Anyone know what's happened to O'Brien Whitmarsh. He appears to have disappeared off the face of the earth. Although he is listed above.

We were told he was one to watch, disappeared off to Accrington never to be seen again.

Possibly injured? I was expecting him to go back out on loan as did well last season, but that hasn't happened.

Believe it’s only really theoretical at this point. 

[Tommy Mulgrew]

He looks about 8 years old but I see he is 16.  The latest in a long line of Saints attacking midgets.  Let’s hope he grows quickly from now on.

Yup, course it is, it's not worth anything as yet; didn't JJM agree a pro deal at that age, and still turned it down when he officially turned 17 and buggered off to Chelsea.

Anyone know who our no49 is? Warming up in front of the away end tonight.

Congrats to Cam Bragg. Now take your place in the team. Make that position yours to keep. And in doing so, stop someone who does not deserve to be in the matchday squad.

Brilliant news that Cam Bragg has signed a new contract - thoroughly deserved 😊

[SuperSAINT]

Alfie House’s interview with Spors mentioned Shea Charles has an option for a further year.

(Thank you, Jason Wilcox)

What I read, was not a new contract, but SFC had an extension clause for a year which they exercised. Really wish it was a new contract.

Why? Its suits both parties perfectly seeing as he is unlikely to play a huge amount this season but gets a bit more security. A loan to L1 in Jan would be great for him, as long as he plays regularly.

Truthfully based on what we saw in the Charlton game, and what Tonda said about him, I think he gets further game time for the first team this season and next. Which will make him a target for other teams at the end of that extension, a new contract would ensure a better value in that scenario.

Far too soon for that concern IMO. He said himself he couldn't really get a good loan move in the summer.

If he suddenly becomes a key player then we will have a good chance to extend it again but he isn't getting games ahead of Downes, Charles, Jander or Romeu this season in my opinion so would benefit far more from a January loan (assuming we have players fit by end of Jan) as he still hasnt played much senior football at all.

Well, I thought the contract itself defined number and duration of contract extensions. If you are correct then fine. But IMO he will be ahead of two out of the four on your list before the end of the season.

“If there is something I can do to extend it, I would definitely love to do it."

Sounds like we can get James Bree to extend. 10/12 points when he’s started this season and we’ve not lost a game. I think we should be extending. Should we go up, he can become back up. At this level he’s a starter for sure.

Absolute no-brainer. Never a star (well, aside from THAT goal), but never let us down. The only right back for a 442 (as opposed to wing backs who can’t defend) in the squad. As you say, starter every match currently and should we amazingly get promoted who would do a solid job as back-up.

Unfairly maligned due to his links with Jones, but I’ve never understood that. He’s always done a solid 6 or 7 out of 10.
