Jacob Howard is the name of the 14 year old. just got a text. Also the training is part of a youth up training policy the club have implemented. Means that there is core group of talented boys 14, 15, 16 who will continually rotate between the 16, 18 and 21's side to up skill and develop according the text I got.
bb, it was a excellent game to watch. Some players looked good as well. Crew went about the game in silent manner but had a foot in everything. Chadwick-Chaplin looks to get better and McFadden is a skilful player.
Our u18's beat derby 5 nil. Young HarryG got 2.
Luca Thomas looks some prospect. He has clearly modelled his game on Bamford.
Doing well 3-0 b derby
10,493 brave souls in attendance

Wonder if Archie will play to get some gametime.... 😲🤔😜
Sean McGurk has 2 goals in 4 games since he left us to play in League 2. Good start to life in the league and looks comfortable.
Loads of U21s out of contact this summer and loads of 16-18 year olds in or the U21s
Ones to watch ae Thomas, Cresswell, Gray and Crew
The younger bothers of course.
Monteiro may come through, and Sutcliffe, Coleman and Snowdon but if we are in the Prem?
Perkins is an engma. He should be in the first team squad but is not near. Not sure why?

Lost 0-2 to Chelsea U-21s and Allen has gone on loan to York. Contract up in the summer so needs to find another club.
