Careful- ECB .might get sensitive!More chance of beating Rheidol Avenue if we don’t sign a keeper.
I wonder how many pics the resident AS will post, post gameMore chance of beating Rheidol Avenue if we don’t sign a keeper.
We've signed two players mun, but we did get 11 others off the payroll forsure!More chance of beating Rheidol Avenue if we don’t sign a keeper.
We have been told that when Franco lost his youth scholarship at Porto, it was Rio Ave that took him under their wing as a youngster. The development opportunity that Rio Ave gave Franco has stayed with him, especially when he had no other options. That time at the Big River came at such an opportunistic time, it led to a move to Leixões S.C. and that was the platform for Franco to pursue a career in professional football. His time at Leixões led to senior first team appearances which Moreirense were on to quickly. The rest as they say is history, but Franco hasn’t forgotten Rio Ave.
His agents managed to get the friendly linked in to his transfer, nothing unusual there it happens a lot, but fair play to Franco. He seems a player with morals and clearly very grateful to the club which catapulted him in to professional football.
He never played for that side?This impressed me to be honest, many might pay lip service to the clubs that helped them get their break but he asked his agent to stipulate a friendly against them as part of signing with us
No but they are the club who gave him a scholarship after Porto cut him loose and it was while progressing through their youth setup that he was snapped up by Leixoes.He never played for that side?
Maybe its only just been arrangedWhy leave it so late to announce a home friendly?
Really, never thought of thatMaybe its only just been arranged
No you probably hadn'tReally, never thought of that![]()
