No probs NG3 - I did wonder though given your knowledge...

[Sniffer Dog (Admin)]

Forest linked with Spurs u18 defender Max Statham.

He would be one for the under 23's next season.

No probs NG3 - I did wonder though given your knowledge...

I got myself in a mess, couldn't find the answer to a question I was asked on Facebook, so I left that window open & went to Twitter, where I found a DM asking about the Phelan Cup, thought I had the answer to that on this forum, so left the Twitter window open too, came back here, saw I had a question in the infrastructure thread & noticed the questions in this one, so managed to find myself typing answers to 4 conversations at the same time. Messy.

I've set myself up for a bit of a fall at the moment as I don't have the time to be doing as much as I am doing at the moment & answering a million posts on the internet too.

I missed the match today as I didn't have time so I was even foolish taking on the updates but I want to make this a thread packed full of detail & interest to encourage greater support of our academy & youth teams as I really do see it as the lifeblood of the club & so if there's no one else to do it then I'd rather over work myself than leave it undone.

To me it's important for the club that threads like this stay updated.

Fair play to you.

The updates are most welcome.

SA. :cool:

Thick end of a dozen players with first team experience sprinkled across the 2 starting elevens.

Some match this, 4-3 up now from 3-1 down.

[ThePromisedLand]

All 4 goals from non first teamers.
Next years matchday 18 to inc Worrall, Yates, Osborn, Cash, Appiah? Richardson, Johnson, En-Neyah knocking on the door?
And that excludes Dawson, Walker, Grant etc

Richardson a very promising young full back.

Has all the tools to play at a high level.

Big, strong, quick and can play 

Will challenge Darikwa next season

Now, that IS good news.

The Academy keeps on giving...

Some match this, 4-3 up now from 3-1 down.

A blatant audition in which I think Carvalho, Goncalves, & Ansarifard in particular failed.

It was a good job the U23's were there to bail them out.

Why did we spend big money on them if they're no better than our U23s?

Surely, they have to perform in games like this?!?
