Academy Report 11/10/08

whats your opinion of the other 5 and who are they

 

Difficult to know what Adam is asked to do before a game? I think he has really good ability but always tries to do too much when he has the ball. He rarely plays an early pass or a simple pass and misses the runs that other boys are making. He is strong enough on the ball at academy level to hold others off but at a higher level, who knows? However, I think the out of position reference in the original report was not aimed at him but Branson starting boys in different positions every week.

 

I assume that is a rhetorical question

 

one should never assume as we all know what happens when we do

 

I am trying very hard not to use the "N" word in my reports but I can't say that I'm not tempted on occasion.

 

Agreed

 

Fair comments. Opinions differ and it is good to read another view of the game. I gave it Crapper for reasons stated. He has an amazing pair of lungs, but you are right that he was not involved in the key moments of the game. It is the same argument about Heskey for England and Odejayi for Barnsley. They all help to make the team function as a whole unit.

 

Tom Mellor had a really good game on Saturday, but does not consistently impress. He could go either way and needs a good 6 months.
Martin Grundy is improving but I think that he will probably miss out.
Danny Free always impresses me and can rarely be faulted for goals. Nevertheless, we are very strong in his position at the moment (goalie) so he may miss out.
Danny Warburton rarely gets a game
Jack Watts rarely gets a game.

 

Do you mean who will get a contract.

It is far too early to comment on the year one lads. See earlier in this thread for the year 2 lads.

Another week another inaccurate report from red rain.Hibbert or western at no8 quite important considering he scored the second goal.Then had the audacity to say they did not print any team sheets off come on this from a man who goes week in week out to academy games and knows everything about the place.Last but not least i had to laugh at mark stokes paper quoting young REDS RAIN in goals that surely cant be you on page 17 with empty seats around him IS THAT REALLY YOU.

 

can the club not print team sheet on web site and also subs used same as first team seems stange according to red rain 2 second years are not getting a game cant be right or is this just another red rain lets make it up as we go along statement

 

cheers mark

you could just use your old user name if you like tho.

 

Its probably a make it up as we go along statement.Anyway i think he should report for england ,can just see it now gareth barry makes a glaring mistake for first goal then nearly at fault for another in englands poor 6 1 win and and my man of match today is gareth barry .Yes i have convinced myself red rain for england NOT.

cheers again mark. dont give up the day job.

 

I dont want to sound like I am being picky but

why dont you just **** off back to where you came from , numpty. Your other magazines must be missing you.

 

According to academy players profiles we have 5 strikers 1 centre half 1 right winger 1 left winger 2 right backs 1defender 3 centre midfielder 2 keepers
thats some strange mix no wonder players are getting played all over the place with a certain exception of course

 

Well did the lad get signed?

 

Cheers mate.

We are playing well now. The boys are back in town!


YOU REDS!
