Powles came on in the Checkatrade too.

Heard great things about young Buckley.....what a story that would be!

I see Emile Powles (local lad) starting for the reserves. Understand he is 16.

Thats a positive, although I would rather see Clifton play in his natural midfield position i wonder if Sladeisace is trying to turn him into a full back??


Emil's just turned 17 - cracking lad, been with the club since Under 9s. Certainly think he's got a future.

I took in the youth game at the weekend, really enjoyable. Far more enjoyable than the first team offerings.

Two full backs were very composed and offered good outlets to switch the play. Buckley is the one everyone is hoping on because he has this lovely ability to float past players effortlessly. Technically he looks one hell of a prospect, if he's going to make it though he will need to be more physical. He's not a small lad either.

One who stood out for me was the lad Walker up front. Quick, strong, good control and hell of a work-rate. Although we scored two late goals without him on the pitch, we were lacking a bit going forward when he went off.

Great to see some positive comments it would be nice to think if we MUST participate in the Checkawhat Trophy we use it to blood our youth players with first teamers.

I don't know who played up front in the FA Youth Cup game but they looked out of their depth even at this level.

As I have mentioned before I thought the no.10 had a good game and also the right back.

The striker who started had a bad night but the lad who replaced him at half time was very lively without the final pass/finish
