Nathan Jones is manager of Charlton. Perhaps he'll put in a word for us?
Charlton fans say he's a Clive Mendonca - Sheringham hybrid. Others see the new Evan Ferguson.

and still doesn't finish on the winning side! A cracking end to end game against Cardiff this afternoon saw Charlton draw 5-5 at Dartford. Tuned in to see Karoy Anderson starting and was

In that pic at least he bears more than a passing resemblance to former Albion player (and now "Welcome to Wrexham" star) Jordan Davies:-
42 goals last season for their U18/21 sides.
That’s some going.
Even the prolific young Aaron Connolly never racked up those numbers.

That's a decent record, even at that level.
Google suggests he's from the Irish Traveller community. I mention this purely as a point of interest due to the relative rarity of such a background in football, so please, please: no derogatory responses, folks.
Would make him the subject of considerable media interest if he makes it as a footballer- I can remember Freddie Eastwood (Romany Traveller heritage) being a prolific striker for Southend and being subjected to abusive shouts about caravans everywhere he played. Hopefully we've moved on a bit since then.
Interestingly, as part of the same google search: it turns out Eric Cantona, Ricardo Quaresma and Andrea Pirlo are all of Romany Traveller heritage too. Never knew that before. Every day's a schoolday, eh?

Quaresma famously so. Gets a huge amount of abuse in Portugal off the back of it - that community is very heavily discriminated against there.

As the Albion have had a long tradition and association with players originating from the ROI, playing for the club.
If this transfer comes into fruition, hopefully he'll make the wise choice of south instead of north over the border.

Yeah, never heard of the connection myself: much less Cantona and Pirlo!

Celtic have HUGE Irish links and support though so either is possible, if there is anything in it of course

I'm aware of that, just bigging up the Albion link.

He did in Shooshh
so much so they had to close due to the lack of his trade.
And a further 31 so far this, season, apparently
Idon't know what they're like over there, but they do make themselves pretty obnoxious and unwelcome around here. Not discrimination, just facts.

Surprised Palarse aren't bidding.
Romani people or Irish Travellers?
