    They wanted 10,000 tickets?! But I thought they weren't interested in us because we're just a little League 1 club and they're in the big league, everybody's second team, and have a world class manager.

    No, they still can't use them. Can't dial very well with their hooves.

    I think you were optimistic, I wouldn't say I was negative saying he doesn't score, I just pointed out he doesn't score. Wasn't just you Marcus ,his game time was at decent clubs, his stats made me wary. Ross can't fancy him either if he couldn't get in when the other two were out.
    Happy New Year by the way.

    Surely they've all got mobiles now anyway, like everyone else.

    To be fair to the Newcastle U21s they gave us a better game than their 1st team has for a good few years.

    Kimpioka looks a hell of a prospect doesn't he? Quick, aggressive, quality touch, unpredictable. Took his goal bravely too. Every time I've seen him I've had the feeling he's going to be the real deal. I think he's even got a good shot from range on him.

    Looking at those highlights we stuffed them and I assume our defence did a good job because they only had one shot and it was from distance.

    He does indeed. A great prospect - really pleased for the lad.
    To be fair - they did go close with a few shots in the second half that are not in the highlights.

    We do have some real potential in our academy, and need to avoid the contract fiasco's in the future. I feel sure that the new brooms will oblige.
