    Is Roddy from our youth team or was he signed after another club released him?

    So far been impressed with Deji, Claydon, Morgan and DJ. Dobson has been ok but has been a bit far up the pitch a couple of times and out of position

    Yes, and the Celtic TV one is even further ahead. We lost 3-1 btw

    Pretty sure he was signed after his dad became a director at the club!

    Signed for the 23s from some school near Reading. Not got a clue how our scouts spotted such a gem.....

    Was at Southampton but was released and was at Barnfield College.

    Had a trial with us at the end of last season.

    So are we right assuming it’s Roddy’s son?

    Jacob Roddy, young defender starting today. Son of Ged Roddy.

    Don't think its been said but assume it is.

    He was at Southampton so must have had something about him.

    Not looked out of place today.

    I think he know’s him from his time at Reading - same as Gunter, Adkins and anybody else who has walked through reading high street.

    Yeah I’ve just assumed they’re related and therefore Jacob is only with us for nepotistic reasons - basically built him a villains backstory. Could be bollocks and the two are unrelated!

    The fact he's come from Southampton and not some obscure team from non league, is a good sign to me.

    Dembele looks dangerous for Celtic, capped by both England & Scotland at youth level.

    Could be bollocks. Extremely unlikely however

    2-0 - I’d probably take a point at this stage.

    0 - 2

    That's it.

    We're going down, Adkins is clueless, Sandgaard sort it out, all Gallen's fault wibble, wobble

    Deji our CB looks good. Where did he come from ?

    Just read that this Dembele kid made his debut for Celtic's U20 side at the age of 13!!

    Been in our youth academy since u13 level. Nicked him from Palace. He's 17 years old. Looked pretty solid in all fairness and a big lad

    Dobson looks like a CB in midfield. Hopefully he’s just rusty

    In the youth cup game that was televised at the end of last season I thought Elerewe, and the guy who played along side him that day Bakrin, were two stand out players.

    I think Bakrin is playing second half.

    Elerewe looks very promising. Will be interesting to see how his old partner Bakrin does next half.
