Said this before but he was excelling at this level at 17 on loan when he was at Cambridge.
Not sure he'll make it with us but he's talented, takes their set pieces too. We saw in that summer tournament he's got talent on the ball. Keep banging 4 a game and you'll get clubs knocking

He’s actually within a couple of days the same age as Esse so he’s clearly nowhere near the level we are at

Certainly now with us going up. Never know when players can suddenly come on, but suspect he'll be a lower league player - which is still a success for him.

As I've said before Sinclair Armstrong was head and shoulders above anyone in this league. He looks distinctly average now for Bristol. The higher we climb,the bigger the gap for youngsters like Yearn. However , as mark82 eluded to , a lower league living from football is a win for him.

Yeah absolutely no shame having a career in league football. People don't understand how good players are even at conference level top 0.0001% in the country

He gave us one or two scares but he's pretty average. Ask and Bristol City fan. I wouldn't have him in front of Wright or Simms and going up I would question the credentials of those two.

In a friendly game I once played alongside a guy who was a part time pro with Bath City.
It was like playing with Bobby Moore and Franz Beckenbaur rolled into one.
If I'd ever needed any appreciation of how painfully average (at best) I was, I got it that day.

I swear pro footballers are like a different species, the worst professional player someone's ever seen would be the best player they've ever shared a pitch with.

A long time ago, during work 5 and 11 a side games, I played with two below conference level players. They both dominated every game.
The first had had trials with Chelsea as an attacking midfielder. His son played for England ten years later. He was about 40 and overweight. His control was phenomenal. You just couldn't get close to tackling him. Fortunately, he was so unfit that after ten minutes he was shagged and everyone else had a turn.
The second had played for Fisher Athletic. Also about 40 but very slight. He was a holding midfielder. Hardly moved all game but if you went past his event horizon he took the ball off you with just the smallest movement. And then played a killer pass.

Same as the Olympics I always say they should have the average person competing just so you can see how incredible the pro athletes are

I play walking footie with a couple of ex pros , they're both in their 50's and the way they receive a ball and pass is different gravy.

A few times I’ve played 5 a side and you get a few people on a neighbouring pitch who laugh at how shit we are…as though they wouldn’t get annihilated by Stratford Town.
I've played against the ex-Cov legend Callum Ball and he was unbelievable. I megged him though but he soon got the ball back. The turn of pace is just ridiculous.
Also played against Lee Tomlin, the summer he moved to Middlesborough for £3m.....He didn't get out of second gear and was just incredible. It makes you appreciate who good these players are.
Also played Leicester Legends and Gerry Taggart marked me and he was a wall. He didn't hold back on his tackling either.

I used to coach football with Callums older brother - he always said his brother's downfall was that he just wasn't that interested in making it...then was carrying a foot injury whilst with us.

I played 6 aside and a lad turned up for s team who had a player less, scored 11 as we lost 11-10. Turns out he was a Bradford youth player who then went to Scotland div 1, now plays in part time league. The fucker ripped us to shreds. I did tackle him though once and he praised me for it after the game (he wasn't sarcastic about it haha)
Also played against a Cambridge United youth player who fell out of the game at 18. He was mid 30s at the time and it was like playing prime ibrahimovic
