Situations, confidence, luck all play a part in ones career, I don't think you can write anyone off in this world. CBRammette 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not writing anyone off? Where have I written him off? I've expressed my concerns regarding the current standard he is playing at and has played at for 4 seasons.

Jubbs Posted January 9 Author Share Posted January 9 The way this tweet has been worded and the follow up tweet, makes me think he's already signed for Portsmouth. This is their go-to journalist. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CBRammette Posted January 9 Share Posted January 9 Isnt this the sort of player our fans want us to sign - if we want him hopefully our Irish contingent will try and talk him into it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Happily proven wrong but I don't think he's League 1 promotion standard. A forgotten aspect with players around this age or just slightly younger is they had a lost season or so due to covid where youth/under 21/3 and the lower leagues were cancelled so it must have been an even harder journey for him to try make it as a professional footballer since he was released from Birmingham a year before covid. Some players need to take a step back to take two steps forward. Just take our own rejected academy products in Archie Brown, Timi Elsnik and Emil Riis as examples they've all moved to a 'lesser' league in other countries (latter two back home) and thrived and are now reaping the rewards in their careers. We'd have all of those back in a heartbeat. Might I add also it must be hard for any player to get scouted in the Irish leagues when the camera footage is shocking 😂 Edited January 9 by eddielewis angieram and Red Ram 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is their go-to journalist. He said this on Callum Lang and I can't work it out. Does it mean there's no incomings at present (either Lang or Hale)? Or just no Lang 'incoming'?

Wasn't that Saunders and Goddards nicknames? **One was full of ale(Saunders) and the other had no pace(Goddard). 😉 **Disclaimer: I made that bit up. Bloody loved those two and was gutted when we sold both. Unfortunately they were both before my time. Steve How Hard? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
