Sounds like a good prospect , should give him a deal.

Think that was a western movie, Winchester 73

 

Think Winchester 73 was a well known rifle during Wild West era, or at least in all the cowboy films

Looks like he scored vs Ayr Utd


CELTIC Under-19s routed their counterparts from Ayr United 6-0 in a friendly match at Lennoxtown on Saturday afternoon.

Bahrudin Atajic and Liam Gormley were both on target for the young Hoops, with trialists netting the other goals.

Trinidadian starlet will have to wait for Celtic decision
Shahdon Winchester has completed his trial at Celtic but hopes for a recall.

Shahdon Winchester has returned to Trinidad after completing a 17-day trial with Celtic. The W Connection striker says he has been told the Glasgow club may make contact again in January with a view to a permanent move.

The 18-year old, who has already been capped at full international level by Trinidad and Tobago coach Russell Latapy, trained with both the Under-19s and the first team at Lennoxtown. Playing with the youth team in bounce games he scored twice against a Motherwell XI and once in a 7-0 win over Ayr United.

"It was a memorable experience to see how the Celtic players carry about themselves, how they train, what they do before training and after training, and just their general approach,” he told the Trinidad Express. “I also had the chance to talk and train with players like Samaras.

"I trained the first three days with the Under-19 team and then spent the rest of the time with the first team, which is when I played in two matches and got the goals in the wins over Motherwell and Ayr.”

Winchester said he had been encouraged by the response of the club’s fans and that he had been told by Celtic that although a decision had not been reached on a transfer, they would keep an eye on his progress and may make a move in the next transfer window.

"All the fans wanted to know what was going on, whether I will be signing with the club, and, yes, they did bring up Trinidad and Tobago because they know about some of the players we have had in Scotland," he said.

"So far the feedback has been positive. The club president spoke to me before I left and he said they will continue to monitor me and will make a decision on whether they call me back in January."

Before travelling to Glasgow, the young forward had already scored twice in three matches for his club this season. He picked up valuable experience playing in the CONCACAF Champions League last year and has been capped at various international levels.

 

Really think this guy is worth the shot, could turn out a very good player.

Find it strange how all players seem to find Samaras as the biggest superstar of the team!

 

When we played all the friendlies in the States he would also be the player in the picture representing Celtic..but in Winchester's case he said it was great to play and talk with Samaras, and it wouldnt surprise me if Sammy was one of those nice blokes who tried to make things friendly for the young lad.
