Go Kids Go..!

A couple of seasons back me and the lad went to Millwall in the "League Cup". Brownhill scored with a screamer, but my abiding memory of that night was how well Bobby Thomas played at centre back. Dyche never game him a look in after that, and I think that will be the major difference between Vinny and and SD, one will put his trust in kids and one never did.

Dyche trusted his judgement, and he was possibly the best judge of a young player I've ever known. I don't know exactly, but he must have seen in excess of 200 youngsters in our academy and dev squad teams in his time here. Of those, he only ever gave one an extended run in the first team, and he turned out to be a PL class winger. None of the others, not a single one in all that time, has gone elsewhere and proved him wrong. That looks like a 100% record to me, quite remarkable, as David Coleman used to say.
