Where does it say to replace Walton?

I think it probably means Walton will be with the first team more regularly as a sub or back-up.

Thanks for finding though.

Oh good - probably recommended by Jones then. Doesn't sound like a replacement for Walton though.

The title was meant to mean he would be taking over from Walton in the Development Squad as we are expecting Walton to be in the First Team squad this coming season.

With both Koosh and Brez going, it would seem highly likely that Walton will be stepping up to the first team squad next season.

Don't see him as a replacement for Walton. I've watched a few development squad games this season and Walton looks the real deal. His posture and game reminds me of Joe Hart. He still needs to improve on his kicking, but, already a great shot stopper.

Well he would be a replacement for Walton wouldn't he, as the first choice Dev Squad keeper and Walton moves up to the bench for the first team along side Casper.

Talking of young keepers..........how is big Jack Butland getting on? Could well be available for a season-long loan I would think. Would make an excellant replacement for Koosh.

Can't see him replacing Walton, he's probably being signed to back him up though and mean when needed Walton can travel / train with the senior squad

He says in the article that John Morling, the head of the BHA Academy, knows him from his time with the Irish FA. That's the link. Morling, although from London, was recruited by BHA from the Irish FA where he had been heavily involved with the setting up of the Irish youth system and was the manager, I believe, of their Under 16 national squad.

We have two other Irish lads who were first year scholars this past season (Dylan Barnett and Des Hutchinson), so I would imagine he was instrumental in bringing those over as well.
