A bit of an anomaly was Eli. One minute he'd look levels above us, beating players and scoring brilliant goals (that goal against Oxford City has got to be one of the best goals ever scored by a Notts player) but then, in the next phase of play, he'd genuinely look like an alien who didn't even know what football was.Quote:

Can you see him as part of a passing group carefully advancing forward? I can't, but as an isolated striker or part of a breakaway duo, well perhaps, but that scenario isn't part of an LW plan. It happens though.Quote:

He's also been injured for a few games believe he's got to have a knee op - also won their player of the year.Quote:

Craig Westcarr is leaving Hucknall Town to pursue his next challenge.
Edit: Just looking at the Hucknall Town FC site:
"Hucknall Town FC Promotional Video
28 February
2023 Play-off final Post Match Interviews 29th April 20023"
I'll put the date in my diary, but it seems a long time to wait XD
Stevenage won promotion back to League 1 this year with a squad which includes Jake Reeves and Luther James-Wildin.
Wildin has now made nearly 200 League appearances for them since we released him from our youth set up in 2017. There's often talk of 'why don't we bring any good youngsters through' but with him and Colby Bishop both released around the same time, it's clear we do - we just haven't seen much benefit from it ourselves for a while.
The problem is, we have to make a pint on players who are 18, Bishop spent a few years in non league before Accrington took a punt on him.Quote:

If I was Notts, I think I'd scrap the academy, spend the money on an under 23/reserve team and develop players such as Francis who were dropped from premier league academies. I believe Brentford did this to great effect
The other lad who’s left with him Kieran Knight he’s. Proper striker just a shame we don’t have a U23 side I’d of liked to of seen knight in a Notts shirt and see what we could of made out of himQuote:
