No idea why we have not got any future stars I know this sometimes happens with age groups but something needs to improve !
    That's scary, some 18/19 year olds are already 1st team players for some clubs..............

    My Son was approached by Sheff Utd. They adored him but for whatever reason he packed it in?????? believe it or not hoping Rotherham picked him up but nothing came of it. He was at the time the South Yorkshire Junior Javelin champion throwing 49 metres at Don Valley Stadium at 14 years of age. He was only 1 metre short of throwing for England Juniors at the AAA's.

    My lad was in the same team as Jagielka but I'll never understand why he walked away from Sheff Utd, I'm his Father but he was a phenomenal midfield Captain. Ah well we all make our choices in life, he's very successful in his current career but, he could have retired by now and probably very wealthy but you sometimes can't tell your kids everything.
