What's the situation with Vaughan Covil? I see he captained the U21's today. Was he out for a long period injured? Looks like he played for USA U23's before Xmas, so presumably now back to match fit? Still only 20. Is he in his last year with us? Looked promising back in 2022!
He was pretty much out for a year after having surgery, I think he came back last September, then went off to play for USA U21’s.
Might be a typo on the website, but according to Transfermarkt, Andy Smith is eligible for the Malaysia national team, he's listed as having Malaysian and British citizenship. Wonder if he fancies a call up? Nice part of the world that.
Not just Connolly dropped to the U21's. Lewie too. Along with the long awaited returns of Ash, Stuart Green and Wayne Brown. Brandon getting half a game too. Interesting.
Lad we picked up from Sheffield United's academy I think. Probably gutted he left, he would have been in with a shout after the other night .
Callum Yam. Really promising keeper who hails from Whitley Bay. He's only 17 but a lot of youth coaches up here have high hopes for him.
