Which of these do you reckon is our best summer signing so far?

Painter.
Good left backs are almost impossible to find.

Hard to say, both full backs are good.
Painter hasn't signed yet, I'm not sure but does a pre-contract agreement tie him to us? Or can another club approach him before his 'proper' contract is signed?
Poke? Reports are good, but Brez might not give us a chance to see him in action, which means we are doing well.

Painter is signed. You can't just pull out of a pre contract agreement and move elsewhere otherwise they would be pointless. If he did that the other club would have to agree a fee with us for the transfer as usual.
As for best signing so far, I would say Painter. I think he is more solid than Calderon, who is better going forward. Poke I haven't seen but sounds a good signing as well so encouraging so far. Will be interesting to see who comes in next. Nobody on here or anywhere I have seen said that Poke was signing so we may have a few surprises.
I couldn't choose - they were both essential signings if we are going to make a promotion push. Our defence is very settled now, and these two full backs are a massive part of that.
What we now need more than anything is a decent target man striker. Someone like Marlon Harewood will score bucketloads with the service provided by two pacey full backs.

Ironically if McNulty stays and has a good pre season, we may have two of the best in the league.
