Nottingham Forest Academy And Under 21's
WelL we are out of the Carabao Cup but Grimsby made the 2nd round today with Danny Preston making his senior debut. The lad only went and got an assist and scored in the penalty shootout, not bad going.
We are going to have a lot of choices at left back this time next year.

U23s drew 2-2 at Basford United. Virgil Gomis got both Forest’s goals.

Was just made aware that Derby were part of the UEFA Youth Cup last year. Anybody know how they managed to qualify for that?

Wasn’t there some chat in the summer about Wenger joining in some sort of capacity if we had gone up? Glass half full...maybe we are waiting to get promotion then bring him in to specify and oversee new development of facilities etc?

I'd be happy with that.

I admired Wenger's purity of vision.

Yes. Big mates with EM and a mutual respect. EM would like it but it wouldn't be easy.

How did Des Walker end up being an academy coach at Derby?!

His other son was in the youth set up there can be the only reason I suppose

I think he was only in an ambassadorial role at Forest, Meet and Greet sort of thing and Derby offered him the position

Probably just best to let Gary Brazil do it.

Considering his track record and the fact he worked for the Premier League when EPPP was being introduced.
