Albion agree contract for Irish midfielder Towell

[Sussex Nomad]

We're becoming a rather good option for decent young players.

[TomandJerry]

Seems promising

 

[Cadiz Seagull]

Another piece of the jigsaw

 

[El Presidente]

Can he play left back?

 

[Machiavelli]

We often announce signings at 5 or 6 in the evening, this is the first I can remember that came at 6 in the morning. There is at least one knowledgeable poster that might challenge my memory.

 

[CorgiRegisteredFriend]

Great to wake up to news like this, especially on a Monday.

 

[Guinness Boy]

Great stuff!

 

[Beach Hut]

Looks very promising

 

[penny's harmonica]

Great singing, looks a real talent.
I wonder who will be off come January, surely we have too many centre midfielders now

Holla I suspect

 

[GingerBeerMan]

I'm calling it now, based on absolutely nothing, I don't think he will be great. Happy to be proven wrong (also if Hughton vouches for him it's good enough for me)

Holla I suspect

Was thinking the same. This lad looks worth a punt - although supposedly wanted to go where he'd get plenty of first team football. Not sure how much of that he is going to see this season.

I can see JFC moving on permanently now in Jan - even further down the pecking order

Holla & JFC could be the fall guys. I hope our January window business has not already been done with Wilson, Parra (extension required?) & now Towell as I was looking forward to the South American themed rumours and excitement.

 

[SteveTheSeagull]

Hopefully the lad can make the step up. Irish league to Championship would be quite the gap I'd imagine?

 

[Discodoktor]

I think all us lads need a dick towell after that performance.

 

[Peteinblack]

Marvellous news, and only a few days after signing James Wilson on loan from Man Utd for the rest of the season.

The contrast with the sorry state BHA were in this time last season, in terms of league position, management and recruitment, could not be clearer.

Happy days

Holla I suspect

Yes, but to get rid of him, somebody has to want to take him. Pretty sure he's been available for a while now, but still no takers.

 

[Simster]

That's because he's a bit shìt.

From the Argus:

"ALBION have beaten off competition from at home and abroad to complete the capture of League of Ireland star Richie Towell."

Beaten Off - Dick Towell.....I think Naylor had a bit of fun with that one...
