Or maybe, and I realise this is probably quite an outlandish suggestion, there'll be flexibility depending on the game, personnel and opposition?

Wonder what the allocation will be. Anyone know what we took there last season?

Can tell its the summer holidays and the kids are getting bored

A serious of major injuries one after the other really stunted his progress.

Didn't RM mention something about being rested? Bit of a weird explanation I thought.

Kami Doyle, after leaving us for "better 1st team opportunities" at Brighton, hasn't even made an appearance for them in pre-season. Going well, then! Whereas if he was here, he no doubt wouldve been given a chance to stake a claim. Still, ££££££

I'd like to know a bit more about the academy; More specifically, why have we cut back on wages we offer scholars, thus losing 2 of our better talents? And why certain players seem to want out; do we make promises and then break them? (Doyle & Meghoma spring to mind) Not that I would expect either to be answered, but perhaps a more broad view of how they see the academy over the next couple of years because it really feels like we prioritise other clubs youngsters more than our own...

Sunderland were hoping he'd be back playing for them after last September's International break 😅

Poor attitude as well. Honestly, one good purple patch but otherwise he's done very little with us and at Fulham ... don't get the hype at all.

Because he's nowhere near their 1st team.

Yep. Maddison had a tour round Staplewood and everything.

I have a proposition ... Tall Paul, we've found you a home.

Laying the groundwork for "we tried, but we just couldn't get these deals over the line and we won't be held to ransom yada yada yada" briefing at the end of the window.

Puma are overrated shite.

What an absolute shambles. Another great move from the club here. Bravo.

Vile.

I don't know what's worse; McCarthy playing most of the season, or Bazunu coming straight back into the side to relieve him. We don't sign a keeper, we're fucked.

Team of duds; realistically the majority of them aren't good enough for a PL squad. Maybe it's their showcase game to watching scouts?

They just want you to download their shitty app, for full content and coverage. Same as why full videos aren't uploaded to YouTube or Twitter anymore. I'll pass, personally.

So? He played in our academy, he signed orignally as an academy scholar. Its possible to represent more than one academy you know. I do wish we'd put as much effort into our own youngsters as we do the likes of Bazunu, Mara & Edozie.

Can't say I blame him. We have no academy pathway any more, we're just not interested in developing these players. The academy is on deaths door here, sadly.

Stephens is there, was in the background of the team leaving Staplewood this morning. Would assume he's got a minor injury.

Genuinely cannot believe he's still not fit to play any minutes against a National League side. Nothing against him, but really?

Onuachu is due back training with us over the weekend, supposedly.

Interesting that Alcaraz & (especially) Kotchap came back then after their loans... Perhaps they've got a chance at reintegrating themselves.
