Here he is. 18 years old. Currently Wigans 4th choice keeper but apparently quite good.

I spoke to his Mum yesterday whilst he was being treated and also to the Doctor.

He has a torn muscle in his thigh

One thing I noticed he did very well was find players in positions with his throws. I don't think we get that so much with Stu or Richard, who tend to pump it long. Thought the lad did very well and hope he recovers soon.

If it really is torn muscle as suggested on another thread I fear we may not see him again in an Alty shirt....but I hope Im wrong and good luck to the lad in his recovery and future career...looked very useful to me

He's no Sedge though   :D

He had a decent kick on him aswell and his aerial play was fantastic. Saunders, however... ;D

I can't imagine who on earth would give you a peake, let alone 10. Bizarre.
