    Tomlinson

    Great to see him being slowly eased into things. Think next season he could be a more involved, whatever division we find ourselves in, and have the impression he could be next major homegrown find. A Burnley born rovers fan too, must be a rarity!

    It's always hard to judge, Saxo, but I agree he looks as if he will be in the team quite regularly from next season.
    Our current crop of youngsters certainly looks to be among the strongest we've had. Mowbray's comments about Gallagher are interesting. TM says he is not the finished product yet, so it is obvious the step up from Development level is a big one. All the same, Lenihan, Nyambe and Mahoney have made the transition successfully, so I am quite optimistic about some of the others.
    I am also waiting to see what happens with Adam Henley when he is fit. Mowbray will have no preconceptions, so it will be interesting to see his judgement of Henley's ability.

    Yes - that was the case. Apparently, it's the only explanation for his high IQ.

    A top player in the making
    I still feel he will be used more as a sub next season to build him up along with another prospect Butterworth.
    in all the gloom our academy is a shining light.
