Another name to add to the list Chelmsford City winger Ricky Holmes is wanted by Crystal Palace, QPR and Watford The 21-year-old scored 12 goals for the Ryman Premier League as they finished third in the table and was watched in action by a host of clubs in the recent play-off game against Billericay Town. http://www.fansfc.com/crystalpalacefootballclub/news.asp?newsid=167257
Admittedly there are some nuggets of gold in the lower leagues, but they are surrounded by an awful lot of 5hit, I think we should be done with prospecting, and looking in jewellers shop windows with a view to buying proven 24 carat pieces. Come July, we need an improved, settled squad in place. We need them to be confident, practiced together and ready to take this league by storm, not more players with "potential" and last minute desperation buys.
please lets stay away from lower league ''gems'' we cant afford to be buying yet more prospects proven champ and prem quality players only
I dont like this sort of speculation, worrying. we should be link with some better players. Though if he is quality then i will eat my hat.
Knightly for Wolves has been very good apperently and he was from Grays Athletic, also Man Utd were after him. Shows that there are some talent down the lower leagues.
