James McQuilkin Midfielder signs
Posted: 21 Nov 2014, 17:31
Hi Guys
Have done what I can to give you a heads up on this guy.
Has signed today on non contract terms. Was a product of West Brom academy. spent some time in Czech Republic. moved to Hereford and then Walsall.
He started his career at West Broms academy. But was released and went abroad to Join Czech Republic side Zlin. he was there for 2 seasons playing 41 games in all scoring 11 goals. He returned to these shores to join Hereford United and made an impression signing for the next 4 years. he played 76 games for them scoring 6 goals before being released I assume because of their recent troubles etc. He was sent out on loan to Kiddy for 3 games but returned before being released to join Walsall where he only played 9 games. He did manage to gain one Northern Ireland u21 cap when he was with Zlin.
I talked to my mate in Walsall who said he didn't get much in the way of chances there as they have a surfeit of Midfield players and wasn't seen for most of the season. It was some time ago and he can't remember what he was like. The Walsall Manager obviously liked what he saw to sign him in the first place, but eventually he left to join Hednesford Town in the Conference North for a spell.
Now with our own Dean Edwards having been manager there with Steve Elliot at his no2 I would imagine that he retains contacts there and this is where Chris has picked up on him.
It's been quite difficult to find any hard information on him while he was at Hednesford. But they are a pretty well supported team who play in front of crowds one would not normally expect of the club at this level. The season before last they topped the table of Best attendance with a crowd of 4412 when they played FC United of Manchester in the playoff final to reach the Conference North.
Not only due to Manchester fans coming down. They have had attendances over 2500 on several occasions. So with money to spend they can pick up who they choose to a degree.
