    He was born in Knoxville, Tennessee's gateway to the Smokies. Home of University of Tennessee, also known as the Vols. download.jpeg download.jpeg

    Holds over 100k but he left when he was 2, not sure if he'll be a Vol.

    Maybe. But more often than not recent signings have signed deals that will "see them at the club for at least the next 1 / 2 seasons" We don't have that in this case. If we only offered a year to have him prove himself wouldn't we have an option on him and therefore get the "at least" line at his announcement? Just surmising..

    Many Blackburn fans were unimpressed by another right back, Paul Caddis. I thought he was decent enough for us.

    He may have something about him but I get the impression that any player who is eligible for Wales and England will have Wales trying to call them up as soon as possible in the hope that they're tied down to Wales should they become world class. I'm just saying call ups for the Wales team may not be as impressive as they sound on paper, but it's obviously still an achievement for any player to receive a call up.

    Caddis still had a very good playing career prior to joining us and I don't think anyone was at all surprised that he did well for us. All Henley has is failure after failure and an alarming lack of football to boot.

    As long as he's here as a reserve and not a replacement for Mellor then I'd be satisfied. Got to be better than Joe Riley.

    Yep well spotted, and also @Tennesseebantam@Tennesseebantam. Apparently Knoxville, but lived in UK from age of 2.

    With all these 1 year contracts and the majority of the current squad's contracts up next year as well. This time next year could be very busy.

    Like Ismail who some thought could be the first 100 m player when he was coming through Henley’s career seems to have hit the buffers possible through injury Bowyer obviously thinks he is the man to motivate them

    What I (personally) like about our recruitment, thus far - Is the fact they all have time to 'hit their peak' - Here's hoping that this comes in their stay at BCAFC. :) Most have lot's of game time - so not novices ......... But perhaps a few skeletons in the wardrobe, they want and need to shed.
    More importantly ........ Will the 'blend' of our squad be right ? We'll know by August, I'm sure ! ;)

    Nothing wrong with extending deals, in January ..... Little commitment either way, until then ;)
