FFS. He’s ginger AND has a beard. Cancel his contract immediately!

His wiki says left-back, but I remembered him more as a winger, maybe wing-back. It certainly seemed like he played higher up.

He can anywhere on the left-hand side: defence, wing-back, winger, front 3.

I'm disappointed we've signed someone without a criminal record Tbh

I liked this from an Orient fan on Twitter. Sounds like the perfect Luke Hannant replacement..
‘Great player at this level. Only downsides - loves a dive (will win you a lot of scummy penalties that will infuriate your opponents)’

Sounds like we’ve signed another Jack Iredale. Happy with that.

Big investment by the club with his 3 year deal we all trust Bonz and Ben. Looking forward to seeing plenty of Barnstorming runs in front of the Habbin when we`re attacking the NRE !
Welcome to the Mighty U`s James......and belated welcome to Lloyd too !

My Orient mate is full of praise for this lad and gutted he's moved on. More so than Johnson in fact.

I saw him at Orient quite a few times pre-pandemic. Solid player at League 2 level and I hope he'll be able to make the step up a league and contribute. Seems like a long contract but I didn't see him at all this season so perhaps he'd been a stand-out performer for them

Thought I’d bump this thread to get a few views on Brophy now we’ve all seen in him action. Been a mixed bag for me. He looks calm on the ball and can run with it but end product been lacking. Is he a forward? Is he a left midfielder? Don’t think he’s a defender that’s for sure. If he is a replacement for Hannant then the jury’s out as what Luke lacked in skill he made up in endeavour and playing for the shirt. From speaking to people at games recently seems a bit marmite. Some think he’s done well, others poor. Given Williams took some stick early on am interested in the general consensus.
