I still find his emergence remarkable like. He wasn't even that young when he came here.

Aye. It was a lighthearted comment designed to draw attention to the fact that sometimes risk pays off and sometimes it doesn't. Martin O'Neil, if we do sign the lad, must have seen something in him that he believes is worth a punt. It might pay off, or it might not.

No shit Sherlock, I hear you cry
 
A young lad with potential, but not proven in this league.

Have we not learned from Wickham!!!

So never sign a young player again just in case they don't become a world beater in their first, injury hit 12 months?!

f***ing hell :roll:
 
Oh and on the subject of the player a promising youngster who looks very good raw as fuck hopefully we'll see him improve and become more consistent if we sign him.
 
I'm not bothered who we sign but i think the owner of the club want's to be very careful in his choice of words. If he thinks any of the players we are being linked with ie Fletcher, Phillips, Collins, Warnock etc are quality then he needs to study the game a bit more. They are journeymen and Fletcher aside (and only because we have no strikers worthy of the name) are bench warmers.

I hope all these rumours are bullshit because they are very uninspiring.

Phillips a journey man 1 club only 21 how does that work.
 
He was sent out on loan to Sheff Utd last season in League one.

No thanks

For 1 month- was on another level to that league scored 5 in 6. He then went back and was in the Blackpool team that got to the playoff final. Think he played the majority of their games too.

Who do you expect us to sign like?
 
Would be very happy with this - effective down both sides and knows where the goal is.

Exactly the sort of game-changing player our bench lacked last season (when Seb flagged). Before you all start, I suspect he'd initially start on our bench, but he'd be pushing both wingers hard for a place.

This is the problem, in reality we probably weren't interested in most of these players we are "linked with". A lot of it is bollocks written by the press etc.

Fletcher and Phillips would be 2 good signings
