Harrison, Harding and Lockyer all featured against Fleetwood; and Hunter, Santos and Macey have all been involved with the first team. The Youth Team have a match at the Mem. tomorrow (Monday) ko 2pm v Cheltenham Town. Always entertaining watching them. Drop by if you're free tomorrow afternoon.
great to see the young ones making the first team! atleast they will play there hearts out for the shirt.. They are the future! must be a better option than employing a bunch of free loaders? Passion is what the team has been lacking.. this can change with the introduction of young enthusiastic and passionate players... I hope that JW sticks with these young players for the rest of the season!
us fans loves the young players coming through because if they make a mistake we encourage them and get behind them. you can see they try and give 100%. all they want to do is play. it is ggreat to see them have a chance however.... would they have had a chance vs fleetwood if hammer, anyinsah, clarkson and kenneth were fit? i dont think so. i also doubt we would have won 3-0 if hammer, anyinsah, clarkson and kenneth played instead. what does that say? hearing from those who went at fleetwood, i would start the same 11 as they deserve to keep their place and the likes of anyinsah, hammer and clarkson fight to get their place back. great start from the youngsters and they need minutes to learn and gain experience. why hasnt hunter featured though? bangs them in at youth level but dont get a chance at 1st team?
No...but they do have an FA Cup Youth match away v Birmingham on Friday! (Haven't you been able to open the curtains CJS or you just bein' sarky!? )
Ward should consider playing the two wingers - Harrison and Broghammer some time. Probably when we're out of trouble!
They should keep their places - why change a winning team? The lads played good football on the ground and were pressing Fleetwood high up the park, not allowing them to settle. Exactly what we've been missing.
havent opened the curtains much but didnt think there been much rain to call the game off at the mem. compare the rain to games vs bradford that went ahead and rotherham recently that got postponed few hours before kick off. rain those times were bad nothing like the odd bit of rain here and there last few days. think as relying on youth as no signings, youth game today and friday and for some the 1st team game on saturday runs the risk of more injuries??

the game tomorrow vs birmingham has already been postponed due to frozen pitch - http://www.bristolrovers.co.uk/news/article/youth-game-called-off-604944.aspx
