Jacob Ulrichsen

The contract secures him as a football player in England, writes Bradford City FC in a press release.

Jacob Wilhelm Thaulow Ulrichsen has previously played football at Charlottenlund SK in Trondheim before joining Bradford City.

The contract assures him a life as a football player in the club, with organized tuition in addition to the training.

Bradford City FC plays in League One, which is the third level in the series system in England.

 

That's an easy one Onside
If you lived in Bradford and knew anything about the car crash that is BCFC
Would you sign

 

I think my grandson is a good footballer, plays for Salts. Well it depends on what it would entail, but don’t you think that because your family live here are able to offer more support?

 

They are the youth team have some good lads this year

 

Families can offer support whether a son/grandson plays for Bradford or whoever lots of clubs within a 90 minute drive from Bradford
My point is that any golden prospects living in Bradford will know the state of our club and avoid

 

Maybe you are confusing them with the first team

 

He'll be shit like the rest. Only 16 so wont cost much for him to be in the develooment squad. Doesn't change anything about the actual team. Just another wasted project by edin

 

There's a bloke on the T&A City comments section that maintains that Rahic couldn't care less about where they are in the league or even which league they're playing in. He says Rahic is all about finding undiscovered talent and selling them at a profit. I used to think his theories were pretty off the wall, but signings like this one, considering the club's present league position, makes me think that he may have a point.

 

Pitch looks good

 

Don't really see the point.

Is he better than all available British 16 year olds? Because if he isn't, it seems strange considering we don't actually have a development squad, or apparently any idea how to develop players.

But, good luck to the lad, its a big move for such a young man!

 

Meh. Might get on the bench when we are in Division 4 next season.

 

No even arsed.

Good luck to him, probably drift off into obscurity though.

 

He's already there!

 

I think joining BCAFC could be described by some as drifting off into obscurity Skye

 

I know, amazing what is becoming of the club we hold so dear. The life is just been slowly sucked out of it, well, that’s how it feels.

 

You're right mate.

I'm all for having a strategy for developing young players but I don't get the feeling that we have a plan. it feels like we are plucking individual players from all over hoping to get lucky.

it would be bad enough if we had a solid first team but this tinkering around the edges of the club when our league one status is under severe threat is baffling. Every sinew should be straining to try to avoid the drop and not diverted by punts on 16 year olds that won't make any impact in the short to medium term no matter how good they turn out to be.

 

Can’t disagree with any of that.

 

Winner

 

To be fair, have the club even announced this signing? It's just a kid, no big deal, and isn't going to make any difference to our (in) ability to sign quality in January.

I hate the development squad crap, but some posts are needlessly negative. This signing can't reflect on any work done to sign senior players, I wouldn't have thought.

However if we fail to sign players in January.. .

 

He's 16, a nobody and we're in a relegation fight. Think
