Scorers were Hacker, Oyeleke and McGeechan (2 - turns out the former Bolton man is a striker not a defencer)

I assume that he was recommended by Peter Farrell.

We have some talent on trial. On of them the young lad from Luton, guess he was one of the three that came with the youth coach. Great result for the lads, when you see the quality L'pool had playing.
 

BFC Set-up Development Squad

IMO results are secondary to the development of young talent who can grow into first teamers and fit into the system
 

BFC Set-up Development Squad

Absolutely or there's no point in having the Development squad. Exciting times ahead bringing our own talent through.
 

BFC Set-up Development Squad

Jack ward did I see in that line up? Thought he had been released
 

BFC Set-up Development Squad

But surely results build confidence.

Doesn't matter of the talent, if the team keep losing, then they are going to feel not bothered eventually.

Were we?

It was at their training ground, so you may have had difficulty getting in, but I'm sure if you asked they might have allowed you in. Those watching were probably family of the players.

I was glad to see we put a team together as I was concerned at only hearing of about 5 players signed to the DevSquad.
The yellow top with the black H looks good in action.
THe Boy from Bolton doesnt tweet much but mentioned something about "looking for something to do in Hounslow". Please can we move him away from Hell.
I reckon Luke Hacker looks a fine prospect. I just hope he doesn't get implicated in the NOTW/NewsInt shenanigans. Boomtish.

I also wonder if any Scousers got confused that we had CHARLIE ADAMs playing for us.

According to Mr Murtagh on twitter we've decided nt to offer him a deal anyway

Cannot see that on his twitter page, as he scored two goals yesterday thought we would be looking to have another look.
 

BFC Set-up Development Squad

Can't see anything saying that-just that we will be monitorring the two other guys. Maybe he's trying to keep his name hidden too!
 

BFC Set-up Development Squad

jacob murtagh (local journo who has ALL inside BFC info) has also confirmed on his myspace (remember that?) that Brentford FC announced this afternoon that they will never offer trials to, or sign, any decent players whatsoever.

NOTHING TO SEE HERE, MOVE ALONG.

Switched on to Liverpoolfc TV this afternoon just as goal highlights of the game was being shown on "LFC's most wanted: Today" - which is a countdown to their most watched videos.

Just noticed on today's schedule http://www.liverpoolfc.tv/lfctv/whats-on-when

17.00 - 17.15 "Live: LFC now" has latest news from the Academy, may include recent match highlights.

20.00 - 22.00 "LFC's most wanted: Today" could be a re-run of the earlier one at 14.00, if so our game came in at no 18 on the countdown.

The channel is free in UK and Ireland to those with basic Sky (Ch 434) or Virgin Media XL (Ch 544), might be worth a look. :)

heres hoping 1 or 2 of the development make the bench this season

We drew against a strong Liverpool reserves who could probably hold their own in this division. I reckon 1 or 2 could break into the first team.
 

BFC Set-up Development Squad

Andy Carroll - £35m Stewart Downing - £20m Jordan Henderson £19m

Great to see Scousers get robbed for a change.

Game V L'pool on Beesplayer now. Just watched the video and we have some very talented youngsters in our squad. They played some very good football. :sorted:
 

BFC Set-up Development Squad

Are we entered in any competitive games for the Development squad? I ask because having looked at other teams fixtures for their development squads some are entering regional cup competitions. For example Manchester City are in the Manchester Senior cup. Could we not enter the Middlesex Senior Cup or London? Teams like AFC Wimbledon, Met Police, Bromley, Hendon, Welling, Kingstonian will be entering (the LSC) which would give the team a chance to play some fairly decent teams in competitive matches. Obviously these teams are not going to be the same level as Liverpool etc, but the games won't be friendlies and these guys will give them a much more physical test which would surely be a benefit.
 

BFC Set-up Development Squad

I agree. I think it would benefit the young players and winning a trophy, even the Middlesex Senior Cup, could be beneficial to their confidence.
 

BFC Set-up Development Squad

I am sure the club will do right by these lads and have a little more about them than to have a development squad simply training all week telling one another how great there. Or worse still having them for warming the fulham reserves team

Non league players tend to use these games as an excuse to kick pro players up in the air.

Wouldn't mind entering these cups but we are then bound by registration and discipline issues etc.

Hi Rebus. Just wondering is there any reason that abee isn't posting at the moment?

I think that is a good idea.
Physical, competitive games, plus the discipline, and regulation, of such matches would, in my view, help develop our lads and preapare them for the realities, and the tough side, of professional football.
And it sure would be a great confidence-booster if they could win something:sorted:

BFC Set-up Development Squad

Does anyone know of any news about the players we had on trial for the Development squad e.g. Maison McGeechan?
 

BFC Set-up Development Squad

Bit of research on facebook and Twitter suggests he hasn't been offered anything-bit of a surprise! Can anyone confirm this?
 

BFC Set-up Development Squad

About to kick off against Nike Academy.

Lineup: Jack Middleton, Fernando Spence, Alfie Mawson, Aaron Pierre, Michael Kamau; Charlie Adams, Tyrell Miller-Rodney, Kelhme Casda, James Hopcott; Jack Ward, Emmanuel Oyeleke

It looks like Maison McGeechan is no longer with us despite impressing against Liverpool.
