This thread has got me thinking about names and faces from when i used to watch academy games.
What ever happened to Darryl Cardiss? David Whittle? Michael Whitehead? just to name a few that have popped in my head in the last 10 mins.

He was on a Wigan scholarship but moved to Leeds academy when he was 15 / 16. |

Certainly some good players on that list,
No surprises on how good Briscoe has been for us this year, think most knew his quality and was unfortunate with your lot to be stuck behind Radlinski. Not sure on why FC released him and their fans still say that was the worst decision there club has made on retention in recent years.
The big surprise for me was how good Colburn has been for us, I wasn't particualary inspired when I heard he was coming but he has been absolute top drawer. Maybe not the fastest in terms of a winger but is the hardest runner and driver of a ball in our team. Constantly makes 10 -15 yards from his own line and supports well. Would be really disappointed if we lost him for any reason.

Gareth Dean used to play for Celtic, I'm sure he was in our academy/reserves. Dean Gaskell - Widnes, How about John Whittle? Where did he end up?
