    Lewie Coyle has signed a contract extension, so another talented young 'un tied down for at least the next two years to allow him to develop in our colours ... it's great that we aren't losing young talent, and it gives the club a chance to advance another one or two to the Senior squad, which is invaluable

    One who I hope progresses this season and potentially gets a loan deal to a lower division club is Jake Skelton, a big CB with a sweet left foot ... saw him make a pin-point 40-yard cross field pass at Anfield against Liverpool U18s to switch play and set up a dangerous attack, pure quality

    My one concern is Chris Dawson, a natural talent but he hasn't progressed physically in the way Mowatt and Cook has ... Dawson's injury last season hampered his progress, so a loan move to toughen him up should be the answer, if he's fully fit of course ... Taylor used his loan moves to gain experience and build his body from scrawny kid to flying left-sided player

    I worry about Dawson too. I really hope something happens for him soon. I don't think he's going to alter much in stature, given his age, so hopefully he'll break though in pre-season, or get a good long loan out.
