anyone know anything about him?

 

I asked him this question on Twitter yesterday as I wanted to find out more so I hope this helps a bit.
@tom_derry Is it correct you are a striker and if so what type of term would u use to describe yourself (Target man, poacher etc)?

This was his reply to that question.
@INFAMOUS_HOADIE Bit of everything mate! Not a typical number 9 or a typical number 10! 9.5?

Sounds interesting so hopefully he is good as it sounds like some fans rated him highly so he must be good and he may have been unlucky to not get a new contract, looks like we will have to wait and see what he is like.

 

I asked the question to the Charlton board on here...

Sounds good, not amazing but at this level he could develop into a good player, he is still young anyway, I see he is 18 anyway which answers the question that I hadn't asked.

 

His player profile for the Charlton Academy

Sounds good, pace and regular goal scorer, sounds like what we want.

 

I am not sure I approve of players announcing transfers on twitter before the club

 

Agreed BSG but I assume this means his Dad is a new member of the management team.

 

If his is Dad is Sean he could join the playing staff too!
