Well he's an unknown one that's for sure, but he sounds very good from Justin's description so I'm confident this'll be a decent signing. Good age too.

Now this is strange - I was looking on their forum to try and find out about him, and came across this:

"Hi to everyone,i dont know if you heard but mj signed for rushden&diamonds yesterday which will be full time footy.firstly matt and i would like to thank everyone at aveley for helping matty a achieve his dream.........".. posted in May! So we're well behind. :lol:

There are a few interesting other comments on there - http://www.pitchero.com/clubs/aveley/?s ... 44&start=0

MJ ???? And he'll have to sort that hair out, I'll bet JE knows a good barbers :lol:

This is exactly the kind of player we should be signing. Hungry and determined and by the sounds of it a good player. Young too. Well done JE.

Welcome, Matt!

Seems to be an impossible task finding much on him (espeically with Aveley's amazing empty player profile page :roll: ) but from what JE has said, he sounds promising and well done to him for looking down the leagues, have been wanting us to do this for a while, there's obviously the possibility that he may not be up to this level but it's definitely worth a go as who knows we may have uncovered a gem and probably for little money as well, seeing as though he's come from 2 leagues down.

As well as sounding like a good, young player with a fair bit of potential, he brings a bit of height to the side. Two good signings announced today by the sound of things.
