Cedric Baseya

[Ferris]

French striker, signed on a one year deal...

[Ferris]

Has scored 0 goals in his professional career. Prolific.

[Pepe the Horseman]

He used to play for Southampton according to wiki. Is there a link to this?

From Jonny Fordham 'Royals sign 6ft 4ins striker Cedric Baseya on a free. McD: "He's good in the air, aggressive and young. I'm sure he will do really well."'

Sounds like the big striker we've always needed.

I just saw that. Exactly what we need

[riverroyal]

He made his Southampton debut as a last minute substitute against Ipswich Town on 1 March 2008 but didn't touch the ball in the short time he was on the pitch!!!

Plenty of experience then!

Where does this leave Manset and Williams in the pecking order?

[Royal Rother]

One assumes this is a less than elaborate hoax.

At a guess, it leave Baseya behind Manset and Williams at Rotherham.

The club trying to trick the fans?

As soon as he entered the pitch you could see the mammoth size of the big forward, and he set about muscling the Villemomble centre backs around. Then he went for his first header and got beat for the ball, now at 6 foot 4 and built like a tank, this shouldn’t happen. In 20 minutes I think he won one header. Movement was poor, I felt sorry for Negouai, moved out to the win to accommodate the big striker. With Baseya and Wade upfront there was never going to be a goal

[Pepe the Horseman]

Jonny Fordham seems to think he'll need to lose a bit of weight 'the signing of Baseya - needs trimming'

Got to be a wind up. Zero goals in professional career, complete waste of time as we are putting time and money into other young prospects who might come good.

Been tweeted by official RFC and a quote from McD.

They're taking this joke a bit far now http://www.readingfc.co.uk/page/NewsDetail/0,,10306~2456747,00.html

We are just upping our blacks to white ratio

[FiNeRaIn]

In 24 games he has never found the net. I assume what they really mean is we've signed a 6'4 centre back instead and have got the position wrong. I know the club wouldn't be this silly.

[LoyalRoyalFan]

Pointless signing.

[FiNeRaIn]

I can't get over this. Not a single goal in a 4 year professional career

He makes Bas savage look like inzaghi.
