Hi all, life-long Latics fan, long time reader, only waited till now to register and post because I'm curious about something.
Right, I will get to the chase.
I play with a young footballer who's 17, a free-agent (think he has trial with a Championship club next month) and is far superior to any other 17 year old I've played with before. I play at a place called Rossett Sports centre every fortnight on a friday night at a very good level, one or two former pro's there on a half pitch where this young lad called plays, in midfield, only just started playing with us as he plays in his own age group the hour before.
I'm a lifelong Oldham fan and REALLY think we should look at him.
I've played over the years with a lot of young kids (17, 18) who've been on the books of club's at Leeds and I think he's the best yet. His passing and creativity is very, very high for his age. He's very, very quick, passing short and long is always spot on, strong, and a leader, despite us all being older than him. He's a central midfielder i think, spoke to him a few times and he doesn't have a club and just enjoys playing football.
I really think this kid could be the real deal and a hiden gem who could be massive for the club. how do i get in contact with the club to alert them to this young lad before someone else does elsewhere?
cheers
