Just shown our 5 goals which the U18's scored last week away at Man Utd, some very good goals.

Looking really good, should be up by another goal or 2 really. Can tell this is a much stronger, more experienced squad than we have been fielding recently with both Glennon and Benson back in there. A shame we couldn't field this team against runaway leaders Leeds to see where we really stand at this level.
Richardson looking back on it, quality first touch and movement. Can't be long before we see Gomez Mancini given some minutes, looks a level above this again. Nartey commanding too and good on the ball at left centre back, another clearly better than this level (obviously given his League 1 experience).
The trialist at right back has been decent too, made some good contributions going forwards. Bird mentioned he may look familiar to some viewers but can't say I recognise him myself.

1-1, poor ball out by Richter who didn't cover himself in glory defending the cross either.

We were linked with a Chalmers from Dundee but think he was an attacker, not a right back.

Logan Chalmers is at Dundee United but he’s, as you say, a winger.

Only thing we can tell from watching is that the trialist goalscorer is under 18 and that the right back is over 18.

Only saw the last 20 minutes. terrible feed.
Missed the 2nd goal and could hardly see the 3rd.
Seriously thinking about cancelling my subscription now, it's nearly Spring and I shouldn't be indoors on a sunny Monday afternoon.

Could have been, would have to watch back and compare the pictures on Hastings website to the stream. Would make sense of the back of Benn Ward.

Looking through the Blackburn Under 18s and Under 23s the only similar looking player I can find is Dan Pike, but he's played most of their PL2 games this season so would possibly rule that out?

Actually it may be Stefan Mols having a better look at pictures. Though he's apparently a midfielder. Spanish, recently back from loan at CF Intercity in Valencia.
