I'm a big fan of Baraclough but to suggest that the signing of Elding is part of some long term plan or being patient is absolute rubbish.
We were left with no other options. The reasons for this may be commendable but let's not kid ourselves.
Only Baraclough knows if the Elding signing is a gamble. I have a feeling he will destroy a lot of defences in this league but the amount of clubs he has gone through has got to be a worry.
