Ethon Archer's story so far
Moderators: Admin, Ralph, asl, Robin
It's pretty obvious he won't be with us long. He's been a pro footballer for 4 months and already looks like he could cut it in League One. IF there is already interest from Championship clubs, it's just a matter of time, unless his form disappears.
Archer is a great prospect but he's still very raw, whilst I expect him to be sold on let's not pretend he's of similar value as Eisa who scored a ton of goals and which we benefited from a family tie to sell for the price we wanted. I, myself, can see him going to Peterbrough for a lowish six figure fee in January and maybe loaned back to us for the season.

If "bigger " clubs make millions we will get a good percentage. Some people get better jobs and move on. Football clubs do well to get compensation for what is an everyday change of employment. Does not happen in a lot of sports.

No chance of that . I don't think he will go in January to be loaned back.

I'd be very surprised if he goes in January. He's only been pro for four months! I can definitely see him going to L1 in the summer though.
He didn't sign from QPR. He was released at the end of his contract, so a free agent. He made no first team appearances for them.
His only experience of first team football was with Torquay in National League South last season.
