Tom Leach has since "confirmed" my thoughts. Who do you believe? Nothing has been reported by Saints, the rest is just tittle tattle, but all logic points to Tom Leach's version, no one is going to put a 19 year old CB with no league experience in the first team (straight away). Like I said. I'm sure he will become a good player, and maybe make an odd appearance for us this coming season - let's hope he grows a bit as well 🤣 No one said he was going to be put in the first team straight away. If he's part of the squad doesn't mean he'll be starter every week, much like WIll Smallbone and Nduluduldudludududududu are part of the first team squad but rarely play. My mates son is an 18 year old centre back at Bradford City, part of the first team squad there but only started one league game and a couple of papa johns matches.

davefizzy14 Posted 27 July, 2021 Share Posted 27 July, 2021 Welcome Dynel, sounds like a very promising signing.

eelpie Posted 29 July, 2021 Share Posted 29 July, 2021 I'm very pleased. We've now signed two decent defenders, each with potential, followsing Bertie's departure with Vesty lightly to leave.

Our scouts seem to have spent a fair bit of time looking at U23 possibilities an charming their agents. I think the club identified how utterly terrible the U23's were last season, that had a knock on to the u18's as we had to keep picking apart their squad with players that weren't ready. So I think there has been fair focus on that this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we didn’t then the cost to us in transfer fees in two years would have crippled us as we would need to buy a few. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
