Hmmm! Could be an interesting signing. Never heard of York United fc then I realised they are Canadian.

"Petrasso's contributions to The Nine Stripes this season have been limited due to injury"
Not what you want to hear when signing a player, Ive also seen Barnet supporters mention that he has a history of injury problems.

Another winger? Welcome to the Stones. Who is not fulfilling their potential on the wings?

Barnet's supporters' Player of the Year 2020-21 - 10 goals in a truncated season (only 21 games played).
But Barnet ended up bottom of the table that season.
This season (the Canadian Premier season appears to run from April to October), he was out with injury until June and has only started once since.
None of which really tells us much!

It tells us we have taken a gamble on an injury prone player who doesn't score many goals. I guess the people who were glad we didnt resign Luque will be hating this signing. Or they will just blindly follow the club and claim to owners and manager can do no wrong

I'm guessing that George thinks the player has enough ability to make a positive impact upon the team between now and the remainder of the year.
Of course it is possible that the Grovegreenie knows better, but somehow I doubt it.

Still looks an intersesting signing to me.
Really stupid of anybody to write the player off before he kicks a ball.

Some of the junk that spews out of Grove Green is def not fit for human consumption.

Dont get me wrong, we desperstely need more players because it looks pretty clear that there are a handful that are not up to it, all in the attacking half of the field.
But signing players from the American League and Canadian League is surely not the way to go.
Loaning players from divisions above it a better bet. Look at the likes of Galvin, Sandford, Barden etc. All loaned from the football league, all quality that we need. Why can't we loan some league one/two strikers ?
