is this for real??

Jonathan David Brown (born 17 April, 1990 in Bridgend) is a Welsh footballer and Wales under-21 international, currently playing for A-League side Central Coast Mariners.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Central Coast Mariners
Having spent time on trial at the club, in December 2009 he joined Australian A-League side Central Coast Mariners on a contract until the end of the 200910 season, with the option of a possible two-year deal.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
FORMER Cardiff City striker Jonathan Brown has signed for Australian national league side Central Coast Mariners.

The Wales Under-21 international, from Bridgend, has signed a deal until the end of the season with a potential two-year contract at the end of the term.

I was invited for a two-week trial over here with North Queensland, Perth Glory and the Mariners and everything went very well, said Brown, 19.

The Mariners were the first to offer a contract and package to me and I was keen to do the deal and settle things there and then.

The club have been fantastic to me ever since I landed in the country and looked after me very well indeed.

The lifestyle is just amazing and the football is of a very high standard with all eyes on the countrys World Cup hopes.

The manager wants me to be an out-and-out winger as he sees this is my best position and Im glad that I can express myself in that role and look forward to being part of the first-team action.

Wonder when he's available for selection.

My guess would be when the transfer window opens in January, as is the case for Angulo at Melbourne, and for Griffiths and Salley up at Cavill Ave.

Heh

I submit "Brownie V2.0" for nick name.

 

[Marinerchick]

[MARSHP1]

Excellent, thanks. Think he'll be good for us and may be a suprise packet for the run in to the finals. No-one is going to know much about him and he has pace.

Crowell is a Taffy.  So we've got two of em.

Foster can f**k off and i expect we are going to see alot more lower league players come out from UK as they are higher standard than many junior propsects and less risk than some of the more exotic options.
