Comrade 86 Posted March 10, 2023 Share Posted March 10, 2023 I see we lost 3-0 to the dirties but I suppose it's not the worst result possible. It's been a tough old year or two for the young uns and it'll be interesting to see what the long-term effects are; it'll make men of some of them, I guess, but I can see it having the opposite effect on a few too. It's a sad irony that the thing that Morris seemed to treasure most, the academy and the promise thereof, has been the longest-term victim of his idiocy. I've come to realise that I'm not too fussed about what league we're in, but one of the compelling reasons for making it back to the Championship would be the re-build of the youth teams and the ability to hang onto those showing promise a little longer than of late. Must have been a bitter pill for the coaches who had us punching way above our weight prior to the Mad Mel.

Ghost of Clough Posted March 10, 2023 Share Posted March 10, 2023 It's great to see the U18s improvement since the New Year. I put it down to 2 main factors. 1, Dejaune Brown returning from injury. 8 goals and 1 assist in his 8 games so far. Record without Brown: W1 D2 L5 Record with Brown: W3 D4 L1 2. I mentioned it before, but Buxton becoming U18 manager has probably been a bigger factor. Before Buxton: W0 D1 L4 Since Buxton: W4 D5 L2 48 hours, Comrade 86, Dordogne-Ram and 7 others 7 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quite an exciting young talent, this lad. I've just remembered we're not allowed to big up the young 'uns, so I'll just quietly hope the progress is maintained ?

I’ll take this as a response to my earlier post about a players development and there being no guarantees. Brown is indeed a great talent and is showing great potential at u18 and some promise at u21. That’s still a million miles away from being a first team regular. You can big up the young uns as much as you want but don’t forget that you have when you then criticise them when their form dips. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It relates to a fair while back when a few of us were enthusing over young Festy and more latterly, Ebiowei and were taken to task for it. It's nothing to do with Brown or the current crop or anything I've seen you post. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree that players should be encouraged and we have some outstanding ones currently in the u18s and u21s. IMO some like Brown have the potential to go beyond the players currently in the first team but I worry that they get built up and knocked down way too easily as young players and hopefully as the academy rebuilds they get the opportunity to develop away from spotlights and criticism until they are ready for it.

Ghost of Clough Posted March 14, 2023 Share Posted March 14, 2023 I assume Cybulski is considered a part of the first team, hence not being in the squad. Kelly, Hawkins, Ibrahim and Oseni all missing too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep, straight red. Didn't see what happened. Bit of needle crept in second half after a stri g of Brlper challenges not penalised by the ref. No idea about Cybulski, he was there watching, as were most of the under 21s not playing. Too cold to post from the game!
