    Who knows what his motivation was. A lot of football is about being confident enough in yourself to relax and play without distraction. Schumacher invited my lad and another younger one to train with the 1st team a few weeks after he arrived. Had a good chat with them before as they were both shitting it. So next time they trained with them it was easier. Bit of a paradox really as I think the success of this 18s team is partially down to evatt hardly involving them at all with 1st team stuff, being left with jules and playing regularly together. At lots of other academies the best players were already with 1st team much more often than our lads over the last few years.

    As far as we know, Jules will likely be U18 coach again next season so will only be with the 1st yr pros when they drop down and play for 18s (can have 2 outfield). Personally I think 3 are physically ready for 1st team and the rest need more time to develop. There weren't many B team matches this year and quite a few of the 18s played in B team games. I think a few of the 18s will start with the 1st team in pre-season and depending on how they do with that, will determine what happens. Schumacher is miles more open with the academy boys. My lad has been there since age 5 and evatt never spoke to him once.

    Yes, it's been great watching them. Brilliant performance yesterday, Luton are no mugs, so to smash them 7-2 shows how good these lads are. Best performance of the season along with beating Blackburn away in the LFA Cup. Blackburn finished 7th in the u18 Premier League North, so gives you an idea of the standard of our squad. B team should be good next season.

    Not posted on here for a while, as my son is in the u18s. Just to let you know Jules has been absolutely brilliant with these lads for last few years. They're a talented bunch, but Jules has brought them all on. He's ultra positive ultra professional and they all think he's amazing and they'd all run through a brick wall for him. Proper legend.
  5. I've noticed you sussed out Rudy since I was last on. Was he escobarp too?
  6. its just the highlights - you can watch it now on itv x
  7. atmosphere any good?
  8. haha - I'm too young to remember that this one? https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/133329810149
  9. Just had a look at their squads from back then Joe Royle and Norman Hunter played for them, apart from that never heard of any of them.
  10. perferctly fine for us, they staggered letting people into the station so platform and train wasn't rammed, no bother at all. nothing like rush hour in central london.
  11. club wembley i bet
  12. it goes, 1,2,5 fuck knows what goes on in 3 and 4
  13. riff raff - I'll have you know that I was drinking camden town ale, eating a vegan hot dog with spring onions and salsa next to ronan darcy in tier 5 - whilst laughing at the piss heads
  14. nah, they were in first division back in the late 70s, I can remember them in one of my first panini sticker books.
  15. They've got a massive catchment area so not surprising really, top fact for ther day - Plymouth are the biggest city in England never to have a team in the top flight.
