Positive meeting re the Academy last night from Gaz Carvell, Tim, Russ, Mike & thanks to the Academy & 1st team players for attending, understand fans with youngsters the evening is not good with school next day, so looking at possibly having a get together pre/post game on Good Friday with Gaz to look how fans can help the Academy going forward.
Lot discussed re academy looking to see if we could get a sponsor or each of the lads sponsored for their kit.
Also, foundation & academy working together now aim to try & recruit from M60 area with future players made up of 75% local lads. Foundation go into all schools etc so ideal to work with academy to pick local talent up.

Are you Lance Todd by any chance?

cripes (to quote Boris): is that the same back pocket used by BOTH of them to keep us going?

Oh grow up
and
learn to spell "have"

An update on Gaz Carvell's request to support the Academy, who incidentally had a fantastic win at weekend.
There is already a Supporters Trust, Forever Reds, which has been dormant over the last 2/3 years, but due to Gaz's interest, fans are looking at resurrecting & rebranding the Trust, as it is an official body, to assist the Academy.
If anybody is interested in getting involved you will be more than welcome, & a new committee will be formed.
Still looking at having a get together after the Catalans game on Good Friday to discuss what we, as fans can do to help the Academy,
Please share the post

Hi Shirl
Thanks for the update, I'm definitely up for being involved, however, due to location and other commitments, cannot be considered as a potential main committee member.

Won't be there on Good Friday as up in God's Country with the junior devils, but look forward to hearing more!!
