Some confusion with some nationals reporting that he's leaving us for Hull. We released him in May but we did give him a two year deal initially.

Did we sign him for his ability or his name?

From what I saw of him, I'd suggest his name might have been an influence.

We have been developing a very high standard at u18 and u21 level he clearly didnt make the grade
