A returning import maybe? Would be happy with either Pither or Brown. Wouldnt be gutted if it was Gagnon. Other than that want a new face.

All times for the announcement vote are 8 so that could possibly be the number he’ll wear

It's 8pm tonight and a 'welcome home' so assuming that means a returning player.

Could it possibly be Matthew Myers? Realise that is high unlikely as Cardiff is his hometown club, but he hasn't re-signed for them as far as I know for 18/19.

Myers seems to fit the build up. I guess that would mean we're carrying a spare. Basically Clarkes replacement.

But Clarke’s replacement is Gospel who is not longer eligible as and under 23.... can’t see the point of carrying a spare Brit unless we intend to farm one out. Also Myers had made the decision to leave us a few seasons ago, because his family wanted to remain in Cardiff. Even before Cardiff signed him, so signing Myers doesn’t add up... Also I can’t see Cardiff letting him go... that would weaken them for sure,

#Welcomehome does imply a player who has played here before but not last season. All re signings have been #welcomeback I believe. I can only think of Myers (although having 1 too many over 23s doesn't fit). Or the only other I can think of is Lepine.

No.8 now with another clue on twitter saying "no place like home does seem to point to Myers" The only suggestions ive heard that make sense are: Myers - number 8 Brown - 8 + 8 = 16 Pither - 8 sort of like 81... ish Lepine - 28 again 8ish link. Obviously all would be returning players. Lepine would be interesting, left handed and would make our defence pretty big. Personally hoping for Pither, but if i was vetting would say Myers.

I've got a name that fits #welcomehome and wears an 8 within his numbers......

Pither or Myers.
Hope for Pither more than anyone though.
However, Myers was here for a long time, he's still classed as a free agent, would likely become captain, always worn 8.

Lepine played in Wichita last year. Which is in Kansas.

You’ve got to say, the way we announce signings now is the best it’s ever been.
