We've just signed this 18 year old defender from Eastleigh... http://www.bournemouthecho.co.uk/sport/9897123.Football__Christchurch_star_Will_signs_for_Tigers/
For some reason I thought we'd already signed this guy a while ago. Might I have seen his name down for a friendly as a trialist or something?
he was announced as a signing some time ago. he also played for city reserves a couple of times last season and at the time i thought he looked like a school kid who was late for an exam. i don't understand this one, but o be fair, maybe we did not see the best of his talents? strikes me that this could be a former scout's pick, and a deal we are unable to get out of from the barmby regime. perhaps similar to the swiss/serb goalie situation, who to me looks like a clone of gulasci in his play!
It seems we did actually sign him in July, maybe it just took a couple of months for the news to travel to the south coast.
i may be wrong OLM but i think you were at at least one of the games in which he trialed. i wasnt particularly impressed when we had let the likes of the york lad, dean lisles (and others) move on after a similar trial
The name rings a bell, so you may well be right, though if I have seen him, I don't actually remember anything about him. Maybe he was on while I was in the long pie queue that had no pies at the end.
No, he has got a pic of him at North Ferriby at the front of the pie queue having secured the last pie!
If my memory serves me correctly he played right back for the Development Squad against Brigg Town a few weeks ago and had a bit of a torrid time!
He played against Hartlepool when he was on trial in March and he's played against Boston United since he signed, I suspect he's appeared in a fair few games now.
