    Beards put years on people!

    Sounds like he's competition for Scowen in that centre mid role.

    Not knocking the club. But we've paid a fee for him but only signed for 6 months why. Is it to save on a loan place, has he had a serious injury.

    I just don't get the 6 months at all

    With the 1 year extension option it means if he's no good he'll be gone in the summer but if he does well then we can extend the contract automatically, makes a lot of sense to me.

    Nice of him to do his bit for the disadvantaged so early in his career, by holding up the new Reds shirt for one armed men.

    When I grew one a few years ago people at work said it made me look younger! Didn't believe it myself though.

    Feel for Brad Abbott who's disappeared again after doing nothing wrong when put in. Hope this doesn't mean we are going to change formation again so we can accomodate so many of our centre midfielders. Maybe Brownhill will go back because I don't think we need five guys for two positions.

    Exactly. We sign him on loan and he's ace then he's off to Preston in July. Well done BFC.

    ineligible for JPT apparently....thought we were only signing players who could play in that?

    I get the try before you buy but we've bought him and he could just as easy turn the offer of the extension down.

    Why not just offer an 18 month deal

    It's our option, it means we can just extend he won't have a choice in it.

    It's the club decision to take up the option, the player wouldn't have a choice in it.

    I know the club must rate him but has anyone actually seen him play and if so is he any good?

    If that is the case then all well and good, like I said not knocking the club as it's a permanent deal just seemed weird just to do for 5-6 months with the option
