Bodin's Youngster's

[leefer]

Westall was making good progress untill his bad injury....good to see him getting his game back.

[axs]

Chav!

do chav's have accountants?

actually I don't have one.

Malpas continues to infuriate me!!!! When the 1st team did some light training saturday, the youth team were playing as training finished, a few pros went over to watch for for a bit, yet Malpas walked straight past the game and didnt watch 1 minute of the game then he drove home! and Malpas has never said 1 word to Sam Morris, never even acknowledged him ever! this is a pro footballer training under him!!

1. Mark Scott
2. Elliot?
3. Jack?
4. Andy Westall
5. Will Evans
6. Kurt Hammonds I think
7. Lloyd Macklin
8. No idea!
9. Jamie Taylor
10. Jake Hyde
11. Billy Bodin

12. Matty Barnes
14. Mark?
16. ?!
the sub keeper ?!

i didnt go but looking at your team sheet, Jack Winter, Kurt definately played, Danny Wallington would have played, Mark Hartman, Elliott Knight & sub keeper is Callum Antell

[DiV]

that makes a bit more sense. I thought I heard one or two calling number 8 'dan'

Is Mark the asian kiddy?

[JPC82]

Mark Hartman is half Filipino

[DiV]

that'll be him then.

he scored but the official site credited it to Jake Hyde who only scored the one.

[DiV]

Also, any idea how old they are?

I know its a bit much but when I watch football I like to know a few things about who im watching. A few of them looked pretty good but then over the years alot of players have and then still ended up in the non league.

Im still not convinced Billy Bodin is older than 12 though...

[Arriba]

i know elliot knight left school in the summer same as bodin.knight was the lad chelsea wanted around 3 years ago but no fee was agreed

[JPC82]

Mark Scott - 2nd Year
Jack Winter - 2nd Year
Elliott Knight - 1st Year
Andy Westall - 2nd Year (had his contract extended at youth level due to his serious shoulder injury)
Will Evans - 1st Year
Kurt Hammonds - 2nd Year
Lloyd Macklin - 2nd
Danny Wallington - 2nd Year
Jamie Taylor - 2nd Year
Jake Hyde - 1st year pro
Billy Boding - 1st year

Dan im pretty sure it was Tom Evans starting not Will Evans, cos Will started the Swansea Ressie game the night before, Tom & Jake started cos they cant get a game in the reserves

[DiV]

I'm probably wrong then. I thought Tom Evans was a few years older and thus too old but I knew it was one of the Evans's

Is the youth thing 3 years now or 2 years?

[JPC82]

Is the youth thing 3 years now or 2 years?

the youth scheme is 2 years, but because the New Zealand game was only a friendly we could field over age players, which is why Tom & Jake played, they are both 1st year pro's so a year older than the current 2nd year youths

[DiV]

Ah right, see I'd like to take interest in things like this but alot of the information isnt that available.

I'd love to see some more youth players come through the ranks. Pook is the only one recently and I still dont think hes that good.

Chris Allen is technically very good but I dont think he'll ever get the chance here.

I know we made a big deal about signing 9 youth players on pro contracts last year but how many of them will feature in the first team ever? How many of them have? Im not talking the odd game in the JPT but in the league.

Joyce and Morrison look good but both came from Plymouth didnt they?

[JPC82]

yeah Joyce Morrison & Tozer all came from Plymouth, only the 3 lads Plymouth lads played in the league, the thoughts of the youth team is if u arent from Plymouth u have no chance!! Dave gives special treatment to those 3 he brought in.
the 9 who got pro's wasnt to do with being good enough for the 1st team it was cos we had a scouts down due to the youth cup runs and if they wanted to sign one we would get more money for them, sensible thing to do really.
