I've just had a thought, since he's come in and unofficially taken over Beardsley's role, our under 23's have started winning.

We've won at least 3 possible 4 in a row now, including 2 checkatrade games against league opposition.

I know that Beardsley went officially a while ago but his replacement was just one of the coaches that would of been using Beardsleys ideas etc. - i assume?

Now we've got a new guy in who has experience of bringing young players through, playing to their strengths and keeping them on the straight and narrow and things have picked up.

This isn't meant to be some call out of Rafa either, it was just something i thought about in relation to our under 23s.
