Josh Davison - Sold to Wimbledon (pg 13)

edited July 2022 in General Charlton

Young striker joined the u23s from Enfield Town, came through the Peterborough academy. Scored 5 for our u23s while on trial.

Sounds promising from what Steve Avory has said:

Speaking on the new addition, Academy Manager Steve Avory said:

“He’s a centre-forward and by that I mean someone who plays right through the middle. He gives us something different to what we felt we had with our strikers. He shows up for the ball well, he holds up the ball well, he’ll get himself into goal scoring positions and he’s certainly proved that in the league games so far.”

In addition to his goals Davison has earned plaudits around the Charlton academy for his tireless work-rate; “The one thing that impresses you with Josh straight away when you watch him train is his absolute 100% work ethic each and every day. He’s very very keen to succeed and you can see the desire in the way he trains.” Avory continued.

    Scott McGleish joined from Edgware Town if you're getting your "E's" mixed up? - But then he wasnt really a success with us, more so in the Football League
  • On the bench tonight


    He has either impressed in training or we are really short haha

    Proper Non-League strikeforce

    Bonne... Leyton Orient
    Davison... Enfield

    Even Taylor when fit; Concord Rangers
  • Very pleased for him. Met him at his auntys wedding a few weeks ago seems a nice lad. 
  • Seen him play twice and was impressed both times. Quick and Powerful. Good in the air too
  • Congratulations Josh, what a meteoric rise that is.

  • He's 20 years old and ex-Peterboro academy ..... so a good age and decent pedigree.

    Interesting to hear he’s quick and not just a big target man type of striker.
  • I trust the judgement of Bow and his management team completely. They've got far more right than they have wrong. If they're happy to stick him straight on the bench that's good enough for me. Good luck Josh.
  • So Lyle isn't coming back...
  • Sorry Josh, think you'll have to wait for your debut
  • So Lyle isn't coming back...
    Hardly a replacement

    No.  Exactly.
  • I've been trying to think of an amusing reference to Jim Davidson for 20 minutes but it's just not happening.

  • He might nick, nick a goal

    Would have done better than Aneke who is nick, nicking a living ...

    Saw Scott McGleish play the last 15 minutes for Hendon at Hayes the other night. He's coaching at Hendon but still plays occasionally (he's 45 !!) 
  • He's had a pretty good career in the lower leagues and a good goal scoring record wherever he went.
  • He wants to clean his boots - he is playing at WBA on Sat by the look of things.
  • Anyone seen him play? 
  • Davison that is.
