Squad for tonights game vs West Ham U21s

Cotman, Whittall, Tank, Iorfa, Cranston, Ismail, Evans, Price, Forde, Cassidy, McAlinden.

SUBS: Flatt, Jakobsson, Schofield, Dell

Good to see a few U18s involved on the bench

 

[Johnny75]

Forde and Cassidy are now unlikely to feature in the first team when what they need is games at a much higher level. What a shame this system hasn't worked better than it planned to be, neither competitive at a high level or representative of preperation for first team games. A pity as it was very well intentioned.

Interesting that very few fringe players are involved in tonights game.

Oh please no Hunt............

Hunt's injured himself I think (hope). Chest injury. Probably did it lifting weights trying to make himself into a 'little ball of steel'.

I heard he was involved in a tragic accident with a rogue MRI machine

Cassidy (pen) & Parry with the Wolves U21 goals

 

[The Bear]

At least one of our teams is doing well.

 

[Langers]

Excellent result, lads!

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

I like the look of Parry. Reminds me a bit of Kevin Cooper.

 

[Penk Wolf]

Poor first half, far better second half. Evans played well and Zeli had a couple of good moments. Iorfa looked solid at the back. Nothing from McAlinden or Cassidy.

I like the look of Parry. Reminds me a bit of Kevin Cooper.

Does he pull his sleeves over his hands instead of wearing gloves? Aside from his freekick/penalty combo against Derby it's all i can really remember of Cooper.

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

Cooper was a really good player. Jones blatantly signed him just to piss Albion off though (that went well). Never used him, even when Newton was rank for a good 18 months. Then signed him again for Cardiff. Dave Jones is a weird bloke.

His meaningless long distance scorcher vs Norwich in the play-offs was pretty special.

Didn't he play for him at Stockport too?

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

Yep. He does this a lot - fucked Oakes over multiple times at Wolves, signed him for Cardiff. Kept slagging Lee Naylor off and dropping him as the easiest scapegoat - kept giving him new deals, signed him for Cardiff.

Fell out with Bothroyd as I recall at Cardiff but signed him for Sheff Wed this season.

Wolves U21s vs Spurs U21s

Tonight at Telford Free for STHs 7pm KO

SQUAD: Cotman, Whittall, Tank, Ihiekwe, Cranston, Jakobsson, Evans, Price, Forde, Ismail, McAlinden. SUBS: Flatt, Reckord, Winnall, Gorman, Parry.


Will be very tough game Spurs are top and beat us 5-1 in the reverse fixture

 

[lemonjelly]

Gorman appears to have gone backwards, being on the bench now instead of a starter.
Reckord too.

He'll be gone in the summer. He had a trial with a Scottish club just before the transfer window, but they decided against it.

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

Hat-trick for David Moli today in the U18s (they lost 5-3 to Sunderland).
