Will be interesting to see whether he goes straight into the first team squad at the weekend or whether he needs a few weeks to build up fitness and that.

Will be interesting to see if he gets near the first team squad full stop.

That should appease some of the people who are having an absolute Benny about Austin leaving.

Exactly. This competition was always about the sponsors samsung. If we get a decent player out of it it's a bonus. If the quality was so good then all 3 would be offered deals

isnt it funny how charlie was a builder at his dad firm and this kid is a plumber at his dads firm :S

He looks like a giant in the pic they have released of him and Wilson...but probably only 5'6" as DW is pretty dwarfesque!!

5'6" is quite tall actually :nod:

he played 3 games for Histon at the start of this season according to soccerbase

Not to me

I'm hoping he'll be as hungry as Charlie was 18 months ago. All hail the plumber !

What's the point ?  If he's any good he'll be gone in 18 months  ;)

I'm going to be so disappointed now if he doesn't look like this

He'll be paraded at half time of the Exeter match.

Anyone know who picks up his wage bill for the 12 months?  I'm assuming it's Samsung (as it's effectively their competition, but haven't seen anything about it.

It is Samsung, can't remember where I read it but it's definately them that pay his wages.

wages????? wages???

he gets fucking wages as well?????

We are giving him a chance to play football for a living and stop being a plumber, and he wants fucking paying for the privilege??

Mind you, if he watched the Yeovil game, he might have said "err, actually, Danny, I'd rather be fixing Mrs James's dodgy cistern next Saturday, I get double time and she's got a tremendous set of top bollocks, thanks all the same"

Shame that Chippenham lad didnt make it through - would have been nice for a local boy to win it.

What like the bull at Hereford, that would be cool!

Seriously though I like the bit about Danny Wilson Simon Cowell'ing him!

Has he put a transfer request in yet?

Yeah he's off to Brighton

I think Juddie said Samsung are paying for it.

Good luck to the guy. No pressurre...  ::)

I can't imagine he'll be anywhere near ready for the first team any time soon.
From a bit of googling I see he was at Ipswich as a schoolboy, did his 2 years youth with Colchester but didn't get offered pro terms last Summer.  In age this puts him a year younger than Billy Bodin I think so unlikely that DW will think he's ready for 1st team as BB hasn't had much of a shout.
Went to Chelmsford City on work experience at end of last season, played for Stevenage reserves (guess as a trial) and had 3 games for Histon last August.  Recently signed for Redbridge in Rymans 1st Div North.
Really hope he develops for the future but can't see this signing be relevant to our survival this season.

That's correct, and he'll be followed on a regular basis by FourFourTwo.

This is a list of what he 'wins' :

Finally, the Wiltshire Premier Shield will get the publicity it deserves :)

Hopefully they've checked the contract through slightly more thoroughly than that copy.

He'll be our second highest scorer  :nod:
