We play some nice stuff but ponce around a bit too much at times.

Loader has been giving them fits when he is so direct.

2-1 to the good guys and a brace for Danny!

I think I'm watching via Twatter?? Anyway Nolan added a 3rd swiftly followed a fourth although not sure by whom. Anyway we're 4-1 up.

Thanks - only saw the ball nestling the net as wife was castigating me for eating too much chocolate! :oops:

Loader looks good. Possible place on the 1st XI bench as the season draws to a gloomy close?

Just been watching the highlights, these guys are streets ahead of the boring turgid football the first team seem to deliver week in week out!! yes i understand the opposition is not Chump standard, but the fast flowing attacking football is a joy to watch and pretty much all we are asking for.
Makes me wonder if there is a different philosophy regarding playing styles between the junior teams and the senior teams?

It really makes you wonder.....

No, funnily enough I imagine Stam wants to first team to play that way too.

I'd love to think the first team squad are shown the entirety of this match.

But has talked about so many different “certain situations” that they have no idea what he wants them to do.

I do wonder if there is an overcoaching of the first 11. Whoever I’ve seen the youth teams they play the style far more effectively than the first 11.

Report says one of the lads who played was 15 (Samuel) Maybe a name to keep an eye on.

I know he is young, I know he has no experience and I know the Championship is a different animal to the FA Youth Cup but for the love of god drop Yann for Loader. Maybe not in the starting line up but at least for a place in the match day squad. Nothing I would love to see more than a young academy lad getting in the first team and getting game time.

A 36 year old, out of form and unfit man has no place in this squad currently. Loader is the future and he will only get experience if he is in and around that first team squad. Under Stam he has no chance.

Just no. Please don’t bring any kids in and destroy their development in the toxic mess that is this first team. Wait until the next regime or they may end up like Kelly.
