Saw this rumour pop up on Twitter earlier. I thought it was an old tweet about Slew who had just been with us, but it's a different player (Jordan instead of Jerome)...
National League side #ChesterFC have offered a deal to striker Jordan Slew after his short term deal at #Rochdale came to an end and was not renewed. Deal is til end of the season with option for another 12 months. #CFC #COYB #RAFC #TeamRochdale

It's his brother. Spares us the expense of printing a new shirt name and number, I suppose!

I don't like seeing a rumour a gospel but anyway if true.....
He's 6"3 so has height, he's 25 which is a good age. Plenty of experience at a higher level, 30 games for Plymouth in all comps 16-17 season. Can't be a bad player at this level to acquire. Only thing that's clear is he doesn't score many anywhere he's been, although at this level who knows?

We’ve got about 7 strikers and no wingers. Enough said.

Conspiracy theory: we originally were after Jordan but someone hired Jerome? 😂😂😂

Would be a terrific signing if true. I see that Jerome is now at Ferriby..

He sounds like he's quick and won't be late for training as he was (according to Wikipedia) charged after being 'caught' doing the fastest speed on a UK road for 3 years in his BMW M4 (156mph!!)
Seriously, if true he does sound a decent acquisition at this level after playing the majority of games last season for Plymouth, helping them finish in 2nd place in League 2. I believe we need a tall striker to hopefully provide chances for our small but mobile strikers and hold the ball up, so that we don't get pinned back for long periods in matches.

You believe we need a tall striker like Harry White and Jordan Archer?
