Back to Eccleston, this is off Gedo - who is quite reputable - on Rawk:


Eccleston IS UNDER CONTRACT,and can't spit his Dummy out when he feels like it,he was suspended for 3 days last week,for refusing to play for the Academy team,the Reserves play only 20 odd games a season,Rafa told him that although he was at Melwood,getting a game for the Reserves would be limited and told him he should make himself available for Academy Games,i don't know what all the fuss is about,Eccleston won't make it at Liverpool,although younger, Lauri Delle Valle is head and shoulders above him!!!!

Joe Kennedy has had a trial with Wigan.
Shane O'Connor had a trial at Stockport.
Nathan Eccleston had a trial at B'burn.

Steve Cooper has been hired to work with the 6-11 year olds after B'burn took Iain Brunskill from us.

I will update stats and tables later today.

Suprised with that. Cant see him making it at all as a footballer.
Sounds harsh but it's just an honest assesment.

Table & Stats have been updated.

Team News:

Kacaniklic could return at the weekend after hamstring problems.
Pepper could also return at the weekend after picking up a groin strain.

Hughie may decide to hold them back for a week ahead of the Mancs game.

how has Ince been playing?

how has Ince been playing?

Very well. He has a sweet left foot and is like his dad in the tackle. He is similar to Ecclestone in his playing style imo

Blackburn target Arsenal youngster Jason Banton as new 'David Bentley'
By Alan Nixon 13/10/2008

Blackburn boss Paul Ince is set to win the race for Arsenal's fiery young England youth international striker Jason Banton - and do a 'David Bentley' with him.

The top Gunner has had a fallout with the club's hierarchy and has decided to leave - for a second time - with Ince ready to snap up the 16-year-old who is also wanted by Manchester City.

Banton is desperate to be a success and left Arsenal when he was younger before heading for rivals Tottenham.

But he felt he was not making enough progress and has quit the Emirates set-up again.

The move has echoes of Blackburn's swoop for Bentley when he was an Arsenal rebel.

He went on to make the England team and was sold for £17million.

Ince's talent-spotting staff are going to take on Banton - and are also after Liverpool's young striker Nathan Eccleston.
