Wasiri Williams - new signing

[Risc]

Another.

Looks like non league, will join up with u23s but he’s 22 so taking a punt by the looks

1 year deal with option of another 12 months.
Seems like a low risk punt and will give depth to the squad along with the Wood signing today also.

Next level!.. two untested youngsters barely out of youth football and non-league.. looks like we're so skint we can't even buy League One and Two players so we go for the cheap, cheap purchases.. why don't we go foreign like Angel Rangel, the whole world is intercontinental but England has always been detached

Apparently this lad does a lot of charity work. He’s being given the opportunity of a lifetime, hope it works out for him.

He sounds like a great character, good luck to him.

Don't get me wrong, I'm behind them, but I'm skeptical on these two signings.. we've spent millions on unproven England youth internationals and the carcass of the big boy clubs youth players and the Scottish experiment and it's usually been disastrous

Seems to have been around a few clubs at not a testing level.
Those clubs have included Lewisham Borough, Tunbridge Wells, Sheppey United, Hatcham FC, Braintree Town and Corinthian Casuals.

Championship will be too much of a leap

He’s from just up the road from Brighton, where Russ if from. Probably coincidence.

That’s the spirit.

Risca, get with it man.
This is a very poor signing for the level we are currently at.

No different to when we used to sign people like Rangel, Ash Williams etc?

Brexit makes it far more difficult to bring in foreign players such as we did with Rangel due to work permit issues.

We cannot sign players from lower European leagues now apparently due to Brexit, they would need to be of a superior level to our available British players otherwise they would need to apply for work visa’s etc.

Not sure how Wolfe got in last year tho?

We weren't in the Championship then were we or owned by unambitious suits

Can't spend what we haven't got, unless you want to gamble on the existence of the club.

I'm glad they are looking after us to be honest.
