I don't think anyone called Lash a superstar.

I'm not saying he is a superstar, just commenting on his junior career after watching (and often reffing) him for 8 years.
If I had a penny for everytime I have had to tell him to gently put down the player he was tackling I could afford to buy a pint at the LSV (and that is a lot of pennies! )

I'm curious. Is this your default position when it comes to our young lads? I can't decide whether you're doing a wind up every time you comment or whether you just think they're all crap. You certainly [iseem[/i to think they're all crap.

No I do not! I just call it as I see it. At this level performances in the academy means absolutely nothing. It is the performances in the first team that count.
I support the lads to the hilt on the pitch, but if there play poorly or lack the ability or physique required to make it at Saints, I'm not scared of saying so.

I agree, everytime a young lad makes his debut there is talk of him being a superstar and the next "XYZ". Its embarrasing, and only causes trouble when the lad inevitably has a bad game, and the fans get on his back.
Steve Tyrer is the ultimate example of this.
Let the young lads come in at thier own pace - dont heap any more pressure on them before they even play for the first team.

Matty Smith & Scott Moore - both hailed as the next "someone".
I remember Scott Moore being called the "next Alex Murphy" in his early days.

You might be right. He certainly looks like he's developed alot since he was last with us.

| Quote: saints35 bulls0 "Matty Smith'" Only by St Conroy, he did quickly take over Moore as he faltered, but it wasn't long before people realised Eastmond was going to eclipse him. Quote: saints35 bulls0 "I remember Scott Moore being called the "next Alex Murphy" in his early days.'" Moore was bound to have high expectations, after all he was the youngest ever SL player when he made his debut and , to be fair to him, he seems to (rumour has it) have got things back on track over at fartown.
Tyrer was hailed a future great before he'd even debuted. I think most people learnt a lesson from that.
