Only 4 against an under 11s team?...Under 18s won 4-0 today against Ull
Under 18s won 5-0 today. Triallist scored two (Cork guy?) nee also scored 2. Nee looks one to watch out for
Question for anyone close to U18/academy set up - not sure who is technically a second year scholar but out of those that are, who is looking likely to getting a pro contract?

Not involved in the set-up or whatever but I think these are the current second years technically.
Bapaga (ST - signed pro til 2023)
Burroughs, G (CB - seems to be captain, played most of the games and featured a few times for U23 so decent chance of a contract)
Costa (CM - not featured much at all so likely to be released I reckon)
Evans-Harriott (AM - signed pro til 2022 when he joined but technically still academy and has mainly featured for them with a few U23 appearances
Fallows (GK - not featured as much as expected and 1st year Bell played more often so likely to be released)
Finnegan (CM - signed from Brum on pro deal til 2022 but mainly featured for academy with a few U23)
Forsythe (CB - not featured as much as others so likely to be released)
Harland (CM - featured a lot for academy but not for U23. Could go either way)
McGrath (CB - signed pro til 2022 and has played a lot for both academy and U23)
Nee (CF - scored a lot of goals so very likely to be given a chance)
Nightingale (AM/W - played quite a lot for the academy but not really U23. Maybe/maybe not)
Pitts-Ekersall (CM - similar to Nightingale.)
Purves (W - not really featured so likely to be released)
Taylor (RB - not featured much but has been injured I believe. Probably released)
Howley is a first year who's also already signed a pro deal.
Any idea of 18’s who have signed pro deals. No mention of it on the official?

Where does Fionn O’Brien play?
Saw on twitter fallowes the young goalie was let go
Is there any confirmation on who was released/taken on from this year or on the new first years?
Dan Lafferty, Alex Costa, Keelan Fallows, Kai Forsyth, Matthew Harland, Joe Nightingale, Sam Pitts-Eckersall, Hayden Purves and Adam Taylor have not been offered professional contracts.
NEWS: Coventry City confirm Academy release list
Coventry City can confirm the Academy players who will be leaving the Club following the conclusion of their scholarships.www.ccfc.co.uk
Any surprises here?
Not really, Lafferty is talented but injured a lot. May have got another year but got Howley in the same position who’s 17 and will be getting fast tracked. The 23s will be more of an U19/U20 side next season.
U23s 21/22:
GK:
Cian Tyler (U20)
Tom Billson (U21)
DEF:
Blaine Rowe (U20)
Jay McGrath (U19)
George Burroughs (U19)
Josh Reid (U20)
Malakai Reeve (U18)
MID:
Jonathan Ngandu (U20)
Aaron Evans Harriott (U19)
Aidan Finnegan (U19)
Ryan Howley (U18)
ATT:
David Bremang (U22)
William Bapaga (U19)
Harrison Nee (U19)
Fabio Tavares (U21)
Incoming?
Marco Rus MID U19
Ricardo Dinanga ATT U20
Excluded Drysdale, Eccles and Burroughs.
Wording of that statement is strange, suggests that Lafferty was offered a contract but turned it down - as it doesn’t actually say he wasn’t offered a contract whereas below for all of the others it does?
Any surprises here?
Got a few players who are progressing into the U18s who I fully expect to make a big impact in the future...
Don't leave us hanging Sam...
Looking back at my post I now appreciate that I made it sound like we have Maradonna's rebirth in our youth ranks, which is somewhat misleading...
I don't think it's appropriate to name lads below the U18s online, but there are some real prospects throughout the age groups, including one son of a former Sky Blues player from overseas
And then in the current U18s, the ones to watch are probably Sam Rodber, Reese Massey, and Ryan Howley!

What has Malakai Reeve been like. I heard previously he was one of our top prospects.
Is that Claus Jorgensen’s lad? Seen he signed a few years back but must be pretty young still?
Haven't personally seen too much this season so not sure how he has found U18s football but he's certainly been excellent in the lower age groups and has really good athleticism
