As thought moved down to U21s
Feel the same way, don’t think the staff recruitment is all done.Wouldn’t be surprised to see Dempsey next and then Williams. Gives space for Lampard to bring some more staff in.

Is there anyone you like at our club?It’s more than Delaney deserved. He should have been demoted to the under 11s or fired.
Hopefully it’s Aled Williams being booted out of the door next.
Why’s that then?It’s more than Delaney deserved. He should have been demoted to the under 11s or fired.

In fact why are you so unhinged?It’s more than Delaney deserved. He should have been demoted to the under 11s or fired.

Which keeper?Williams gets a deranged amount of criticism. Especially considering he’s responsible for overseeing maybe the single largest improvement in a keeper I’ve ever seen in our squad.
WilsonWhich keeper?
I dunno about improvement. He's just always been a great number 2 keeper I thinkWilson
Wilson was completely unplayable (in a bad way) when he first joined. I’m no huge fan of his today, but the fact he became a serviceable Championship keeper from that starting point can only really be down to the coaches.I dunno about improvement. He's just always been a great number 2 keeper I think
But I ain't got no issue with Williams
Is there anyone you like at our club?
Since the departure of Mark Robins… No.
Under 18's beforeIs that the same job he was doing before?
Seems to be on Doug’s mind as well based on his talksport percentage comment.It’s one of the things that worries me at the moment. Can’t think of a home grown player seriously pushing for a starting place since Eccles. Andrews and Dausch thereabouts but it’s a real dearth of talent at the moment.
Wasn't that a winning coaching squad tho?Strange, I'm pretty sure we used to have a manager that was sacked for 'deconstructing' the coaching squad. Times change.
In the lower leagues there to easier to get players through at this level and above you are lucky to get one.
I've often thought exactly the same,I think the old Central league (reserve team) was a brilliant set up for trying young players in men's football with older players helping them along.It's funny how times have changed. When I first started going to HR when we were in the top league there was an endless stream of homegrown players making it into the first team, and we could probably have had an entire XI made from them. Sealey, Thomas, Roberts, Blair, Dyson, Butterworth, Bodak, Bannister Thompson, Hateley, Whitton.
