Sounds good to me, but who do lose if we sign him.

[TheCultOfIanTunnacliffe]

Sounds like DJ Rafo could have some competition from this character:

He looks a right hard bastard  Could be what we need...and missed at Histon.

Gainsborough Trinity do have cash though...and cash often wins with footballers.

"Ive always liked Somner . He will give you 100% . He may get booked a few times , he never pulls out of a tackle .I would rather have him than Mills in our team. Should do a decent job for you."

"A very good battler, ideal for a scrap. I actually thought he was starting to progress a bit last season and could be starting for us this season, but unfortunately not"

"Good player, likes to get stuck in and gives 100% every game. Dissapointed to see him going because under DH it not be long and he will be gone for good."


All sounds really promising.

Somner gets stuck in and very good player at this level, even though we now have quality players in the centre mid he's a lot better than Mills.

If you do sign him he will serve you well no doubt.

Thanks for this, it's certainly good to hear.

I hope we do sign him and I hope this is the beginning of the long road to recovery for us!

Peter Doran version two

Sounds like a more skilful Robbie Lawton?

Fuertes where are those quotes from, Mansfield forum?

thefootballforum.net. Nonleague section.

Decent forum, fair bit of info flies around in there.

Says he can also play centre half so sounds like it could be a decent signing if it comes off.

Hi Guys,

Somner has not played this season for us, he is a tough tackling midfielder and will get booked but he will add steel to your midfield if you sign him on loan.

Will do well for you.

The responses are brilliant.

"I can't bring myself to raise a smile at this" 

[andrewflynn]

Those jokes are awful

[Ballers]

A lad from the Mansfield neck of the woods who can play midfield and centre half? Great, sounds like Danny Holmes!

[brian1925]

I've seen Somner play before and I can categorically say he is no Danny Holmes. Hope he plays in centre defence and we have a go for Doran, or Brownhill at right wing back - believe it or not, that would get us close to where we need to be.
