None taken - and we have to pay £9 a game for it. Still, I wouldn't be anywhere else on a Saturday.
And I reckon if he'd had as many minutes on the pitch for you as Danny Graham, he'd have scored a few more goals - and what did he cost?
its comments like that , which make me not fear an Allam-less future for City.
It's doomed to failure, he was scouted on YouTube 
I think it's just a publicity stunt showing Sunderland he's not a technophobe old dinosaur.
Next time the whole Sunderland thing comes up, expect brucey to say "well I can send an email, I scouted that lad on YouTube"

Unless he's loaned back to his old club straight away or doesn't get out on loan to a lower/non league club in the not too distant future, I think it will very difficult for him to progress from the development squad to the first team. The gap is to great without experiencing proper first team games elsewhere that mean something first.
Looking at those clips i dont think loaning him back to them will help his development!! But i agree he needs to go out ASAP we dont want another Danny Emerton
Worth trying to get Ferriby to take him on? Or maybe even someone at Grimsby's level? I don't mind if he has one year in the development squad but anymore and his development will halt.
It would be good, but Ferriby probably have the best strike force in the division. Histon might have been a good option for remainder of the season rather than his existing club. I read that highly rated young centre half Ben Clappison has just gone out on his first loan down there. Highly likely to see plenty of game time.
Johan played his first game for your under 21 side tonight - and scored the equaliser in a 1-1 draw with Sunderland. So sounds like a promising start.
Hope you're not wearing him out too much - he's got to play for us in hopefully two play-off games next week.
BTW, he's scored for us in six out of our last eight games.

Interesting to note that a City junior is out on loan at Gainsborough Trinity and is scoring a lot of goals and gaining some very good experience. I would expect this new lad will follow suit next season. There is no doubt that loaning these lads out to clubs such as these to get them used to adult football is the way forward given the crap standard our reserves play in.

****ing hell, how could we let him escape us. He's going to make a hell of a player!
