useless Posted July 14, 2022 Share Posted July 14, 2022 I wish we would hurry up and name our new scholars for next season, we seem to leave everything late, would be nice to know that we've managed to hang onto our best sixteen year olds, noticed a few other teams have been losing theirs, I think brexit and not being able to sign U18s from Europe means there's now more competition for U18s in this country, good sign that Kadan Young played against Hednesford though. I think he actually left during last season rather than this summer but Harley Mills left-back who would have been a first year scholar this coming season has gone to Peterborough. Not first year scholar related, but saw Kidderminster fan suggest that Dewain Sewall played for them on trial in one of their recent friendlies, no idea how accurate that is. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

useless Posted July 14, 2022 Share Posted July 14, 2022 Henry Cowans and Jake Walker both played for Newton in the Europa Conference League this evening, they won on penalties to go through to the next round, Cowans scored one of the goals in regular time. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

useless Posted July 14, 2022 Share Posted July 14, 2022 The CEE Cup is U19s, but because our U21s are mostly U19 anyway, we could take either a U19 team or a U21 team, or maybe a mix of both. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wes Posted July 15, 2022 Share Posted July 15, 2022 The Australian Tour Squad has been announced on the Official Site. Thought it was interesting that Josh Feeney was included. Good for him! Think he's the youngest one there at 17? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

useless Posted July 16, 2022 Share Posted July 16, 2022 He (Cole Ramsey) was part of the team that won the U14s Albert Phelan Cup South, but I don't know if he played today for the U16s or if he's ever played at that level, I think he's played for the U15s already though, so maybe could make some appearances for the U16s next season if he hasn't already. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
useless Posted July 16, 2022 Share Posted July 16, 2022 Slightly confused by that as there's nothing on the CEE Cup's offical youtube or twitter pages, I think whatever the above is is some sort of pre-tournamet tournament. This is the schedule on the tournament's official website 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
useless Posted July 16, 2022 Share Posted July 16, 2022 (edited) Edit I think the above games are for something called the 'Memoriálu S. Štrunce' trophy, the CEE Cup proper starts this Friday as indicated on the CEE Cup's official website above.

useless Posted July 16, 2022 Share Posted July 16, 2022 (edited) At the bottom of this page (Fotogalerie) there's a photo gallery from the Viktoria Plzen match, you have to cycle through a few pictures before getting to the ones from the Villa game. A lot of the players I don't recognize, last season's first year scholars are there, Dylan Mitchell is also there, so I'm guessing a lot of the others must be last season's U16s being promoted to U18s next season, if the same players are going to compete in the CEE Cup next weekend then will make it interesting to watch, presuming it's on youtube like previous seasons. Tomorrows' game against Rangers kick-off 12pm UK time. Edited July 16, 2022 by useless 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
useless Posted July 17, 2022 Share Posted July 17, 2022 Photo gallery from the other game, which I think is in fact the FC Viktoria Plzeň match, the photo gallery linked above must be from the game against Zilina. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

useless Posted July 18, 2022 Share Posted July 18, 2022 (edited) List of the new scholars Abube Onuchukwu, Thierry Katsukunya, Nile Timson, Sam Lewis, Dylan Mitchell, Travis Patterson, Charlie Pavey, Kadan Young, Archie Duerden, Omari Kellyman, I-Lani Edwards, Alex Hammond, Jack McDowell, Rory Wilson There's also a brief description of each one on the official site Wasn't expecting that many, I think Ewan Simpson probably still happening as well once he turns sixteen, and then considering the likes of Triston Rowe, Luka Lynch, and Broggio have already played for the U18s, we could see them play an age up on occassion as well, I think Broggio is with the U19s in Czech Republic at the moment.
