ozzmeister Posted 16 July, 2014 Posted 16 July, 2014 Someone mentioned on the recent 'MoPo' leaving thread that he has stayed living in chilworth because his son is in the saints academy? Is this the case, is he any good, and does this mean we may still MoPo every now again at the training ground? Seems odd he wouldn't move his kid to Tottenham academy (which can't be that bad). Was there also rumors that cortese son was in that academy, maybe it will be déjà vu in 30 years time lol!
DJ_TOAST Posted 16 July, 2014 Posted 16 July, 2014 thought that strange aswell, would kick him out given his fathers actions we don't owe them anything and no doubt his kid would up sticks and leave at first chance anyway
Killers Knee Posted 16 July, 2014 Posted 16 July, 2014 I would think its an employee perk to have his kid in the academy, a time limited membership under contractual obligation, not linked to the kids talent.
Brave Sir Robin Posted 16 July, 2014 Posted 16 July, 2014 Seems odd he wouldn't move his kid to Tottenham academy (which can't be that bad). Won't be as good as ours though. MoPo will be acutely aware of that now!

Kid! Pack your bags, no goodbyes to your friends, your Dad is a knob? Seems a bit harsh, I have no problem with his kid being here. Edited 16 July, 2014 by farawaysaint
sussexsaint Posted 16 July, 2014 Posted 16 July, 2014 Not that strange. Half Lallanas beard has stayed at the academy as well in an attempt to develop
Mallagroth Posted 16 July, 2014 Posted 16 July, 2014 Not that strange. Half Lallanas beard has stayed at the academy as well in an attempt to develop Yes i see it made a first half appearance in Belgium on McQueens face.

andoru Posted 17 July, 2014 Posted 17 July, 2014 If he's any good, we can hold Pochettino to ransom later when he wants to buy his son to play for him at whichever 'big' club he's managing by then.

By that time he will be a washed up old park bench alcoholic swilling special brew and barking at the moon... in drunken Spanish.
CB Fry Posted 17 July, 2014 Posted 17 July, 2014 By that time he will be a washed up old park bench alcoholic swilling special brew and barking at the moon... in drunken Spanish. Georgio Burlieo?
VectisSaint Posted 17 July, 2014 Posted 17 July, 2014 Thought the lad was actualy with Sholing reserves (or maybe Totton). He is 17 or so, think we would know if he was an academy player
westmidlandsaint Posted 17 July, 2014 Posted 17 July, 2014 I dont know about being an academy player but isn't he at Southampton/Solent University doing Sports Science??? if he was there then he wouldnt be a full time academy player
pap Posted 17 July, 2014 Posted 17 July, 2014 Georgio Burlieo? Mate of mine went to Benidorm using the term "sucko cocko" to impress the ladies. Would sir like to guess how many noshes he got?
Give it to Ron Posted 17 July, 2014 Posted 17 July, 2014 Thought the lad was actualy with Sholing reserves (or maybe Totton). He is 17 or so, think we would know if he was an academy player The younger was was in the u14s last year - watched him a couple of times - decent bit lightweight but has promise.
Charlie Wayman Posted 17 July, 2014 Posted 17 July, 2014 By that time he will be a washed up old park bench alcoholic swilling special brew and barking at the moon... in drunken Spanish. A nice image to cherish and thoroughly deserved.
Saint in Paradise Posted 17 July, 2014 Posted 17 July, 2014 A ready made spy to tip his father off about emerging talent so that Spurs scouts can have more time elsewhere to look for up and coming players.
FloridaMarlin Posted 17 July, 2014 Posted 17 July, 2014 I dont know about being an academy player but isn't he at Southampton/Solent University doing Sports Science??? if he was there then he wouldnt be a full time academy player He's got more than one son.
Saint-Armstrong Posted 17 July, 2014 Posted 17 July, 2014 Poch said he has two sons before - as someone said, I think Maurizio is the one in the academy. The older one is studying at Solent (because I know one of his course mates) - he's called Sebastian, or something similar.
Saint Charlie Posted 17 July, 2014 Posted 17 July, 2014 Saw the academy one pop up on instagram. Fonte follows him.
Chez Posted 17 July, 2014 Posted 17 July, 2014 He's got more than one son. as we well know from their trip to the Spurs training ground shortly before MoPo's move.
Toon Saint Posted 17 July, 2014 Posted 17 July, 2014 Saw the academy one pop up on instagram. Fonte follows him. http://instagr.in/u/maurip8 Listed as a 'baller for Saints', whatever that means.
sammysaint Posted 17 July, 2014 Posted 17 July, 2014 http://instagr.in/u/maurip8 Listed as a 'baller for Saints', whatever that means. We must have a basketball team, baller is a basketball word.
tpbury Posted 17 July, 2014 Posted 17 July, 2014 All academy players, and indeed all young men should be forced to listen to this song on continual rotation: Old Man by Neil Young http://open.spotify.com/track/2UVSP6BlF8AgQOpzfDUVL2
