April 3, 20251 yr Noticed this thread started in 2014, so went back to look at the U18 team that day. Jaaskelainen, Spooner, Garratt, Honeyball, Phillips, Nolan, Palmer (Griffiths), Abbotts, Elumba (White), Thomas (Kennedy), Mells How many of them are still playing? Will Jaaskelainen is in non-league. Is Phillips Jimmy's son (now at Derby apparently). Any others? Shows how big the jump is to mens football! Anyway, well done to our current crop!

April 3, 20251 yr Elumba left us, to Chorley. Had a time out, joined Lancaster & now out for 3 seasons.
April 3, 20251 yr Tempus fugit. Julian Darby is the last Academy graduate to score10 or more league goals in a season. I think he scored 2 at Swansea. I was sitting in the stand near his family who were big supporters. Oh this old bloke ran up the steps to his seat at the start of the second half. I think it was Tommy Banks.

Clough came close with 9 in half a season in L1 As did Nolan over a full as PL season Not bad given neither are strikers

Posted something on a thread a few days ago about the academy/ B team They've done exceptionally well this season. Odd we sign Etete and these kids don't get a look in. Would love to see some get the chance ... even as back up. If anything ... can't be much worse than the shite displays we've seen from some of our 1st team.

I can understand the point of view and Etete clearly isn't the answer, but there's a huge difference between U18s football and senior football Lewis has only just made his debut for the B Team so let's allow him and others the time to develop their game first
April 24, 20251 yr I got the chance to talk to lattrell about 6-12 months back Hes never been near a pro club before and even playing 11 a side was new to him From north london and couldnt say enough good things about santos
