Connor Jones Lewis Ellington Luke Russe Lewis Leigh- Gilchrist and Sam Blake have been awarded their first pro contracts with the Rovers. Leigh-Gilchrist and Sam Blake have only been awarded short term contracts as they have missed periods through injury. I would like to congratulate those five and others that have made the step up to second year scholars. I hope that Leigh - Gilchrist and Sam Blake can go on to earn longer contracts and maintain full fitness. Look forward to seeing them in the first team squads in the future
Shame none of them will ever play they might make the bench though IMO DC prefers bring in his own players especially with Salisbury connections
Having watched the Central league matches Jones, Ellington And Russe have particularly impressed., managed to have the odd word after the games with Ellington and Russe and I have been particularly impressed with their work rate and energy for the team and even though they were losing 3-0 against Bournemouth Russe was still shouting for his team mates to keep on trying to get forward and reduce the deficit
