DR FISHY has been down to the river bank with his fishing equipment, and has been casting his eye over potential Town signings. In the second of a new series, he has come up with a familiar face to Town fans.
Just for fun, try the link before you scroll down:
Player name: John Oster
Club: Sunderland
Position: Winger
Squad Status: Rarely makes the substitutes' bench.
Background: Does not need introducing to Grimsby fans ... started his career here at such pace that was rapidly touted as the next Ryan Giggs. Was sold to balance the books, but has achieved little since.
Oster was a Groves target last spring, before injury prematurely ended his season.
Ratings:
Ability: 9/10. Definitely good enough for Division One.
Affordability: 4/10 Sunderland paid in the region of a million for him, so would be well out of Town’s price range. Or so you would think... Do Sunderland really need him?
Viability
