GNE registered 2 more young players this week - Goalkeeper Connor Rabbett (or is it Babbett as the league state) and midfielder Paul Ennis. Ennis (pictured) is interesting as he was playing for Stockport County in League One at the end of last season so quite what he is doing signing for North End is anyones guess. Pauls 1st game was planned to be last weeks Vase game but he didn't turn up!
His biog from the County website gives;
Stockport-born Paul, known as Charlie, was given a contract in the summer of 2008 after initially being released. However, as County recieved a windfall due to making Wembley that season & Jim Gannon being impressed as his determination to revive his career by continuing to use the facilities at the club's Manor Farm training ground, Paul was rewarded with his professional contract.
A Cheadle Hulme lad, he has represented Stockport Boys and Greater Manchester Boys.
Bit more on Paul. The reason he didn't show is that he has been given a month long trial with Rotherham, so whilst he could have called, I think it's fair enough he missed our Vase game!
ReplyDeleteWhat a poor excuse, has he not seen our facilities?
ReplyDeleteI do like the fact that GNE are now competing with league clubs for players signatures.
