Dont know too much except that his full name is actually Big Danny Meadowcroft.
Hopefully gets a run out tonight…
There’s a song brewing…
He’s big, he’s strong
He needs a better song

Good signing and will give us height in the team. Welcome Danny
UTA
A very good signing in my opinion.
Ex-Vics and has decent Blue Square North pedigree.
Jim Vince had him pegged as Pritch’s long-term replacement if we had ever actually gone up…
Saw him at the ground looks the part for sure, let’s hope he’s match fit as he seems to have missed a bit of football, perfect age for a centre back and I hope he is a big hit here, maybe one more player now to really cement the squad I would say a young hungry centre forward to challenge complement foster and tuck UTA
Good signing for you he is. Big tall centreback who played for vics in our BSN season. Was probably 3rd in the pecking order, but that was only really because the two ahead of him were our captain and another really strong CB (Matt Bailey). He never looked out of place when he played. Moved on from us not long after returning from a broken leg.
Should do well for you.
Sounds like he’ll really make a difference for us. As good as we are going forward, we are vulnerable at the back at times.
an excellent signing, should make a big difference to the back four. will also be good on set pieces. welcome to the club danny.
Young hungry centre forward…Titch!!!
Gone back to Colwyn Bay. Shame, seemed to have settled in and we’ve looked pretty solid recently. Felt we were really set for the run in, but now we’re short at centre half
Wasn’t totally convinced he was ok but so slow, good organiser, ok in air but we can do better happy with Ben and josh on current form while we look for replacement, dare I say it use the budget to get a striker !!! Only joking
CJ nono naughty
Came on as a 90th minute sub in Bay’s win at Harrogate last night.
International Clearance went through quickly then?
Good luck to the lad, but let’s be honest he was awful yes he was big and physical, but he had as much pace and mobility of Martin Ormesher’s nan, no great loss in my eyes Glover is better. We need a winger in my opinion.
Maybe we never saw the best from him if not fully match fit but a bit slow on the turn and was caught out badly against North Ferriby (I think) and against Hendesford. Josh Glover was excellent on Saturday in that position. (Our Michael Dawson). :clap SBL
Josh Glover is the ideal replacement in this position, we still have Josh Horne and Paul Alcock registered I think. Gards can fill in as can Powelly.
Whilst it is a shame the Danny has gone I don’t think the squad is much worse without him. It’ll give others the opportunities to shine now.
Danny settled our back 4 but for me never displayed the leadership that I was hoping he would. That’s no disrespect to him however we have a bit of depth in this position so I’m not too concerned by his departure.
“Sent to us from Wales,
Danny Meadowcroft you’re my world.”
:laugh:
Sad to see him go in all honesty, I think over the last few weeks we’ve looked a lot more solid defensively. Good luck to him anyway.
The positive way to look at his exit is that it gives an opportunity to Josh Glover. We’ve all seen his potential but he has a real chance to make the position his own in the coming weeks.
Surely Pritch will look to bring in another central defender anyway, unless he fancies dusting the boots off himself…
