From what I've seen and heard about him, that's a very smart signing.
Good age as well.
Welcome to the Abbey James.

Good news and welcome aboard James. Perhaps a little surprised by a 3 year deal but will keep the faith as they've not done too bad a job in recent times!

I imagine that Father Hackett was the deciding factor working quietly in the background by extolling the club virtues.

The left hand side of our team is going to be the most gorgeous in the league if nothing else.

Welcome to our new No 7 and Orient fans seem gutted on social media to have lost him which is a good sign. A transfer rumour that came true as well!

Most importantly, how's his size and build?

Pretty excited by this. Somebody posted stats showing he created the most chances from inside the box last season which is pretty good going...suggests he has a creative eye or two on him, and definitely suits the way we play(ed) of trying through balls rather than hitting crosses.
Six assists last season apparently, and a very tasty 75.9 pass completion which is more than decent for a creative type (Wes was the exact same).
Pretty rapid too apparently so that's another Bonner box ticked for this season.
Mostly played left back in a 4-3-3 last season, mostly. We're pretty well covered there so I'm thinking we've probably identified a more advanced position for him.

Was it a fraudulent slip at the end when he said "I know a couple of the contracted players, I mean players with contracts offered to in the form of Paul Mullin and Kyle Knoyle"?!
Welcome James to the club

Brophy and Jones would have played together at Swindon too I think.

Speaks pretty well.
Thought it was super cute when he said he was close to Josh and that he only had good things to say about us. Thanks Josh 🤗

Decent beard, but no 'sleeve' ....a little worrying.
