September 28, 201510 yr A colleague's 15 year old lad has been offered trials with us, Blackburn and Blackpool. What sort of questions should he be asking the clubs? Is anyone ITK who can PM? Edited September 28, 201510 yr by Whites man
September 28, 201510 yr If he's a striker, then come to us. He should get a game in the firsts pretty soon.

September 28, 201510 yr Hang on Surely it's only right that Whites Man has to trawl through a dozen pages of posts about how shit the club is first? Sheltered maniacs need to pop along and post baseless nonsense about the mistreatment of the kids and how the pitches will injure them for life. Boooo
September 28, 201510 yr The downgrade in category has affected the fixtures we play from 15 plus, due to the gulf between the " bigger clubs" and the money they can spend on their younger players. Junior Marple had the yearly induction meeting last week and Neil Lennon spoke. He talked about the need to bring young players through with the lack of resources available. Thought he spoke very well. Blackburn are very good, my bosses lad is there and has just signed 2 year scholar (16), they still have a very good set up and are similar to us. I know nothing about Blackpool.
September 28, 201510 yr Is he currently at an academy ? If he is not at 15, then he will have to look like Messi to get in, its that hard. PM on way

September 28, 201510 yr He'll have to like sitting on a coach because, since the Academy was downgraded, our nearest away game is Crewe.
September 28, 201510 yr Author Emptied my in box. Jules perhaps one of your mates could do the same? Thanks all.
September 28, 201510 yr Bollocks to taking him to blackpool 3 times a week Get him on at hyde when he finishes school Edited September 28, 201510 yr by Horwich
September 28, 201510 yr iPhone wanker can't empty his inbox. Any road, without knowing the full story, I presume he is a u16? He should look to trial at all three in the obvious order. Obvious unless the player / parent knows how interested each club are. For instance if Blackpool scout / coach have mentioned a 2 year scholar compared to Bolton who are inviting him in with 5 others then go to Blackpool. The u16 year is the last 'free' year so clubs tend to open their doors for multiple players who are decent but not signed to a pro academy.
