W-S-M Seagull Posted December 5, 2023 Report Share Posted December 5, 2023 Will we see Wells play? In Pearsons last interview he was said to be close to a return. He's seemingly completely disappeared off the radar since then. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bcfc01 Posted December 5, 2023 Author Report Share Posted December 5, 2023 Maybe a chance for one or two coming back from injury ? McCrorie Atkinson Naismith Roberts ? King Benarous Wells ? Not sure of the status of McCrorie and Atkinson. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FNQ Posted December 5, 2023 Report Share Posted December 5, 2023 Honestly not a loaded question… But assuming that the under 21s are also now playing the new Liam way, is this the main reason for a downturn in results with a couple of heavy defeats lately? Apart from young Beerholtz (you know who I mean) none of the kids are making up the numbers on the bench either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Young ones have a few out on loans & a few injuries inc Wood,Backwell & OTC. The likes of Yeboah, Nelson, JKL have been fast tracked because of first team squad depth so been missing for a number of games. Lots of young ones playing as they make their push for pro careers which means a number of current ones who are19/20 won’t make it and end up being released. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plus James, who actually started at Cardiff & Nelson who was repeatedly on the bench under Nige, are both only subs today. No idea where Sam Pearson or Araoye are, either. Know that Backwell & Taylor-Clarke are both injured. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Absolutely not, but be realistic. I am a huge fan of the Academy & love it seeing developing our own players but whilst we might well find another Pring or Bell, history suggests we won’t find another Scott.

A lot of clubs recruit from other clubs for youth recruitment, Scott being the obvious example but Pring was from Cheltenham. Brighton’s academy is full of players from abroad and from other clubs and that would be the same for a lot of the big 6 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Such a vindictive lot on here that seem to forget Tinnion is a loyal servant to this club and was a wonderful player, but that counts for nothing because of all the 'Nige' groupies who just cannot accept that sometimes a fresh start is a good thing. I see Sheff U and Swansea have today acted, but some on here just don't get it. I 2 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
