Thought he deserved his own thread. It wouldn't be fair or sensible to talk about what he may or may not go onto achieve on the basis of a substitute appearance in the EFL Cup, but to make your senior debut and score before your sixteenth birthday is an achievement in its own right. On the night Cristiano Ronaldo scored his 100th international goal too; something to aspire to there, lad.

Incidentally they just spoke about Louis and Ronaldo in the same sentence on Sky Sports News; not bad going.

A question now. I know he broke Tony Ford's record for the youngest senior appearance for Town, but before last night who was the youngest ever goalscorer?

The achievement of the lads last night is not to be underestimated, they competed and over penalties beat a Harrogate team consisting of grown men, it was men against boys literally and the boys got the better off them.

Neil Woods and the rest of the academy staff deserve so much credit and they should be feeling very proud today as they have moulded these lads

Might be Tony Ford, but Paul Wilkinson came on and also scored a screamer against Charlton. He was only 17 ish.

Under 16 and to score is the stuff of legends, well done young man, I hope you continue your rise to the top and have an illustrious career, with Town and maybe one of the top clubs.

Crazy to think he’s probably sat in a double maths lesson right now! Hope he did his homework when he got in last night! Hats off to the lad, he’s clearly done enough to catch Ollie’s eye and rounded it off with some great footwork and a precision finish, well done Louis. Hopefully now he can get his head down, finish his education and grow as a young footballer at this club without any added pressure that might come from his exploits last night.


"Falls to Arnold... Arnold! That's it! Thats it! He's sealed it! Grimsby Town are back in the football league!!! Just a minute to go and Nathan Arnold makes it 3-1! Look at the scenes behind the goal! Look at the relief! The agony is finally over!!!"

Probably only on as a late sub as not got home from school, changed and travelled to the match in time to start.  Never mind doing his homework and drying the dishes.

Kevin Drinkell and Terry Donovan both scored in the same game when they were both 16.
