It must have been an amazing experience for Shay Young to make his debut, 16 year old lad from Rugby in his first scholarship year.
Well done Shay!

Chima I would no doubt get in the u23’s. He’s tall, powerful, quick and had a good game.

Thought China would be good quality and was suprised Burnley let him go.Also been out of the game for 12 months should think he will be aching to play.

You were surprised they let him go? When did you see him play out of interest?

Most likely right. If I played the full 90 after a year out I would be aching as well.

About 18 months at a Burnley youth game and thought for a defender he stood out I think was against sheff utd.

With all the trialists on show the radio said about the tall winger who scored the second goal did anyone find out who it was?

That’s seriously impressive considering you were asking what position he plays last week

He’s had some terrible injuries, the club gave him a third year scholar but he was injured again during that. Hope he finds somewhere to play

Exactly how I saw it. Leamington number 7 was great today too. Number 40 centre backs (Chima?) looked decent physically but shit with the ball

Edit: was number 8. Looks like an ex Cov lad. In hindsight not sure why we let him go. Unreal passer and great set piece

Yeah Dan Lafferty apparently, had lots and lots of injuries and couldn’t put a run of games together. The club have a few prospects in that position, including a 17yo they’re taking on the tour, so it was probably right for club and player.

Can’t be a bad thing at all but he looked about 12. Grew into the second half with a good save and a good punch clear but first half had no command of any crosses
