"could" but how many actually step up each season and make a career out of it? Mensah, Partington and Matthews from the NL never made it with us and Ayunga from the NLS has spent most of the time since he was signed out injured. It seems a lot easier to sign a known quantity from a league club than take a gamble on a non-league player, Tutonda is a good example, he looked brilliant for a few games but now he'll struggle to dislodge Leahy for the LB role. Some of the ones to have made a successful transition from non-league over the years are Jamie Vardy, Chris Smalling, Nick Pope, Ben Foster, Charlie Austin, Dwight Gayle, Troy Deeney, Andre Gray, Ashley Barnes, Craig Dawson, Tyrone Mings, Jarrod Bowen, Solly March, Michail Antonio, Che Adams, Max Kilman, Joe Aribo, Yannick Bolasie, Harry Arter, Anthony Pilkington, Craig Noone, Lee Gregory, Joe Lolley, Aden Flint, Lyle Taylor, Kieffer Moore, Jamal Lowe, Albert Adomah, Jordan Hugill, Erhun Oztumer, Marcus Maddison, Sam Clucas, Ashley Williams and Lee Tomlin. Yeh....but Topper means apart from them 53!!

I forgot to mention Conor Washington, Joe Ward, Fejiri Okenabirhie, Sean McConville, Lee Novak, Ashley Hunter, Tom Hopper, Diallang Jaiyesimi, David Wheeler and Omar Bogle.

Hope our Darlo friend is not too disappointed, current 6-0 score line is a bit harsh as for 30 mins Rovers were poor and Darlo looked the more threatening, then Darlo shot themselves in the foot with the first and the Pen was a silly challenge, Darlo carry plenty of threat going forward and were quite creative, certainly deserve a goal. Good luck in you endeavours to climb back up the pyramid ,if that's what you want,
