Really want Troy to find a home and fulfill his potential. I feel the club has to let him go at this stage. and likel h e same with Harvey who is too good to be an also ran not involved in matchday squads in the first team squad here.
As Troy has a contract to 2025, the club may be tempted to roll the dice one more time. Harvey, I think, has only one year left; so a sale feels inevitable.

1-0 up. Santiago.

Ball played out from the back. White to Soonsup-Bell from left back to the halfway line, Soonsup-Bell plays in Santiago first time who's running from the left and he breaks free running full pelt towards the Newcastle goal, rounds the keeper and slots into an empty net. Great goal.

Is Santiago a real prospect for us now? Felt for so long that everyone thought he’d get released but now seems to be scoring every game and looks super tidy on the ball from what highlights I’ve seen too.

Well this is only the second game of the season and yes he's scored in both, which is obviously good but it's still only two games.

He was okay last season, scored seven goals for the U21s, but who knows, he may be a late bloomer.

Should be 2-0, Donley misses a sitter. Another steam train run from Dorrington from centre back right through the middle of the pitch, gets to the edge of the box, plays it out wide right, Dorrington receives it back on the byline, passes it to Donley who is on the edge of the six yard box who puts it wide.

2-0. Soonsup-Bell.

We break away with Santiago with the ball who plays it out to Donley on the left who then plays a great low-cross to Soonsup-Bell who slides in at the far post to make it 2-0.

That’s a great youth XI

I’m glad they’re letting Phillips get football next to Dorrington. Build a partnership!

I’d love those two guys to come through simultaneously. Both are good enough to make it IMO. Lack absolutely no attribute to become top CB’s, just experience and know how at the higher levels. Both really good prospects

Love watching Dorrington bring the ball out from the back, I so hope he can break through to the first team.
