    A connection with Adkins from his time at Southampton (which might be how the rumour was created!)

    Would be happy with that. I was hoping we’d look at him and Harry Chapman as options on the wing.

    Would they have been there at the same time?

    Or Reading?

    Incorrect. Adkins was not at Southampton when Sims was with the Saints. 
  • Luke Shaw was though. #justsayin

    He was when Sims was in the youth, I assume he's at least familiar with Adkins as he seems to have a strong focus on bringing players through. Good player, young, would be pleased with him.

    As a 14/15 year old. Would Adkins take note of players that young?

    Adkins would definitely have taken a keen interest in the academy, even those in the junior age ranges

    We're signing Luke Shaw?

    Looks like Sims was about 16 when Adkins left Southampton so he'll definitely know of him. Don't believe there's any relevance there at all though, just because Sims was a decent 16 year old at Southampton doesn't mean he'd be right for a League 1 club now.

    He was on loan at Doncaster last season, 1 goal and 8 assists in 28 games. Didn't play in either of the games against us, can play on both wings.

    Isn’t that a good thing? It might mean there may be some truth in it

  • Ffs surely if he is willing to stay in our league we need to go all out for him aswell

  • What happened to that Championship move then...?

    No chance he comes here to be back up for Stockley.
  • What happened to that Championship move then...? 
    Yup, didn’t some people say they knew a Championship move was a done deal months ago. 
  • Smells a lot like an agent trying to move along a deal, as per.

    Not really backup just competition for places and squad depth and tbf i think as an allround player wld prefer stockley the backup if anything

    they have norwood and bonne aswell so could say the same for them
  • Josh Sims had 1 goal and 6 assists for Doncaster last season up to 15th December. 

    After that had 2 assists in total for the rest of the season.

    It's on the other forum, from an unnamed source. The guy couldn't even say it was Josh Sims out of respect for his source, but curiously was able to say a number of clues which meant it had to be Josh Sims.
