Emerton always had good reports in last season Friendlys, Always gets a good mention for the reserves too
Ive only really know about Emerton but thats more relying on other peoples opinions If my boss sticks to his word Sonny Bradley will have a sponsor next season. The young players dad is a client of my firm and weve always said if he makes it we will sponsor the lad
I went to school with Danny Emerton and I reckon he could make it. Not seen any of the others but no that Sonny Bradley went with him to Sweden.
Interesting. PM me your name, I may know you. I also know Emo, though admittedly not that well (we're hardly close mates).
i try to follow te reserves as much as i can, as some on here may know. But to be honest i have no idea which other of the kids' contracts would have been at the crossroads. I know Billy Ward and Joe Fox have already gone, but does anyone know if any others have been released? I wonder abouy the likes of steve gardener, or has he already gone. Incidentally for what its worth i think Connor Townend will soon be knocking on the door. Also, a little younger i think but watch out for Francis McAffrey in the future.
The names Bradley & Emerton have popped up a couple of times - great if we develop our own players. I believe Sonny Bradley is a budding CB & Emerton a midfielder.. it's useful having the Man U link with Joyce however seeing home-grown lads making it into the first team squad is sweet.. Good luck to them all..
All four of them are decent players, I'm not surprised that they've got deals. Mussie, I think most of the other lads have been released, I know Joe Cooper's gone.
Played against Danny a fair few times competitively, was always head and shoulders above anyone else I've seen.
they cant have got rid of every one. Surely its just those of a certain age group. I have just lost track of who those are. Next seasons reserves will tell the story
I only meant those who were first team pro's, which as far as I know included: Steve Gardner____ DF_____ 12/05/1990 Mark Oxley_______ GK_____ 02/06/1990 Danny Emerton___ MF_____ 27/09/1991 Daniel Wilkinson__ DF_____ 02/10/1991 Gavan Holohan___ MF_____ 15/12/1991 Dean Deagle_____ DF_____ 26/12/1991 Danny East______ MF_____ 26/12/1991 Joe Fox_________ MF_____ 01/01/1992 Sonny Bradley____ DF_____ 14/06/1992 I believe Holohan was offered a deal a while back, the same may well be true of Oxley, though I'm really only guessing.
Well Holohan's got a squad number, been on the bench once at least. So i presume hes on a pro contract.
I went to school with townsend and although I don't particularly like him he's a million times better than anyone I've ever played with/against. Well apart from maybe danny east
I went to school with Danny Wilkinson. He was a defender back then so you couldn't really tell he was that much better. Plus his dad was coach of the local team when the City scouts came around.
