Congrats to Simon Church

[winchester_royal]

Called up to the Welsh senior squad for the first time.

Looked more than handy against Burnley, bodes well for next season.

[readingbedding]

Been scoring lots for Wales U21.
Hopefully he'll kick on with us this season.

[Bill Oddie's Beard]

Hopefully he'll get a run out. Good luck to him.

[Gordons Cumming]

Maybe, in future, we can bow to the alter of the man named Church.

Not much to go on but we actually looked lively upfront in the 1st half against Burnley - as soon as he went off and Kitson came on it all went back to ponderous and obvious.

He has already shown that he is a good finisher but what impressed me was his speed of thought and movement. Very much looking forward to seeing him in action for us next season.

+1.

[rg6royal]

He may even start for them apparently.

[fireman_jules]

Thought he looked like a very intelligent player from what i saw against Burnley. Exciting prospect me thinks.

Agreed he looked lively in the first half but I'm convinced that Matejovsky coming off was the key reason behind that poor second half performance. I think we could contribute significantly though.

Unfortunately Marek gave away the goal with his pass. The triple substitution was terrible. It said to Burnley we were panicking. I think if we had kept the three players on (possibly the most creative players in the side) we could have got two goals back.

Anyway congrats to Churchy and looking forward to seeing him next season. Always been a big fan of him. Did pretty well for Orient too by all accounts...

[PEARCEY]

Hope he does well for Wales and of course the mighty RRR's next season

[higher]

Lad done good.
Is he in any way related to Charlotte(the welsh wind bag with the voice of an angel)?

[The 17 Bus]

Aren't all the Welsh related to each other??

[Thames]

Church is great

My thoughts exactly!!

[Wizard]

Congratulations to young Simon, hopefully we will get to see a lot more of him next season.

[Terminal Boardom]

His selection shows how far we have come. 10 years ago we could only dream of having so many full und under something internationals. Congratulations Simon. Do yourself proud.

[Joe 90]

With a name like Church at least we can be sure of some good crosses .............




I'll get me coat ...

[zummerset]

Looks like a great player - hope to see him a first team regular next season (and perhaps he should of been this season with benefit of hindsight - ah well)...
