18 yr old for the U23 squad. Good luck to him.
Booooo! He’s not Ricky Holmes! Booooo!

Let's hope his time with us warrants a lengthier Wikipedia mention than his dad's "At the end of the 2004-5 season Bradbury was playing for Oxford United."

High praise indeed!
His dad, Lee Bradbury, Man City paid mega money for him when he was a youngster/teenager, about £3m in the mid 1990's. He was considered the future and Man City tried to invest big money in youth but the experiment failed.
He think he played in the Man City side when we won 2-0 at Maine Road, a result which nudged Man City towards relegation to Div 3 and to play their local rivals Macclesfield Town.

Lee Badbuy as he was sometimes called.
When I was quite young, I remember Lee scoring a peach of a bicycle kick, fence end I think.
Against Torquay, early in the season. Maybe a Tuesday (more likely Wednesday, remember the curse) night?
Definitely a midweek game, I remember it was dark and I'm pretty sure we didn't win. What's this curse you speak of?
there's more than one curse.....
We didn't play on Tuesday nights at home for a long time because of the gypsy curse. I believe the curse was banished when we beat Exeter in the conference on a Tuesday night
Im sure im not making this up!
Christ, I sure hope the Catalan curse is broken quicker than that.

Pretty sure we won that 1-0 and dominated, just couldn't find the net until the end.
Wait.. so does that mean he’s not in the u23 squad? I’m confused... ?

We didn't win a home game on Tuesday night for several years. (Maybe as many as 6?)
I thought that was the Tuesday curse and quite separate from the gypsy curse or Lee Bradbury.
The latter reinvented himself as a full-back at Bournemouth with a remarkable degree of success iirc.
I 'have form' for not knowing what I'm talking about though.

That team probably shouldn't have been as bad as it actually was.

I don’t remember much about Lee Bradbury, that was the time I saw fewest games due to shitty new ground and horrible manager. However when he was sold we got relegated
If I remember correctly Kassam wouldn't let him play at the end as it would trigger a new contract
Interesting. No fanfare with him signing or comments from manager etc but the official site has him as one of our first team forwards?
Scored for Hungerford last night
Another Kelleher. Invisible. There again, I only have to travel 30 miles to see him. Might just do that.
Part of me thinks a lot of these young players will be allowed to leave for free in the future, with hefty sell on percentages. We have too many youngsters for them all to make it here, although the majority should be able to make it in professional football.

Watford had already arranged for him to go on loan at hungerford, so all we are doing is keeping things as they were, while having him train with us during the week. Seems to be a perfect arrangement as he had already been settling in there and will be playing regularly, but we can monitor him in the mean time and decide when he is ready to come back in house..
