Title: Adver News: Town hand trial to prolific non-league striker Post by: News Monkey on Tuesday, September 8, 2009, 11:00:24 Town hand trial to prolific non-league striker
TOWN are hoping to unearth a non-league gem after handing striker Charlie Austin a week-long trial at the County Ground, the Advertiser can exclusively reveal. http://www.thisisswindontownfc.co.uk/news/headlines/4585302.Town_hand_trial_to_prolific_non_league_striker/?ref=rss Title: Re: Adver News: Town hand trial to prolific non-league striker Post by: Batch on Tuesday, September 8, 2009, 12:21:07 Worth a punt. Surely one of them have to work out eventually.
Title: Re: Adver News: Town hand trial to prolific non-league striker Post by: DerbyRed on Tuesday, September 8, 2009, 12:22:50 Am I right in thinking that if we do decide to take a punt on him, we can sign him outside of the transfer window?
Title: Re: Adver News: Town hand trial to prolific non-league striker Post by: Batch on Tuesday, September 8, 2009, 12:27:10 No idea if he is still attached to Poole or not. We could get him on loan though.
I think there is a 90%+ chance he could be the next Charlie Griffin. But worth a look all the same.

I assume that means they can sign players, not sure about them selling players to league clubs though.

Title: Re: Adver News: Town hand trial to prolific non-league striker Post by: Arriba on Tuesday, September 8, 2009, 13:18:31 worth a look i suppose, but a bit too far down the football ladder to be good enough i suspect
Title: Re: Adver News: Town hand trial to prolific non-league striker Post by: dell boy on Tuesday, September 8, 2009, 13:23:43 worth a look i suppose, but a bit too far down the football ladder to be good enough i suspect I feel we should take more time looking at minor leagues, every league has at least one player who is worthy of a professional contract. Peter Osgood and Ian Wright were plucked from non-league footie, Wright from a lower level than Poole.

Title: Re: Adver News: Town hand trial to prolific non-league striker Post by: herthab on Tuesday, September 8, 2009, 13:35:57 It's a long shot, but what's a weeks trial cost us? There's a slight chance that this guy could be a useful addition to the squad. AND FREE!!!

Title: Re: Adver News: Town hand trial to prolific non-league striker Post by: Peter Venkman on Tuesday, September 8, 2009, 13:41:28 Bournemouth can't sign anyone yet Leefer as they are still under a transfer embargo even though hes been trainign with them for a whilee they cant offer him a full time contract.
