Excellent. Time for some proper competition. It’s what proper clubs do. Pickford is our undisputed number one. It’s time somebody started to dispute that…as it benefits both players and the club. Travers isn’t good enough yet to dislodge him...

Seem to remember John Dodds' name coming up some time again, am I remembering correctly?

Duncan is still at Rotherham and training with their first team though he has missed their Algarve trip with a hamstring issue. Hard to see us signing three 16/17 year old CB in one go but we will see.

I missed that one but I'm pretty sure he'd be due a pro like Tamen rather than scholar if he is to join, May 08 birthday.

Is that the centre forward that has played for England at every age group and Bournemouth eventually sold for £60m after a 1 goal in every 2.5 games record?? Also, they sold him in 2019, 6 years ago

The Athletic now running Gokah and Dodds are joining our scholars. Credit where its due, Nixon and Orourke have proven broken clocks are in fact correct twice a day

I mean I thought he was a fine runner. It was the competency at defending I was worried about 😂

They also sold him for 20 million after 20 odd games. He even started a derby against us. I'm pretty sure he's confusing him with Brewster although he also doesn't fit

Do you mean Solanke? He played for Chelsea in the Champions League before moving to the RS for £3m

Robinson was very similar to Roman Dixon when he was with us. Rapid, quite powerful but awful positioning and not enough bite. I was glad when we sold him for £1M plus sell on. I was proven wrong but it was far from obvious that he would make it...

Thierry Small was also 14 at the time only 2 years away from making his professional debut

….not at all, just couldn’t equate Robinson to our Branthwaite discussion. Actually, looked back to my posts about him from 2017 onwards in the old youth team threads, I liked him lots. Funny enough, never noticed any from you when he moved on :lol:
