Ghost of Clough Posted August 28 Share Posted August 28 10 minutes ago, Big Trav said: Jake Young, not done but close A really odd one. On the fridges of L2 Bradford in 22/23. Then got a loan for the 2nd half of the season at Barrow (0 goals) The a good half season at Swindon (16 goals and 4 assists), before going back to Bradford and only getting 243 minutes. Now only 24 mins this season in the cup. He's obviously available to a willing buyer, but a risky one given he's done little outside of 5 months in Swindon in League 2. I'm surprised a L1 club hasn't taken a punt on him. He was also rumoured to be on the verge of a move to Fleetwood (also L2) just a couple of days ago.

Sean Posted August 28 Share Posted August 28 So many people on this forum have been crying out for us to take some low-cost risks on lower league players so I'd be happy with this transfer in that respect. Big step up for him and I doubt Warne would bring him in to be a starter (despite what he has been saying previously about squad players) but let's hope he can make the step up quicker than we'd expect if he comes in. r_wilcockson, Eoghan1884, KBB and 8 others 6 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kernow Posted August 28 Share Posted August 28 I'd honestly rather give Brown a go than sign Young. In League Two, his 16 goals came in 10 different games, and he didn't score in his other 19 games. He was then recalled by Bradford and spent the second half of the season making 4 appearances, playing the full 90 minutes zero times. The season before that, 0 goals in 17 League Two games. Before that, 3 in 22, before that 6 in 29. He's 23 and his entire career has been in League Two, where other than 10 games he's done nothing. It would come across as a pretty desperate move and I don't even think he's one who would be a useful player to have in League One next season if we went down.

eddielewis Posted August 28 Share Posted August 28 Was the last striker we signed for a fee from league 2 Liam Dickinson? Struggling to think any others that were more recent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eoghan1884 Posted August 28 Share Posted August 28 Jake Young is a player who could be a great championship striker just don’t know if this is the season for us to test that idea. He can score goals, get assists and is physically capable as he’s fast aswell as standing at 6 foot 2. He’s just 23 and the type of striker he is, his prime will probably will be 29/30. If it does happen hopefully it works out but it’s obviously a gamble. Will Hughes Hair and Derby4Me 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
taggy180 Posted August 28 Share Posted August 28 Seen a few you tube clips of young, drifts wide a lot. If this rumour is true would expect barkhuisen and Washington possibly off. Barkhuisen didn't do his chances much help last night even I know he weren't the only one Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
