Ethel The Tree Posted February 12, 2019 Author Share Posted February 12, 2019 Just now, gurujuan said: Decent result that, can remember we bossed them at their place as well, even though they ended up getting a draw That's right, we had a strong looking side on the face of it But they came 4pts clear at the top and on an unbeaten run, whereas we're second bottom (!) Good that Winnall had 70+ minutes, not so good that van Aken had to come off Anyroad, I just like it when we beat L**ds - the occasion is secondary Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He looked superb in that first game against Leeds, and according to my mate, he’s been one of the star performers in the U18s Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Decisions are normally made early to give released youngsters a chance of getting fixed up elsewhere. It’s come to that stage of the season where game time will be given to some of the U18s, and we’ll start to see a few trialists from other clubs As an aside, the Leeds team today was a completely different eleven to the one we faced earlier in the season Seems they’ve had a big change around Edited February 12, 2019 by gurujuan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can see most getting released as we have 50 pros currently and a few of the U18s have already signed pro for next season.
