I'm more interested to know why his dad being the major influencer decided GY over other clubs.

Mattie is like one of the GY boys, you can see how much passion he has for the club when we score and celebrated in front of the fans (last season).

As we already have more loans then can play each week if Pollock had been bought and loaned back is he under the same rules or would they be different with his circumstances.

Possibly the same reason we’ve got Jock Curran (although Terry played for us)

I think the work Woods does needs a lot more recognition.

Did he play for Sheff Utd as a Terry Curran is mentioned in "When Saturday Comes" film starring Sean Bean.

Let's think about this pragmatically.

Mattie needs just one good, healthy three-year contract with a Premier League club to set him up for life. That weekly wage will be much higher if he's got 100+ league games under his belt — by which time he'll still only be 19 or 20 if he continues at this rate.

If he goes to a Premier League club now, his wages won't be much more than he's on now. They'll be more, don't get me wrong, but not enough to set him up for life.

If he doesn't make it at that level, or fails to break through, he'll become just another of the hundreds of players who live year to year on League 1 and League 2 contracts, which might earn them a decent whack in the short term but not the millions you get in the Prem.

Naturally I'm biased, and I think we all know he has the potential to play higher. The longer he stays here, the more he shines, the likelier he'll be equipped to actually play in the Prem, which will earn him a better wage.

Move now and he'll end up playing U23 football for the next few years.


‘’If he goes to a premier league club now his wages won’t be much more than he’s on now’.  Depends on the club but at least five times as a minimum.  We don’t have the cash to give him a big pay rise but we could give him a three year deal on what we can afford and agree that he gets 20% of any transfer fee minus agents fee.

Yep sounds like a  plan GY. If he goes to a Prem League club he will probably be stuck in the U23's  & then out on loan to clubs like us to gain actual playing time experience.

He turned 19 last month and according to the website transfermarkt has only played 34 games.  Bennett will have been about 19.5 when we loaned him go Peterborough having played about 120 games.

Jolley thrust Pollock into first team action at 17 and he played a blinder at Exeter. Fans were clamouring for him to play but he only really started playing regularly once Holloway got his hands on him.
