MickeyBennett · January 2012

Apparently Chris Solly is on Stuart Pearce's 'long list' for the GB Olympic team.

Surely it's a short list if Solly's on it?

Lol.

Never happening. As much as I would like to see it.

If Solly is in the squad, Pearcey is definately planning to raise the bar with supporters expectations!

Could do without the attention tbh. If he did make the squad and the team does well premier league clubs will come sniffing.

Isn't it about 200 players? Haha

Good to see we can get some sort of recognition, even small, in this tin pot league. And hopefully some motivation to Solly to keep up his fantastic development this season

Just googled this and it's on Solly's agent's website, so guess it must be true, though as Allez says it is a loooong list.

Solly linking up with Beckham down the right - awesome!

My five year old got me into trouble with the good lady after his rendition of the usuals version of Mr Solly s song!

I think he has a fighting chance, actually. Think about the pot SP has to pick from - only two players over 23 (Becks will be the third), no-one who plays at the Euros, only English players. If Solly continues to impress, and we carry on and get promotion, I think there will be number of Championship players featuring. Looking at the list of eligible goalkeepers, one of those will probably be an over age player too.
