And he’s just scored!
At 22 thought he might of got a look in in the Brighton squad by now . I'd have him back here in a heart beatAccording to some they wouldn’t have wanted him back though…
Just 'accidentally' tip a load of water on the towels. Job done.Gary McSheffreys comments today are great, Wigan brought there own towels for long throws and put six round the pitch so he sent a youth team player out to get one which the ref made them put back and then a fan took it and they called the safety officer to sort it out.

Westbrooke has gone on loan to Stevenage

He said on one of the podcasts, Coventry offered him a contact midway through the season but he wanted to “concentrate on getting promoted” and when we did the contract was taken away, my guess would be he was asking for championship type wagesWas a decent player for us in the promotion season, career gone right downhill since leaving us.

I thought he was at St Patricks Athletic in Ireland... Just checked and he joined Stourbridge in December.
What an absolute waster.
Knew him growing up in the Black Country and he’s always been an arrogant prick. There were a few of them around who were in academies at Blues, Walsall, Albion but most of them now play step 9/10 and work normal jobs. The only one from near me who is still at a decent leve is Reece Brown who’s at Huddersfield. I remember they took him out of school before year 11 and he started his scholarship at Blues.I thought he was at St Patricks Athletic in Ireland...

I think some of the clubs are making much more effort these days in relation to their duty of care over young players to make sure they're getting an education, certainly the top clubs are.I taught a guy who got picked up by Villa in Year 10, they made clear if he arsed around at school he was off the books so he kept his side of the bargain. Now playing in their U23s, not near the first team though.
Interesting what happens to people like that without the routine or structure in place
Yes lots of them will put them through their GCSE’s or atleast get them a BTEC alongside their scholarship. One lad who I went to school with was at Walsall until about 2 years ago. He got all U’s in his GCSE’s cus “he would never need them” and now he’s playing basically amateur football and a hod carrier (not that there’s anything wrong with that)I think some of the clubs are making much more effort these days in relation to their duty of care over young players to make sure they're getting an education, certainly the top clubs are.
Heard something on the radio a while back, Sol Campbell interviewing some lad he played with as a teenager. Campbell said he was the best player he’d played with growing up. Said he was head and shoulders above everyone else.I taught a guy who got picked up by Villa in Year 10, they made clear if he arsed around at school he was off the books so he kept his side of the bargain.

Certainly wasn't Stourbridge StackPathI talked to a number of clubs in England, but when this opportunity cropped up, I couldn't pass it up......wonder who the clubs in England were if he couldn't pass St. Patrick's up?!
Bremang made his debut for Barnsley last night
Looks like Bassala Sambou is about to sign for Crewe, what a fall from grace he's had.
They released Freiser which is a weird one, seemed like a half decent player to me. Especially when they are now bringing on the likes of Bremang.Bremang made his debut for Barnsley last night
