I think we've been watching him for a while as I was told a couple of times last year we were after him, I assumed nothing had come of it when nothing was announced pre season.

like I say, wait and see, but I do not think he's going to get there.

Bit soon to be writing Lynne off IMO. The kid is very rapid and isn't the 6 stone weakling some seem to be claiming. He's always looked pretty strong when carrying the ball back to me and he's still got plenty of growing to do.

He's too good for the U20's though and needs to go out and play for a lower league side on a dual contract to build his awareness and confidence.

I think he'll play plenty of 1st team matches for us in the future

Agreed. If the signing (short term) of Lineham helps to focus Lyne's efforts to reaching the level he needs to be then it'll have been worth it just for that.

maybe FC are just trying to trump louis sherriff and kr by seeing who can develop a young player fastest...
