August 24, 201510 yr Playing at the Macron tonight vs Birmingham, 7pm. Free for season ticket holders. The things I end up doing when Colls aren't at home on a Monday...

August 27, 201510 yr Ties in nicely with the northern soul event at the Printworks. (where is the Academy stadium...next to City's ground ? )
August 27, 201510 yr Yes it's after the flat dicks . Me, the Mrs and the young en are in for our game, weather permitting.
August 30, 201510 yr Author What a mental set up this place is. Amazing what difference it makes when money is no object.

August 30, 201510 yr Author 1-0 up at half time. Very decent game so far. Woolery and Thomas look lovely up front, Tom Walker is playing with a lot more drive than usual and Hayden White is occasionally threatening to look like a footballer.
August 30, 201510 yr We've won it - well done lads! Let's get Thomas and/or Woolery on the bench for the next game.

August 30, 201510 yr Great win, why so mental, is it that impressive or summert For what is pretty much the flat dicks and reserves pitch they have a stadium of 8k capacity that most league 1 clubs would be lucky to have.
August 30, 201510 yr Well done young whites. Anyone who went could say how we played, did anyone stand out?
August 30, 201510 yr Ace.....£3 well spent. Played very well as a team, outplayed city in the 1st half & should have scored more, & even though it was more even in the 2nd half, they didn't look like equalising. Nobody played badly, but standouts for me were Taylor (given m-o-m at ground ) & Finney the centre halves,who both looked like adults playing against kids, Walker, who looked a much better all round player in a central midfield role, & put some lovely corners in, Woolery, whose pace scared them all night, though not always the greatest touch, & m-o-m for me, was Hayden White in a defensive midfield position & played very similarily to Muamba breaking up the opposition's play.

I'd agree with that, I thought white did well. I got in for nowt as my city mate (season ticket holder) gets in for free. Woolery kept destroying his man for pace but could do little with it. Our keeper did well with a bit of pressure towards the end but didn't have a great deal to do. Their keeper was a bit bobbins but again wasn't really tested.
August 30, 201510 yr Author Woolery would be worth chucking in for the odd 10 minute spell near the end of a game. His pace would scare defender shitless.
August 30, 201510 yr Woolery would be worth chucking in for the odd 10 minute spell near the end of a game. His pace would scare defender shitless. Aye, him or Heskey... I thought our corners were decent too. Seemed to beat the first man. Could teach the first team a thing or two!

Interesting to hear White played centre mid I said a few weeks back that this position might be the best option for him to stand a chance of making it he really could be a midfielder enforcer if his football ability is good enough, his physicality and athleticism certainly are.
