I'm sorry but I couldn't disagree more.
Nicky Rust was a brilliant shot stopper, in a terrible team. Indeed; if he'd had the breaks, he could have gone on to challenge Buffon at the Old Lady.
Mark Ormerod too, actually a great keeper in a woeful team. After all, putting myself in their boots or errmmmmm gloves, I know I'd need to be 'on it' with Gary (The Sloth) Hobson on the pitch.
Grim yet (in retrospect) hilarious days.
In actuality with breaks, good management and a large slice of luck pie the likes of Rust, McDougald, Minton, Allan, McGarrigle would be in the same legendary bracket as Paul Kitson and the like.
But... it wasn't to be.

My word, those really were rose tinted specs you were wearing. As much as l enjoyed those times, (for the adversity as much as anything else), that team was pretty awful.

This is true - I would estimate that less than 5% of NSC's regular users have anything more than a passing interest in the U-23s/U-18s.
When Steven Alzate moved on loan to Swindon last week, someone posted on here that they had never heard of him. Likewise when Max Sanders was named as a sub for the FA Cup quarter-final last season.
I realise that the main focus will always be on the first team, but I am surprised by the general apathy shown by the Albion fanbase to the academy, certainly compared to other clubs.
Yes. We are more like Chelsea than Cheltenham these days. It is what it is.
Dropped it, did he?
