    * 8 of the 11 who started the game against Orient came through our Academy system

    * 4 of those 8 made their first team debut; Ryan Sessegnon, Tayo Edun, Dennis Adeniran and Luca de la Torre

    * Scotty Parker made his first professional debut for Charlton in 1997; Sessegnon, Edun, Adeniran and de la Torre weren't even born then

    * Ryan Sessegnon is officially the 2nd youngest player in Fulham FC history

    [Matt Briggs was the youngest, beating Ryan by 17 days. Tony Gale is now a close 4th – his debut was also against Leyton Orient (Anglo Scottish Cup 11th August 1976)]


    Footnote: Dennis Adeniran was booked last night when, after scoring our opening goal last night, he ran over and celebrated with his dad.. How sad is that?
