A rumour from the skysports website (so it must be true!!!!) but knowing Watford it is, we will be told he is the next john Terry....:whoosh: I`ve heard that James Clarke the 18 year old defender at Oxford Utd. has been watched by several Championship sides . Watford have watched him 3 times now
More like what? More like Hoskins, Ashekodi, Avinel et al? It's not more like it - it's a helluva lot LESS like it. I'm not saying we shouldn't buy for the future but there are imminent issues to address.
Class player IMO. Dads a big Oxford fan. Reckons he is calm on the ball and pulls the tricks of a 40 year old. He would not be best pleased if he left, he has a "very big future."
here we go again another one of mr Boothroyds one for the future non league signings, we are looking at getting into the premiership this season at the earliest so we need players that are able to play in that league not join us now and spend a couple of seasons out on loan at lower league clubs, as for the he has been watched 3 times by us no wonder we are getting rid of our scouts if this is where they are looking.
What exactly are the tricks of a 40 year old? Hair loss, back trouble, a wandering eye when shopping with the missus, erectile disfunction?
Buying talented youngsters are a _good_ thing, so let's hope this kid can cut it if we sign him. But, Aidy has a habit of buys cr@p youngsters who will never ever break through at any level above League One. Hoskins, Avinel and Ashikodi spring to mind.
whats wrong with avinel! give the boy a chance! the rest, not so sure on.. and god i wish we'd gotten beckford now..
