  • nothing not to like about that signing, excellent stuff.

    I suspect Jacko is more pleased that anyone!

    I don't know, I'm sure someone will be along to say he's too short or we should be playing our own youth left back Archie Edwards instead.

    Talking of Archie Edwards whats happened to him? He was meant to be the next one to come through but seems to have not progressed.

    Doubt it.
    Da Silva is England under 19 captain and is a quality signing for this level.
    Nothing not to like.
  • With page out for a significant time we basically have 1 rb and 1 lb in the squad. I think we still need an experienced utility full back who can cover both sides...
  • The pictures are definitely not taken this morning so why wait till now to announce? Surely they wouldn't have taken the photos etc before it was all agreed?
  • are the pics from when he signed last season by chance?

    Solly and Barnes doing that will probably be enough from RDs point of view.

    He's wearing Hummel kit..

    And I tend to agree. But if DaSilva breaks down early season (he hasn't had a break all summer) we have nothing. And if Solly has his usual 2 months out and Barnes doesn't hit the ground running we are going to struggle. If feel much more comfortable if we brought in someone like chicksen who can cover both sides.

    This! Getting rid of chicksen was so so stupid
    All about saving and making money rather than player ability. Nothing has changed.
  • I reckon that picture has been photo-shopped on to a valley background ;-)

    Konsa, Lennon, Barnes, Paige, Solly, and now DaSilva. More than enough cover for a league 1 club and I feel any money would be better spent elsewhere.

    I think it's time to lay this one to rest.

    The times I saw him cover at RB, Chicksen was terrible. Completely one footed and vulnerable on his outside

    Don't agree. He's an ordinary League 1 player. I'd rather the money was used for a second right back rather than 3 left backs and 1 right back.

    Unlike Charlton to put all their eggs in one basket
  • Great stuff.

  • More good news, great signing.
  • JDS was at the training ground yesterday so it is probably safe to say the pic was from then
  • He had a great game at Bradford which probably secured his move.

    They've built a replica Valley at the Training Ground then : - )
    I'm told it's not beyond the realms of possibility that he could have been transported from one place to another

    Or a trick of the light perhaps


  • Proper footballer
  • How tall is Archie ?

    "Archie Edwards" now that is a proper footballers name. ;)


    I always liked the name "Albert Quickfall" - played for Sheffield Wednesday and then joined man Utd after the Munich air disaster.
