    Only Hatton? They both a run out, does it matter now we are down the pride has gone and the damage is done.

    Anyway, looking at our current four forwards, what's to lose giving these two young, hungry, willing and able players who WANT to play for the club?

    20/30 academy players promoted to the first teams is impressive
    We might have done that from 1970 - now

    How long has he been managing? 20/30 players is a lot for such a young unsuccessful manager

    Just checked. The games he's managed adds up to 4 full seasons. That's between 5 and 7.5 players per season... Wow. Maybe he is the Messiah and he will save us next season

    Sounds like the desperate action of a man, trying to keep his job

    Yes Brin, maybe it’s only Hatton because he’s reached his 18th birthday

    Younger than that the club has to have separate changing facilities and showers under the EFL safeguarding rules

    I took those stats to mean whilst LR was at those two clubs in whatever capacity and not necessarily as first team Manager.
    Even so it’s still impressive from those two clubs compared to what we’ve done

    What worries me in the interview is he says he might play if it benefits the play and talks about it damaging the player to play too early. That is just crap to give him an excuse to get us excited and then not play him. LR isn’t capable of saying anything straight talking, are we sure he is a Yorkshireman

    He's desperately blowing his own trumpet.
