How tall is he?

How tall is he?

More importantly is he faller than Jake Wright

 

[Topper Haines]

Taller? Or fatter?

 

[Osleroad]

How tall is he?

6'3"

 

[SteMerritt]

6'3"

So just over 1 and a quarter Jake Wrights then? You can't use feet and inches on this forum, everything is measured in units of Jake Wrights.

 

[Grumpy Git]

6'3"

Thanx.

Might not even be that:

 

[Witneyoldfella]

Thanx.

I saw him play for Harrow, good with his feet and a big lad. Great prospect

Or in old currency .... almost one and a half Roy Burtons.

'Following the news that the shot-stopper had put pen to paper on a permanent move to Oxford City, Potts shared the news via Instagram on Wednesday (12 June), writing: “Congratulations, mate.'
From West Ham Zone. Good to see their knowledge reaches past just the top 20

McDermott is leaving as Director of football at Hibernian

 

[Vancouver Yellow]

Has joined Braintree Town on a 6 month loan

Excellent, they’re National League so will give him some good experience.

 

[Leysboy]

He was always signed as a long term project, and was always going to go out on loan. Braintree is close to home, and a good move for all concerned. Great for his progress, and let’s hope he’s one for the future.

 

[Foley]

He looked good v City I thought.
Hopefully kicks on in NL

Just promoted to the NL, despite finishing 5th in NLS last season......

.....as well as getting to play at a decent level, he may get a lot of practice playing for them!

Anyone know what's happened to Knightbridge?

After playing in Braintree's first two games of the season, he's not been seen for their last three. Doesn't even appear to be on their bench, despite the fact they've only seemingly been naming five subs (out of a possible seven at NL level).

I know they signed another non-league journeyman keeper - did that p**s us off enough that we recalled him? Or did he get hurt?

Saw Braintree fans on twitter saying he was one of if not the worst player theyd ever seen, so I doubt theyre too keen on playing him

After 2 league matches, a 3-0 and 1-0 defeat, seems harsh.
Unless he scored all 4. And celebrated.

We've already had people write off Kioso and Scarlett so I think we should take other football fans opinions with a huge pinch of salt!

 

[brightonyellow]

Not even in the squad again today for Braintree. Is he injured?

 

[Stranger]

I thought his loan had been terminated?

 

[Jster]

I've seen people say that, but without any reference.

 

[Stranger]

Well I think I read it on here, so it must be true

 

[Osleroad]

Someone said they'd signed another keeper so he was right out the picture

 

[tonyw]

This is definitely true.

They signed this guy - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lucas_Covolan - a Brazilian non-league journeyman.

Still, they've only conceded two goals in the five games he's played for them, so hard to argue with that decision (even though it's not good for us)

Braintree only had 5 (of a possible 7) subs on the bench last night, away at York. None of which was a keeper...

The mystery of Jacob Knightbridge continues...

We should recall him and let him go somewhere else where he may get game time
