    He was one of the trialists playing the last couple of games for the u23s. He is 21 so may not be far off the first team as cover for Cirkin?

    No offence to him but with a first name of 'Ugonna' that surname is a waste/lucky escape!

    Think he played LB for Leatherhead and CB so far for us, would make sense given his height.

    Love it! A lad from the Isthmian League signing for Sunderland. There are some good players to be had from that league.

    Glad to hear it's been seen positively. Even if he never makes it to the first team, it'll help the younger teams be more competitive.

    No idea who the lad is, but the best of luck to him. It is a fantastic chance for him and he must be buzzing.

    Nowt wrong with looking down the leagues at all. Always said it, and it's a free hit for all involved.

    He's 6ft 2 with eyes of.... errr brown?
    We've had him on trial so must see something. I'm not getting carried away I assume initially for U23s then see how we go from there

    Cover for the fact we sold D Hume and Flanagan hastily?

    Be a hell of a step up for the lad. Isthmian Premier League? Step 7?

    Making less and less sense as the weeks go on. This **** about "allowing Flanagan to secure a deal elsewhere" is ****ing bollocks. Keep the lad to his contract and let him negotiate elsewhere in June. He's a solid L1 defender, he wouldn't be short of offers

    Nope. Isthmian Premier is Step 3.

    Not seen a lot of Leatherhead this season but I believe he's a strong player.

    CF of Kelly, or 'Kele' as I believe he said it should be spelled.
