Good luck to the lad. Scoring 6 at any level is an achievement.
But, tbh, looking at players we used to have, who are now successful at a much lower level doesn't mean we should have held on to them.
Not that I'm suggesting anyone is...............
No, scoring a hatful in the Southern League does not mean you will be anywhere near League standard. In my opinion though, the club has failed consistently over the years (regardless of the manager) to give the kids a proper crack of the whip. David Stroud is the latest in a very long line of such players. He playes outstandingly well in one game and that's it. He is never seen again. It does not make sense, particularly at a club with such limited resources.
