    Thanks for that, interesting. I gather the penny may have dropped, but I don't know how many received the memo, and am still waiting to see any changes with my own eyes.

    I've long found it weird how players, even at the highest level won't even do the very basics with the weaker foot, resulting in corners being given away instead of clearing upfield and even kicking the ball in their own nets. Then so many players insist on using the outside of the favoured foot all the time when passing, when the instep of the other foot would likely be more accurate and with a better controlled weighting. (more effective but not as spectacular).

    I think he was banned from several other forums before, didn't learn anything from it apparently.

    It was the Politics forum before. He was allowed back if he stayed here.

    Eh, I'd still rather have him here discussing stuff, life's less fun if we're all in agreement, and he brings a different perspective that I like to consider, abrasive or not.

    With you Juni.

    He can rub you up the wrong way but it's his way of expressing his thoughts that you are welcome to agree or not to agree with.

    I've enjoyed having The Guardian on the forum for all these years. Some people have to put up with him and if it us and his football thoughts so be it :D

    The Guardian is obviously an acquired taste and when he sticks to football he is worth reading. However he has been warned numerous times about his aggressive behaviour, name calling and other things. He was given a final warning by the higher up moderators near to the end of last year. They were prepared to ban him then because of his actions. So I can't really do anything now. It is up to the main mods on the site to decide if he is allowed back.

    Along with Oscar Massey there is also Brandon Pursall. Not sure if he’s been mentioned, apologies if so.

    I'm guessing he'll be back in some form.

    Honestly though, the stuff about embracing different perspectives is a total red herring. You could take any two commenters here and they'll probably have disagreed a number of times, but nobody else indulges in that sort of relentless needling or posts the same thing seventy-three times just to get a reaction, nobody else turns every minor difference of opinion into at least a three-page running battle, and nobody else tries repeatedly to chase off "newbies" from a public forum, who might have something to add themselves. If he could just agree to disagree when an argument is clearly played out, then perhaps he wouldn't keep getting banned all over the place.

    He's pretty knowledgeable on the young talents even if I don't think I've ever agreed with one thing he said about football. Never been my problem though, I disagree with other ppl on here and I enjoy debating about it, I just find him extremely annoying and rude in the way he expresses his opinions.

    Thank you. I've been trying to figure out what tournament they are at, and couldn't find anything. Much appreciated

    Who do you reckon was missing from us? Only Forson as far as I can tell. I'd also say Max Hudson but I haven't seen him for a year, so don't even know if he's at the club, though I'd be surprised if we released him based on his appearances at Riga

    IG, when I read what you write on the spurs forum, your knowledge of u16 downwards is not like the olders so here’s some information. Besides the Norwegian keeper, a Latvian keeper now u16 has been signed for scholarship year also after trailing near to the end of last season. Trouble for Tim and Toby. By the way Toby hasn’t really played well since u13/14s. (I noticed u call him highly rated). Donnay and Max have been released since April and that’s when Omari did what he did at West Ham and walked out hoping another club will buy him so there’s your answer to where he is. Where he’s going, no one knows at this point. Also 2 u16s have been told they can leave but it’s not my place to bait their names. You will find out somehow or another though

    Didn't no Max got released he was good what are Tottenham doing over there a lot of their best players leaving, Noni, Marcus and players like Reo having second thoughts but these Academies don't surprise me.

    Didn't no Forson left either,Found this about Forson.
