Really? It's a link to an old thread on NSC. Works fine for me.

Good. It still didn't here!

I'm sure it was great though.

Albion U-18s drew 1-1 at home to Reading today (Albion's goal was an own goal).

U-16 Bode Newnham-Reeve made his full debut and fellow U-16 (and centre-back) Tobi Akapo made his debut as a substitute. Also making his debut as a substitute was U-15 Fraser Widdop.

Yeah, not featuring for the U-21s says a lot. Talent alone isn’t enoughplayers need the right mindset and chances to progress. That Luis Garcia case is a good reminder that early hype doesn’t guarantee success. Hopefully, Gorman finds the right path, wherever that may be.

Albion 2nd-year scholar Corbin Mthunzi has moved to Ipswich Town and signed a two-year professional contract.

He follows Josh Lewis who moved to the Tractor Boys in July last year.

I know of a couple of the U-16s who have been released - Harvey Boddy has signed with QPR and Aussie Pugh has joined Brentford, by the looks of it.

I guess Aussie Pugh was just having a trial with Brentford. For the last few days he has been playing for the Red Bull New York U-16s at the Generation Adidas Cup in Florida.
