The Next Big Thing


Some interesting news doing the rounds on various internet sites from a brief article in a recent edition of the Liverpool Echo mentioning Michael Branch. At one point in the mid-90s, Michael Branch was being spoken about in very hushed tones as the next big thing. Unfortunately for Michael, he wasn't, but Everton did find the genuine article some years later as Wayne Rooney emerged from our academy scheme. Branch never cracked it at Goodison, did OK for a while at Wolves but fell down through the football pyramid ending up at Halifax Town. Now though, he's off to try and kick-start his career in Australia, trying out at Queensland Roar.

In amongst the various web notes, I came across this link on a site called 'Up The Posh'.
