Details? 1 day 1 month 1 year?

Telegraph reports a 1 year extension.

His brother did the same but that had the option of 2nd year... I suspect this could be the same

never seen the lad play but hopefully he's in the same mold as his brother regarding effort and tenacity and being able to play a bit too.

There are New pro's from the U18s coming through this season who play similar positions, all better players than him. Hasn't broke in to the first team in the last three seasons, don't see the logic of offering him a new deal! IMO

Would like to see MR selectively introduce him into the first team next season.....not as a first choice / full squad member, but as a backup squad player to be eased in as and when appropriate. We should have taken that approach with his brother and Harries too, but various managers/owners saw fit to treat 18 year olds as fully fledged squad members. I hope MR does not fall into this trap; in fairness, he hasn't so far and he didn't do so in his previous spell with us.

Maybe they thought it would make Dion more likely to sign up too.

Probably need numbers for the U23s. I think Devon is a good player and could play a part next season but as you say the likes of Finn is a more talented player.

Not sure if Finn has signed his contract yet, so this might explain the extension of DKE

This. Seen him play a few times-not much going on there reallly for me. Maybe he will improve.

You're like the Academy Grendel. Is there any kid at the club you rate?
Yeah-George Thomas, and a shout for Dion Kelly Evans but that's about it.

Hasn't actually been announced by the club has it? Aren't the quotes taken from Nuneaton paper

I remember when most fans (including myself) said that Callum Wilson would never be good enough

And how he proved you all wrong! Think you will be quite safe with Kelly Evans though.
