Quality bit of PR for the superb reds,

apart from the fact they were interviewing watkins and had fitton's name on screen, minor point!

It was about the Samsung Win a Pro Contract Competition - little piece about Charlie's rise from Non-league, explanation by Watkins about what we're doing and why we're doing it, and then some journo making a tit out of himself in the trial. Charlie just ripped him.

It was about the search for a player thing,
Charlie Austin was on quite a bit, there was some mug from radio 1 or somewhere trying for a pro contract and was useless, charlie ripped the piss

Great bit of exposure for the town, must say the whole thing looked a professional outfit, was that wanborough they were training anyone know?


edit: yeah what cib said   :zipped: :Ride On Fatbury's Lovestick: :hmmm:

They do an online version, but I don't think it goes up until Tuesday. Probably something to do with copyright re: showing clips during the show.

They seem to put it on the website around 24 hrs or so after it is shown on TV. Just have to keep an eye out for it over the next few days.

When Nick Watkins speaks, the name caption underneath reads "Andrew Fitton, Chairman". Oh dear.

Once upon a time I would have really disliked the idea of such a competition like this.

However, the sheer amount of players that slip through the net is incredible so we may just find a Non-League gem.

Good work Fitton/Watkins and co.

Fully agree. At least with this competition it's not on TV like 'X Factor', where the public decide. It's fully decided by the coaches.

Yeah. I hated the idea when the 'Big Ron Manager' thing emerged and was relieved when we pulled out.

Iffy did make Big Ron look a right numpty in the programme, which they did do before pulling out.

Was that the "look this proves i'm not a racist" program that was supposed to rescue Ron's reputation even though everyone could see right through it?
