    I really do appreciate some posters hoping for our academy graduates to make the grade. Hopefully in the future this will actually happen.

    But I feel that a reality check is called for. Currently we have Calum Cooke on loan who is just a young lad, a lot younger than most of our current academy graduates. To be honest this young lads passion effort and workrate is far in excess of our own youngsters. If our young plyers really want to make the grade they really have to up their efforts.

    Callum Cooke's a good player; he's doing well; he's also older than Kirk, Ainley, Lowery & Wintle. He's 20; they'll each become 20 by the end of the year.

    You may well be right jimmy, but I was merely pointing out to the poster, ruocul, that he is by no means "a lot younger than most of our current academy graduates"

    Sounded worse than anything we ever had to suffer under Davis.

    Well that was something they would not have achieved under Davis.
    Brilliant result.
