in defense of the trophy.

Haven't seen this mentioned yet, but the wee-tinies are into the FA Youth Cup semis for the second season in a row! It's a bit of a different bunch this year, even more tight-knit, and gods, I wish I had more time to follow this group, because when there are headlines on .tv like HEIGHWAY: THEY LOVE EACH OTHER, that's got to be some good stuff.

ryan flynn is SUCH a cutie. also, the highlights - that one blind pass by astrit for the second goal was so, so good. it's nice to see the new recruits&young lads do well after all that whinging about our youth set up; hopefully someone can make it? ray putterill seemed fantastic.

pinocho! ♥.

Gah, the wee ones make me so happy. I miss Paul Anderson; I hope we get to see him play for the first team at some point. ;_;

[windsor]

me too. ;_; at least adam hammill and his jester hat are tearing it up in scotland, apparently. srsly, i just hope SOMEONE from the academy makes it here.

[of_doom]

Haha, you'll have to explain the jester hat to me. :x

It kills me to see former youth players shipped off to the Championship, or to Scotland/etc., but at the same time that's only to be expected. I had high hopes for Barragan (nnngh, Depor, WHYYY), although there is still a chance that he'll be back in 2008?

also. holy fuck. propaganda has 202 (!!!!) photos of the match up. i. d. rawcliffe, ilu.

[windsor]

i'll stop spamming you now, but. sleeve-clutching! also, he has the best eyebrows.

[of_doom]

he looks like every grade school crush I ever had. :( :( :((((

[of_doom]

pps. Hansen is af;dkjfsdlf WHAT FINE DANISH STOCK, YEAH?

[windsor]

UH YES. THE COLORING. THE FACIAL STRUCTURE. 'sup, hottie.

[niche]

um. scuse me while i interrupt to say that alkdhflkaj LOLLL hansen looks exactly like what i envisioned portia from the merchant of venice to look like. and am i the only one who thinks that flynn looks like seventeen year old xabi alonso with a bowl cut? (much like how stevie g looked at seventeen with his bowl cut.)

[of_doom]

Ahaha, they all look irrevocably British, is what. LOLZ at teenage Stevie, though.

[windsor]

bowl cuts rule. you know it's true. :x and wrt: flynn, i see it too! i'm not sure why; the coloring, maybe - or maybe he's just bringing back memories of xabi's shitty haircut at the beginning of last season, lasd;fjdf oh noes.
