How many strikers do we need?

Isn't the thread about Foreign players? At our level its done with loanees rather than the Democratic Republic of Congo left back. The loanees we get are often British, so we are aiding their development, instead of them sitting in the Premier League clubs reserves. But we don't develo0p or progres...

Aren't we just as guilty of this too ?? Ok, we arent / havent been down the cheap foreign route but we - particularly the last 2 or so years have seemed much more willing to give the young player of a Premier League / Championship club an instant opportunity in our 1st team than one of our own, equ...

Actually its down to the top managers not risking the academy players in "competitive" football. At most top clubs they can sign some unknown international from Slovenia or Ghana and shove him straight in the team and no one seems to moan if they take a few games to get up to speed. Shove ...

It wouldn't make any difference if clubs had artificial pitches in the winter months as games would still get called off due to health and safety issues. It's no good having a perfect pitch if the football league deem the ground and surrounding areas unsafe for fans travelling to and from the groun...

http://www.daggers.co.uk/news/article/football-league-artificial-pitch-press-release-2292179.aspx So the FL have rejected artificial pitches. How short sighted is that? The modern pitches are brilliant, a million miles from those that were at Luton and QPR and a couple of other grounds. The one at ...

Personally I'd have brought on saah put him in doe's position, stick doe at right back and move abu in to a five man midfield and took off jamie leaving alex up front on his own. That might have stopped that el whatisface running the show. But there you go hindsight is a wonderful thing :D Saah? If...

Dunno about green fella. Celtic have the Green Brigade and they support the IRA. Do you support the IRA? You seem the sort. I didn't do 15 years in the SAS to let little scroats like you ruin my club. Don't insult me Woodford. I'm not talking Celtic green, more darker green. If anyone has got any i...

Alex Jakubiak: aged 18: When signed on loan, 3 league starts and 7 sub appearances - 1 goal... straight in to our team Ayo Obilaye: aged 20. When signed on loan, no league experience... straight in to our team Daniel Carr: aged 20. When signed on loan, 4 league starts and 6 sub appearances - 2 goals...

the abuse he has taken. What abuse? A few people getting a bit annoyed about travelling up to Southport on a Tuesday night to see his team play like a Sunday morning side? Seriously? As Jodi Jones' godfather says, he is supposed to be a man that gives youth a go... which is true as long as you aren...

With the possibility of Orient,Crawley and Colchester dropping into Lg 2 next season that will be another 2 possibly 3 sell outs for us.Southend Pompey and Luton if they don't go up that'll be a few quid too.I might have to start a campaign to let away fans use the TBS. :D Crawley? Seriously?? They...

That is the day that Morecambe forgot their away kit, so we played in ours!

its all good wrote:Agreed most are others team's youngsters up to now
But there are plenty of managers who don't give kids a chance
Hopefully one or two will come through from our Academy before too long

I see Jodi wasn't in the squad at York. Hopefully he'll get a shot soon.

Do you really think that if we finish around where we are now the Club will really dump him. Do you really think that after achieving targets that have been set they will dump him. Sadly you are probably right. However if the club's ambition is really to do nothing in the cups and finish bottom hal...
