Allowing the youngsters to express themselves, a good balance between team performances and what the academy exists for, feeding players into the 1st team. There’s also a train of thought within the game that you learn by failing - Don’t get me wrong I want to win every game I’m involved in...

His been on a fast-track program and is almost done, worth noting that he does already in-fact have the qualification to coach at academy/23s level, what I meant was in terms of experience in that his only taken less then a handful of games as a coach on his own and that’s been in the Sussex...

Crofty still needs to complete his badges, but is a real people person, likes talking to the players walking them through senarios on where to improve, where they had options etc. I think he will do well, but maybe get a Mark Beard or Ben Smith in alongside him. But to answer your questions...

Andy Crofts will take charge until end of season:albion2::albion2:

Whoop! 5-1

4-1 to Spurs, Jack Spong with a cracker for us, this is another lad that has great potential, but being held back.

Anyway's my thoughts here are that having a 37 year old playing academy football, is simply blocking a youngsters pathway!
