A few years ago, I was teaching in Essex, and one of the kids I taught had just been taken on by Ipswich 'academy'. At the time he was 11. Was just wondering if he ever made anything of himself with you, or whether he was one of those that didn't quite make it. Now here is the bugger. I can only remember his first name. I know that narrows it down a bit (not). His name was Charlie and he came from Wickford. If I can remember his surname, then I will post it. Anyone of you who keeps an eye on this kind of thing, I would be interested to know if he did make it. The year would have been 2007
Charlie Sheringham was with us 2004-5 and would have been in his late teens then.Cant think of many other Charlies who have played for us,although some would argue previous incumbents at Portman Road often fielded a bunch of right Charlies!(Yes Keane I mean you)
