    A place to discuss the Academy talent (U18s, U23s etc) and their activities/progress in the coming season.

    As mentioned in the transfer thread, there's a rumour going around the ITK Twitter feeds that Reo Griffiths' contract has been terminated due to him posting a video to his Instagram of him smoking a joint and/or huffing something from a baloon - this has led to another rumour on the ITK feeds that he's set to join Lyon, as he's been spotted on their training ground

    Then again, it's probably worth pointing out that our youngsters are currently in France for an U21 tournament, so if that explains the second one we can now turn our attention to how the ITKs can't seem to agree what his infraction was

    It was all a bit Ossie Ardiles for our U18s today as they came from 3-1 down to beat Brighton 6-4, with goals from Luis Binks, a Troy Parrott brace, Paris Maghoma, Brooklyn Lyons-Foster and J'Neil Bennett all scoring

    Weirdly, Binks' goal was an almost exact duplicate of Verts' against Newcastle - while Maghoma and Bennett both scored worldies

    The day I learned NewsNow had the option to mute sources was a happy one

    ...although I doubt he or his mindless drones have a clue what happiness or joy look like.

    The more digging I do, the more his whole operation looks uncannily like Britain First: everything that ever goes wrong with the club is always pinned on a minority, the most psychotic responses (which, naturally, agree with him) are showered with approval, any form of dissent is purged from the comments section as if it was never there, and anyone from the club who disagrees with his outlook is an "appeaser" or "traitor"

    That's why I like this site everyone has their opinions sometimes we agree sometimes we don't but we don't all follow one person like fecking sheep and get castigated if he don't like it.

    Interesting that Skipp, Amos and SHASHOUA aren't in the squad for this...

    And only four subs? Parrott starting in the U23s and no sign of Sterling? Hmm...

    IIRC Sterling was injured pre-season

    ...and it started well, with Eyoma getting a straight red for handball after just three minutes - although they missed the subsequent penalty

    Another day, another offside Saltypool goal...

    ...followed by Spurs once again demonstrating what an onside goal looks like...
