Saints Academy Thread

On the Saints OS site the Under 18's only have one striker, the rest are coming from the Youth squad or have been upgraded to the B Team.

The OS has caught up.

 

Aw they took him off on '81. Could have got a double hat-trick.

 

Can he start tomorrow?

 

Bench against Newport ?

 

He’s earnt that at least.

 

Any noticeable admissions could mean involvement on Wednesday... Watts, anyone else?

 

Just Watts from what I can tell

 

If Kami Doyle doesn’t appear from the bench he might make the bench tomorrow.

 

Can't see it. Ralph treats the cups seriously and I think only 7 subs as well. Also the game is on Wednesday.

 

Oh so it is!

 

B Team 0 - 0 HT UPDATE 0 - 0 FT.

Doyle got a bit of playing time last year with the U23s at, I believe, 15 years of age.

After doing some really involved Google scouting that borders on stalking, I can say that he's from Bath, so possibly another product of the Saints Southwest Community Development and Talent Poaching pipeline?

 

Under 18's apparently played a friendly at Bournemouth and lost 0 -2.

Cherry (SN) in the group.

 

Under 18's were 1 up at half time v West Ham. Currently 3 - 1 up 80 minutes gone.

 

Under 18's 3 -1 ft Ballard. Dibling. Hewlett.

 

3 wins in 3 for the under 18s! Brilliant start to the season for them.
