The Royals have signed 17 year old American midfielder Augustus McGiff.

McJiff.

Can’t you get anything right !!
It’s McGiff

[Fox Talbot]

Any news of BEN HOUSE?

I liked him. Unusually for our youth team he looked like a natural goal scorer. Went to Swindon last season, didn't score, fair enough, but haven't heard of him since.

Tom Holmes maybe back soon as it appears Roeselare may fold after being declared bankrupt today.

Should we be worried?

Don’t think there is any suggestion they are going to fold. It’s a pretty small debt that has been unpaid and seems like the bankruptcy is a technicality because the club wasn’t represented in court. Not the same as a club going into adm8nistration here.

Indeed. Seems all sorted and just a storm in a teacup

Few people complaining about McCleary starting but I’ve no problem with it - in the case that’s he needed in the first team, it’s good for him to have had some practice. Same with Gunter

When you consider we have multiple Academy graduates in the first team squad, he's basically just filling in for one of them. And lending his experience to those who need to be making the transition sooner rather than later.
