he's done well, but didn't he flap for the crosses on the first two goals?

ssssh!

I see Ranger the Danger has made it in the list... http://www.guardian.co.uk/sport/blog/2008/nov/13/1 I wonder how many will actually make it though!

I was thinking about scott sinclair, however he was poached from bristol rovers. I think this is the case with 90% of their scholars.

I suppose it's more for scouting the youth, but still OTT, unless anyone knows that they have a collection of world beating youngsters?

It's believed that ~15 scouts have been asked to go... wtf are Chelsea going with ~22 scouts in the first place!!!

He's already on a contract so out of our reach. Not sure how good is though.

I saw this a while back and it explains the subject quite well: http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/7305998.stm

My cousin is at Coventry academy, he finds it tough, mainly because he does other things - study as well as sports. But there is a big emphasis on performance in games which I thought strange for the youngsters, rather than skills based approach. Does anyone know if it is like it at Saints or have we really gone dutch?

It would be very strange to see him at Saints as he has now been talked about on here!

A loss if Kelvin is off form A draw if he is on form

haha!

I'm in the original one, enjoying the scoreline care of Will.

oh dear, the worst one... stress fractures of the base of the Fifth Metatarsal sometimes show a poor healing capacity. Do you know if he has been under the knife or had a cast on his foot?

if it wasn't for gonig into administration, they would be in league one (I think).

which one?

There's more to it than playing games to gain experience. The young players are now responsible collectively for gaining points for survival. Normally, youngersters have gained exposure to the first team in one's and two's and have not been burdened by the additional pressure and could focus more on their performance and play like most do, without fear. Perhaps if the preparation of the team was better to handle the pressure then the performances would be better, it's all conjucture. What I struggle with is how will the team gain the wins and the confidence to stay in the league. Playing first team games as they are will not lead to this.

sternyyy!!!

...and struggle against the drop.

lack of investment

It is for me although I'm a bit closer in Switzerland.

BWP still doesn't count though!

As soon as the Sky money goes down, so does the hush money paid by the PL to the football league clubs. Maybe then there will be some revolt but to what extent? The big clubs will get stronger regardless, they are the ones with the large fan base and at the top of the food chain.

That depends on what assets he buys at what price, but you're right it is a bigger risk than what he's doing at the moment of playing some old timers with the youth team and a new management...oh!
