Leicesterboi Posted 19 July 2006 Posted 19 July 2006 First of all i have not posted for a while as i have had a brief stay in Australia with the missus! We bumped into a man who bragged the fatherhood of a son on chelseas books. He is called Darren Grant and his son is called Anthony. He seemed to be pretty certain that Leicester were amongst several championship clubs chasing his son's services on loan for next season. I have never heard of him before he is meant to be a midfielder or defender. If he's on Chelseas books then surely he will be good enough for us!?! I am told that Anthony is deciding his future over the weekend and if all goes well we could have it wrapped up early next week. Darren seemed pretty genuine so fingers crossed hey
The People's Hero Posted 19 July 2006 Posted 19 July 2006 Are you related to the SK8ER BOI who 'wasn't good enough for her'?
MC Prussian Posted 19 July 2006 Posted 19 July 2006 Are you related to the SK8ER BOI who 'wasn't good enough for her'? Well, Avril Lavigne just got married so off that one goes...
Leicesterboi Posted 19 July 2006 Author Posted 19 July 2006 Back to the point boys. what do you make of this potential signing?
Babylon Posted 19 July 2006 Posted 19 July 2006 Back to the point boys. what do you make of this potential signing? Anthony Grant Born 4/6/87 in Lambeth, London. With Chelsea since the age of nine, Anthony progressed through the age groups, earning the nickname ‘Judge’ along the way. He played many positions in the youth team before settling down at right-back but established himself in the reserve team as a holding midfielder. Such was his progress last season that he was awarded a professional contract in March 2005 and made his first team debut at Old Trafford as a sub two months later. This season saw Anthony become an England U19 international.

Ricey Posted 19 July 2006 Posted 19 July 2006 We don't need any more midfielders so I doubt this is true.

Thracian Posted 19 July 2006 Posted 19 July 2006 It's alright saying we hope he signs but two questions remain before I get any enthusiasm... a) Is he any good? b) Does he improve any of our weak positions? Otherwise what is the point in adding another pointless number to our squad list? We'll soon have so many holding midfield players we won't be able to let go. What I'd like (and I've not heard of Porter doing much wrong so far) is scoring/creative midfield players and another scoring/creative winger. Not nearly so easy.
placidcasual Posted 19 July 2006 Posted 19 July 2006 Judge? I don't like him. Probably comes from sitting on he bench all the time........

Stevosevic Posted 19 July 2006 Posted 19 July 2006 Probably comes from sitting on he bench all the time........ awesome
Fez of Mahrez Posted 20 July 2006 Posted 20 July 2006 We don't need any more midfielders so I doubt this is true. How do you work that one out?
