No pressure James!
He did look good!I gotta feeling we may have a legend in waiting with this boy!![]()
Can you expand on this? I've never really considered it...If he was with a London club or a club in the Midlands or Manchester, he probably would never get this attention in his whole career.
You are of course completely correct Malcolm and I don't disagree with your assessment, but we wrinkly's lack the spark of youthful vivacity that this boy (and others like him) has in abundance and I suspect he has his head screwed on.If you ever needed a thread that proved the totally unrealistic expectations of some posters then this is it. The kid is as raw as a freshly pulled carrot and yet he's giving interviews to the local media and being promoted as some potential legend.
I think the point was, while it may do us good, (fans, wrinklies etc) it might not do young Jimbo any good ?Let's just chill and get a bit excited for once. It might do us good!![]()
Well if you play for Orient you might get a mention in the Hackney Gazette or East London Advertiser and if you play for Walsall you might get a para in the Birmingham Evening News. In both instances you will never get near the main sports writers or telemedia. However, If you play for Exeter as a sub for 20 mins and you wear pink boots, then you are likely to get a photo across two columns the following Monday and possibly your own phone in programme.Can you expand on this? I've never really considered it...
