Good signing for them, they've appointed a manager who is in his early 30s so they'll be my second county team that I hope do well and take an interest in this year.

England u19s win Euros with Carney Chukweumeka. Didn't he play for our Academy before going to Villa via Cobblers.

Thought that was his brother Caleb??

Shame he left us, even Joel himself had no idea why he was dropped by Peaks. Was nice to see him supporting the lads at the cup final though.

Sounds like Luke Fairlamb played as a trialist for (you guessed it) Tamworth yesterday.

One of our ex players who hasn’t gone to Tamworth?!

At a risk of taking the topic off topic again, shows once again the lack of contacts AP has.

To be fair Fairlamb was impressive for St Ives last season so it makes sense that a former manager may want to bring him in, it's the beauty of non league football and how the players grow, a player can be average in his first spell then come back for a second spell and be highly thought of.

I would imagine taking some decent quality but cheap options to Tamworth would mean they can spend a little more elsewhere in the team.
