Brighton lining up a move for goalkeeper Christian Walton

They have taken him on trial so that Gus Poyet and his coaching staff can cast an eye over him.

He will go for an "Argyle" price...ie 10k

If the transfer fee could be used immediately to strengthen the squad, and tbh he isn't anywhere near the first team, would anyone blame us for selling him?

Say £200k + add ons?

The trouble is it won't all go to the club, paying off historical debts, and even then Sheridan wouldn't get what's leftover.

£200k.

We'll end up with a tenth of that, £50k if we really push for a Plymouth price!

like the o/s report on this sums up the club at the moment.

The club feels that it is beneficial for its young players to gain an insight and understanding into the workings of different clubs at different levels of the football pyramid.

in other words we are trying to offload the kids for as little as possible.

They really do take us for idiots. Let's send them Gilmartin, see if they notice.

If he's that good then stick him in the first team, can't be any worse than the two clowns we've got at the moment

100%.

The propaganda machine at HP runs like a train. They've got the Forza Nerds drumming over dissent, the PASOTI mouthpieces clamping down on anything untoward, the Herald/Sparks in their back pockets, and the official site is written in pure doublespeak.

The OS is a total joke. I only ever go on it to connect to Player. It really isn't worth reading anything it contains. I know they have to be impartial but Lord Haw Haw was apparently taught everything he knew from our site.

I think Vital linked him with a £300k move to Fulham last year. We either sell now and (hopefully) re-invest or keep him and hope he becomes a decent keeper. It's pretty obvious which way the current board will go.

I haven't seen Chenoweth play, but most reviews of him seem to put him at average at best.

Our youth side does seem to produce one or two decent players- possibly due to the impact of the departed Gordon Bennett (it seemed shite before he joined)? Hopefully Hodges, Stoney and co can maintain the good work.

good job atds around then.Surprised this site hasn't come under attack yet eg virus attacks,

Sheridan has admitted there are 'a few clubs' chasing Argyle's highly-rated 17-year-old goalkeeper Christian Walton. The teenage shot-stopper has spent this week training with Championship side Brighton and Hove Albion.Southampton, Tottenham Hotspur and Blackburn Rovers are among the clubs who have been watching Walton in action for Argyle's under-18s side this season.
