Mister Chops 7 Posted October 28, 2008 Do you mean players who came through the youth/academy team?That''s tough.Green in goalEadie left wingSutton in attackI think Fox might have come through the youth team but he may also have been a junior binner.I''d like to avoid picking Carey, Sutch, Spillane, Jarvis & Jarvis etc but can''t find any alternatives right how...

You''ve got Sutch on the bench and at left back. You''ve got Sutch. Eadie is on the right, yet Forbes is on the left. Mills is playing centre half while Kenton is at right back. Llewellyn in the centre of the park? No Andy johnson? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Rudolph Hucker 0 Posted October 28, 2008 You''ll need Arrdee for this one because you will need to go way back to form a side.Clive Payne from Aylsham.Danny Mills from Norwich.Justin and John Fashanu from Attleborough.Dale Gordon from Caister.Arrdee, what about Bertie Fitt from Gressenhall, didn''t he play outside right for Swaffham and Watton before a single appearence at The Nest before war service in Aden after which he became a priest and left the beautiful game for 40 years of devoted service as the vicar of St. Roland at Saham Toney where he was dismissed after he told off a choirboy who caught his bits in a bellrope?

bradley11 0 Posted October 31, 2008 Bellamy Was At Briston Rovers Academy And Then Bradford PA (Park Avenue) Before Coming To Norwich Surely This Means Hes Not Homegrown? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Simon 0 Posted October 31, 2008 Can''t manage a full XI, but I''d say Rob Green, Darren Kenton, Darren Eadie and Craig Bellamy have been the best of a bad bunch since I started watching (about 1998). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Yellowbeagle 0 Posted October 31, 2008 [quote user="bradley11"]Bellamy Was At Briston Rovers Academy And Then Bradford PA (Park Avenue) Before Coming To Norwich Surely This Means Hes Not Homegrown?[/quote]I''m not sure of his history before playing for our youth team, but he was definetely part of our youth set up before breaking into the reserves and first team. Alot of players switch between academy set ups. But for me as long as he played a decent run of matches for the youth team and they didnt decide to release him, then they have played a role in his development.
