The Shields Gazette report that Oxford have signed Jarrow Roofing's John Campbell, who has scored 24 goals already this season for the Northern League div 1 side: http://www.shieldsgazette.com/sport/loc ... -1-6964290

Roofing have a pretty decent YouTube channel, here is a video of what I think is Campbell's last game, he scores a brace against Penrith: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_I1Z0Va ... Th1b_SVILg

The Northern League is the ninth tier or five divisions below us. Mmm! But I'll give him a chance (if he does sign as there now seems to be some doubt).

This is clear that we have not signed him, but seems to imply we are still interested.

Was it also him that missed while one-on-one against possibly the worst 'keeper I've seen in years?

I was wondering that too!

Patrick Hoban signs, but is unavailable until January. With Hoban, Hylton, Hoskins, Roberts and possibly Campbell all being OUFC strikers surely Barnett's stay will not be extended?

Hoban's stats for the 2014 Irish League are simply stunning, and Dundalk are (according to Wikipedia) a professional team, so Hoban seems a very good singing. Again I think it's an odd position to strengthen in, If I had signed two OUFC players this week neither would have been a centre-back or centre-forward.

Nice send off piece for John Campbell on Jarrow site. There is also a mention of Peter Leven. Is that 'our' Peter Leven?
