If he's on the bench a new chant "Bring out the Branson"  would be very apt... Or maybe not !!! 🤐

We have to sing this next season!!

Sounds like he was converted from centre back at some point, natural leader, assume he'd slot straight into the starting XI alongside Moulty in our 4231.

Interesting that his day job is business development for a performance analytics company - been a very big part of Alty's revival of course.

Something tells me he's going to be a big player for us.

The three brand new arrivals look to be absolute quality. Can see two going straight into the starting 11.

Branson and Moult side by side as a midfield two will be incredibly solid. Both like to play deep, though, so I wonder whether Jake may be encouraged to push further on as he used to do earlier in his Alty career under Sinnott. He hasn't always been the holding midfielder we see now. Interesting and exciting times.

Would have thought it would be the other way round to be honest - Branson scored 12 goals last season.

He's a converted centre back and in his interview he mentions his style is to sit deep. I believe the majority of those goals were from set pieces.

EDIT: Now we need to make sure we get it in the box!
