Thought he was outstanding once again today, won’t be long until the scouts come flocking if he continues as he has done this pre season. That’s 30 minutes in the league against Jayden stockley, 90 minutes last week against John marquis and again today against Ivan Toney and mo eisa. Barely put a foot wrong and looks so comfortable it’s frightening. MJ told me at a mariners trust evening that he was the one young player that he had the biggest hopes for and this last week I’ve seen why. Without wanting to put too much pressure on the lad, I think hes going to be one hell of a player.

It was quite funny watching grown men getting grumpy with him because he’s so physical (Eisa kicked out at him in the first half). The lads not old enough to vote yet and he’s imposing although I bet he doesn’t struggle getting served for pints!

I'm already looking forward to reading nonsense posts in 2028 about how Peterborough bought out his sell on clause for 27p

He should never leave Town with a name like that  


When Leeds trainer Les Cocker was once told Norman Hunter had broken a leg, he asked: “Whose is it?”

Stevenage got 1.5 Mil for Ben Wilmott who made 10 appearances for their first team a few years ago, Pollock is similar age now to Wilmott was when we first played for Stevenage, if Pollock progresses as much as he could then that 1.5 Million should atleast what we should be looking for dependant on what clubs are interested.

What’s with this ‘Mattie’ ‘ie’ nonsense?
Isn’t he Matthew/Matty?


That's how he spells it

There were some very well timed tackles, blocks and no nonsense clearances. Loved watching him steam back on a recovery run to slide tackle their wing back in the first half and perform another  ankle high header in the second. As Michael Caine might say, 'He is only .....seventeen.... years .....old!'

You have to say, his performances are very encouraging considering his age. I'd say he's a bit more of an 'old fashioned' centre half than, e.g. Bennett, but he's done a good job so far. He certainly looks capable of being a very good player in the bottom two divisions, perhaps the Championship as well in due course, though I don't think he'll have the pace for the top level.

Let's hope he plays plenty for us this season - though perhaps not too much, given his youth. Don't want him to burn out though he seems physically capable of the job at the moment.

I wonder why then, around the Crystal Palace FA cup game when practically all of our centre backs were either suspended or injured, he played players out of positions for games at an end, unstead of starting the centre back Pollock. I have issues with his managerial decisions, the board should and has not been wiped clean. He's under pressure immediately IMO after the end of last season. X's away by all means, but I have a memory and the squad is largely unchanged.
