    Gary Johnson is their manager. He's also managed Northampton, Yeovil, Peterborough and Latvia. Obviously.
    Recommended Marian Pahars to Southampton, apparently. Eye for talent on at least one occasion.

    I played in the same team as Gary back in the day, he's a lovely guy. . Never gets the credit for showing faith in Dion Dublin. Dion was struggling in Cambridge reserves, Gary took over the 1st team and gave Dion his debut at Peterborough where he got a hat trick. The rest is history.

    In contrast, his son Lee, manager of Bristol City is a complete twat.

    Ah, Dion Dublin. One of the last players to successfully play as a striker and a centre-half. Whatever happened to that?
    Did Gary Doherty kill it off?

    He was a striker for our juniors, but after joining West Scam he became a centre back

    Here's the squad pic for the U19 Turnier Stemwede

    With the aid of a WindyCOYS squad list and three tabs worth of Development/Academy squads I can identify...

    BACK ROW: Tariq Hinds, Oliver Skipp, (no idea), Brooklyn Lyons-Foster, (no idea), Reo Griffiths, Maxi Tainio, Tashan Oakley-Boothe
    MIDDLE ROW: Jamie Bowden, Paris Maghoma, Rodel Richards, Timothy Eyoma, Dilan Markanday, Jonathan Dinzeyi, Elliot Thorpe, Phoenix Patterson, Maxwell Statham, (no idea), (no idea), Armando Shashoua, George Marsh, Shilow Tracey
    FRONT ROW: Charlie Freeman, Jonathan De Bie, Joshua Oluwayemi

    According to WindyCOYS' tweet Samuel Shashoua, Dylan Duncan,. Jack Roles and Kazaiah Sterling are there, but for the life of me I can't see any of them

    VfB Stuttgart 0-3 Spurs (Samuel Shashoua x2, Roles)

    Over in the Stemwede tournament, having topped the group with four wins we ended up losing the semi-final to eventual winners Taurine FC Brazil, then lost the third-place play-off to Werder Bremen in spite our win over them in the group stage - although judging by Spurs Odyssey's coverage, much of that can be put down to the ref letting Werder play rugby instead of football

    Taurine FC Brazil 3-2 Spurs (semi-final) (Samuel Shashoua, Sterling)
    Austin, Dinzeyi (Griffiths 25), Hinds, Skipp, Marsh, Tanganga, Tracey, Duncan (A Shashoua 28), Sterling, Roles, S Shashoua

    Spurs 0-2 Werder Bremen (third place play-off)
    Austin, Statham (Dinzeyi 26), Hinds, Marsh (Duncan 32), Skipp, Tanganga, Markanday, A Shashoua, Griffiths (Roles 26), Sterling, S Shashoua

    On the plus side, Samuel Shashoua was awarded with the Player of the Tournament trophy, which fully justifies my habitual hyping him up at every opportunity.
