    Does anybody besides me watch the academy players on a saturday morning ? I have my own thoughts on both players and styles of play by both the 18's and 16s. We have to develop our own players as we cant afford to buy them. I think we are going the right way with both teams playing in the right way. Ball retention is the way forward !!!

    I agrre but he a CH so if he makes a mistake it will get punished at this level. At least with Digby he has a safety net behind him. Stones mite get a game when we defo safe. He a ball playing CH and not a long ball player

    I think Digby could turn out to b a CH evetually. He can read the game is gud in the air is well ovr 6 foot tall, can carry the ball into MF an is 2 footed. Am assumin u mean can Stones play RB Hemsey ? Yes e cud for me, ony problem is e nt lightin quik n if system means the FB's overlappin as in modern football not sure e wil b quik enuf. Wot the odds on Stones n Digdy bein Tarn CH's cum 2013 / 2014 season
