How crazy is that surely he must have shown some ability during his time with us!

I would assume if he had then we wouldn't have released him.

An initial fee of around £20m in a deal that could be worth £26.5m for Mings. Compare that with the Watford signing of Craig Dawson for £6m and you have to say what a bargain that is. Dawson, along with Aden Flint, is the best header of a ball that I've ever seen at the mem.

To be fair, I remember telling Tyrone that I thought he'd physically struggle with the step up from Yate to Chippenham. He went from being a boy to a man quite late, filled out, he had the attributes but not the physicality. Good on him though, first and foremost he's a lovely bloke.

Good luck to him, sometimes see him featured in the Wiltshire Times supporting local events.
He wanted to go to Villa last season, to be coached by John Terry.

He's is probably the best centre back I've seen at The Mem.

He was coached by Lindsay Parsons who joined Harold Jarman's management team to work with the Under-16s in the Southern East Counties and proved an influential force in developing the careers of former Rovers alumni Darren Peacock, Marcus Browning and Marcus Stewart. www.bristolpost.co.uk/sport/football/tony-pulis-lindsay-parsons-bristol-2760174
