Collingwood Street Posted July 8, 2021 Share Posted July 8, 2021 Without Wyke’s 30 goals, they would have been relegation fodder. Let’s hope it’s next year. The mackem bastards. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joey Linton Posted July 8, 2021 Share Posted July 8, 2021 Have they been linked with any centre forwards or are they just sticking with Will "guaranteed goals at this level" Grigg? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean yeah he's a league 1 player, he's not gonna have the first touch of pirlo, he scored a shit load of goals, i mean you kinda need that lol. They can't handle players who only score goals and don't run around putting two footers in. Was the same with Grabban and Maja.

Guest Posted July 8, 2021 Share Posted July 8, 2021 They say he’ll not score the same number now he doesn’t have McGeady handing them on a plate, but they now need to find someone who’s going to stick the crosses McGeady creates 30 times a season.

Dokko Posted July 8, 2021 Share Posted July 8, 2021 Shame McGeady signed on, easily their best player if not the best in the league. Had he retained a little more of his pace he’d have had good championship offers imo. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest HTT II Posted July 8, 2021 Share Posted July 8, 2021 (edited) They’ve just let my boy go along with twenty other kids, no explanation or anything, he’s been there over a year and honestly as biased as I am in all the sessions I’ve watched him participate in he stood out. I know from other dads they regularly do that and then ask kids back, but that’s not gonna happen with my boy, I’d rather he got let go at 7 than 15 and he’s been great about it, I’ve basically told him they have to give other kids an opportunity and it’s cycle thing they go though. Again poor communication for an academy though, really piss poor. Proud of my boy though and as a set up apart from their piss poor communication, it’s an excellent academy with great people and good young coaches. I wish their academy well, but the first team… rot in hell! Edited July 8, 2021 by HTT II Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was more gutted for him as he had made loads of friends, but I always treated it as extra training away from his grassroots team and to be fair the standard is high, but again he stood out, physically, skills wise, technical ability. I know what it is he’s not rapid like some kids, but he will skin anyone with the ball at his feet. He also doesn’t have the best stamina but he conserves his energy well, he doesn’t run around like a blue arsed fly, but he’s 7. H’e’s at Boro’s academy, been scouted by NUFC 3 times (apparently they have to scout a kid 4 times then make a decision) and he recently did a Gateshead footy camp and they are interested in him joining their under 7s group when they launch (I got great feedback off Mike Williamson, Ben Clark and Matty Pattison). I know he isn’t gonna make it as a pro, or if he does it will be some miracle and not at the highest level, so I just want him to enjoy his footy and any experience that comes along, academies or not. I asked the SAFC coaches for feedback, got told I’d get some info soon, and nothing, over 2 weeks now. Fuck them, their loss!

Aye I’ve told him it’s normal and to enjoy playing whether it’s for Boro, his grassroots team or in the school playground, thankfully he’s a confident boy but very level headed when it comes to his footy. I’ve been here before with my nephew who was at NUFC’s academy for 5 years over a decade ago, sadly he had a bad experience and doesn’t even play anymore much less watch footy. This a kid Beardsley said to me my nephew could do things that he couldn’t do in an England shirt, I know it’s lottery! And regardless, my boy will always be the best footballer I’ve ever seen Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paul Baker took charge of our age group one year (maybe the year before i got released), i think he had some sort of senior role when Benitez was here (might be wrong), and he liked me as a player. After one game he actually said to the team that how i played i.e passing the ball rather than just sprinting around, was the way to play. Next thing was he went to coach the under 19's and we got some Sunday league bloke who just wanted big lads in, and i got released.
