There will be worse free transfers, it is fair to say.
Bambo
And, I think that's the first one James Beet takes credit for.

Please could you give us a quick summary?
Couldn't go today and didn't get a programme but would be interested to hear about him.

His reaction at the end of the game was very touching. To go into the crowd and hug your family shows what it meant to him. To not play (and i also expect not to be paid) for 2 years and worry that your career may be over must have had a massive impact on his private life. He played well after a shaky start. In a squad of 25 he is definitely worth a place on todays showing. He has great pace which is an ideal asset for a centre half. I wish him all the best and hopefully he becomes a fan’s favourite with us
Yes a great return, but to see him climbing over the seats in the Invincibles after the final whistle to hug his family just sum's up this guy. Indeed a fans favourite in the making. Just a pity he never got a chance to really cross swords with Pearo today, think there would have only been one outcome!!
Have been waiting what feels like a long time for that tree to start bearing fruit. I hope Beet continues to be supported by the powers that be at PNE and any potential new owners.

Scared me to death a couple of times in the first 10/15 minutes but after that he was quality.
Couldnt believe how quick he was either.
It was a great debut.
Just saw his post match interview and have to say what a good lad he appears to be.
Looks like he loves playing for us as well.

First 15 or 20 minutes looked a bit shaky, but definitely grew into the game and was excellent especially in the second half

The kind of player I have missed gracing the pitch at Deepdale. Others may have said it already, this fella has the potential to become a fans favourite. The passion, desire and the sheer humbleness is there about the guy for us all to see.
He made a few errors today but he reminds me of Big Claude and I accept that we will have a few hairy moments with Bambo being in the team but you’ve just got to love his braveness to be on the ball.
He has to start if fully fit.

Get the contract extension out now before anyone else spots the talent. Strength, power, passion.
Normally we give our signings too long but I hope that we only gave him 6 months doesn't come back to bite us.
You would have thought him and VDB had been our defensive pairing all season, be interesting how he and the BFG can work together.
Sadly Cunninghams time may have come to pass.

Mental full debut. Fucking love him.
He is going to be a massive fan’s favourite because he is very very good, shows passion for what he does and looks just so happy to be out there. We have got just what we have needed for last two years, a solid dependable central defender, a pleasure to watch.
Really impressed with him. Nervy start but was quality, putting himself about and making a great impression. Top lad.

I don't think 'solid dependable' are the adjectives I'd have gone for.
OP
Absolutely. He's gonna be exciting to watch which is rare for a centre back. There are gonna be some horror show moments, it's inevitable but I have high hopes. Was far better than I expected him to be after so long out.
I thought that haha.
We have a solid, dependable one with Bauer when he's fit again, Lindsay also. We're going to lose Sepp sadly so I think Bambo is perfectly poised for that RCB role.
He showed today he is very good at bringing the ball out into space, he's made for that role and Hughes is great on the other side.
