Not sure if you have read this player's profile on twitter...https://twitter.com/tom_derry @tom_derry Footballer at Charlton Athletic, joining Gillingham FC at the end of the season. 'I will die before I lose, because I was born to win.' London Any info on him? thanks
He is a decent player,good in the air but is not good enough for us.No disrespect to the Gills and congratulations on winning the Championship.
He's been playing like an old-fashioned centre-forward for our under-18's. Good in the air, and could be a handful when he fills out a bit, he's at that age.
To be fair, we have two outstanding u19 strikers in Azeez and Pigott, an outstanding u18 in Sho-Silva who will move up next season, and Michael Smith who is an u21 currently on loan at Colchester. We cannot give them all games. Otherwise we might have given Derry another year because he has done nothing wrong. Good luck to him at Gillingham.
