Alex Greive anyone? Would probably fit that high profile signing that everyone seems to be pining for.
Haven't seen his name bandied about, but things certainly add up.
• Auckland boy.
• Contract up in Scotland at seasons end, where he hasn't really gone above his role as a bench/impact player.
• 10 cap All White so will have that name recognition that the owners will be after, a name that resonates with the general football aficionado, even those that aren't immersed in football may loosely know/recognise the name.
• Close ties to his old club Birkenhead. Traditionally strong footballing base out those ways. Could be good use to get that lot on board - Forge those links!
If this mob are going to go big, then a signing like Greive will be the sort of move they'll have to be making from the get go. Imagine if they could get him and someone like Marco Rojas as well...
