Gillies Downs Leeds Posted August 31 Share Posted August 31 Looks as though academy striker Billy Phillips has joined Bath City on loan. In the starting line up today. Good loan for him if he gets the minutes on the pitch. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tony Tootle Posted August 31 Share Posted August 31 Think he’s got 3 in his last 3 for our u21s. Should be a good experience for him, didn’t do Conway and various others any harm. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you know if the club have made any announcement ? or is this a case of the younger age groups again being overlooked with regards to the fan base being updated on their progress and development?

It's intangible but it benefits the club to give fans an opportunity to be informed about what's coming through. On Billy, I really like him. Clever little player, plays between the lines well and has a decent touch and low centre of gravity to win fouls etc. Think he needs some mens football to learn how to deal with some whacks etc, but there's a player in there if we get it right with his loans and development. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Might be why he has grown the beard. And I had a beard at uni at the age of 18, so a little less prejudice against the more hirsute amongst us would be welcome!

Not sure the acne is the reason for the beard but being tired of shaving as he has a 5 o'clock shadow on waking every morning. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Casa-Grande is only a month I’d guess in order to cover the absence of Harvey Wiles-Richards who was sent off at the weekend. i may be wrong but it seems a strange coincidence otherwise 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wait to be advised why I am wrong, but did HWR not get the ball? I think he did, but his other foot seemed to follow through quite high up. The challenge that led to the HH player being sent off just after was a shocker. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
