How we getting?

We can use Ethan as a great example to all young players who are at the academy on how they should conduct themselves to aim for a career in the professional side of the game. All the reports I’ve seen have highlighted his approach and commitment to whichever team he has played for. No doubt Huddersfield will say the same once he’s up and running there. I wish him every success and will keep an eye out for him as he starts the next chapter of his career.

Good luck, Ethan. Well deserved.

Loved his appearance in the pre-season friendly at the G Tech (against Lille / Lyon?). I know it was only a friendly, but he didn’t look out of place at all. Arrived at Brentford with a season of men’s league football under his belt.

Hope he does well, and will keep an eye out for his progress.

Could be the Martin Drury connection that helped facilitate this transfer.

Yes good luck.

Excellent player according to an Exeter City fan I know.

But now so very difficult to make it to our first team for our B teamers.

Would be interesting to know whether in his view, joining us helped him or staying at Rochdale may have been better.

Yes, I was also thinking the same about Ethan Laidlaw (Hibs) and Tony Yogane (Sheffield Wednesday).

In Briers' case, I'd say it helped him. He made a handful of appearances in L1, made something of a breakthrough in L2 and then got out when they were relegated to the Conference. They're now back in L2, and he's in L1, so the B team "sign here and, if you're good enough, transfer out to a level higher from whence you came" thing has worked out for him.

Better wages as well.

Trained with Premier League players which helped improve him

I was thinking exactly this the other day.

I understand some bemoaning the lack of b team players coming into the first, but as we say with Tony Yogane, playing for the B team combines the outside possibility of promoting to the first but doesn’t diminish any attraction from league 1 + Champ sides. So that combo I’d say still makes it an attractive proposition
