18 eh! So we could see him in the 1st eleven when? 2029 ish. On the other hand, the way things are going he might lead the attack this coming season.

Let's hope that he's another Harvey Barnes! He is about that age isn't he?

When i saw the header i thought the rot's in the Palace had knocked another brat out.

If he's good enough he'll play, its as simple as that. Harvey Barnes is good enough. We don't have anyone who is consistently or ability wise as good as him. Too many also rans.

I like signings like this. It's no risk for us, we're not spending millions on a risky signing and I know there are some brilliant players in non league. And he'll get an opportunity and a platform now to show whether he's good enough.

It’s a mistake; the chinaman thought that he would get great status in China by signing the youngest of that Windsor family, you know that lot, the oldest claims to be a Vile fan, that tells you all you need to know........

Signed, and trying to tie down Louie Barry as well.
This is what we used to do best, discover uncut diamonds. We were probably the best in the country at it. All our best players cost nothing or next to it.
Bobby Hope, Asa Hartford, Tony Brown, Ally Rob, Martyn Bennett, Bryan Robson, Derek Statham, Graham Lovett, Cyrille Regis, Lee Hughes, Graham Williams, Johnny Nicholls, Ray Barlow, Ray Wilson, a certain Steve Bull the list is endless.
I am not confident that our scouting system is anywhere near what it was, but it's nice to see youth being given a go. I am sick of the big time charlies after one last pay day.
I am starting to get excited again, we have a new progressive manager and coaching staff who believe in attacking football. That is our DNA, always has been. If it takes a couple of years to build a good side so be it.
Let's be The Albion again, it's been a long time coming.
Genuinely getting the buzz.

I’d lay decent money this lad will never see first team action.


Sadly.

Bilic is a manager that believes in giving youth a go. The last managers we had Pulis was the prime example never played the kids even when we reached 40 points. he picked the same old faces who were then on the beach and we slipped from 8th to 10th in our last good season.
Darren Moore was the same, old pals or too nice a bloke to upset anyone. Players coming out and going through the motions. Getting daft red cards to scupper the remote chances of going up. Glad we didn't, Shan would have kept his job and been a Rabbit in the headlights.
Wolves would have murdered us, and so would everyone else.

I am not saying for one minute that Windsor will be put in the first team, Bilic and his staff have knowledge of the foreign markets and are fluent in many languages, so i don't think it will be all British players we sign.
But, if you are to believe the club, then Bilic has the say on who we sign.
I am genuinely feeling interested again, this time last year i was in despair. Darren nice but dim Moore.
We all knew where that was going.
