Title: One bright spark amongst all the gloom
Post by: Riversider on November 03, 2019, 05:43:01 PM
Our Under 18's are top of the league, put 5 past Norwich yesterday, and Jay Stansfield , the lad we signed from Exeter , scored another 4, think that may be 17 for the season,
I would imagine the vultures are already circulating above ,
Very important that we get promoted A.S.A.P to stand any chance whatsoever of holding on to Stansfield or any of our current crop of youngsters.

Spurs will be happy that their farm team continues to produce decent prospects

I was saying this the other day.  U18's have been great and hopefully for once we can keep some of them together and promote them up.

I imagine Exeter said the same at one stage as you have said and then maybe after Spurs buy him fans will say they need to win a cup/lge before Real Madrid sign him.

Its the way it all works.

We all understand that, it's the circle of life, but we need to devise a way that stops us giving away our top talent for next to nothing,
Which is why Premier League football is so important.

Looking at the scoreline it appears our Under 18's show a bit more attacking enterprise than the bore them to death tactics of our first team.
