    All you can do Brackenrigg, is to inform the club and see what happens.
    It's up to them to take it further, you would think though that we would have local scouts that should have picked him up?

    Bradford City did have Josh in the Academy before Guiseley. He just did not adapt to Academy Football.

    He could be the next Josh Windass.

    Wouldn't sniff at that myself.

    Yep, basically works out as one of those signings that stays on loan at their current club, only the situation is slightly different.

    Anyway, I don't know who he is, but it was a decent enough shout if he's gone to Wigan.

    As always, the player's current club isn't the limit of a player's abilities. Weird that a couple of people in this thread actively follow football and still think that.

    If he's good enough and has the right application someone will pick him up. If he's at Guiseley theres a reason for that.

    The fact that the lad plays for a club with an LS post code and that premier league club within that post code don't have him, may say more about the lad tbf

    If it's a REALLY bad injury, we've got an excellent and well-established camaraderie in our treatment room. Maybe he'd be right for us?

    If he's so good why is he still at Guiseley?

    Is this the lad that turned down Rangers & Sunderland to sign a 3 year deal with Wigan?

    He hasn't been able to sign yet as out of the window. Will be interesting what happens if he picks up a bad injury or will he suddenly be ill as season comes to a close

    What a stupid thing to say. How old was Vardy at Halifax and Fleetwood?

    How many footballers slip through the net like Vardy??

    Are you saying we should sign him and hope he comes good in 8 years time?

    No but I’m saying why are you writing off an 18 year old kid just because he plays for Guisley?
    He’s clearly got talent. The fact Bradford don’t have him says a lot about where our club is at the moment.

    He had a bad injury, and it says a lot when Rangers and Sunderland were in for him too

    He's not. He's a Wigan Athletic player.

    Does this change your opinion?

    Ian Wright was still playing on hackney marshes when he was about 23, some people just don't get picked up by clubs for a variety of reasons.
