Baxter was so close to giving us the lead there
Game ends 1-1,man utd missed sitter in injury time,that point has moved us to 4th,but the current 4th place team Blackburn are 0-0 at half time, and will also have game in hand after todays,could be 5 behind 4th place if they win today and game in handGoal for everton-
charles ball,great finish
1-1 on 67mins
Good result with under strength team against second placed Man Utd.Game ends 1-1,man utd missed sitter in injury time,that point has moved us to 4th,but the current 4th place team Blackburn are 0-0 at half time, and will also have game in hand after todays,could be 5 behind 4th place if they win today and game in hand
we do mate,we play Blackburn at home 11th feb,Blackburn did indeed win today,3-0 v west brom,and they are in 4th place 3 points above us with a game in hand,so that game in feb then is big provided we win our next u18s game at middlesbrough next sat,,,blackburns game in hand is against middlesbrough this tuesday afternoonGood result with under strength team against second placed Man Utd.
Think we still have home game to play against Blackburn so could still grab that 4th spot in the play offs.
Indeed. I think there were only 4 second year scholars in the outfield squad the rest were either 1st year or u16s / not scholars yet. A team of similar composition got thumped 5-1 at home at the start of the season by united. It's nice to think that 6 months training at the academy has helped them gel.Good result with under strength team against second placed Man Utd.

People will go on about City and Chelsea being the best academies. We have matched their league performances in recent years. We are lightyears ahead of them in players being brought through for our club. Like Liverpool (but on a bigger scale) they buy in the best talent. Our academy is the best at what it does by a long chalk. Liverpool's is ok, but miles behind us, and Gerrard will not make a massive difference at all.

was he highly rated?strange move for him, you'd think he'd be after 1st team football at a lower level

hes been in the england squad in every age group but hasnt got a kick for us since being too old for u18s. very lightweight
...always reminded me of a Sean Doherty type. Sean joined Fulham for decent money. I dare say we would get a fee for Holland.
