Holt has always played football like a dodgy pub bouncer. Probably an inferiority complex issue as he's the only player uglier than Crouch.

Great to see young Henry making a solid debut today.

We'll need to hold onto him and the other youth keeper Johnns as Vigs will NOT be returning back here.

With Kassim and Ajose already gone, and probably Brophy too, it's going to be time for Major Rebuild to make another appearance in the summer.

Still, if Calne Council are successfully sued for not providing suitable pitches for us to train on at Beversbrook while the country was suffering from widespread floods, we'll have a few extra quid to spend on new players.

I will take exception to this - I love Crouch. He's a top bloke, and I reckon he's like one of those dogs you get that are so ugly they become adorable.

Holt looks and acts like a dog's arse.

What do you think of Ben Wah Balls? That's the erstwhile TEFer with a Crouch fetish...nothing else  Smiley

Yeah I like crouch too. You can only play the hand you are dealt with, and he's done a good job to be fair.

I can't decide - Did Boo get red carded for 1) getting fouled, 2) getting trodden on, or 3) getting dragged back up to his feet?

Hilariously bad decision  Roll Eyes

He's only 17, I'm wondering if we've ever fielded a younger keeper?  

Sometimes kids can come in with a no fear attitude, but goalkeeping is a tough old gig....so well done to the lad, but it would be unfair to put too much expectation onto such young shoulders.

Steve Mildenhall was 17 years and 94 days.

Jimmy Allen was 17 years 298 days.

Will Henry was 17 years 298 days.

Some brilliant saves by Henry there in that game, looks a very promising young keeper that bodes well for the future.

Definately our youngest penalty saving keeper though.

As for BOO.....I don't see what he did wrong, Holt should have been sent off for this stamp though and pulling BOO's shirt/hair and provoking violence.

Where have you seen/heard that Vigs won't be returning & Brophy will be getting released?

I remember him being asked what he would be if he weren't a professional footballer,
his answer....a virgin

Fair play to him

Interesting posts on youngest keepers.

Add Shay Given who made his first FL appearance with us at 19, and the common theme is the incredible longevity of the careers of these young debutants.  Let's wish Will Henry the same (though without Mildenhall's bollocks surgery, naturally).

But for every Shay Given there's a Craig Farr, Matt Bulman, Leigh Bedwell etc...

Not an easy position to grind out a long pro career.
