And if he were that good he’d have been signed by Saints. The games history is littered with such players, big stars in the lower leagues but utterly out of their depth in SL, we’ve had a fair few.
Sometimes a punt pays off but when you can get an utterly proven player like Lineham why would you even consider it. For a club like ours with a tiny budget it would be suicidal.
We will start next season with two highly proven SL wingers, that to me is far better than just one and a total uknown quantity on the other.
It’s a huge no for me.
Note: that’s not to say I don’t think he’s any good, he could turn out to be brilliant, but he’s not worth the risk. If we are going to take risks let’s take them with our own youth players.
