Jiri Skalak, 23yo Czech attacker, confirmed signing.

[Bladders]

Instead of a song, can we all just recite this:

You will therefore be taken to the Dune Sea and cast into the pit of Carkoon, the nesting place of the all-powerful Skalak.
In his belly, you will find a new definition of pain and suffering, as you are slowly digested over a thousand years.

 

[Guinness Boy]

Underwhelming ? He's a full international FFS........

Full internationals signed by Hughton so far before Skalak:

Kayal
Bong
Zamora
Maenpaa
Hemed

Three players who've made a huge contribution, one who's just a bench warmer (but an improvement on what we had) and one who started brilliantly and then went off the boil. It's not a bad strike rate is it?

 

[JC Footy Genius]

Transfer market site says current value £700k not sure how accurate they are but it's not exactly big money ... hopefully he's a better player than that!

Edit : Having looked at Dunk's valuation on the same site not very accurate is the answer.

Like has already been said gotta give the chap a chance though !!!

 

[BBassic]

I've a mad idea. No bear with me. Let's wait until the bloke has played a few games at least before slagging him off? There are some serious w@nkers on here there really are...

You should try checking out the #bhafc tag on Twatter. Incredible.

How many Conference sides have played in the Europa League?

 

[perseus]

Age is right. Position if he can play any of the forward positions is right as well.

Looks recognisable by his boat.

Will he come on from the bench ahead of Vydra for the Czech team?

 

[jamie the seagull]

Is there any mention of the fee?

"I am glad that we managed to Mlada Boleslav interesting negotiate a transfer sum, many such transfers from the Czech Republic is not done. I am also glad that Mr. Dufek kept his word and club Jirka transfer allowed, "said Skalákův agent Viktor Kolar of company Sport Invest International.
President said Mlada Boleslav football Josef Dufek and stressed that the transfer will also benefit economically Sparta Prague, from which Skalák transferred to Mlada Boleslav.

I think you'd get a bit of a shock if you think the Czech first division is like our Conference...

 

[atomised]

Or you could look on that as improving over time.

3 in 24 then 6 in 24 then 6 in 16

& at a cost considerably more money than what Burke had to spend.

Looks like a de-bearded Bruno.

 

[Zebedee]

A great signing by the club and well worth waiting for. Well done to all involved.

If this is you giving him a chance, I'd hate to see you writing him off.

To comment on the Czech top division, I assume you regularly watch that league. Why not give him a chance. We might have picked up a gem.

 

[1066familyman]

Right, in celebration of this singing I'm going to post two absolute classics. Ignore them if you like, but your life will be poorer for doing so.

 

[Soulman]

Anyone seen him play before? Any feedback on what his qualities are?

If he's a leftie then Dave In Prague might know.

How much was he ? I thought it was 'undisclosed'

ALL ABOARD with THE SKALAK
