In truth, it will be very interesting to see what tune DA can get out of a fit Charles Vernam.


I for one, believe in Charles Vernam. Let's hope he can return to fitness and become the player he was threatening to become under Holloway instead of the half Vernam held back by defensive shackes of Paul Hurst. Don't judge him on his early season performances, I believe he was struggling with injury all along. I don't doubt his potential, but it's time he realised that potential.

If Vernam comes back fully fit, and at previous speed levels, it could be like having a new signing.

We have seen that he can run WITH the ball and likes to surge at defenders.

If that can be re-harnessed along side other players getting more confidence, then it could ease the current injury problems with Wilson and Pyke picking up frequent knocks.

Good luck to him, there is definitely a player in there that we need at 100%.

Vernam coming back is very exciting, especially with this expansive style of play.

Obviously his goal against Colchester is the one we all remember, but it's the one against Forest Green around that time that I think resonates with how Artell is setting us up.

Fluid, quick switch of play, one/two touches before giving and going....oh and an overlapping Anthony Glennon cutting inside for his winger to benefit.

Anyone know where Charles is with his recovery? Heard very little since the Telewag became utterly useless and nothing on the OS.

The last thing I read about him was he would be fully recovered by Christmas/New Year, but that was in Hursty's time.


You can please some of the forumites some of the time but not all the forumites all of the time

Can't remember where, but I'm sure I read/heard he's back in training. Going off his first few interviews, I don't think Artell is gonna be any less tight lipped than Hurst was on this kind of stuff.

Excited to think how DA could get the best out of Vernam.

I think Khouri will be a great addition to the squad when he returns too.

Think Artell made brief mention of it in his post match interview with JT but wouldn’t bet my house on that’s where I heard it.

Vernam is back doing gym work as I see him quite reguarly, not sure about him being on the grass etc. He's the only two footed winger we have and has the ability to go both ways. I know he's very marmite with our fans but he's got so much ability and can really get fans off there feet when he's on it with how direct he is. Really excited to get him back fit and playing in this system as I think he is similar to Hunt in that he needs that arm round him telling him how good he is and how good he can be, I expect him to flourish under DA.

I'm not sure we should be talking about the personal lives of players on this forum.
