Reminded me of Matt Jansens debut. If I remember correctly it was against Mansfields Tony Ford who had made about 600 appearances. Jansen tore him apart to the point where you felt sorry for him. Great prospect this lad but let's not forget the fullback was 37. If he played agains Rabiro I don't think sphe would have done quite as well.

Great performance though and really deserved to win the game for us.

He must have beat his man and crossed from the by-line over 20 times. Honourable mention for Grainger too. His crosses were as good if not as many

He must have put about five passes on a plate in the first half alone all to no avail. Jim McCallister will still be running around BP at Midnight chasing his shadow.

Along with Grainger's quality balls in we have some great delivery going into the box which rarely get challenged let alone won or scored from.

I played very bad pub football forty odd years ago, and I mean I was bad. I would have had a hat trick before half time. Why can't these guys see all you have to do is drop off, sit back between the edge of the area and the six yard box, that's a little worrying, never seen as many tasty balls pulled back waiting to be poked in. Work to be done but very promising. Beware...the lad wont play like that every week.

For me he can play both wings,in the hole/10,was brilliant seeing everyone next to me including myself rise as the ball was shifted to him!

Bridgey v Chester 2005/06 reminded me of.

Best thing of all,speaking to him before his interview,a young kid who doesn't know how good he is and totally grateful for the ovation and opportunity the club has given him. His U21 team mates were on soccer am this morning and I bet there was a part of him wishing he was there,not now as he is on the notepad of every scout present today.

Humble lad with talent,he may not reach them heights again but he will try.
Chalk and cheese to some of the attitudes of loanees we have interviewed in the past.

franksidebottom Offline Youth Team Player Posts: 250 Likes received: 121	I imagine there's very few young lads left in the game with that sort of attitude, these days most fans see young players at premiership clubs as big shots who think they've already made it. Refreshing to see really, a young lad who's prepared to go out on loan in order to better himself and earn his career

Stamfordblue Offline Ball Boy Posts: 93 Likes received: 32	On soccer am this morning Peter Beardsley was asked if the team knew how good he was he said no but their parents would. I had the pleasure of seeing Peter as a Carlisle player and he stood out. Young Alex has the potential to emulate Peter if he sticks at it and keeps himself grounded. Good luck to the lad I really hope we can be part of his development into a future England star.

Totally agree maybe Asamoah in there from the start would have got onto some of Gilliead`s balls in. - Excellent performance from the lad, and spoke well on the after match radio stuff.

flumeblue Offline Ball Boy Posts: 51 Likes received: 14	I thought the biggest accolade today was from McCallister, an experienced professional who thought I can’t get near this boy so I’ll wack him when I have the chance both off and on the ball. And when, after being booked and then being substituted and ridiculed by the crowd, did he react. No he smiled. He knew.

Was a joy to watch, up there with Ben Marshall v Dan Harding for me. Reminds me a lot of Ben but if I was going to be *slightly* critical, I would say that he needs to work a little on his final ball. He did play some good balls into space that weren't read, but a few times he played it too close to the keeper.

I'm being very picky though - the excitement in the crowd everytime he got the ball was something I've not seen in a long time - if anything, we didn't use him enough!
