No, this is not a hoax, we've actually signed a striker!

Want to feel old? Well his dad played for Cheltenham when they beat us at Cardiff in the play off final.

Had two loan spells at lower levels and scored goals. Given a three year contract by Bristol Coty in April which bodes well.

Aye I don’t want to look too much into it but they’re very impressive figures for his age, no matter what the level was. When lads at 17/18 go to lower league clubs they very rarely score a lot of goals no matter who they are, by the looks of it he’s smashed it at both clubs.

A lot to like the look of and exactly the type of signing I was hoping for.

Towler was close to their first team, and look how good he is. Let’s hope Bell is of a similar standard.

Hurst does have a good record on recruitment.

I didn’t, but now I do, so thanks for that (great spot nonetheless).

Haven’t had chance to look much into this kid yet, but this bit from his description on the OS was encouraging:

Quoted Text
Bell made his debut for Bristol City in December 2020, making a late substitute appearance in the EFL Championship at home to Birmingham. To date, the young striker has made a total of seven appearances in all competitions for his parent club and has regularly been involved in the first team matchday squads.


On the outer fringes of a team currently playing 3 divisions above us. Incidentally of a very similar pedigree to Towler and Hunt in that respect, so if this kid is the striker equivalent of those two then this is a pretty exciting signing.


A smooth sea never made a skillful mariner.
