DEVS BRINGS IN STRIKER

19 year old Watford striker - joins Iron on loan

Braintree Town Manager Alan Devonshire has strengthened his forward line prior to Saturday's Skrill Premier Division trip to Woking. Joining the Iron squad on a short-term loan is nineteen year old Bernard Mensah from Championship side Watford. From the same stable that brought us Britt Assombalonga, Bernard scored 14 goals in 19 appearances for the Watford under-18 side during the 2012-13 season. He became a full professional at Vicarage Road last summer and made his Watford first team two months ago.

Devs has a great eye for loan strikers ( Britt & Charlie Strutton) so lets hope he has unearthed another gem.

Welcome to the IRON Bernard. IW how long is short term?

Initial 28 days, with a view thereafter

Great news, devs certainly doesn't usually get it wrong with loan deals. What do we know about Bernard's qualities?

Have a colleague in my office who supports Watford. He seems to think this lad is a real talent. Good work Dev's.

Nice one Dev. Just hope the weather improves so that he can play and we can take full advantage of his talent.

Hi Braintree fans, Watford fan here. Often look out for your results after having Britt on loan and currently having Chez Isaac at the club, who I thought was unlucky to be released by us.

I was just wondering if you could give me a bit of feedback on young Bernard throughout his loan spell? We've high hopes for him but he's only made one sub appearance for us so us fans are excited to see what he can do! Cheers, all the best for the rest of the season.
