Bolton Wanderers are a big, big club, says Joe Mason

New loan forward Joe Mason says securing his move to Wanderers before the loan deadline on Thursday was worth the wait.

The 22-year-old initially agreed a switch from Cardiff a fortnight earlier but was recalled by the Blueburds 24 hours later.

But he is now signed up until January 5 and ready to make a debut at Middlesbrough on Saturday.

And he is excited about playing for what he has labelled a ‘big,big club’.

Mason said: “It took a while coming, but sometimes you’ve got to wait for things like this. I am delighted to be here finally.

“I can’t wait to get started – the boys have been on a really good run of late as well so that always helps when you’re coming into a new group, and the lads have been really good to me as well so that’s always nice.

“The manager was trying to sign me for quite a while which is always nice to know and Bolton are a big, big club, especially in this division, so it was a really easy decision for me.

“I have got quite good experience of the Championship and I know a few things in terms of getting out of it too, so hopefully I can put that into my time here at Bolton.”

We are a big club for a town, loads of history and very proud people support us.

Through thick and thin, can you imagine how many fans UTD would lose if they'd get relegated?

Damn right we are a big big club, welcome aboard Joe.

I like him already

I think he'll be a big star.

I think he'll sit on the bench, get the odd 15 minute stint, then feck off back to Wales in January.

Dougie ain't going to change his one upfront tactics for anyone.

Sign him up permenantly Dougie
