I know a lot less about football than Nicky but I definitely agree. At 17 he's still going to get a lot better and he's already looking very good in most areas.

Is it true he has been offered a contract at Gillingham?

Someone explain again (slowly) why we can't have these young lads on contract...

I don't know, but he came to my school Friday, because he is an ex-student there, and he went to see a P.E teacher who is retiring, he claims that Simpson has an offer from Gillingham... Just what I've heard

So, how can they offer him a contract, but not US?  ? |

I try not to fall into the old cliché of 'hating' Gillingham, but I can't say I'm looking at them too positively at the moment...

Why would you hate them for offering an opportunity we can't?

A 4th div side with no ambition (and even less chance of ever achieving one), or staying at one of the country's most progressive non-league sides, destined to go places? Apart from anything else, we'd be a much better shop window for his talents.
If he was being offered a chance at a Championship or PL club, OK, but Gillingham?

Yes, that's what I said, by the time he's 23 I reckon we'll be around league 2 anyway. The league Gillingham will be in at this rate.
How much first team action will he get at Gills? 17 year old right back, he won't get every game like he's getting here that's for sure.

I think the rumours over Gillingham and Simpson are quite old, having heard them 6 months ago, although that doesn't mean that fresh ones aren't circulating!
