That's way too much pressure for one man, Gastric... I mean, what can I do? The youth leagues in England are winding down so there's less to report on - after all, I do live in Canada... all my info is gleaned from the web and puffed out with some wildly positive speculation... I'm just blagging it really. Although there were a few goals to take note of today... see other threadsQuote:

Watford defender Tommie Hoban has today completed a season-long loan move to Aberdeen.
The 24-year-old will spend the 2018/19 campaign with the Scottish Premiership outfit, who are also competing in the Europa League this season, although the Hornets do hold the option on a possible recall in January 2019.
Homegrown centre-half Hoban, a former Republic of Ireland youth international, has made 58 Watford outings in total and has previously spent time on loan with Blackburn Rovers and Wealdstone.
Wonder if he'll play against Burnley?

Have to admit, I'm pretty relieved - when I saw the thread had been bumped, my first reaction was "has he been injured again??"
That's actually very positive to see the recall option in there. Watford know the lad is class and might prove far too good for the SPL, I suspect. Particularly if he get games under his belt. You'd imagine he'd be cruising come January there.
Well I'm not happy. Was hoping to watch him when Warlord play Brentford on Saturday.
The ‘ Warlords ' would be an interesting name for a football club .Quote:

So far so good for Hoban at Aberdeen as he gets their goal in a 1-1 draw against Daryl Hogan's Hibernian: https://www.bbc.com/sport/football/45189005
I see Tommie had shoulder surgery last month and is out until January. The poor guy is like glass

In light of these comments and recent events, he's really one you'd wish it all could be going so differently for: https://www.the42.ie/tommie-hoban-in...82262-Feb2019/
Played as a trialist for Aberdeen yesterday against Hibs, could be announced as a signing before the end of the week, and the start of the new season in Scotland at the weekend

Tommie Hoban then made an appearance for the Dons as a trialist. Tommie, who has been training at Cormack Park, went into the squad today to act as cover as there are a number of defenders including Michael Devlin on the injured list. The central defender cme through his run out in fine style.
I read an article on Hoban and his trial that said he was close to signing a short term deal with Aberdeen prior to lockdown so it is good to hear that he has picked up where he left off. Hopefully he can get a bit of luck now. He only turned 26 in January but he has only 75 league games played having made his debut 9 years ago.
