I suppose this deserves a thread of it's own, but was anyone else surprised to open the squad list page in Saturday's programme to see a new name on there? Apparently, ICT have signed Portugese winger/striker Andre Martins. I remember he was on trial a few months ago and I think I spotted him at an U20 game a few weeks back (see a post about a man with a funky hair do!). Was anyone else totally unaware that he had signed?

Previously he's been at Fulham, Club Bolivar in Bolivia, Caracas in Venezuela and Syrianska in Sweden, where going by my information has made a grand total of one appearance in that time. He was also on trial with Dundee United at one point but deemed not good enough. A few months ago Butcher said the signings were over for this year and the pot was empty, but we'd now signed two players since then (George Brislen-Hall as well who's never played and Roberts and Blackman on loan [these two though both cost nothing]). So here's my questions; What type of player is he? Do we need him? And most importantly, is he any good?

First mentioned on this site 6 weeks ago, but there's still been no official news on him ever signing.

I did some digging back then and in the last few years he has had trials at St Mirren, Partick and both Dundee clubs.

Got to admire his willingness to travel worldwide, no doubt encountering very different styles of football and culture.

His experience in Bolivia of playing at altitude could be useful next time we play at Broadwood.

I understand that he has beefed up since playing at Club Bovril, he is on the mend after going crackers and enjoyed being part of a Middle Eastern Ska band. He must be tough as he is referred to as "Doc" at training.

I think he toughened up playing for the Garth 11

It would appear that he hadn't signed......till now
