In a strange move, assuming what The News reports is correct, <b><font color='#0E4FB0'>George Colson</font></b> has been deemed 'surplus to requirements' at Fratton but is 'attracting premier league interest!'
So, a soon to be league two club believe that Colson is not good enough for that level but a topflight club, possibly Stoke, see his potential.
It does not make a lot of sense really?
That said, even if his reported trial works out, there are going on 'potential ability' I guess and have the funds in place to see if this develops.
Facts of the matter these days are that we are now in a position where not 'many risks' can be taken and trying to wait that 'year or so' for potential to be realised is a luxury we can ill afford, we need them to be deemed ready to jump in right away.
Best of luck to Colson, and <b><font color='#0E4FB0'>Dan Thompson</font></b> who is also being released, but that selfish part of me does hope we are not proven wrong here...
