TBF they probably have a better setup to bring him on. We usually require players that are almost ready or maturing such as Mullarkey. There are a dirth of players that have been treated like this, such as Taylor to name but one.

Wonder if a loan later in the season is out of the question ?

Lawrence Taylor got plenty of game time but suffered primarily from being the most overrated player in the history of football. I don't know if it was because of the state of the club at the time, but he did a bit of good passing and everyone lost their minds. Saw him playing in the 10th tier for Cheadle Town last season and he didn't particularly stand out. Some potential, but all that stuff about him being first name on the team sheet and the next Duncan Watmore etc was absolutely bizarre.

So true, it was beyond bizarre. He was nothing more than average (which was obviously amazing compared to everyone else at the time).

It was like being in the Twilight Zone! People saying he was better than Richman and Moult and was the future of the club. Thank god we're in better days now
