Yeah I'll miss watching those academy games, was worth getting to Ealing early on matchday. Was nice to try and spot a few potential future stars. I reckon a few Northern clubs had their scouts there doing the same thing!
Added to the sense that we were a club with the youngsters playing an early game and the first team following them.
