RedM Posted April 21, 2004 Report Share Posted April 21, 2004 He doesn't look very happy in the photo though. I suppose being offered Bristol City when you were hoping for Liverpool explains that though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
headhunter Posted April 21, 2004 Report Share Posted April 21, 2004 Great news but a slap in the face to Lita and now surely the end for Marvin Brown. I've said before on this forum that we should be looking at the cast off's from the elite who have been taken to a level that should make them virtual first team prospects with us at age 19. Let's hope he doesn't turn into another Shaun Penny - sent to Millfield by City in the 70's and destined for stardom but never got a sniff in the 1st team under Dicks who always opted for experience Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Port Said Red Posted April 21, 2004 Report Share Posted April 21, 2004 Accrording to liverpool, he is the clubs top scorer this season....and they are letting him go?? me thinks there is a story there somewhere.... And West Ham have had him on trial but haven't picked him up.... something doesn't add up. The lad looked great yesterday, the only thing I did notice was his fits of pique when anybody failed to get the perfect cross into him. Maybe that was noticed elsewhere as well?

Gits :@ I'm not sue if I am allowed to cut & paste , so I won't! It says Bristol City have agreed to sign him after a recent trial. He is an under 19 who is due to be released at the end of the season.He has scored more goals than any other player this term, has also been on trial at West Ham. Liverpool Fc wish him well for his new career at ashton Gate. It says a little more but thats the abridged version, we can't all type like you! Sound pretty definate to me!

cidergeorge Posted April 21, 2004 Report Share Posted April 21, 2004 I say welcome to the lad. Alot of reds up ere reckon Houllier is making yet another mistake in selling off the talent rising through Liverpools' academy. If he can score 8 in 3 then that should be fine by any city suppporters standard. The lad's from south Liverpool as well even better! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bcfc seattle Posted April 21, 2004 Report Share Posted April 21, 2004 so are we signing him effective immedietely or at the end of the season?

Stoke_Gifford_Red Posted April 21, 2004 Report Share Posted April 21, 2004 Sounds like as the transfer window is gone and Liverpool still hold his registration he can't sign to after the season.

CityDuke14 Posted April 21, 2004 Report Share Posted April 21, 2004 Why should the writing be on the wall for our current young strikers? How about this team for next season Phillips, Woodman,Hill,Coles,Old man Carey Goodfellow,Wilkshire,Doherty,Great Grandad Murray, Gillespie,Miller Subs Lita,Fortune,Brown(A),Brown(M)Brown(S,Goalkeeper) I think this bench could cover every postion and the team could produce 100 goals for(as last season) with less than one per game against(as this season) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lotusman Posted April 22, 2004 Report Share Posted April 22, 2004 Smart piece of business on Danny's part, however,expectations need to be controlled. An interesting comparison which illustrates reserve team action versus first team is that of Peter Spiring. 30 years back he came on the scene as Chris Garlands successor after his move to Chelsea.Spiring had great pace and grabbed a few goals and was quickly spotted by Liverpool and despatched for 65k.Despite being their reserve team top scorer for a couple of seasons he was never able to get a first team game,he then made the move to Harry Haslams Luton but was unable to halt their relegation from the 1st div.A little later he then made the move to 4th division Hereford and enjoyed a long period with them. Realistically unless a youngster has the potential of international quality then the Premiership holds next to no opportunities.Good luck to Gillespie,he's exercising wise judgement realising that to fulfill potential you need to have a platform to perform,pity Rosenoir was'nt as bright. Re."slap in the face for Lita",not at all, just an example of greater competion and hopefully of raising standards, and that surely is what the world of competitive football is all about.
