Tom Bilson (GK)? (2 Viewers)

Today's backup keeper is a complete unknown to me. Does anyone know much about the lad? Ive never heard of him, and usually i know the youth players, be it if only by name. MR must trust him to have him on the bench for a league match.

Edit. He must of thought it through after sending Addai on loan that this kid would be the back up. Hopefully its a good sign.

What's happened to Skuza?
Who's keeping goal for the U23's at the minute?

Burge was sick. Only reason he was on the bench. Not heard anything about the kid which logic dictates we would have done had he been good enough for first team. Will be interesting to see who is in net or Saturday now.

So true, why wasn't the Polish prodigy on the bench? Maybe Bilson is better (says the guy who's never heard of him).

Hasn't skuza left?

According to the first site I clicked on having googled his name he left on a free last season and is playing first team somewhere.

Skuza was released and went to play in his home land

Bilson is a 17 year old who we signed from Leicester at the start of this season. He is a first year scholar and has played quite a few games for the 23s

Was he the smallish lad who was warming up with the keepers a few weeks ago?

No, that was the U15 goalkeeper. He wasn’t actually part of the squad it was for their football education for the community day

No - that was Willie Carr

Ah, I thought he looked a bit small!

He'd have been fine if it were the smaller set of goals selected for him to use.
