I’ve just looked at all the groups. Everyone else’s academy’s are either bottom or just off bottom. Our young lads are really doing very well aren’t they.

Ours is a strong group as well with all 3 of the teams we're in with likely to be in the mix for promotion to the championship at the end of the season.

It’s quite incredible as the step up is quite a jump. Fair play to them all and the coaches. It’s great to see.

That was a superb second half performance. Looked like they were going to be out muscled in the first 30 mins, then went on to dominate.

Archer is some finisher & Bogarde looks like he could play all day.

Cracking game. We got bullied for the first twenty mins or so and they pressed us into making mistakes. We seemed to gain confidence after the goal and kept trying to play football. Second half Caleb played deeper and improved, impressed by Bogarde, Lindley and Ealing (attacking wise) but head and shoulders above everyone was Archer. He’s strong, fast and scored three cracking goals.
Thoroughly enjoyable night.

Gotta say that's pretty impressive. Not only is it a fillip to the kids but it's also an extra few bob for a lower league team whose average attendance is 3k.

Caleb's certainly a big unit; and pretty neat footwork. How long till he'll be pushing for a first team squad slot?

The way it's going it'll be easier to get a ticket for Wembley than for Watford at home.

Just been readings Preece’s article about Ajani Burchall which prompted me to dig out his obligatory YT video.  Check out his bit of skill at 2.34.  We have another potential star on our hands!

Bogarde and Swinkels both started for Netherlands U18 tonight, the former captaining the side to a 4-2 win over Austria.

Declan Frith is a triallist no more. Put pen to paper on a pro contract today. Welcome aboard.

Hope Declan's a success as Ireland could do with a good winger.
