After just 10 matches on loan at Forest Green Rovers Jack Aitchison has earned himself a nickname.
It’s hardly original but with three goals in his last three matches to take his side to the top of League Two ‘the wee man’ is making a big impact.
On Saturday Aitchison opened the scoring away to Cheltenham, making his way into the penalty box he exchanged passes then tucked away a shot from 10 yards out.
IN THE PICTURE…
It’s 3? in 3? for the wee man!

League Two football in England is a long way from the Academy set-up but Aitchison seems to be thriving in the most physical of environments.
Moving far from home at the age of 19 is a big commitment to make but Aitchison has already made a lot of sacrifices to push his football ambitions.
Scoring with his first touch as a Celtic player soon after his 16th birthday was a great landmark but it also increased expectations in the most demanding of positions.
Slightly out of the spotlight Aitchison’s career is accelerating again with the wee man already a favourite in the town of Nailsworth, Gloucestershire.
