Chris Sutton looks set to have put the question of central midfield power to bed with the capture of Walsall midfielder Josh O’Keefe on a two year deal. This also looks to have quashed the rumoured deal for Alan Milne of Glasgow Rangers unless we can shift Shane Clarke, Fagan and LJL.

Josh a former Blackburn youth is set to sign a two year deal today although he will officially join the Imps when the window opens on July 1st. We are going to like this lad who will ensure 4-4-2 is very much back on the Bank menu in year 126. The Imps have also beaten off the challenge of a couple of other clubs for the services of a player who allegedly interested Blackpool and Derby.

Josh, son of keeper Vince, is a cross between Shane Clarke on the spoiler side and Michael O`Connor on the creative side. At 6 foot 3 and 13 stone the hard working tough tackling box-to-box midfielder has an aerial and physical presence, something the chessman is looking for after a season of ‘babes against men`

Josh is one of seven out-of-contract players released by Walsall last week and their loss is our gain. Perhaps he is the reason Scott Kerr got a one year deal instead of the two year we would have expected.
