Is this still true with our category 1 academy?
Got something to say or just want fewer pesky ads? Join us... 😊
Does anybody know why this kid is wearing an Albion shirt?

Perhaps we can sell this kid for 90m and be in profit with the cat 1 academy

He sounds very promising, what position does he play

Not true to such a great extent, now instead of getting thousands we'll get hundreds of thousands.
Luis Garcia Is really starting to intrigue me. Two days ago he re-tweets a tweet from Mark Anderson, who is our Academy Player Recruitment Manager, today he tweets match day versus Aston Villa. The location of the first tweet was Las Palmas and the second, the slightly less exotic Sompting.
Is he a full timer with the Academy, who gets time off to visit home, or is he coming over just for matches ?

I heard he was only on trial in the summer. Whether today's game is another trial or he's now signed, I don't know.

If he's the kid Barca want, why is he only on trial?
He can't sign until he's 16.
ALBION: Hobbs (GK); Courtney, White, Horncastle, Barnett (Cox 76); Collar, Hutchinson, Tighe, Pring (Rowe-Hurst 37), Maguire-Drew, Tilley (Meyers 87). Sub not used: Mar-Larusson.
No Garcia.
The keeper Hobbs gets a lot of plaudits in that report. First time I've heard the name. We must have a heap of young keepers now?
Walton, the Ireland u19 lad, the one from Charlton and Hobbs. Any chance of a quick round up of how old they each are, and any details, please [MENTION=1276]AZ Gull[/MENTION] ?
I think this is correct.
1st year scholar 16/17 years
2nd year scholar 17/18 years
Thanks [MENTION=5101]BigGully[/MENTION]
So, in terms of keepers coming through, we have:
Christian Walton - still only 18. Capped by England up to U20 level.
Josh Smith - also 18? - signed after being released by Charlton, to replace Walton, when he moved up to the first team squad (although Walton plays for the U21s tonight).
Harry Doherty - 18? - current Republic of Ireland U10 international - signed via Jon Morland connections.
George Hobbs - playing up from the U16 squad in the U18s and producing a fine display to keep out Chelsea.
[MENTION=1276]AZ Gull[/MENTION] - and meat you can put on these bones?

Isn"t Doherty a little old for the under 10s?
Irish rules.

Luis Garcia scored his first goal for the U-18s against Norwich on Saturday - UNDER-18S EDGED OUT BY NORWICH
And, whilst another defeat for the U-18s was disappointing, it appears they played pretty well. From the Norwich City report of the match - REPORT: BRIGHTON 1-3 U18s
