Branston Pickle 4,150 Posted July 1, 2023 (edited) Good stuff - though it says they’ve reached terms with us and Leeds, so perhaps not totally guaranteed. He’s obviously one for the future, but seems a good prospect. Edit - appears I misread the article, all good if we have got the lad. Let’s hope he breaks through as we hope - we’ve signed quite a few who haven’t, but it’s always going to be the case.

Age should not be a Barrier if good enough ! but likely one for future i like this type of signing and something as a club we should do more of like the past Aarons /lewis /Godfrey even Maddison , We should buy as many as these up and coming players from lesser teams as possible , this will be where the bigger profits might come from also we might find a good couple of players for first team in a few years , 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

TheGunnShow 7,377 Posted July 1, 2023 Nothing wrong with this and clearly Kellen Fisher's signing is in the same boat. If he falls short, we haven't lost very much. If he comes out big, we get a nice fee, some great performances, hopefully improved cachet and further underline our reputation as an excellent place for promising talent to come and develop. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Great fan attitude here. ‘If it’s not immediate and covered in fairy lights I’m bored’. Some of us on here like to see the club proactively looking to the future. Maybe have a bit more long term mentality. Welcome to the club that lad. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

There have been other promising youngsters signed by City, but have then fallen by the wayside. It is not by chance, as it is clear we are putting a fair bit of work into this. And I would suggest Gibbs looks a better prospect than ever did Godfrey or Lewis when the broke through into the first team. Of course, there are some on here who disagree with that policy and claim that we should do everything to block player's further progress. By doing everything to stop any sale to a PL club. Yep, that would play wonderfully well to any youngster considering joining us., Edited July 1, 2023 by RobJames Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
