    Akworth will be pleased. He always wanted us to sign his father.
  • Swisdom nails it.
    He has little fear when he plays, always looking to do the best he can.
    Surely these are unprecedented times when it comes to Academy signings.
    It seems to be deliberate policy.
  • unprecedented in what way Seth ?

    He is the son of Danny.  Central midfielder.  One could refer to him as combative and tenacious but can also play a bit.    Not the biggest but has more than enough heart in him!

    In honesty I'd be surprised to see him in the reckoning for the first team any time soon
     I know height was always an issue on here, but posterior?? Come on

    I really like that we're signing so many of these kids up. Not all of them will make it in professional football, and even fewer at Charlton, but this guarantees them a couple of years to prove themselves, and gives the club some security should one break out and bigger clubs come calling. 
  • still no official news on Kone?

    No, only the unofficial news that he’s signed for a club in Qatar.

    That leaves Myers as the only other u18 second year we don’t know about.

    Saves buying a player I suppose ….
  • I think that is right.
    Footballers have to start somewhere, and what is the point of an academy system if it isn’t to produce first team players?
    The challenge is management and balance.
