Although many might not make the grade I do get excited hoping that some of these guys fire us to better days
Agreed
Like the look of Camwell as well at left back.
Good size already very physical and a wicked left foot
The next Stuart Pearce?
Just maybe!!

Bayliss' development has surprised me this season. His passing and the weight of it is impressive. Shows what full time training can do for you

This is the best thing about the club at the moment,
Just wish the intention could be to develop them to make a promotion team out of as oppose to one or two been sold to fund the squad.
Ponticelli has bags of potential

Shame Glover has gone. It's a promotion for him but it'll nevertheless be SISU's fault for the fact he's gone.

I have already targeted them for the Brexit too if it happens.

So, adding to the list, those who hate us are Lee Glover, Sisu, Wasps, ACL, Higgs, CCC, Steven Pressley and ISIS.
Anyone else?

I think on the day of the apocalypse in 2345 people up there will still be wearing 'We hate Jimmy Hill' and 'Coventry Cheating Bastard' t-shirts.
Hopefully when they all go down to the eternal pit of fire and flame there will be no 15 minute delay.

Top coach good luck to him, coaches seem to move around a lot at that age group.

I would like to see Paul Williams as U21 coach

I wonder if Sam Ricketts may get a bit more involved also might save part of a salary if he were to run it.

An U19 team beat the Strachan Football Foundation 6-0 earlier (Finn, Hendricks, Hickman, McMahon, Bayliss, Sayoud).
Darragh Leahy, Jordan Shipley and Corey Addai are with the first team in Austria but it seems Whitmore, Maycock and Sayoud didn't travel

The U18s play at the Alan Higgs Centre but I believe they've been moved from the main/usual pitch and are now using another one
The U21s alternate between the Ricoh, Ryton (behind closed doors) and the Alan Higgs Centre
