Agreed.

The Scottish Championship is probably about his level, although given OTW's comments above perhaps that is not even guaranteed.
As a matter of interest, given that a former EFL L2 squad player has moved to a good second tier Scottish side, where do we think TRFC would fit into the Scottish league structure? Purely hypothetical, but I'm guessing low Premiership or high Championship.

Hard to say. We’ve had some players like Ash Taylor, Ged Brennan or even Kane Hemmings who’ve had decent spells up there. Others like Cole Stockton albeit for just one season at Hearts weren’t successful.
Probably right that’s we’d likely be a yo-yo club between the SPL and the championship.

Nat Knight-Percival signs for Southport.

Wrapping up an earlier point, Oldham have now arranged their final friendly - Warrington away. Should probably have guessed that!

We must be due to start announcing friendlies any day now. Surely. Like going cold turkey here!!

Apart from a few bright moments for us, I just don't think he was good enough. As always, time will tell.
He had some ability, but nowhere near the same level of Walker for instance. And as a young man he could have become a better athlete to help compensate as he never looked particularly fit for me.

No great surprise - will be interesting to see where he ends up. L1 I am guessing?

Talking of Everton, I see Rob apter's younger brother Matthew Apter has signed pofessional terms with Everton today.
