    This is the sickening thing for me. A club shouldn't be penalised for giving some youngsters a chance, whether historically or in the future.
    Cashin was one of the lucky ones who managed to get that chance  whilst others didn't. I would put all of Hutchinson, JBrown and Archie Brown in this group (perhaps a couple of others). The first two took up squad places due to having already played first team football, so had to be let go to allow us to sign a couple of experienced players. Archie couldn't play for the same reason as Cashin, so had to leave to chase first team football.
    All would have been useful backup players and filled in for the odd 20 minutes here or there.

    4231? It's unfortunate that the U21s have been without Bardell, Solomon and Rooney for much of the season. Anyone of them significantly improves the defence.

    Not really. We still have a number of players who could break through from most age groups.
    2019 - We still have Bardell, Solomon, Aghatise and Cybulski who will hope to break through
    2021 - I think this intake was very good, with only Eze (Norwich) and Ebiowei (Palace) leaving. Evans, Richards, Moloney, DRobinson, Sebagabo and Fapetu all have good chances.
    2022 - A few good players with decent chances. My picks at the moment would be Hawkins, DBrown and Wheeldon.

    19 yesr old forward from Waterford. He had a trial with Brentford in January and appears to have been available for free due to not being on a pro contract.

    I always thought one of his biggest strengths when playing for the youth sides was his range of passing (with both feet). Freekicks and corners bent in accurately with either foot too.

    The camera makes it look like he's clearly offside. However, for the winger to be offside, and based on Clarke's positioning, the offside line need to be as shown (or more favourable to us). This line doesn't appear to be too unrealistic to me.

    15 goals and 2 assists in 28 games for McGoldrick in all competitions now. It's already his joint 3rd best season in front of goal, just 2 goals off his career best. We still have at least 18 games to play this season. McGoldrick will be with us next season. 
    McGee and Roberts are out of contract in the summer, which strong suggestions of them staying with us.
