Rumour - Ben Wright

Ben Wright, 19 year old Hampton & Richmond striker, trialled for RFC reserves v Aldershot in December. I hear we've offered £80k and HnR want £100k. Doesn't sound like much of a gap...

not a gap in money but a hell of a gap in experience - whats happened to the young lad we bought recently from Tooting? - does Sir Syrup keep them locked away in his dungeon??

I think it's only for 1 month so far...
Tooting could certainly use him for longer - they've lost 11 of their last 12 games.

Cost Fulham a lot less than that, I hear. Closer to £40k. Dunno 'bout wages.

We can sign Craig Mackail-Smith now as part of the deal to not go after Ben Wright.
