Smells of bullshit. Alefe, or Al was a schoolboy at Stoke. Didn't join Bristol until he was 16. That's according to sky sports at least.
no chance. i seen him a lot and im still gobsmacked that derby, celtic and yourselves were even interested in him. he will need a lot of time and a lot of work, possibly the time/work that your coaching set up would have given him, and even then i have my doubts he would cut the grade. if derby will be looking to use him straight away, they will have a massive shock! im happy he has gone from us as i dont think he would cut it at our new level but im also happy for him that he has managed to get a good deal for himself. fair shout to him.
