Strange game. City were shockingly poor for 55 minutes. Should have gone 2 - 0 down. But then Barnsley ran out of gas & the young City lads took over. Idah''s third goal was brilliant ( & saved the centre back from being sent off)

Will need to play much better in the first half next round. Funny where have I seen that before in the last few days.

Have watched Adam since he was 13, Corinthians in Cork being one of the top youth sides, we played them many times and he was always head and shoulders above the rest on the pitch. Alex Minihane, also around 16 yrs old is another v bright prospect.

How can the future possibly be brighter?

The AGM revealed that the club is to become a feeder club for the EPL because the Suffolk Socialists will neither sell up nor put any money in. Were money to come in, we would not have to sell these young players to survive and they could benefit Norwich City. But, instead, they will be sold off as soon as a bid comes in and so Norwich City will cease to exist as a club in its own right.

It is an utter humiliation and shows that the current owners have no sense of pride whatsoever.

The future can only be brighter if they quit.

From today''s Pinkun

The Republic of Ireland youth international only joined the Canaries

as a first-year academy scholar in the summer but has already caught the

attention of supporters.

The 17-year-old scored a remarkable 10-minute treble in

Tuesday night’s 4-1 victory over Barnsley for City’s under-18s in the FA

Youth Cup third round – teeing up a home tie against Manchester United

or Derby County in January.

With first team head coach Daniel Farke and sporting

director Stuart Webber in attendance, the Irish youngster took his tally

to nine goals in 12 games for the U18s this season.

“It’s really exciting for me and for everyone else that the

first team coach was watching and we put in a second half performance

like that,” Idah said. “It was really good, we’re feeling great.”

Signed from College Corinthians, in his home county of

Cork, Idah previously had a trial with Aston Villa. He scored eight

goals in 10 games for the Ireland U17s and has recently won three U18

caps.

“Basically I was just playing locally back in Ireland and

one of the scouts came to watch one of my games and I scored a hat-trick

in one of those games,” the Canaries prospect continued.

“I came over here on trial and played against Peterborough

and scored a hat-trick in my first game so they offered me a contract

and I was really happy to join.

“I scored a hat-trick recently as well against Azerbaijan

in the European qualifiers (for Ireland U17s), so hopefully I can

continue that and hopefully get more!”

so far queue pig mince !

This is where the future of our club is. Many of the PL clubs are even going abroad for their babies let alone seniors so there is a great opportunity for clubs such as us to grab these hopefully future first teamers.

But what is the point? The club is going to have feeder status only.

How are supporters meant to get excited about feeding the next young player to the EPL without us ever having a chance of getting, let alone remaining there???

It is as much is how they are helped to develop. Too many at PL clubs are simply signed up and almost left. And many are rushed into senior football to plug gaps.But it is a measure of the club''s commitment that we are still finding young players like this, and also that players are joining us... given the ''outpost'' ''we are in some senses.

The only thing that this club is committed to is being a social enterprise rather than a competitive professional football club. We see it in other ways too. Note the propaganda video at the AGM. I suppose it all stems from the socialist ideology of the owners.
