Not sure if this is a complete whoosh but an hour ago I got a tweet sayin Gils had signed a player called Ben Allen. It looks like an official GFC tweet but there's no link to the Gills site and I can't find a player called Ben Allen. Am I going barmy ? Don't answer that !

Was mentioned on sky sports that we have signed him from Phoenix sports on a 2 year deal.
 
He’s 17 and signed from Phoenix Sports. Scored a free kick against us in the Kent Senior Cup. Has signed a two year deal and looks like has played a few games with the youth team this summer. Would think he’s unlikely to feature for the first team this season unless he really is a special talent.
 
Apparently he played a few games for our youth team back in March scoring a few goals. Presumably a forward ? Presumably they think he's a bit special or he'd only have got a one year contract.
 
In a PhoenIx sports photo I saw he is wearing the number 9 shirt. Hopefully he will do well .Be interesting to see where Lovell sees Ben going this season .On loan ,first team or youth development player.
 
Hang on, he's not that mate of Macron's who got to dress up as a riot policeman and crack heads for the jollies, is he? Wouldn't want that sort in the dressing room.
 
Gone to Lordswood, not clear whether it's on loan or a permanent deal. Would guess on loan seeing as they mention he's on a 2-year contract at the Gills.
