The second year scholars definitely had problems with injuries this season, Apter out long term, Patterson had knee surgery in november, Think Sherif and Ebere have injuries again. Bates is the only one that stayed injury free. They actually play decent football at full strength if you look at...

I think Brighton got the Ferguson deal done pre brexit. The Northern Irish boys who have the right to dual nationality and British passports no matter their preference can come over at 16 while The lads south of the border with Irish Passports need work permits now so tend to need to be 18...

He had a long term injury this season as did Sheriff, Apter, Patterson who were 4 of the better first years any game I saw last year. Think the recent up turn in form for the 18s could be attributed to a few of them returning. Also a few loan returns above helping improve the 21 results but...

I think Apter Bates and Sherif are fit again. Patterson injured, he had knee surgery recently but due back january

I was at the 21s game at Newcastle. The performance was decent had the better chances tbh. Penalty was soft enough as in my eyes the lad Diallo was already going down before The keeper and bought it. Ryan Astley, Romain Dixon , Eli Campbell, Metcalfe , Patterson and McCallister were the stronger...

The U19 finals are in Belfast next year so Northern Ireland are automatically qualified. With this in mind I think Gareth McCauley the new Gaffer will be allowed to hang onto his strongest possible team in the build up to the tournament

Dylan Graham also still at the club

Ebere is injured definitely still there.

Anyone know if the forest green game is being streamed anywhere this evening ?

Patterson tore an ankle ligament in training early January apparently meaning he only played a few games towards end of season

Apologies he is back in the 18s squad once new scholars were added

The fact that they offer life changing signing on fees and wages at this 17/18 age group is probably what turns heads. pay your parents mortgage off etc. I notice they are updating the official site squad lists and Ishe is missing.

The first couple of games I watched him this season was for the 18s at left cb, looked an absolute rolls royce and reminded me of a young Rio Ferdinand stepping out with the ball breaking into midfield. Left footed cbs especially with composure and technical ability like his are few and far...

Drew 1-1 after trailing at half time

Held the same role at Derby under Lampard before joining here. May well of felt frustrated here alongside Brands
