Club statement link looks like a good bit of business by Cal again

Think we’re taking a bit of a flyer on him - not really proven with goals at any level but hoping he makes a name here and provides a bit of depth.
Still on the fence about whether we’ve got the goals to replace Kurt but I’m thinking Caton is our 15 a year man.

I’m in the same ballpark about this lads signing low cost and time will tell if it pays off.

Tranmere fans I spoke to think there’s definitely potential and are surprised he’s dropped as low as National League North. They thought he’d be lower League 2 or national league level.

Exactly the sort of player we should be signing. Always worth a punt on a forward.

A Tranmere supporting friend of mine says the same re potential. Not quite EFL material but quite capable of doing a job for us two leagues below. Good luck to the lad!

Don't really care what he did for other teams as long as he puts in the work here!

Seems a very similar build to Goodson, both struggled in the Bolton game but think that was more an off-the-ball training game tbf, think they’d struggle together as a two but I’ll happily eat my words on that.
With Hall, Caton and Thomas too it’ll be interesting to see if Cal sticks with this 5-3-2 he’s been trying out or goes back to what we played most of last season with a narrow front three. Bring it on & in Cal we trust, if something’s missing then I’m sure he’ll know before any of us.

A Tranmere fan mate of mine said he was shite, and that he's a decent finisher and that's about it. Obviously I'll only judge him when I've seen him in a Chester shirt and hopefully dropping a couple of levels works out well for him. TBF, Willoughby didn't have an amazing all around game, he worked his nuts off and was a good finisher which was enough to get him over 20 goals at this level so it might be that Burton fits into our style of play in a similar way. As others above have said, I see Caton as the man to get a few goals this season and we just need others around him to chip in here and there.

If he does nothing but score 20 in a season, and he is being paid to score 20 in a season. Then as far as I'm concerned he has done his job.

Works both ways, good match experience for him and we can recall him if needed. If he has a good season there, we'll have first dibs on him next season too
