To be fair most posters that had issues with @BP1960 was about a bit of repetitiveness in a few of his posts. Congratulations on your talents being recognised by the club and here's hoping you unearth a gem or two that will take us up this league and beyond! 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I obviously cannot give player names anymore due to confidentiality, but welcome any tips to follow up on players fans recommend like those above. Let's hope we can spot a gem or 2.

disjointed Posted November 17, 2022 Share Posted November 17, 2022 Fair play to you Alf, let's face it the recent years haven't unearthed many gems, the bar is low let's hope you raise it significantly. Although not every one will be a success, good luck and well done @adamoafc 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We never signed him as a long term thing. He was pants The thing is with young players I look for potential maturing 2 years on. I could see he'd grow stronger in time and with experience be a better player. We have seen many young loanees who haven't done well here, although you do get some who impress immediately. It can be a bit of a risk business with young players. I'm not perfect, I don't think anyone is with players from other academies. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had a bet on him to score the first goal in the match when we played away at Oxford Utd back in 2016… I have no idea why. He did the business at 60-1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll ask if he's been seen, if not I recommend he is asap. Although at a much lower level I'd expect his club would want a sizable fee with add ons, you won't get this lad for nothing.
