Josh Edwards - Back as a sub v Cardiff (p37)

Richard J

Anyone know how tall he is ?I have seen different heights quoted.

I also understand he is a long throw specialist. Something we haven't had for years.

He’s big 😀

Scotch is a drink, you should actually use the word Scottish or Scot….but then it wouldn’t rhyme with crotch of course….oh well, nice try soapy.🫣

Lived in Scotland for 9 months back in 2013. They used to love it. Or maybe not.

Just caught up with the video, seems a nice lad and doesn’t seem fazed that he’s making a big move from home to an area he doesn’t know with no mates to turn to. Let’s hope he has the strength of character to adapt and thrive.

I did it the other way mate when i was 23 lived nr Dunfermline. You're right no family, friends and you lose all your contacts you have made over the years etc.

Can get a bit lonely but i am sure Mrs Leaburn and other team mates will sort that out. 

Not sure do the club have accommodation that players can move into before they sort themselves out. Or am I being too old fashioned.

Looking forward to seeing him play. I think it’s wrong to assume he’s here as back up to Small or that he’ll be playing as the left sided centre back in a back three.

The fact he signed a four year deal shows he’s highly rated.

Good interview, dont think I've ever heard Shields really talk about his time with us.

Something he rightfully only really does briefly in the interview

Well yeah we need the option to call those games off somehow! At the moment it's only Anderson and sometimes Asiimwe and Kanu that get called up

None of the Lyle Taylor "it's only a job" type nonsense, he seems like a lad who really loves his football.

Refreshing.

The players we’ve signed this summer seem like good people from the interviews I’ve seen.  Hope they are good footballers too .

Alan Curbishley, and Son of Curbs, always judged character as well as ability when signing a player.

It seems NJ is doing the same.

I think it goes with giving the manager the authority to pick and choose the signings and not someone with a laptop and an ego.

I mean last summer there was a lot of talk of "no dickheads." 

Not saying any dickheads were recruited last summer or this, but just a reminder we've been here before.

Looked very good today I thought, Small was one of last seasons few highlights but he's got serious competition for his place now. One particularly good intervention stopped a goal.

CharltontillidieCOYR

Very good against pompey aswell last week

Immense

I think Edwards might offer a bit of steel away from home or against the tougher nuts in the league. Small a bit of flair when we need to keep our foot on the peda at home.l 

Addicktion_to_red

Thought he was outstanding today. Might be the signing of the pre-season

4 year deal baby

Thierry Small might have a problem getting back into the team.

I think we might see Thierry more at home when we play a bit more expansively
