    Not your average 18yr old lad, is he? Comes across very well

    Smashing lad. Nice to be able to big up the young uns without Hemsie sniping.

    Talked about the deal, the buzz around the club, the relationship with flicker and the squad, the support from the fans, the competition for places, his aspirations and gradual return from injury. Displays maturity beyond his years. On and off the pitch

    Flicker brought Ben Mansford in, was a good un. Is that an 18 year old's view of the world or something more? He said it twice.

    Well, to be fair he's possibly more likely to have been Flicker's contact than Cryne's. i'd love to know the process that brought Ben in.

    Really? Cryne is friends with Watkins, Mansford came with him. No?

    I would imagine the request for new blood was part of the negotiations with flickers team, and the 'assurances' they asked for. Whether or not flicker specifically pinpointed Mansford - wouldn't have thought so. I'm sure PC and Watkins are for more experienced in corporate structure, and would have thought they would have been the ones managing the recruitment process
