc.

Personally not convinced there's a huge number that meet all of those criteria but interested to see who people do think fits the bill.

Matty Taylor from Oxford would be excellent though age could be against him, and they would understandably try and price us out of signing him.

Personally I think we're in more of a Gazebo Signing kind of place now. Can you do any puns based on that for me?

I think he'd be an awesome addition but is he enough of a household name to be considered a 'marquee'?

I agree he could be very good for us - would he meet the 'marquee' threshold for a lot of fans - not so sure.

Morgan Rogers.


Why is Morgan Rogers more marquee than Tyreece John-Jules?

John-Jules, 5 goals, 3 assists in 1173 minutes for Doncaster in 2020-21, followed by an indifferent Championship loan spell in 2021-22
Rogers, 6 goals, 2 assists in 2334 minutes for Lincoln in 2020-21, followed by an indifferent Championship loan spell in 2021-22.

TJJ even has England U21 caps, which Rogers doesn't.

I know Matty and I very much doubt he'd go to Ipswich unless it was silly money.

He hates us that much?

In all seriousness, Oxford wouldn’t make it easy to buy him anyway.

We're in League One, the notion of Marquee needs to be toned down somewhat given our level.

That's kind of my point - not sure there is such a thing in League One. Possibly getting an ageing out of contract Prem player to step down but that doesn't fit with the other criteria we need

He is probably one of the very few who would meet all the criteria I put up.
