Guest bimpy474 Posted January 4, 2014 Share Posted January 4, 2014 Well TT what can I say. as usual you resort to attacks, personal insults and nothing but vitriol. True to form sadly. I was merely suggesting that imo our youth set up, academy whatever you want to call it has been failing for some time. We dont seem to develop youngsters to the level or standard that we require, or the level we should certainly be aiming for. Consistently failing imo. Maybe we, and clubs like us, at our status/level aren't the best places for these kids to actually develop? maybe a progressive development via lower league set ups would lead to youngsters having progressive rather than regressive career developments.? Are other clubs as unsuccessful as us in developing young talent? Maybe Niel, brum or Zolton can shed light? or do we and others just not 'get rid' of non developing players in a timeous manner, imo we seem to have kids at 16/17 who are still the same player at 22/23 an awful lot... I have never said we should scrap our youth developmnet programme, rather I want it to be better and actually work. imo at the moment it is poor in terms of its results. As for young Adam. I thnik the lad will have a very succesful career in football. There is no shame in being a pro footballer operating at league 1,2, championship or in the SPL etc. I personally do not see anything in the lad that suggests he is or will be a player who can make an impact with us or at the level we are allegedly aiming for. If im a lunatic for having this belief then thats your opinion TT. I would call it a diffence of opinion and would hope not to belittle you by personal insults. I aint a WUM, or seeking attention either, merely trying to concerse with N.O posters whos views and opinions I respect and enjoy, on the most part, reading. Bimpy..I have a variety of hats, including an authentic Soviet style guards hat, rabbit fur, complete with glorious hammer and sycle badge..may be nice with some salt and chilli sauce. We can judge wheter I will be eating it sometime around 2016/17 I would imagine I was just wondering if it actually occured, which hat you might eat. I was really hoping you have one of those massive cowboy hats Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
loki679 Posted January 4, 2014 Share Posted January 4, 2014 I might get a hat made of dried beef just in case this ever comes up. Decorate the brim with mustard powder for a quick and easy dip if the need arises. Edit: now that's a new page wanker. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

BrettNUFC Posted January 5, 2014 Share Posted January 5, 2014 I'm of the opinion Campbell won't make it but if we did get rid of him now i don't think it would be wise as he's 19 and could still yet improve on areas of game which he struggles with. He's a good finisher, good movement and has the pace but there's some major weaknesses in his game which are all too glaring even in the under 21's but he's very much one to keep an eye on and let him develop. I don't think he'll make it but i'm more than happy to keep him under our wing than let him go for the next of nothing. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ujpest doza Posted January 6, 2014 Share Posted January 6, 2014 St Mirren Vs Celtic is on Sky today at 12:45 for those who want to actually watch him play. I watched that up until Celtic scored. Newton and Campbell both seemed to play okay but i have serious doubts whether Campbell will make it at PL level due to his size. He's pacey and seems to be a decent player but he got no change whatsoever out of the 2 big Celtic centre backs who dwarfed him. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Haris Vuckic Posted January 10, 2014 Share Posted January 10, 2014 I think the entire thing about having to be a big bloke to play football is bollocks anyway. It gets proved time and time again if you're good enough if it doesn't matter if you're 5'8 or 6'8. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
The College Dropout Posted January 10, 2014 Share Posted January 10, 2014 Strikers in his mould have to learn how to be wide forwards now. That Berahino lad from West Brom would've been a numbe 9 type striker 10 years ago. Seems a very tidy finisher. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Haris Vuckic Posted January 10, 2014 Share Posted January 10, 2014 I watched Berahino for the U21's and he looked an instant hit. His goal at West Ham was class - perfectly placed - a natural. He's from Burundi too - maybe wor Bigi can have a word? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
The College Dropout Posted January 10, 2014 Share Posted January 10, 2014 I saw an old West Ham game on Sky the other day. Defoe's been a tidy finisher for a long time, I don't think his games gotten any better since he was like 23 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
