Wonder whether he would prove useful as a sounding board for Robbo/DOF/something like that??
U23s with view to breaking into the first team squad i believe?
Unconfirmed rumours that sam the elder is taking the lease over on a derelict grade 11 listed hostelry close to the breeze block with a view to rebranding n reopening it in time for the new season?

Agreed, I would assume the expectation is to put pressure on the starting centre halves players as Nico Jones will also.
I hope we've picked up a quality prospect due to Bury's current issues, rather than they were releasing him anyway and it becomes another Tsun Dai scenario as that is not good for either party.
Welcome Sam and I hope you have a successful spell with us.

Looks and sounds like a good prospect.

Well, stop doing "this" then.
I think bury are removing the U23s so a load of players looking elsewhere.
1 year contract, low risk, could be a very good addition.
MK have also released some youth players that came through with KR so will be interesting to see if any end up here
Boring.
Full on clickbait headline for the OM.
Could be anything. Welcome aboard, Little Sam.

In Dan Harris’ most recent interview he said the U23s are being restructured to allow a clearer path to the first team for the successful u18 players. Next season the u23s will be made up from the few existing u23 squad, players coming up from u18!and a few senior players that need games. He said 2 or 3 players for external academies would be added but no more than that so not expecting too many youngsters through the door.

This looks promising for the U23's, hopefully showing intent for bringing in players for the first team squad.

I agree.
The success I guess will, this time next year, be how many have played first team games and made an impact.

Allardyce Looks To Make His Name | Oxford United Football Club
Signing Sam Allardyce certainly caught the eye for Oxford United yesterday, although the player in question was Sam Allardyce junior; grandson of the former England Manager.

We've even made the national press, amazing what a big name signing can do!

Little Big Sam! Oxford sign Allardyce's 18-year-old grandson
Little Big Sam is a centre half like his grandfather. He began his career as part of Manchester United's academy before moving through the ranks at Bury.

I like Little Big Sam for his forum name as it becomes a quick LBS in shorthand.
