I recommended this German 15yr old to BFC. He was with a Bundesliga club before coming to England to further his career.

He is currently with Reading and also Langley and has offers from Fulham.

To cut a long story short BFC sent some scouts and he scored two and set up the other two. He has been invited to BFC for the youths training and I hope he makes it.

He is absolute quality and a 6ft 1" natural athelete.

My only worry is the stick he will get for being German if he plays for the first team.

He could be a national front extremist or a terrorist for all I care if he scores goals for the bees that will do for me.

kick out those who did not take advantage of our education system enough to spell "extremist"....:fishing:

So he's with Reading and has offers from Fulham but he's gonna join Brentford??? :confused:
 

Tobias Weppelmann

I wouldnt care if he was Welsh ! Has this country gone back 60 years so we have to worry about the Nationality of our players ?
 

Tobias Weppelmann

Is Ace Face the new John Griffin ?


Or is he grabbing at names from anywhere so that when one makes it he can reckon himself a chief footie scout ?


I'd go for the latter personally ! :rolleyes:


:fishing: :D

Didn`t want the travelling involved in going to Fulhams training ground and wasn`t overly happy at Reading.

Also I hope that BFC is getting a good name for youth development.:sorted:

Kids are pretty sharp these days - they realise they are much more likely to play football at clubs like Brentford!!

Its about time parents started to see this too. As much as you'd like your son to play for Chelsea or other 'biggish' i.e. Spurs/Arsenal/West Ham they're more likely to succeed at a lower league club, like Brentford (at present anyway) where first team football is a possibility. These Premier clubs do have excellent talent but the kids must wonder if they'll ever get that chance to succeed.

I think Javray got a bit of stick. What a waste of talent. Didn't he play along side Henry, Viera and Pires in a French U19 side and then in the first team at Barcelona ?
 

Tobias Weppelmann

Javary got some stick? Not as much as he dished out to a team-mate in the reserves at Cheltenham!

Waiting for a :computer: to remind me who was Javary's victim!

yes. Unfortunately he turned to Wally Downes and then later Neil Warnock as a last grasp bid to turn his career around for him, hiding to nothing...

Don't drag me into this. I'd have gotten away with it if it weren't for you pesky kids.
 

Tobias Weppelmann

why would a youth player if he was any good want to give up the chance of 1st/premiership football for a 2nd division club if they was interested in him and at the clubs you have mentioned he would have a chance of breaking into the 1st team it just doesnt happen in this day and age .. i can feel a nice agents fee comming on somewhere
 

Tobias Weppelmann

Played 1 half of a training game sacoring twice and is playing for BFC under 16 side on Saturday. Really enjoyed training.

By the way his dad is his "agent" and the DJ move to the Premiership convinced him that a shop window approach at BFC is better than reserves route at Fulham.

I am going to try and watch Toby on Sat.
 

Tobias Weppelmann

Update.

Toby is very highly regarded and BFC I hope have recognised this.

Although he is 15 1/2years of age I am not sure if he is being played by BFC in the 15year olds team or the 16year old team.

In his last game for BFC against Southend, they lost 3 - 1 but he scored the BEES goal.

Apparently he loves training and ex-players who have seen him give him glowing reviews.

He is a big lad and has the physique to make it at BFC.

Not sure what this says about me or this young man but you also get "baste nipple woman" as an alternative.

Spoke to Tobias`s dad on Wednesday and although Tobias is back in Germany with a bundesligia tie up, he expressed how good the training was at Brentford and that they really put the players through their paces. He said it was better than the training in Germany.

Doesn`t mean much, but at least it shows that Barry Quinn & co, are getting good reviews for their coaching.
