good luck ash! hope he fulfills the potential shown in the reserve and youth teams. get him on the 7 man bench few sub appearences maybe start him in the jpt

New deal signed and sealed.

Now it's time for young Ashley to "put up or shut up" ..... in the words of the great man himself!

Thanks, I was pretty sure it was required, but silly law do things differently to everyone else, and it's beginning to confuse me.

Grammar Nazis/religious extremists - is the capitalisation of 'Old' in Old Testament necessary?

Absolutely. It's a proper noun.

Fair enough!

For what it's worth, I think the capitalisation is necessary.

Can we pin this quote from brucie for this time next season.

Personally I would keep Atieno - he will score more goals than Jarvis thats for sure.

What I mean by it is, those lads of 18+ have been signed on since we brought back our youth and reserve sides. They were the 14 and 15 year olds Plymouth, Exeter and Yeovil didn't want. So the likelihood of them then making it as first team regulars in my opinion is extremely slim. We have seen nothing from Halpin, Yeoman, Palmer and that group (the 18-20 year olds) to suggest even remotely otherwise.

The youth we have now from the 13 year olds up to the current young pro's just getting to 16/17 are the ones that in a few years might actually make the grade.

Well done to Yeoman, nothing like home grown talent.

I'd argue had we been puddling along in mid table the likes of Yeoman and Halpin might have got a better look in last year. But the more succesful we were the more Lingy had to play the tried and trusted to keep us up there.

Bit harsh that statement, anyone over 18+ is currenlty a waste of time.

I am slightly surprised he's been kept on, 2 sub apps in about 4 years? 20 years old now and when we were chasing a game we sooner put Ellis up there than put Yeoman on.

Stay by my original thoughts, all the youth that are 18+ are a waste of time at the moment.

Got a feeling he will be moving on brucie. No harm having Yeoman as 4th choice with the loan system if needed. Not like we have money to burn is it!

Got us 5th this year!
