Max Watters - SIGNING CONFIRMED

[RonnieBird]

Wouldn't ordinarily be pleased about the idea trawling the lower leagues for immediate first team places, but this boy does seem talented and a good investment .
I will say that he had a lot of time and space he won't get in the Championship for his YouTube goals and some were a bit scrappy but then he can only play where he's playing and no one knows whether he can step up or not . I hope so, and I kind of have a feeling that he will do.

That's where Sir Neil did his best business for us.

Yeah that's absolutely true Eric. You're right to point that out.

Unfortunately it was his expensive buys which were rubbish .

I don't want to list them because I don't like to knock players but I can't help saying Gary Madine!!! There were plenty of others too, and really you can't help thinking that for the millions he paid we should be a fantastic team.

On the whole we shouldn't be dipping into the lower leagues for first team bargains , although we should certainly be bringing guys like this one in and bringing them on. He might be a revelation and I think in his case that's possible , but he might be ruined if he's dropped straight in the deep end against much quicker defenders because that'd ruin his confidence.
Actually I think that happened to Gavin Whyte a bit , while it had the opposite effect on Curtis Nelson, who'd been his team mate.

Mind you, I don't want or mean to be negative about this boy.
