Hob Nob Anyone?

21. YO CM from Brighton. Spent last season on loan at Morecambe. 10 goals in 44 apps.

Likely bollocks.

Someone with more time on their hands than me has spotted he is following Knibbs, Smith, Savage & Dorsett on Instagram.

So whilst that means nothing definitive in terms of a move, the fact he seems to know them may be a lure and help him settle in quickly if he comes.

It’s a strangely reliable way of seeing if a player is interested

Though he’d have known Smith and Knibbs at Cambridge

Stats look impressive, and that nice mix of youth but having some good experience. Would look a good signing on paper

Yep, would have played with them both at Cambridge but again, that may well be a positive for him if he has a decision to make. Must know Dorsett and Savage from somewhere though, as not apparently played together.

Not happening until Brogue gets the nod.

Would prefer Jenson Button

Or 1980's DJ Kid Jensen.

I'd prefer Jensen Intercepter.

we need to sign Brogue first?

Had a look, he's following Matty Carson too. He's also following Wigan Athletic, so we probably can't read much into who he follows.

He started his career at Wigan.

If he's half as good as his dad, he'll be OK.

Maybe that's part of the strategy, signing kids of famous ex sportspeople.

That figures

He does follow a lot of random players though. I still wouldn't read too much into who he follows.

And then appoint the parent as boss if/when it all starts to go wrong

Could work......

I'm Weiry of appointing parents of players after the P.Ince debacle.

Does Robbie know he's being lined up as the next Reading manager?

I'm growing Weiry of all these bad puns.

Picture I saw was our lads following him.

Just realised we might actually be signing Jensen and Button

Jenson Button and David Weir?
