RedRock Posted February 2, 2017 Report Share Posted February 2, 2017 I like Brian. Let's hope he'll develop some horrible, no prisoners, winners. Upturn in the U 23's looks promising. First time ever, I'm starting think The Academy may deliver and be worth the financial investment. Long time coming but 'on the rise'. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Up The City! Posted February 2, 2017 Report Share Posted February 2, 2017 I really did enjoy that. Putting the defeats aside it does seem over the past 12 months or so this football club has really became a proper well organised football club with some very food foundations.

JHAGa Posted February 2, 2017 Report Share Posted February 2, 2017 Tinman is such a gent. A true legend at the club. The likes of him and Scotty are just content to serve City due to their love for the club, exactly the sort of people you want in the set-up. It's great to see it. BT spoke very well, a really enjoyable interview. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the armchair critics of our academy should take 10 minutes to watch this. I also like the fact that BT is so positive about the Channel Island links which many put down as a Lansdown vanity project. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd love to see that happen. Trouble is we finally seem to have some good young players at the same time we've started signing experienced ones like they are going out of fashion. Hopefully we can get the squad size down a bit next season and use these young players when needed - good to see Vyner get his chance the other day, hope that becomes a regular thing.

Taz Posted February 2, 2017 Report Share Posted February 2, 2017 Really good interview. The academy has always been something that will take a few years to be "worthwhile", and a lot of changes with personnel have been made previously. It now seems that there is a focus on this group of players, and they are being properly managed. Tins spoke of the links being made, and the importance of getting the lads out on loan playing mens football. Max O' Leary and Zack Vyner being the two main names mentioned. We need more stuff like this, it will be great when the website is bought back in house, and hopefully a lot more time is dedicated to the development squads.

City37 Posted February 2, 2017 Report Share Posted February 2, 2017 Good to hear some more positives from our club. We've had a few soul destroying couple of months (with a few tricky ones ahead of us!) but overall as a club we are progressing. That's the first time I've heard Brian talk for a while - I think I can hear a Bristol accent in there at times. Mind you, he must have been down here for 25 years - apart from his time in Spain. Blimey - how the years have flown by. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I remember correctly it was 1997 which mean the first group of kids to come all the way through the academy system are only now 20ish. So really this is the time to start judging the academy and it sounds like things are going well. Surely it was years before that as carey, t doc, matty hill and loads of others were coming through then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reid with Hegler in the middle, Golbourne and Bryan on the left and Cott's on the Right..... it could actually happen.... Christ I hope not! The answer to the question re Vyner is "yes, he is". Emergency cover only. Reid is not in any way a defensive midfielder. Golborne and Bryan have been anonymous as wingbacks, if that's the suggestion for them.
