    Leaburn is back to doing what Leaburn did when he was last fully fit. Not sure he can claim Hylton has changed his game. 


  • Would keep Hylton as he's potentially offering something more than just playing

    Hylton’s training with the first team and the situation will be assessed after the window.
  • I assume that means he's not registered with us, so could sign for someone else after the window if we don't want him.

    I thought that was the plan anyway. I wouldn't be surprised if he signs as a FT coach now Chuks is back.

    We probably have a "proper" target in mind but if (when) that falls through, Danny Boy gets another couple of months to see out the season.

  • If Danny is open to hanging up the boots surely get him on the coaching team full time?

    He now has his UEFA A License, so wouldn't mind that. Again this is what I have been saying about Danny Hylton all along. Yes he is our worst forward, but I would be concerned (as a fan) if our best forward was a player/coach.

    When did he get his A license? His LinkedIn headline suggests he’s still studying towards it.

    Read it (the linkedin post) wrong he says  Block 4 complete. Don't know how many blocks there are in total (someone feel free to elaborate).
    However if we are just going by his linkedin headline then he is also Luton Town FC's Academy coach (unless he has been hired as their academy team coach then good luck to him).

    FFS and arse biscuits.
  • Welcome back, I guess?

    You have an update on his contract?
    Otherwise I am just guess he is training with the team, coaching (needing to complete whatever blocks he has left on his A Licence) then (if nobody has picked him up) register him for the Northampton game simply to come on score a goal (greets them in the Jimmy Steed after do so) and then I guess he is there for work experience. 
  • No, I'm guessing we'll extend his contract as player/coach until the summer given we only made 2 signings.
  • Another big signing from our go-ahead owners.  Glad you're staying Danny!

  • Bring him home

    Doubt he will sign right now. Imagine he will stay on as a coach and train with the squad. That way if Chuks/Miles go down injured for a few months and Gassan isn't back then we still have the option of a short term contract. 

    Assuming he doesn't get a playing offer elsewhere in the meantime

    We have six forwards, so what we need another forward.

    As we didn’t sign a winger Jones may want Hylton for more depth. We’ll see, other free agents are also an option, as are promoting u21s.
  • Not sure Dixon will appreciate being omitted.

    That bloke that does the squad lists needs to pull his finger out.

    As soon as he posts we get someone in or someone will go out on loan.

    U21 player like Enslin and Laqeretabua

    We can all sleep easy, Danny boy is still in the fold it seems...🤦‍♂️

    What’s he done to be a first team player any more than the likes of Enslin and Laqeretabua? Casey and Mbick are regular goalscorers when fit and playing for the u21s too.

    I entirely agree but I didn’t stick him on the OS First Team Page.
