Adriano Moke joins
Has signed for us today. Vastly experienced. Plenty of Spennymoor fans were disappointed he left them.
AA already describing this as building for next season.
Meanwhile Joe Wheatley has gone to Marske for the rest of the season.

Re: Adriano Moke
Great signing purely based on whenever I have seen him play in the past. Reckon it must mean at least one of existing 4 will be leaving. Moke, Hatfield, Rose would be fairly acceptable next year! Fingers crossed. Reckon Wheatley most likely to leave, but who knows.
Re: Adriano Moke
Wheatley just hasn't seemed himself this year.

He had a bereavement as well didn't he, so that may have hit him hard too.

Re: Adriano Moke joins
Back to Moke, over the years I've seen him play quite a lot. He is talented player, a good playmaker however sometimes he seems ineffective. But he's not a tough tackling/in yer face thug, so I guess that's why Bernard and Jono (or whatever they're called) moved him on.

Re: Adriano Moke joins
York fans were not happy when he put that out to some fans he was getting stick from.
Feedback from York when he was there, skillfull but ineffective a lot of the time, while a supposedly attacking midfielder he often ended up passing the ball backward. York and Spenny didn't want him and they are promotion candidates? so not sure he will be a one for next season, but AA must see an opportunity with his attacking style of play.

AA has quite literally said in his interview that Moke has been signed with next season in mind. It couldn’t have been more explicit.50 years wrote: York and Spenny didn't want him and they are promotion candidates? so not sure he will be a one for next season, but AA must see an opportunity with his attacking style of play.

Re: Adriano Moke joins
Armstrong does like his team to play good football when possible. Moke (I feel) could help in this department.

Re: Adriano Moke joins
No complaints from me about this signing providing it is only til the end of the season..
That gives AA more than enough time to assess him. Should he prove his worth then that will be the time to offer terms for next season.

Why? Because he made a mistake on social media four years ago? Stop being melodramatic.Makka Pakka wrote:I thought it was that guy.

Re: Adriano Moke joins
Well said gramps, wish we hadn't signed him after he bit at one of the many trolls on social media 4 years ago! WTFDarlogramps wrote: ↑Thu Mar 17, 2022 10:22 amWhy?

Re: Adriano Moke joins
Anyone remember the classic Mini Moke? I will be happy if Adriano is half as good.

Re: Adriano Moke joins
I remember Curtis Woodhouse turning up outside an internet troll's house after getting abuse. Footie players are only human and Moke was hammered for it at the time. How many times have we seen people being offered out on here? Presume he's learnt his lesson and hopefully he'll enjoy being part of a fan owned club and benefit from the experience.

I do Very "hip" in the late 60s/early 70s. I recall pop bands of that time driving around in them.

Re: Adriano Moke
Seems from AA interview Joe asked to leave which is fair enough . Also Adriano has "some issues to resolve" so might not play until Tuesdayeddie-rowles wrote: ↑Wed Mar 16, 2022 6:18 pmRecently started a full time job , struggled with fitting in training travelling etc might be that Marske schedule fits in better. If not hopefully he can get himself back fighting for a place.
