I like the look of Miller from the tiny bit I've seen of him. He seems to be developing quite nicely as well. Let's hope he keeps progressing and forces his way into first team squad. I know it's silly so be kind but he reminds me a bit of TF

Ryan Burke didn't get off the bench for Yeovil in their defeat.
Trueman and Seddon played for Wimbledon in their defeat, Trueman no chance with either goal, Seddon couldn't repeat his goalscoring debut but saw him put a delicious cross in from the left on the highlights.
Hutton playd the 90 for Stevenage in their defeat (I'm seeing a pattern here )

If Bela is not doing it then Amari Miller would be a good option. Jobe appears to be making good progress. What's happened to baby Zigic (Andrews)?

Andrews is the main u23 striker after the loans out. Jobe making steady progress. Suprised Miller has not been given a chance after pre season but wouldn’t be suprised if he got a chance. Playing a lot of football for both youth teams. Seems like he’s playing as many games as possible. Did well in pre season and hope he gets a chance this year.

As far as I am aware Jobe wouldn't be allowed in games as he wasn't 15 when the season officially started?

I think his Birthday was September. I guess we can look forward to him being thrust into the 2021/22 squad and they are bound to debut him ready or not so it causes widespread panic amongst the big six and maybe one will shit themselves and offer £10m after a couple of games.
At least we know he can't leave for Dortmund this coming June.

Birmingham u23 5 Sheff Utd u23 1
Andrews with 2 and Soldevila scores again. It's depressing that the route to the first team is blocked by an unambitious buffoon of a manager.

Some under 18s played today. Good experience and definitely good progress.

Think Spooner has been hammering it home to them that they're playing for their futures.

Need to get a few out on loan either now or in the summer. Some talented lads but need the challenge and experience of first team football.

The U23s score another 3 goals. That's 36 goals in 15 games.

Rico Brown transfer to West Ham off with Blues asking for more money than West Ham were willing to give for the highly promising youngster. Good on blues.
Jayden Reid returns to Blues after his loan spell to Walsall was cut short after only a single appearance. After the way they treated Adam George (no appearances at all) I did say I wouldn't send any of our youngsters to Walsall and so it proved.

Tate Campbell has gone on loan to Bromley. National for a couple of months isn’t bad.

Our U23's have just beaten Wigan U23's 11-1, after going 1-0 down. Well done to all involved, but I fear this may not be good for Bubba's health in the long run.

To sone of those lads involved in the 11-1 win it will put them in the shop window for contracts with other teams. A few of those aren’t going to make it at championship level but being part of the squad which made the under 23 play offs will mean they have suitors at league 2 and conference level.

The U23s have finished top goalscorers. Maybe we should get the striking coach to take shooting practice with the first team.

Saw this on Rico Browne, looks like he’s a ball playing centre half. It might explain why we let Redmond et al go.

My youngest lad showed me one of our under 14’s is attracting the attention of the Premier League big hitters. Surely parents and lads need to look at the way the club treated Jude and concentrate on football at our club. It also proves that being a Cat 1 academy serves as no deterrent to big clubs poaching our talent pool.

Josh Andrews going out to Rochdale on loan. Hopefully it’s more successful then his last loan as a full season will do him good.

New u23 goalkeeper in Archie Matthews after he left Swindon this summer. Been training for a while but now done on a 1+1 deal. Probably be the 3/4th choice for the first team as well having had playing experience.

Noticed our U11 coach Tom Quinn has left and joined them over the dark side.
Don't know much about him but not a good look

Under 23s finally off the mark in the league beat Sunderland 1-0 Des Rois scoring.
Etheridge, Castillo and Graham all played so won’t be playing tonight.

Could maybe start a new youth thread?
Bubbs is usually the finger on the pulse?
