If we had, there would have been a binfest over how signing non-league 'ones for the future' shows a lack of ambition,
and indicates how tinpot/cheeseparing TB/Barber/Whomever has to go.
Face it, if he had been signed by BHA, even for the DS, there'd have been a rousing chorus of "Why are we signing a striker from Burgess Hill? We're tinpot. No ambition. " etc, etc. on here.
"One for the future" is only used on NSC for an insult and to make jokes.
