Very positive news0

Good to hear. I see videos the other day of Davison training with the first team, almost forgotten about him.

Fucking best news out the club for weeks.2

Great news! I was really worried that Albie might play well for the next 8 games, then sign for another club. I can't believe how much slimmer he now looks, it's as if someone has photoshopped his body!

I'm happy they've both signed up. They were always going to be easier contracts to agree given their ages, but it's nice to see three year deals being used on players we actually want.Side note though, those pictures. Aside from the fact it looks like Davison has used the lockdown period to pile on as much muscle as possible, those contract signing pictures are hilarious. Sat at a school desk outside with Bow awkwardly stood grinning in the background. Regardless of what happens with Covid, I want all contract signing pictures to be taken like this from now on.11

Great stuff... Especially well done to Josh, for Albie its a bit of a given that he should deserve a new deal but its worth remembering how well Davison did when called upon in January10

Also, Davison's deal is two years with an option for another year, so if he does well it's a three year deal. Odd to see us produce contracts that seem to make sense.

Hopefully we see new deals for more senior players following4

Great news. Now for Doughty please.15

Where is the money coming from?5

I did wonder this. I thought signing or extended deals came with a signing on fee? If so, who's paying this I wonder?dickplumb said:Where is the money coming from?

I am really happy for both of them but Albie has been at the Club since he was 9. I have watched him from U16s through U18s, U23s and the first team. Very impressed with how Josh Davison played for the U23s. He also was excellent for the first team against WBA.4

Smart move. Young hungry players who will be here even if we drop into league one and develop further. Doughty signing would be great but think his head was turned by the Fulham bid in January. Does anyone else think there are any academy players coming through ?0

I was critical of Morgan’s weight pre lockdown but now he looks like he would benefit from McDonald’s opening3

Not sure it was a given for Albie at all to be honest. There is a great player in there but he hasnt shown it consistently yet IMO. I wouldn't have been that surprised if he had left when his contract was up. The fact he started last game is a real positive and the new deal means Bow and his team are clearly very happy with him which is great news.ForeverAddickted said:Great stuff...

Not yet in these twos class but at Under 23 level there are (in my opinion) AMB, Vega, Powell, Mingi, Vennings, Keefe and Wierdu. I would also add Wassim Aouachria, a very promising forward from Marseille or Lyon, who was injured the whole of last season. I don't know their contract situations, so may be already sorted.ct_addick said:Smart move. Young hungry players who will be here even if we drop into league one and develop further.

Some very promising Under 18's including Albon and Aaron Henry who made his debut in the FA Cup v West Brom. Also rate the goalkeeper Osaghae. I am sure there are others. Hope this is helpful.12 -
Nice to see the youngsters given a fair shot and good luck to them, that aside it does make you wonder who is paying/ negotiating the new deals with the current question marks with ownership and any funds..2

The forced perspective (why is it being used?!) makes Albie and Josh look like giants. Wouldn't want to spill their pints!killerandflash said:Great news!

Not too sure about Mingi or Vega, but certainly the rest are good prospects.bolloxbolder said:

Got high hopes for Albie so this is good news0

Josh looking huge1

Is it costing money to renew contracts?dickplumb said:Where is the money coming from?0 -
I agree that Vega may be a punt out of all the others I mentioned, but before his injury Mingi really impressed after a less than auspicious start when on trial the season before last.dickplumb said:

Social distancing and making sure all three could be in the same shot!PaddyP17 said:The forced perspective (why is it being used?!) makes Albie and Josh look like giants. Wouldn't want to spill their pints!6 -
Excellent news.
Sensible contract lengths too giving them time to develop and if we sell them we get a sensible fee (madness I know).
I'm surprised that people are surprised that men in their late teens/early 20s change and develop physically especially when they are professional athletes.
As usual, wise words from Steve Gallen on the improvements that Albie had to make and the learning that Josh still has to do.5
