Blyth players proper gutted. 

 

We should have won much easier. Some really poor finishing and final ball passing.

 

I like how quick the team breaks though and some great moments And interplay. Great vision from the rcb (Maybe it was the RB) at one point later in the second half putting our right winger through.

Caught 50 mins or so. Really like the look of Harrison.

Saw 10 min, that was enough for me! Level above everyone else.

I've not heard of Blyth Town, so guessing they're quite far down the leagues. 

 

I know they're playing kids, but it must be a great experience for their players.

 

They only formed like 20 years ago or something. They've come along way very quickly.

From .com:

 

"Ahead of formal confirmation of the club's released and retained list, four members of Newcastle' development squad have announced their departures from SJP:

Matty Bondswell, Kyle Crossley, Amadou Diallo, Jordan Hackett, Michael Ndiweni and Jude Smith have all taken to social media in recent days.

It's also claimed that Lucas De Bolle, Will Brown and Dylan Stephenson are leaving, along with forgotten duo Rodrigo Vilca and Kelland Watts. "

Sounds like we're going to be extremely aggressive with our academy recruitment this year. We made some impressive moves last season and it wouldn't be a surprise to see us top it this time around, in terms of both quality and quantity. Not just at U18 level either but further down the age groups too.

Excellent news. We need to get the talent producing conveyer belt up and running.

I've always had a bit of a problem with players as young as 14 being snapped up by bigger clubs, especially when they have to relocate significantly for it. 

 

I guess players bounce around academies in their region all the time but I don't know it just feels a bit unethical buying a 14 year old

 

Might just be me

Seen the Secret Scout on Twitter discussing that lots of players are now moving before they get to 16 more frequently this summer.  Apparently, the offer of paid for education etc is being used as a carrot to dangle
