    Sometimes you've got to go out of the leagues to make it in them. Ask big Gus or George Williams.

    Hope the lad has a long and successful career in the championship or league 1 at least.

    'Gurus on here'?

    He signed for a non league club because no club in the football league wanted him nothing to do what anyone on here thought.

    He's far from proved himself capable of playing at football league level yet.

    Good luck to him hope he performs a lot better than his last spell at League One level and is at least given a chance.

    How do you know no league clubs wanted him? If he got offered to play 50 games as opposed to 15 games in a division higher, he might have thought about long term progression with his age. Obviously it's paid of for him

    Sometimes you have to go backwards before you move forwards. Good luck George, I hope it works out for you.

    He thanked the Gateshead manager for giving him a chance when 'nobody wanted him'. Good luck to him, I'm pleased he's working his way back up the ladder.

    But he also signed the deal very early in the summer. He took the decision to take a deal early on rather than playing the waiting game like a Reece Wabara type.

    He'd have probably got a league deal if he'd hung about & waited on clubs who missed out on their first targets as he was player of the month for Crawley in League 2 but he took the safe option which I don't blame him for as I'd have probably done the same

    Other clubs in the pyramid offered him stuff but on a less secure basis so he went with a more secure option.
