uttoxram75 Posted September 7, 2013 Share Posted September 7, 2013 Big piece on Ilkeston FC on the BBC website....... http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/football/23961516 No, Boycie, not a big piece from Ilson... Its too big to post on here. Alpha would be bored after 2 sentences! Lovely quote hidden away down near the end though....... Ilkeston have received a grant of nearly £56,000 from the European Commission to help set up a partnership with Spanish club Real Mallorca. The Robins will send 25 academy players to the Balearic island next summer for a two-week cultural experience. 25 academy players on a two week cultural experience in Majorca......yeah right.....what could possibly go wrong?

Alph Posted September 7, 2013 Share Posted September 7, 2013 "Just as Barcelona did when they plucked Lionel Messi from the working-class streets of the Argentine port city of Rosario, Ilkeston's academy is eager to recruit from abroad." Yeah, just like that. That was taken from near the bottom of the article. Waaaay after the second sentence Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

smiffy Posted September 9, 2013 Share Posted September 9, 2013 It was the people that run the Academy that took over the club when Ilkeston Town went into liquidation.I believe they have or have had associations with quite a few league clubs.
